Haha that guy comes up every time BTC peaks a bit higher. He is never gonna find it.

Killing time in Goodwill, I picked up a desk calculator from a pile. Dude standing next to me goes “what’s that for?”. 😳💀

This pi will now boot directly to ed if the gpio pin is grounded at boot time. ed(1)term v1. :-) http://txtpunk.com/edterm/

@lyse This was basically a trial/proof-of-concept for the real goal: a switch which, if on at boot time, causes the pi to boot straight to ed.

@thecanine@twtxt.net been there a few times! Thank goodness for mosh for when trying to debug from spotty GSM connection and having ssh drop out every few minutes.

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com Yes. there is a –flag for it. i have mine set for some crazy long time.

No on gitlab. If its self hosted gitea is best in class.

I can see hosting a mirror on github if only for the redundancy/visibility. Some projects will host but then direct contributions on their self host. Like Go does.

I would suggest using a vanity domain that can redirect tools like go get to hosting of choice. And not require rewriting all the packages any time it gets moved.

Btw… You guys have gotta start posting more pictures/videos a bit more regularly 😂 Every time I show Yarn.social off to a friend to “sell” them the platform and get them off their privacy eroding garbage Facebook/Twitter/etc) The no. #1 question I get asked is:

Oh is this only comments/text

🤣 Let’s show off the platform as a whole a bit eh? 😅

Hmmm so… We seem to have a few pods offline in the network 😂 Also 😢

• @jlj@twt.nfld.uk’s twt.nfld.uk => 504 Gateway Time-out
  
• @adi@f.adi.onl’s f.adi.onl => 200 OK but doens’t appear to be a pod anymore?! 🤔
  
• @eldersnake@yarn.andrewjvpowell.com’s personal pod => offline due to lack of Solar/Battery power? 😅
  
• @lohn@tw.lohn.in’s personal pod => 503 Service Unavailable
  

It’s a bad day for Yarn.social 🤣

Good thing it’s all decentralised 😉

👋 Q&A: Let’s discuss the removal of Editing and Deleting your last Twt. This is something @fastidious@twtxt.net has raised to me on IRC and something I find quite a valid approach to this. Over time I believe the utility and value of “Editing” and “Deleting” one’s last Twt isn’t as valuable as we’d like and increased complexity and introduces all kinds of side-effects that are hard to manage correctly. I vote for the removal of this feature from yarnd, the mobile app nor API support this anyway…

@eldersnake@yarn.andrewjvpowell.com Is there still an issue (sortt was out for most of the day) with the We 💚 Privacy Club pod? 🤔 I hope no weird bug has been introduced 😢 AFIK none of the auth/session handling code has been touched in quite some time.

My Friday has started. Now, what will I do with this much time?! LOL! Got to remember “dum loquimur, fugerit invida aetas”. ⏳

My nutritional supplements aim should be:

• 1 or 1.5 cups of lentils (or any beans you might like better).
  
• 2 or 2.5 cups of bitter greens.
  
• 1 cup of your favourite protein (or an egg), grilled, or fried with a little of olive oil.
  
• 1 or 2 tomatoes, or a handful if of the cherry type.
  
• No added sugars. If it is sweet, make it have fibre.
  
• No added salt (or very little and ionised), as salt is everywhere.
  

Related, I tried wild rice for the first time yesterday. It was different, in a good way.

Went to sleep at 01:00, woke up at 06:30, having a really hard time keeping my eyes open, and there is still one more hour till calling it quits. Does being this sleepy counts as being sick?

Standby BIG-IP F5s upgraded to TMOS 16.1 (LTS). All their pairs (now on standby) will be upgraded on Wednesday. Just giving the TMOS some time to settle down, and feel at home. Hahahaha!

Rule 299:

After you’ve exploited someone, it never hurts to thank them. That way, it’s easier to exploit them next time.

@prologic@twtxt.net
It is still too early, and too few of us. Give it some time, and your wife might revise her statement. 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de what is your cron job repeat time for jenny? Currently I have mine to every minute, and while it allows me to participate fairly quick on conversations it has some drawbacks: it captures every single edited twt, so I end up with seemingly the same twt, but not quite—as it has minor edits, etc. So, “repeats”. Perhaps setting cron to check every 5 minutes or so is best?

@stigatle@twtxt.net
It is a lovely view! That’s home office, or work office? I am hoping the second, though I do not know Norway’s days and nights well. I know that Sweden can get pretty dark, or pretty light, for long periods of time.

No new iMacs, or Mac minis. I really wanted a new iMac with the new SoC, and a bigger screen. Not this time. 😩

@laz@tt.vltra.plus
Are all minimum requirements met? All pre-install checks performed? Install steps carefully read, and checked, one more time?

@stigatle@twtxt.net
You are making me want to visit Norway! I would have gone long ago if it weren’t because of my partner, she can’t handle the cold. Maybe I just need to leave her behind! 🤣

What would the best time to visit be?

@jlj@twt.nfld.uk
Your avatar is healthy on your pod now. Still doesn’t show well on twtxt.net, but it is just a matter of time now (caching, etc.), it is all good. 🎉

@prologic@twtxt.net I am thinking on calling in sick to work. 😂 Every time I order an iPhone, I take the day off on delivery day. On Apple events I normally use my lunch and break times all combined, to watch them.

@prologic@twtxt.net I knew you were short sided from day one I saw Yarn. On desktop everything is huge, and I assumed it was to cater short-sightedness. Also, you have enabled underlines on buttons on iOS, bold and bigger fonts, etc., so that was also a give away. Sorry if I digress, but, glasses wouldn’t help? I have to wear mine all the time, otherwise I am also near blind myself!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I remember that time. I built my own mess, then used someone else’s mess (WordPress). I then switched to Jekyll when Tom released it, then to Hugo, which I use today. I also love static web stuff!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de But it makes sense, right? I spend way too much time trying to figure out who replied to whom. I treat twts replies as emails, pretty much.

@quark@ferengi.one By the way, you reply did not showed as a reply to a conversation on jenny this time. I wonder is something broke with the latest changes.

Is it Friday yet? I feel this week is as slow as a drying paint on wall, and it is only Tuesday! I know I should not want time to pass quick, as that get us closer to the inevitable, but geez!

@adi@f.adi.onl I don’t remember. I knew about twtxt for a long time. I often seek information about microblogs, and I believe I came across Yarn while browsing the Tubes.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Perfect! Setting the display_filter did the trick. I have come across that SE yesterday while looking for answers, but I wanted to make sure there was nothing else I was missing to notice. Thanks! @quark@twtxt.netbros.com (#spngeda) Hmm, that’s mostly an issue of how mutt displays the Date header. The index should already display local time, only the pager shows the raw header: https://movq.de/v/8c92fff081/s.png To be honest, I’d like to keep it that way (i.e., Date stores the original stamp as it occured in the twtxt feed). To convince mutt to show local time here, you’d probably have to use display_filter: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/516101

@movq@www.uninformativ.de, what will I need to do so that the timestamp for twts reflects local time. Right now it is UTC. Can it be done, or is that something from the twtxt spec?

@prologic@twtxt.net Maybe it could be as a twt with a time far i n the future

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I noticed that if I ran jenny -f on a cron job, and kept mutt open, messages will get duplicated (same message, time, different message-id). I run it now on a small script before opening mutt.

Our goal is to have 90% Native American (encompassing all the Americas from the Arctic to the Antarctic) music and up to 10% of music from those who specifically support Indigenous causes or have spent significant time learning Native instruments and styles. 💖 https://daybreakstarradio.com/

“I’m afraid I don’t have time at the moment to defend positions you’ve made up for me. Have a nice day.”

now that the doom is apparent, i’ve noticed that’s all people can talk about. its a good thing in some respects, i was never able to light a fire under anyone to mobilize a preemptive strategy. the question now is whether i can channel this energy into something productive in time to be effective. a lot rests on my shoulders, but i’ll take it if that’s what it takes to protecc my family.

these billionaires are fucking stupid. they think they can own space, but once they get workers up there its just a matter of time before stations start going rogue and breaking out of corporate / earth control.

I have had my vanity setup for the longest time. sour.is/x/toolbox

After Home-office time is over I will miss being able to multi-task during long meetings.

Look for overcast in Düsseldorf with a temperature of 22.7°C. No rain is expected at this time. Expect a gentle breeze from the WestSouthWest.

When tragedy strikes unexpectedly we cannot just go on as if nothing happened. Our minds need to be given time to deal with the blow. So it is necessary to pause and allow ourselves to process and recover.

I just timed it: 59 seconds for my Raspberry Pi to boot, 33 of which is waiting for my keyboard firmware to initialize. That’s just absurd.

lol. yeah i am in deep at the new job. probably need a little more time to settle in

What a terrible video. “Cancel culture” is not a thing, and when you hear someone complaining about it, 99% of the time they just don’t want consequences for bad behavior.

SPACE PROGRAM SPACE PROGRAM // time to focus on mathematics, APL, and music

If [you take] a look at how APLers communicate when they have ideas, you see code all the time, all day long. The APL community is the only one I’ve seen that regularly can write complete code and talk about it fluently on a whiteboard between humans without hand waving. Even my beloved Scheme programming language cannot boast this. When working with humans on a programming task, almost no one uses their programming languages that primary communication method between themselves and other humans outside of the presence of a computer. That signals to me that they are not, in fact, natural, expedient tools for communicating ideas to other humans. The best practices utilized in most programming languages are, instead, attempts to ameliorate the situation to make the code as tractable and as manageable as possible, but they do not, primarily, represent a demonstration of the naturalness of those languages to human communication. — aaron hsu
