@movq@www.uninformativ.de I lasted for a long time.. Not sure where or when it was “got”. We had been having a cold go around with the kiddos for about a week when the wife started getting sicker than normal. Did a test and she was positive. We tested the rest of the fam and got nothing. Till about 2 days later and myself and the others were positive. It largely hasn’t been too bad a little feaver and stuffy noses.

But whatever it was that hit a few days ago was horrible. Like whatever switch in my head that goes to sleep mode was shut off. I would lay down and even though I felt sleepy, I couldn’t actually go to sleep. The anxiety hit soon after and I was just awake with no relief. And it persisted that way for three nights. I got some meds from the clinic that seemed to finally get me to sleep.

Now the morning after I realized for all that time a part of me was missing. I would close my eyes and it would just go dark. No imagination, no pictures, nothing. Normally I can visualize things as I read or think about stuff.. But for the last few days it was just nothing. The waking up to it was quite shocking.

Though its just the first night.. I guess I’ll have to see if it persists. 🤞

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I’m also on the e-mail wagon here. On http://darch.dk/timeline/conv/oe3howa I have added a “Comment via email” botten if uses are not logged in. This feature could be extend to other places in the various UIs. Like we already got the “Does not follow your” / “Follow you” on the profile page in yarnd, so this detection could be used to sugget the user to email that person, when mentioning them.

@eapl.me@eapl.me Which problems are those? 🤔

The only “advanced” Tetris I played back then was “Block Out”:

Except it didn’t run nearly as smooth as in this video. 😅

I’ve been thinking of how to notify someone else that you’ve replied to their twts.

Is there something already developed, for example on yarn.social?

Let’s say I want to notify https://sour.is/tiktok/America/Denver.txt that I’ve replied to some twt. They don’t follow me back, so they won’t see my reply.

I would send my URL to, could be, https://sour.is/tiktok/replies?url=MY_URL and they’ll check that I have a reply to some of their twts, and could decide to follow me back (after seeing my twtxt profile to avoid spam)

Another option could be having a metadata like
follow-request=https://sour.is/tiktok/America/Denver.txt TIMESTAMP_IN_SECONDS
that the other client has to look for, to ensure that the request comes from that URL (again, to avoid spam)
This could be deleted after the other .txt has your URL in the follow list, or auto-expire after X days to clean-up old requests.

What do you think?

So now that I have a basic Twtxt form, I can also update my feed even when I am not on my PC.

@johanbove@johanbove.info Sounds interesting. It is only for reading or also posting?

@New_scientist@feeds.twtxt.net No it isn’t. The prejudice that playing board games is indicative of general intelligence is passe, outdated.

Building a Twtxt Gui with some JS and HTML as an example application.

@prologic@twtxt.net I feel like my kid is a better weather predictor than most weather sites. He freaks out whenever the pressure drops and we know a storm is coming 😆

@xuu@txt.sour.is Right now they’re laying the groundwork for uncritical belief in the power of #AI, so the next step will be accepting the magical incantations as if they were real.

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t know but I don’t want it!

@eapl.me@eapl.me are ISPs still injecting code into HTTP in this the year 2023? I remember getting notices that my comcast modem is out of date pushed into websites back a decade ago.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci predicting weather is literally a step up from the 3 body problem into n-body chaos. AI is just statistics pushed up into chaos. The future of computing is indistinguishable from magical incantations

lovely autumn evening here on twtxt

@New_scientist@feeds.twtxt.net no it can’t. Your blurb is literally “if we had data we can’t have, we could predict weather better”. DeepMind is irrelevant in that statement–anyone could.

@New_scientist@feeds.twtxt.net fuck off with this nightmare.

I think is part of the code by @eapl.me@eapl.me that I have based my project on. So try to ask him.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I think we’re 90 meters above sea level or thereabouts. Pretty far north in the US though.

I just backed up my twtxt.txt data on a medium that will last for years if treated well: 4 sheets of paper.

@prologic@twtxt.net Perhaps we should add a meta flag to Twtxt to stop indexation by ChatGPT and consorts? I already use robots.txt for this.

@prologic@twtxt.net “who could possibly forget that” you could, apparently lol

@prologic@twtxt.net Any of these work? https://gadgetstouse.com/blog/2023/05/15/bypass-ad-blockers-not-allowed-on-youtube/

Hop, j’ai modifié mon script qui me permet de publier sur mon #twtxt et sur mastodon pour qu’il ajoute un lien vers une pièce jointe au besoin. Merci arpinux pour l’image listant les biais cognitifs

Reading the backlog of my twtxt posts and it’s nice to be able to just delete some outdated things by editing a simple txt file.

Upgraded my Twtxt feed to 2023 with the twtxt.net twthash extension.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Are the apps on F-Droid better?

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve even added the twthash message hash to my Twtxt bash CLI script so I can properly answer here.

@prologic@twtxt.net Cool to see you’re still here too.

Está muy meta, aunque bueno… Te invito a que tu también uses twtxt

@movq@www.uninformativ.de time to write your own browser? Or at least a fork maintained outside the EU?

@prologic@twtxt.net in the article they say they have a p99 of 15ms reading historical data. Which is pretty nuts.. Aside from having close to 900TB of SSD…

@prologic@twtxt.net curious that this feed has a image from a 3rd party domain.

@mckinley@twtxt.net you got some radiation issues? I am guessing this is non ECC rams.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I wish more standardization around distributed issues and PRs within the repo ala git-bug was around for this. I see it has added some bridge tooling now.

@prologic@twtxt.net I have seen these screen shots. But have not yet seen them in actuality. I use ublockOrigin. Maybe it gets these too unlike adblock.

For android I have revanced.. The only place I get ads is on TV. I haven’t found a replacement there.

@prologic@twtxt.net Newpipe on android continues to work fine

@bmallred@staystrong.run good thing i moved my run because no way i was going to be able to finish one after getting home around 0400. it was a fun night out with glenn and ash, but it may take a day or two to recover!

Oh okay, so Youtube is cracking down on “Ad Blockers”. Rightio. 🤔 And paying for Youtube Premium costs $14/month?! 🤯 Get fucked 🤣 I guess I won’t be using Youtube anymore. #Youtube #Ads #Premium #Suck

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that and malformed XML errors were hostile AF to users that came across them.

@phoronix@feeds.twtxt.net You get what you pay for?

@prologic@twtxt.net I do similar. Though probably much more simple.. I have CGNAT and use wireguard to VMs to punch through for stuff like HTTP/SSH from external.

And for SMTP I have smart hosts on the VMs that will store anf forward to my mailbox if the connection goes down.

@prologic@twtxt.net I find the L2 mode where you have one interface and multiple hosts to be tricky. Its best if you are trying to make a full mesh style. But then all hosts need to be able to see one another.

I have had more success using point-to-point connections where there are only two ends to each interface. It means you have a ton of interfaces and udp ports. but you can share the host IP across the interfaces. Add to that a simple router proto ala OSPF or RIP and you can navigate around not having a full meshnet.

I have dozens of localnet wireguard connections and many more connections to others that use bgp for route propagation.

@prologic@twtxt.net we need to finally break away from twtxt URLs and embrace @nick@server to webfinger lookups.

@prologic@twtxt.net what is the maxlen one should keep in mind here? Like say if I was charing the collected works of Shakespeare? Or maybe just a gpg keychain?

moved my yarn to a new server.. will see if it still has the slow cache issue.

Hmm when I said “Wireguard is kind of cool” in this twt now I’m not so sure 😢 I can’t get “stable tunnels” to freak’n stay up, survive reboots, survive random disconnections, etc. This is nuts 🤦‍♂️

I’ll shut down this instance soon, I want to say thanks to all of you, especially @prologic@twtxt.net . It’s been fun here, but I do not spend much time here anymore - cutting down on the things I host and use \ spend time on etc.

I’ve been using activitypub more - since it’s more or less replaced ‘x’ for me, and can be reached at:
@stigatle@activitypub.stigatle.no

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh wow nice autumn shot. I expected to see then silhouette of a witch flying on a broomstick

@prologic@twtxt.net

1. It’s criminal: Copilot was only possible because of massive theft of other peoples’ work (no compensation or even acknowledgement to any of the developers whose code was used to create Copilot)
   
2. It’s positioned to put software developers out of work or so fully de-skill them that they no longer know how to code anything but prompts (after which come corporate-justified salary and benefits decreases)
   

Don’t use it. No one should ever use it. You’re destroying your own future as a software developer by leaning on and supporting these things.
