@prologic@twtxt.net excellent, mate, that’s what we like to read! Enjoy the weekend!
Thanks, @thecanine@twtxt.net. It’s completely horizontal, I don’t see any diagonals. Anyway, it’s great art, happy drawing!
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Pretty sure I have many more mentions in the database than the one and only one I see hmmm 🤔 – I’ll have a look at the code when I can and the SQL query it’s using
@bender@twtxt.net interesting 🤔🤔
@bender@twtxt.net yayyyy!!!
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i think almost all of the code was written between 10pm-10am :3c
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org no, as mentioned this “diagonal arrow” eye shape, is usually used for a smug expression. The optional white part, is in this case, where the dogs sclera would be visible, while they have their eyes, like this.
Here is a comparison between a real dog, making the face it is based on, and the exaggerated drawn version.
Hahaha, @bender@twtxt.net, you’re just the best with the words! :-D I love it.
@thecanine@twtxt.net Yeah, what @bender@twtxt.net said. That tail is sick. Is this dog crying, though? The vertically elongated eye looks a bit like a tear running down.
@thecanine@twtxt.net super well done! I especially love that tail. I can almost see it moving!
Drawn based on a quick doodle, the canine returns victorious, from the battle of Hot Topic bargain bin, as smug as can be.
Whoever will be the first to inform him, the spikes aren’t real gold and it’s most likely not even leather, meaning it’s not what he’s really been searching the universe for, better prepare themselves, to be jumped on, bitten and shredded by claws.
@bender@twtxt.net Absolutely. My computer science teacher was really great and in a lot of aspects very similar. Especially combining the theoretical and practical parts. He’s also the main reason I ended up where I am today. I’m very grateful to him. Mr. Burger, however, takes this on a whole new level.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz hey, hey, good afternoon, happy Friday! Fandom site tag pages count. Word!
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz nope, not normal. Something birdy (because why to use fishy all the time?!) is going on.
good afternoon yarnverse i have done nothing productive so far. except edit my fandom site a little bit (i added tag pages!). does that count lol
@zvava@twtxt.net this is so cool…
@zvava@twtxt.net please be sure to get enough rest!!! you’ll be able to make something even better if you’re well rested :)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that’s an amazing way to teach, and one many old school (I remember my father telling me “schools need to teach both theoretical and practical skills!”) people will agree with. The fact that graduates need to learn on the job after they graduate exemplifies the importance of hands on.
Woooooaaaahh, that’s bloody amazing! I wish I’d had a teacher like that.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz The duck was in a darker spot, so my camera wasn’t all that happy with the lighting. Upon further inspection, you’re right, now that you pointed it out, I can see it too! The feathers do look like an oil painting. ;-)
@bender@twtxt.net Sadly, it’s super relevant. It’s a really good sketch. I’m actually surprised you know this German series. :-)
@zvava@twtxt.net Yeah, mentions are a great way to discover other feeds.
Regarding the “look at this, but I don’t want to add anything at all”, this never happened to me. Apparently, it seems to be a thing for others.

Woot, thank you! Using a config.json
like this:
{
"host": "localhost:31212",
"protocols": ["http"]
}
Indeed did the trick! I know it isn’t production ready, but I wanted to see with my own eyes, locally, how did it look. :-) I like where you are going! It is looking very nice, and polished. Can’t wait for an alpha, beta, and release!
@zvava@twtxt.net it is amazing how much you have accomplished in such a short time. Take time to sleep, though! :-)
we are now parsing and recursively fetching remote feeds somewhat successfully, gotta work on the media proxy and markdown way more, so so many fucky edgecases….my friend’s feed with like four posts parsed correctly so i tried this account’s feed and well now im not going to bed on time

@bender@twtxt.net ty for attempting to test, though, it means a lot! lmk if u find any more silly things i need to clarify or fix :> be prepared for everything breaking during beta :p

@bender@twtxt.net i also recently discovered there was a bug causing new users to initialize wrong leading to their posts not being saved :p ..and made breaking changes to how the config and database files are stored so um, make sure to clear your local tree before updating!

@bender@twtxt.net as the host (eg twtxt.net
) determines the canonical url of the instance in generated feed url
metadata as well as every hash of every post made on the instance internally, i added this error message to make sure people don’t accidentally set up their instance on localhost
:p for testing i set it to localhost:31212
and protocols to ["http"]
, it’s a recent addition that could definitely do with documenting in the getting started section
such a good cover https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49BQQ8OgDCM
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org omg this looks like a painting!
@bender@twtxt.net Believe me, I’ve never been more tempted to switch, than now, as Google is one by one, removing (or at last trying to remove) all the reasons why I chose Android, over iOS. In fact, many friends who were fellow “Android diehards”, ended up switching recently.
Sadly what I need is a headphone jack, ability to modify apps on device (decompile, change file, recompile), many specific mods, strong XMPP support, Pixel Station,… nothing switching to iOS, would give me.
It was nice to start a walk in the woods with sunshine. The last times it was all soupy. It was quite windy, autumn is certainly here. Soon, the leaves will begin to turn. https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2025-09-11/

@zvava@twtxt.net I gave this, in my mind, a like/star/love.
Yes, I know, this is a “bad taste” joke. I appreciate you, @thecanine@twtxt.net!
@thecanine@twtxt.net or, you know, you could get an iPhone. 😂😂😂
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org retwts are a discovery feature! on federated platforms with no algorithm where you only ever see posts from accounts you explicitly follow, the element of “hey look at this!” helps users to find other accounts they might like organically
i agree quoting and replying forum-style is generally a much better way of doing things even though im a heathen and i revel in the dark patterns inspired by quote posts but when you have nothing to add and you just want to share a twt with your followers it’d be good to have a standardized way of linking to twt
@bender@twtxt.net @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz after implementing cws in bbycll (parsing them the way i described in op) i understand why <details>
aren’t rendered. firstly they’re not actually markdown, and secondly they style weird — details are forced onto a new line as a block element but you can’t make the <summary>
inline because it is inside <details>
, and making <details>
inline will also indent everything inside it
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha, that girl is good! :-D
<details>
tag in HTML; it lets you write a sentence or so that someone can then click to expand to see the actual post. it's called a CW because most people use it to warn for potentially triggering/harmful subjects, but you can really use it for anything, like spoilers in a TV show or even for joke punchlines
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I reckon the original <details>
need to have the open
attribute set in order to expand it, so I cannot just define some custom CSS rules to do that in my browser.
But in regards to twtxt, my client won’t hide anything in that realm anyway. :-) It’s just more noise.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I would call it “dark ambient”. It’s a broad genre, but one I rather like.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org i think if there’s an option to expand them by default (which can be done with <details>
even) then i think it should be good!
@bender@twtxt.net ohhh oops! i will work harder then 🫡🫡
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz it is not showing for me, on a validator. Missing something?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ouch 😲
