@jastas@twtpub.com That’s me! 👋 Haha 😆 Welcome to Yarn.social / Twtxt 🙌
@fossham@twtpub.com Hey 👋 Welcome to Yarn.social / Twtxt 👌
@smmbear@twtpub.com Hey 👋 Welcome to Yarn.social / Twtxt 👌 Just in case you are not ware a) spam is not really tolerated by this community and b) doesn’t work anyway, you’ll just be ignored, and there are exactly zero ways to promote spam or advertise on this social system – on purpose.
It’s the little things that make me happy these days. Like adding a function to search for text with various encodings to my hex editor. All neatly organized in the menu and with accelerators.

For the first time in probably 30 years, I played a game of M.U.L.E. tonight (and won!).

Granted, it was a beginner-level game, with a beginner-level alien against 3 computer players, but… I’m just sayin’.
I even lost one of my tracts of land due to it not being “recorded”, and I still won.

Take that, Mechtrons!
@klaxzy@klaxzy.net That set is the set of users that actually interact with one another. The “Twtxt” feed set is a bit larger, but mostly just “walls of posts” and little to no inteaction. So yeah, the real community is quite small sadly 😅
Oh god … this appears to be related to the input device? Using the scrollbar is fine but using the mouse wheel is not? https://movq.de/v/66db24e1ee/vid-1787378419.mp4
There is this extremely annoying issue with my website:
https://movq.de/v/4acced3c8e/scroll.mp4
Notice how I’m scrolling, then switching to another tab, switching back, and then the scrolling position is different?
What the hell could cause this? It’s not always like this and I have only seen it in Firefox so far (but I very rarely use Chromium anyway), and this really happens a lot on my site but not on others.
Any ideas? Did I screw up the CSS somehow? 🤔
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Their stance makes absolute sense to me, given their stated objectives, and they make some really great points. Thanks for sharing that.
@klaxzy@klaxzy.net What do you mean, it’s the most people we’ve ever had… since Jul 11, when the search site was relaunched. 😁

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s a clever idea - I had never considered adding an empty commit before, but I can see the value.
@arne@uplegger.eu They’re everywhere, send help
@arne@uplegger.eu Einfach so als Wahlergebnis verkünden. Dann denken die alle: „Ach, Mist, wie blöd, schon zu spät, na dann muss ich ja nicht mehr hin.“ Fertig. ✅
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh yeah, going full Prinzessin Müllabfuhr! 🥳 👸
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, even switching to Princess Garbage Disposal for real. :-O Sorry, mate, I really could not resit. ;-) Happy sp^Hummer cleaning!
@arne@uplegger.eu Dann müssten bloß noch die anderen auch so abstimmen. Viel Glück Euch, ihr werdet es brauchen.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de The best thing, it’s not far from reality. :-)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I don’t do it that often, either. But when I do, I always wanted to have such a tool. :-) And since it turned out super easy to “implement” … Why not.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org These look extra great with redshift enabled. 😅
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Not that often – except for the last few months. 😅 I was reorganizing lots of repos, merging them, splitting them, changing author names, whatever. Having an empty root commit was super handy (if there was one).
Crazy sick colors tonight: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2026-08-20/
@movq@www.uninformativ.de https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-08-05/0/POSTING-en.html Very interesting! I basically never analyze binary files, but this were some great thoughts on that subject. I hope to remember them when I find myself in the situation to look at binaries more closely.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Regarding https://movq.de/blog/postings/2026-08-16/0/POSTING-en.html, how often do you edit the first commit? A good mate does the same for at least a whole decade, probably more. I never found myself in this situation. Even though I mess with commits on a daily basis. Just never the first one so far. 8-)
@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com You weren’t/aren’t able to fin dmore open, less privacy evading “smartthings” ?
@klaxzy@klaxzy.net This is a good idea. I do something very simialr.
@thecanine@twtxt.net haha https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don%27t_be_evil
Real tired of doing these, but here’s another Android developers vs Google update, this time there’s both good and bad news.
The good:
-Users will be able to enable “sideloading” for all current and future devices, attached to their Google account, rather than having to undergo the tedious 24 hour wait including process, on each device.
-Rather than these changes to “sideloading” and “advanced workflows” being implemented at random different dates, in different countries, we’ll all get them come 2027.
The bad:
As GrapheneOS developers recently mentioned “Google replaced pushing Git tags for certain source code with obtaining source code via Google Drive after making a request through Google Forms. It’s completely ridiculous and they’ve gradually become very slow at handling requests. They’re in clear violation of the GPLv2 now.”

@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com What kind of IoT devices are we talking about here?
@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Turns out, it’s not a cool project. :-D
Can you build from source? Perhaps not if there is just a download link.
It’s been a hot minute since I last used alien to convert a Debian package into an RPM packge. Or was it the other way around? No clue.
@klaxzy@klaxzy.net I hear you! haha
@david@daiwei.me I noticed Boy Boy have a lot of gems. :-D
This cookie banner button uses “Abfall” in the German translation for probably “Reject” or “Configure”, I don’t know, simply left the site. This literally means waste, garbage, rubbish, trash. Spot on! :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de HTTP 402!
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Glad to hear it. Hopefully this, too, shall pass.
Maybe the bots will get tired of web-surfing, or the companies paying for it will all crash, or we’ll find a way to protect our content while still being able to share it, or maybe we’ll just all suddenly learn to live together with the bots in peace and prosperity for all. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ 🤞
@GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com On behalf of her royal highness, we thank you for your kind words.
@arg@twtpub.com You actually can, but we highly discourage it and I haven’t really built “Edit” / “Delete” functionality in the Twtxt App that I know you’re using 😅 Twtxt being purely decentralised, meaning that there are absolutely zero decentralised, with the exception of the twtpub.com service you’re using to reduce as much friction as possible for newcomers to try things, makes supporting threads a bit of a controversial topic 😆 – In the end we are sticking with the Hash v2 extension, making threads use content addressing, so even if you did delete/edit a Twt, you have to be carefuly it hasn’t already been replied to in the ecosystem 🤣
@david@daiwei.me Haha 😆
@arg@twtpub.com ohai
@david@daiwei.me since I became linuxpilled and embraced SSH, I do my Wordles through https://late.sh/
Can strongly recommend it, even has all the other daily puzzles: minesweeper, sudoku, solitaire, nonogram (kinda hate those),…
Maybe not the best family activity, the chat can be somewhat spicy and so can the collaborative ASCII art drawing game.
@arg@twtpub.com Hello! 👋
In #Magic last night, I debuted my new #Dune deck with an underwhelming performance - perhaps unsurprisingly for a desert-focused deck, I faced a real drought, starting the game with only 1 land in hand (even after a mulligan) and not pulling another land until turn 4(!). Because of our house starting mana, I wasn’t totally sunk, but everything I got out was just luck. I did die last thanks to my big wurms (so I guess I was 2nd place?), but still… underwhelming.
For game 2, I wanted to bring the thunder (especially after my pitiful performance last week), so I dusted off my Night of 1000 Squirrels deck (headed by the infamous Chatterfang, Squirrel General). By turn 3, the #squirrel army was forming, and thanks to well-timed casts of Fog and Make a Stand, the squirrels managed to overrun everyone just a few turns later.
Another fun night overall. I won’t be able to play for the next few weeks, so I’m glad this one ended with a win. 😁 #mtg
Today, we have a pair of pics presenting the preening Princess Peaches posing in pink (from earlier this year, when it was cooler and she was wearing t-shirts). #dogs

@david@daiwei.me Thanks, I do… IIRC, they’re a good site for spoilers for upcoming releases.

@murad@twtxt.net Yes things do work 🤣
@murad@twtxt.net Welcome to Yarn.social / Twtxt 🥳 You might want to fiddle a bit with your settings, maybe a nice avatar, description, maybe a few links, etc 😃
I took the day off to get some stuff done around the house, but I wound up spending most of the day making #Dune-themed proxies for #Magic.
I had hoped to print them out for tomorrow night’s games, but I’m up to 20 cards and 20+ tokens, so… we’ll have to wait and see what tomorrow brings.
Here’s a couple to share and enjoy:
