One year ago to the date I made the lastest update for #phpub2twtxt to github and now 365 days later I have published #pixelblog as its successor - lets see where things are going for trip around the sun

Not sure if Starlink satellites are in orbit around/over Australia yet, but I wouldn’t go with that option anyway due to the latency alone.
I believe it is being trialled in some places in Aus already. I will admit, I’ve been signed up for the beta for a while and it’s supposed to be coming to my area sometime in 2022, though that may be delayed due to the chip shortage stuff.
I think the latency is supposed to be 45-60ms on average, which while not as good as fixed line obviously, is leagues better than old fashioned high orbit satellite broadband which is about 600~ms.
@prologic@twtxt.net, who calls me name when I am busy profiting? 😂 In a less serious note—because nothing is more serious than making profit, of course—yes, it seems your avatar issue has been fixed. I am kind of sad, I looked forward each day to see which random one was going to show. LOL.
@prologic@twtxt.net let us take the path of less resistance, that is, less effort, for now. I am going to be a great-grandfather before search ever get implemented locally, least one to search on “all pods”. In other words, let us don’t bite more than we can chew. 😹 Neep-gren!
I just went to type the phrase “I avoid Linux like the plague” but then remembered that we’ve all learned that most people won’t actually go much out of their way to avoid the plague.
Although blocking off this footpath, we’re not going to tell our colleges until the day after tomorrow. Please report back tomorrow, @movq@www.uninformativ.de.
Hey @eldersnake@yarn.andrewjvpowell.com I just came across this cool little project recently. Not written by me sadly 😂 But seems like it would do the trick nonetheless 🤣 – How are you going with PageKite? Is it still working okay for your Yarn pod powered by the outback of down under? 😅 LMK if you’d like me to spin this up anad you can be my first tester 🤙
New repository: aquilax/nutriscore - Go library for calculating the Nutri-Score of foods and beverages.
You’re right @ullarah@txt.quisquiliae.com I just watched Australia Post Outrage: Did She Need To Go?
and I do believe I’ll start adding this to my “watchlist” – I don’t use Youtube specifically (because privacy eroding garbage); but the content this guy produces is awesome! 👌
Scotty from marketing really needs to be fired! Can we even fire Prime Ministers besides calling an election? 🤔 The more you dig into our #Australian #Government the more you realize just how fucking corrupt they all are and have been over so many years. How?! 🤦
@prologic@twtxt.net I think this is awesome. I’m proud to be part of this.
Annnd… I need to learn go. No money here, but at least I would make some cool PRs (or MRs?)
@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com the things Gemini has going for it are mutual TLS and lack of JavaScript. Which makes for a secure albeit boring experience (much like gopher). The fake markdown is a bit of a drag.
A render mode for Gemini probably wouldnt be too hard. There are markdown to Gemini libs out there.
With Web3 the whole trust a 3rd party browser ext + high fees + env impact for compute and storage are serious no gos for me.. I have heard one too many horror stories about clicking the wrong link and some script draining your metamask wallet.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org more often than not, it is! I mean, I try to go over the changes, but soon find myself in a web (not pun!), all entangled. Then say, “screw it!” and to the bin it goes. 🥴

Don’t go overboard, guys.
New repository: aquilax/cooklang-go - Cooklang parser
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.
JavaScript : web apps
wut?! 😳 seriously?! 🤦♂️
Python : small tools
Okay 👌
Go: micro services
Umm bad generalization 🤣 – Example yarnd that powers most of Yarn.social 😂
Java: enterprise software
Yes! Oh gawd yes! 🤣 And Java™ needs to die a swift death!
C: crimes
Hmmm? 🤔 I feel this one is going to have some backslash and/or go the way of “Hacker” being misconstrued to mean entirely different/incorrect things as is what’s happening in the media (for various definitions of “media”).
Yep! https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/yarn/src/branch/master/internal/webmention/webmention.go#L150-L156

Still needs some work, but please have a go with it and hack away

Now, onto the real question: what to eat? Partner isn’t home, so zero nutritional supplements have been consumed, and I have been lazy enough not to go out to fetch me something. So… hmm, yeah. Going to an eight years old niece birthday “roller scatting” party in an hour, maybe I get lucky with a slice of pizza, or two. 🤣

Aha! Cool! Not just deleting, but proceeding as if the twt is going to be send. If I :q! on vi it will add an empty line. If, instead, I go :x like I normally do, it works as you said—and as I wanted it. Thanks!
Is it me, or Gmail’s web interface is going down the drain? Using Safari—my default browser—often takes two, or three clicks to open an email. If it weren’t because its search is amazing, I would never visit its web interface.
@eldersnake@yarn.andrewjvpowell.com
Seems like you need to make your parser smarter. Go tinker! 😋
Now, if there is going to be some sort of price, which for me equals to profit, then I will twt non-stop until I hit it! 🤣
Having used—and still using—1Password (a password manager) for many years, I have gone through a few stages of disliking/frustration with it. The first was when subscriptions were set in place, the second is now, with their approach for auto-filling under iOS. It is, more often than I would like to, telling me to configure it when I did so from day one. My open support ticket isn’t going too far either.
I wish iCloud KeyChain would mimic some of its features, so I can just dump it. KeyChain has improved a lot, now allowing OTP to be saved with a credential, but it is still not quite there yet.
Apple’s event on Monday is bringing, as always, speculation to the table. One thing most outlets seem to agree is the introduction of an “M1X” chip, thought Apple might call it differently. M1X might also mean, M1(we don’t know what comes after, or next generation). Either way, I would really like to see the return of the 27” iMac, but I will not hold my breath. Nevertheless, Monday is going to be an exciting day for many, including me! 🍎
@adi@f.adi.onl Oh boy… we don’t want to go down that route. There is plenty to know about the Taliban, not just from the news but from people who lived—and still lives—under their “governance”; all of which is, I am afraid, much more accurate than your highschool girlfriend story telling.
@prologic@twtxt.net Hopefully this URL change fixes things. Otherwise I am lost; don’t know what’s going on. 😩
the focus on music thing is going poorly, but i think i have a plan or two what has come together in the last bit gemini://sunshinegardens.org/~xj9/posts/2021-09-06-rlog-v/

sad because your world is ending. my world was ending before i was born. take a load off and smoke this j, we were all going to die anyway. that’s just life ^^
i think AP is doomed by its complexity. i want things like the fedi to exist, but they have to be a fuck lot more simpler if there’s ever going to be a big big pile of indie server options that can easily be mutated to suit every group individually. shit like twtxt and gemini gives me hope because they are small enough to fuck with in very small bursts and still get somewhere.

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.
