@movq@www.uninformativ.de I usually only use eggs for baking or fry them for potatoes and spinach. @prologic@twtxt.net Why don’t you have them anymore? Did the fox get them all when the door didn’t close in time? ]:->

All this time spent being grumpy about how adding my Now updates directly into the html page is uncomfortable, and it just occurred to me I can chug it into a text file and use cat.

I’m reminded today that books are still a great form of entertainment. Secondhand books in particular are always plentiful and cheap–a big plus in times of supply chain squeezes and rampant inflation.

We don’t have meaningful social connections anymore like our parents or their parents geeration had. We are so scattered, that I am unsure how many of my friends are actually friends and how many are just professional contacts. Everytime I switch job, almost 70% of my friends suddenly fall out of contact. Heck, I don’t even know the people who live in next apartments both left, right, up and down on the same building. Socializing with my friends mean, setting up an appointment weeks ahead to see if we can align on a free-slot and this often involves all of us commuting to somewhere and disbanding by 22:00 hours because family, work next morning, chores to do, doctor appointment and other human things. Why do you waste so much time on the internet? | Hacker News

Spent the last few days debugging network issues at work.

Exhausting. You never get a full picture. You poke a little here, poke a little there, … Form a hypothesis and test it. Eventually, maybe, you can narrow it down a bit to some segment or even some component.

A very time consuming process. Even more so if you try not to cause downtimes for your users.

I want a magical device that allows me to look inside a cable/fibre.

But hey, at least we got rid of a bunch of Cisco switches in the process. So there’s that.

I would HIGHLY recommend reading up on the keybase architecture. They designed device key system for real time chat that is e2e secure. https://book.keybase.io/security

A property of ec keys is deriving new keys that can be determined to be “on curve.” bitcoin has some BIPs that derive single use keys for every transaction connected to a wallet. And be derived as either public or private chains. https://qvault.io/security/bip-32-watch-only-wallets/

So many interesting projects, so little time … and also so many excuses

Took a flu medicine last night, and it knocked me down around 22:00. Woke up at 04:00, then slept till 06:30. All has been seemingly fine, not feeling sleepy, and mostly alert… until now. I am having a really hard time keeping my eyes open. 😬

I got a Kobo Clara HD in the mail yesterday, but the screen was cracked right out of the box. Time to ship it back and get a replacement.

@prologic@twtxt.net you be the man! I can’t remember the last time something gave as much troubles as this. The mention and the way to handle images are two things that have stuck in my head. Hopefully this is the last time there is an issue with this one! 🤞🏻

@movq@www.uninformativ.de was the request to remove the hash (subject) from showing on twts discarded? I don’t see it on the TODO, so I am curious. Was it something you decided was not worth investing time on?

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com 🕑 Hi, the current time is about a quarter past two in the afternoon 🌅.

The battery life in this i9 MacBook Pro from 2018 has diminished to being barely enough to serve as an UPS backup system with enough time to perform a safe shutdown

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.
