@xuu@txt.sour.is, how come I can’t see your lovely mouse avatar on my pod? I know you might not have an answer; I am puzzled, and mostly thinking on loud voice here. I see your avatar fine at twtxt.net.
@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?
I saw the allegedly animated GIF @thecanine@twtxt.net uploaded gets a PNG extension, yet remains animated. I know PNG can be made animated, but I don’t think that’s what’s happening here, so I am puzzled. Let’s see how this Nyam cat looks like.

@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!
@prologic@twtxt.net I fully agree with making it a pod-level setting (forget about user-level, let us not complicate things too much; we all know users know nothing). Should I send a latinum over for this, or will an issue just suffice? Neep-gren!
@prologic@twtxt.net I am seeing a problem in which not-so-active users, such as myself, are ending up having a blank “Recent twts from…” under their profiles because, I assume, the cache long expired. What can be done about it? Business personalities such as myself can’t be around here that often! Could something be implemented so that, say, the last 10 or 20 twts are always visible under one’s profile? Neep-gren!
@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com, I am sure profit—or the search for it—was involved. Most likely that pilot was a Ferengi in disguise. We are known to visit lesser planets seeking to exploit. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t. Hoping my fellow Ferengi fares well or, at the very least, lets me know where his Latinum is.
The Feds Are Investigating a YouTuber Accused of Crashing a Plane For Views
A YouTuber and former Olympic snowboarder has been accused of crashing his plane on purpose for clicks, and the FAA has opened an investigation to get to the bottom of the growing mess.

I have only just discovered this and need to dig in more, but so far it looks like a really nice reference for electronics pinouts: https://pinouts.org/
Okay, I’ve updated my examples page and shared the more complex ssh example. http://a.9srv.net/shortcuts
iOS has had a “Shortcuts” app for a while now which is very useful for scripting things on the device, and at some point grew the ability to run things via ssh, including piping input/output. It’s how I’ve done twtxt from my phone for a while now. I’ll clean up these two examples and post to the examples I’ve shared. http://a.9srv.net/shortcuts
Only 1 day of activity so far, but I’ve started a new project log for whatever the heck I end up doing to this Monroe 425 I got. http://a.9srv.net/monroe425
About two years late, but I finally finished setting up an iOS Shortcut so I can post to my blog via ssh. http://a.9srv.net/b/

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, Mr. Fastidious. We fully agree with you.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Sir, you really should have forked that conversation long back to keep our environment clean and tidy. Unfortunately, you did not attend the meeting earlier, so we have to advise you in writing to be prudent. Please keep in mind the fork lockdown is currently not in place. There are currently no plans to enforce it in the near future.

Netflix Raises Monthly Subscription Prices in US, Canada

Jerome Powell Says the Fed is Prepared To Raise Rates To Tame Inflation
Jerome H. Powell, the Federal Reserve chair, told lawmakers on Tuesday that a rapidly healing economy no longer needed as much help from the central bank and that keeping inflation in check – including by raising interest rates – would be critical for enabling a stable expansion that benefits workers. From a report: Mr. Powell, … ⌘ Read more
@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com +1 …Now just a way to come up with the $20 per twt to store the data.
@prologic@twtxt.net I have thought about this because even though it doesn’t happen often, when it does it bothers me greatly. I haven’t found a solution. How about you? What could be done to avoid this from happening?
I know we have been over this in more than one occasion. Ideas about editing timeouts, or not allowing to edit/delete came up, but were quicky discarded as absurd.
@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com Oh But somehow @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org saw the old Twt and replied to that 🤦♂️
This is the downside of not fetching often enough or refreshing just in case a feed has changed your replying to hmmm 🤔
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that is a horrible idea. A mobile device isn’t a server. Having a mobile device pull raw twtxt feeds from everywhere on an ongoing bases, will be, at the very least, tolling on the device’s battery. Just at you, or even further, I will never use such thing.
@prologic@twtxt.net sorry about the spelling mistakes. English is my third language.
Also I didn’t mean to question the vision as such.
Just ment a mobile up that pulls in files directly from the users follow list would line up better with the idea of decentralizing personal data. Since not everyone will be running a pod, but most everyone can have a public facing folder. Specially now with services like Skynet coming online.
Sorry hope I didn’t offend you too much.
@tamer@twtxt.net We’re not trying to compete with anything… If you’ve read About Yarn.social – In a nutshell I want to create an open, transparent social platform that respect’s folks privacy and freedoms. It must also be easy to use and down-to-earth where human interactions actually matter.

Just reading in-depth and trying to understand the security model of Delta.Chat a bit more… There’s a few things that really concern me about how Delta.Chat which relies on Autocrypt work:
- There is no Perfect Forward Secrecy
- No verification of keys

I think y’all are missing something. I never used ftp as a schema; I’m saying the “ftp” hostname part with the “http” schema is amusing.
Check the raw file. ;-) Yes, “http colon slash slash ftp”.
