I’m with @andros@twtxt.andros.dev and @eapl.me@eapl.me on this one. But I have also lost interest in twtxt lately and currently rethinking what digital tools truly add value to my life. So I will not spending my time on adding more complexity to Timeline. Still a big thanks to you @prologic@twtxt.net for all the great work you have done and all the nice conversations both here and on our video calls.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yes! There is a cause: The renewable energies.
In Spain there is a lot of dependence on renewable energies and this is a problem for maintaining the voltage in the network. Thus, a 60% loss was lost for 5 seconds. In cascade, the circuit breakers were automatically switched off.
The B-side of renewable energies. They produce electricity but not dynamic energy.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Well some! 🙌

@bender@twtxt.net <333

@bender@twtxt.net i forgot it LOL

@peron@texto-plano.xyz wow 1650 cd??? ahi tiene que estar hasta la lambada. xD cuanto emites? quiero escucharlo! xD

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz which was your last post? 😊

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz you are OK. Taking a deep breath, everything’s gonna be irie, mon. 😅

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i just did the migration to stuff on the cacher branch so i’m like WHAT IS HAPPENING

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz oh ok i think it’s slowly rebuilding stuff

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m very sorry but my feelings are similar to @eapl.me@eapl.me . For a long time I thought that Yarn was part of the Twtxt ecosystem, and not that Twtxt is an extension of Yarn. I don’t feel comfortable with what has happened. I didn’t expect this change of direction.
The nice part of Twtxt is that it is read by humans, with a simpler format. It’s the heart of the social network.
I need to think for a little time, but I’m thinking of stopping my involvement in the community.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I CAN’T SEE TWTXT.NET ANYMORE?! WHAT’D I DO IN THE MIGRATION HELP LOL

@movq@www.uninformativ.de oh dear lord, take it away, take it away! LOL.

@thecanine@twtxt.net Yeah this is where I think all the hype really falls down. It’s all just a really really expensive search engine and auto-complete 🤦‍♂️ That’s it!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz My eyes hurt, though. 🥴

@xuu@txt.sour.is, see this. The italics didn’t come out.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz yes, both the newsletter and the podcast, from time to time.

@prologic@twtxt.net I was not expecting much, but since the list of restaurants near company buildings, was hard coded into it, I did expect it to at least copy the menu text, from the websites, in its database. Ironically, the only restaurant where it got something right, is the only one, where the websites has the text as a transparent PNG, the AI has to convert to text.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz MinIO is a good choice for a self-hosted Object Storage (compatible with S3 APIs) 👌

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Don’t be nervous, I make sure I test the shit™ out of things before anyone else does 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net exciting!!!!!! i’m SO SORRY i didn’t get to doing the migration for my instance though - i’ve been really busy! T__T but i hope to get to it sometime this week i really wanna upgrade i think i’m just a bit nervous for whatever reason lol

@thecanine@twtxt.net do you read ed zitron’s newsletter? he writes in depth about how AI is a crock of shit it makes me feel normal for once

@movq@www.uninformativ.de this looks really cool

@Yarn@yarn.social yo, what’s up? I am busy running my business here!

@thecanine@twtxt.net “*BuT cAnInE, tHe A(G)i ReVoLuTiOn Is NoW*” Hahahaha! Thanks for good laugh! 🤣

Hello @Yarn.social@yarn.social 👋 (testing something)

@thecanine@twtxt.net Sorry, but you were expecting what now?! 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, I see. I reckon I accidentally late April-fooled myself. :-D

It’s an interesting comparison. I really should have thought about that.

You’re right, the rendering would not be very spectacular. :-)

@bender@twtxt.net ROFL 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net if I tell you I will lose the edge. I want to mass produce them, as a business venture. LOL.

@bender@twtxt.net How does it work? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net that mechanical magical ball I built is doing a good job, thus far. :-P

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh, no, this is vastly exaggerated. Neil deGrass Tyson says, the earth is smoother than a cue ball (billiard): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMP5dNsZ-6k

That would make for a very dull OpenGL program, though. 😂

@bender@twtxt.net You guessed right 🤣

@iolfree@tilde.club Fuck no. 😅

@bender@twtxt.net LOL how would I have guessed that?! 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Thank you! I am writting on PR page.

@prologic@twtxt.net Spain. Duh! 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net Yesterday Spain, Portugal, maybe Morocco, were without electricity for 12 hours. I could not work. My home server was down, my feed and pages were online because of that 😂

@yejokjanan@texto-plano.xyz siii que la pelicula es interactiva.. muy interesante y original!

@javivf@adn.org.es 12 Hlirs without power? 🧐 Where do you reside?! 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org likewise I don’t have the energy for a fundamental shift in any of our specifications that would inevitably cause a lot of toil and try and change in our clients implementations and unforeseen problems that we haven’t really fully understood:

@movq@www.uninformativ.de At this point someone needs to make a decision 🤣 @bender@twtxt.net keeps reminding me of that😅

@yejokjanan@texto-plano.xyz la de tetris ( netlix ) tu dices?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Agreed, finding the right motivation can be tricky. You sometimes have to torture yourself in order to later then realize, yeah, that was actually totally worth it. It’s often hard.

I think if you find a project or goal in general that these kids want to achieve, that is the best and maybe only choice with a good chance of positive outcome. I don’t know, like building a price scraper, a weather station or whatever. Yeah, these are already too advanced if they never programmed, but you get the idea. If they have something they want to build for themselves for their private life, that can be a great motivator I’ve experienced. Or you could assign ‘em the task to build their own twtxt client if they don’t have any own suitable ideas. :-)

Showing them that you do a lot of your daily work in the shell can maybe also help to get them interested in text-based boring stuff. Or at least break the ice. Lead by example. The more I think about it, the more I believe this to be very important. That’s how I still learn and improve from my favorite workmate today in general. Which I’m very thankful of.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Wow, that’s sick! Assuming the rendering is correct, I never realized the mountain ranges being this steep and tall. This has real education potential for geography classes. Really cool!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de In case you reconsider, it would be even easier then to just send an HTTP 429 Too Many Requests. :-)

@bender@twtxt.net Hehehe! :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I have to admit, I didn’t follow the topic very closely, but I was under the impression that there were more votes on location-based addressing. But maybe I’m completely wrong. Anyway. I don’t have the energy to be part of a fundamental debate.

@prologic@twtxt.net Thank you for writing this together. I just left a few comments.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org

Also, I see what you did there in regards to the reply model change poll. ]:->

The community is heavily divided in this regard, and yet we need consensous. We’re like the three Borg in VOY: Survival Instinct. 🥴

@prologic@twtxt.net if not that, what else? Communism? Is there, really, such thing? 🤣
