@movq@www.uninformativ.de yeah man pages are good but these days i kinda prefer tldr and especially cheat.sh

@kiwu@twtxt.net i remember when this shit came out godddd it was electric

@prologic@twtxt.net hii thank you!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de hii!!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org thank you!!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz its so groovy and teen beach esque!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz what a time to be alive

Speaking of manpages:

“Man pages are great, man readers are the problem”

https://whynothugo.nl/journal/2025/04/09/man-pages-are-great-man-readers-are-the-problem/

mandoc is nicer to read/write than the man macro package and, most importantly, it’s semantic markup.

HTML output is a bit broken in GNU groff, though (OpenBSD on the left, GNU on the right):

🤔

Still, I’m inclined to convert my manpages to mandoc.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I still haven’t tried it. 🤐 Some day, perhaps …

@kiwu@twtxt.net Hello. 😅

la di da da di da da di da da di daaaaa https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeI992mvlEY

@thecanine@twtxt.net image is so real lol literally me

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org YEAH THEY ARE SOOO GOOD SINGING TOGETHER!!! it’s kind of their label (hello project)’s thing :]

@kiwu@twtxt.net somehow never got into this one, i gotta change that

been loving this

song lately

Welcome to the club, @kiwu@twtxt.net!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ta, very catchy indeed! :-) Their polyphony is great.

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Yeah, it’s all about simplicity. That’s what got me hooked. In its original form without the extensions, you can even read the raw feed and it doesn’t feel all that bad.

@kiwu@twtxt.net Hi!!!!!!!!! 😆 Welxome! 🙇‍♀️

My website has 0 depreciated tags now and all identical IDs, were merged into a single class. This also improves, how the text on top of the page, is aligned on mobile.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz WAHHHHHH🗣

@kiwu@twtxt.net LETS GOOOOOOOOO BANGER

@kiwu@twtxt.net hahahah it’s ok! just give it some time :)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz we love u too 🖤

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz hii!!!!!!!!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz ok! its kinda buggy here cuz my replys aren’t coming in!

@bender@twtxt.net I think it’s actually a new XEP proposal ( https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0084.html#proto-info ), but it’s still a bit unclear. Sorry for the late and vague response, I’m still trying to test it and see what it’s even about, didn’t yet find a server, that supports it.

EVERYONE SAY HI TO @kiwu@twtxt.net SHE’S MY LONGTIME BESTIE AND SUPER SWEET AND ALSO LOVES IDOLS LIKE ME :DDDD

for tradition purposes

@kiwu@twtxt.net HIIIIIIIIIIIII

@twtxt.net@twtxt.net HI KIWU YOUR PROFILE’S A BIT BUGGED ON OUR END BUT IT’S OK IT’LL FIX ITSELF

In 1996, they came up with the X11 “SECURITY” extension:

https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/4w548u/what_is_up_with_the_x11_security_extension/

This is what could have (eventually) solved the security issues that we’re currently seeing with X11. Those issues are cited as one of the reasons for switching to Wayland.

That extension never took off. The person on reddit wonders why – I think it’s simple: Containers and sandboxes weren’t a thing in 1996. It hardly mattered if X11 was “insecure”. If you could run an X11 client, you probably already had access to the machine and could just do all kinds of other nasty things.

Today, sandboxing is a thing. Today, this matters.

I’ve heard so many times that “X11 is beyond fixable, it’s hopeless.” I don’t believe that. I believe that these problems are solveable with X11 and some devs have said “yeah, we could have kept working on it”. It’s that people don’t want to do it:

Why not extend the X server?

Because for the first time we have a realistic chance of not having to do that.

https://wayland.freedesktop.org/faq.html

I’m not in a position to judge the devs. Maybe the X.Org code really is so bad that you want to run away, screaming in horror. I don’t know.

But all this was a choice. I don’t buy the argument that we never would have gotten rid of things like core fonts.

All the toolkits and programs had to be ported to Wayland. A huge, still unfinished effort. If that was an acceptable thing to do, then it would have been acceptable to make an “X12” that keeps all the good things about X11, remains compatible where feasible, eliminates the problems, and requires some clients to be adjusted. (You could have still made “X11X12” like “XWayland” for actual legacy programs.)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org check out their song zenbu kakete go!!

it’s very sleek and smooth and just so vibe-y!!! also this live performance

has an EPIC intro featuring ichika (violin girl) plus one of the members beatboxing and two girls (including my all time favorite idol, dambara ruru!) on vocals! it’s so good

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I REPLIED TO THIS AND NOW IT’S NOT SHOWING WTFFFF anyway what i said was that i have some fun stuff in the daily note template already like ASCII weather forecast from wttr AND a jenny holzer quote from fortune!!! i should add more fun stuff!!!

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz it’s been chill!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I BELIEVE IN U!!! Making it fun helps! Maybe like put images in the docs so it’s cuter to look at! I did that, but with physical journaling. Except instead of pics it was receipts & leaves & dried flowers lol

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Thank you! I have to check out more of their stuff.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Holy cow! O_o

Reducing the overall screen time is desireable, that’s right. I should do the same.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de How many? All of them!

My goodness, what assholes. Reacting based on the User-Agent might just work. For now.

@bender@twtxt.net yeah, my friend’s considering moving away from linode and instead self hosting. VPS stuff is a pain

Since Fastly acquired and recently shut down glitch.com, some of my ancient webapps are no longer available, nor do I have any plans to make them available again - all had either zero, or very few monthly visits, used outdated libraries and would be a waste of money, to continue hosting and updating elsewhere.

All art archives remain unaffected and all projects shut down before 2025, were already permanently deleted, but if there’s someone out there, still relying on the recently discontinued projects, somehow - you can reach out and request their source code.

These requests will only be honoured, until the end of this year, when we plan to permanently delete, all of this data (both webapps and files only hosted on Amazons CDN).

Canine out °_°

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org To be fair, I did first notice this a while ago. But no monitor I ever had showed burn-ins like this (be it TFT or CRT), so I didn’t know that I should have sent it back. And then it got worse over time and now I see ghost images after 20-30 minutes. :(

juice=juice the best group to ever do it

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz after 5 years or so with Linode, I started having little—but annoying—issues with them. Moved to Vultr and have been very happy with them since Ubuntu 16.04, so 9 years, and a little bit more.

omg new @bender@twtxt.net icon!!!!

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, because, you know, even if you try entering a fake date of birth, the “algorithms” will, move it like a Ouija board, changing it back to the right one /s. 🙄

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, because, you know, even if you try entering a fake date of birth, the “algorithms” will move it, like a Ouija board, changing it back to the right one /s. 🙄

@prologic@twtxt.net i am trying!!! i have a lil template to encourage me and everything <3
