@bender@twtxt.net Well Matt should definitely get better Lawyers/PR people who could slap em’ on the wrest and tell “NO!” before he does something childish and effs things up. As for WPE, I believe a billion dollar company should be able to afford investing in their own infrastructure, hosting their resources, deploying their own CDNs and what not instead of leaching on Wordpress (’s infrastructure) for free (as in free coffee) + The Stripe thing they did is so disgusting given the circumstances, I don’t even want to talk about it.

Things could/should’ve been handled better, now it’s just another sh…rimp show.

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no You too buddy, have a good one!

@prologic@twtxt.net here… Get the same impression about the dude as everyone else and then (get the other side of the story, although it is a mess)[https://invidious.privacyredirect.com/watch?v=Gd8h_6vYPJ8] … Theeeeen, don’t give an Eff’ about any of it. 🤣

@david@collantes.us and WPE are saints, right? 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net yeah, that’s what I said, and linked. Want more?

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt nah man! you’re not tricking me into answering that one 🤣🤣🤣

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt Are you sure? Not seen the mail yet…

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt Ooops you might want to re-send that to james instead 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net does that include mine? otherwise it would make them 8 and 5, maybe even throw off your maths by 0.00001% 😆 … and, come on! 1.04% seems like a good ratio considering how many gopher holes and gem capsules compared to how many Web servers out there in the world 😂

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt My Salty public key is:

kex1fhxntuc0av7q48hlfj970ve297dzzghn82wp5cahr9r92y8rlrqqtwp983

@xuu@txt.sour.is they can take 2% of your disk space/bandwidth and rent it to the highest bidder 🤥

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt Do you have a sample Caddy log file you can supply? I’ll see if we can improve the tool 👌

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt Fot a sample access log? Which tool are you using?

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt I couldn’t find any references to this anywhere either.

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt Like now?

@bender@twtxt.net I believe it is Unix-Unix Copy Protocol. Not Unix Copy-Copy Protocol.

@bender@twtxt.net Re that broken thread (#bqor23a). Its the same one. My pod doesn’t have the Root Twt: https://twtxt.net/twt/bqor23a => 404 Not Found.

How in the hell did you even reply to this in the first place?

@quark@ferengi.one HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! 🤣

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com ooooh! It’s that kind mission! /me stands, salutes, turns around, and exits the room. LOL.

@quark@ferengi.one HAHA I wish! but no. It’s actually

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com why, having a party with lots of libations? LOL.

@prologic@twtxt.net that “little database that could” is simply amazing, isn’t it? I run Conduwuit (nevermind, this one is RocksDB), and GoToSocial using it as a backend, no issues. And, of course, sqlite is the database of choice for a lot of things under iOS.

@david@collantes.us SQLite

@prologic@twtxt.net, are you running Gitea with an SQL backend, or using sqlite? Any reason have haven’t moved to Forgejo?

@prologic@twtxt.net a wise plan! Who knows, ideas change, and often plans do not hash, right? Mature, mature! :-)

@xuu@txt.sour.is was that 2% picked out randomly? I like it! LOL.

@prologic@twtxt.net I like the, allegedly, original:

“It can scarcely be denied that the supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a single datum of experience.”

Not as simple as the interpretation you used, yet often context is king (or queen).

@prologic@twtxt.net and one could say that “for every simple problem, there is a solution that’s confusing, convoluted, and right.” :-P

@prologic@twtxt.net so, where are they? I want to take a peek at HomeTunnel (even though I don’t a use case for it at the moment). Show us repos! :-P

@david@collantes.us yeah what @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org said. 😅 and I just chickened out seeing bigger numbers than usual.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org and @movq@www.uninformativ.de thanks for sharing those options, they’re a good point to start from. Much appreciated! 🙏

@mckinley@twtxt.net I mean, yes! I’ve heard a lot of good things about how efficient of a tool it is for backup and all; and I’m willing to spend the time and learn. It’s just that seeing those +400 possible options was a buzz-kill. 🫣 luckily @lyse and @movq shared their most used options!

@david@collantes.us having offsets were nice because it gives you context of where the user is in relation to you.

@prologic@twtxt.net thanks. I hate it. Might as well use UUID

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org thank you! Raining is starting to fall very steadily. All good so far. Wife’s home, a nice meal simmers. Ah! :-D

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org on this:

3.2 Timestamps: I feel no need to mandate UTC. Timezones are fine with me. But I could also live with this new restriction. I fail to see, though, how this change would make things any easier compared to the original format.

Exactly! If anything it will make things more complicated, no?

@sorenpeter@darch.dk not even this: https://twtxt.net/media/AzUmzTN5YEJdt4VPeeprjB.png?full=1

@sorenpeter@darch.dk this will show broken, because you are hellbent on editing twtxts, aren’t you? :-D

(#2024-09-24T12:53:35Z) What does this screenshot show? The resolution it too low for reading the text…

(#2024-09-24T12:45:54Z) @prologic@twtxt.net I’m not really buying this one about readability. It’s easy to recognize that this is a URL and a date, so you skim over it like you would we mentions and markdown links and images. If you are not suppose to read the raw file, then we might a well jam everything into JSON like mastodon

(#2024-09-24T12:44:35Z) There is a increase in space/memory for sure. But calculating the hashes also takes up CPU. I’m not good with that kind of math, but it’s a tradeoff either way.

(#2024-09-24T12:39:32Z) @prologic@twtxt.net It might be simple for you to run echo -e "\t\t" | sha256sum | base64, but for people who are not comfortable in a terminal and got their dev env set up, then that is magic, compared to the simplicity of just copy/pasting what you see in a textfile into another textfile – Basically what @movq@www.uninformativ.de also said. I’m also on team extreme minimalism, otherwise we could just use mastodon etc. Replacing line-breaks with a tab would also make it easier to handwrite your twtxt. You don’t have to hardwrite it, but at least you should have the option to. Just as i do with all my HTML and CSS.

(#2024-09-24T12:34:31Z) WebMentions does would work if we agreed to implement it correctly. I never figured out how yarnd’s WebMentions work, so I decide to make my own, which I’m the only one using…

I had a look at WebSub, witch looks way more complex than WebMentions, and seem to need a lot more overhead. We don’t need near realtime. We just need a way to notify someone that someone they don’t know about mentioned or replied to their post.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org aha! Just like Bash would do. I figure -- is way too broad to start an autocomplete. Got to feed it a bit more! :-D

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that -P is a life saver when running rsync over spotty connections. In my very illiterate opinion, it should always be a default.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I think all replies are missing the fact that your auto-completion isn’t working. LOL. Or did I misunderstood?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com @mckinley@twtxt.net rsync -avzr with an optional --progress is what I always use. Ah, I could use the shorter -P, thanks @movq@www.uninformativ.de.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com rsync -zaXAP is what I use all the time. But that’s all – for the rest, I have to consult the manual. 😅

And finally the legibility of feeds when viewing them in their raw form are worsened as you go from a Twt Subject of (#abcdefg12345) to something like (https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt 2024-09-22T07:51:16Z).

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Points 2 & 3 aren’t really applicable here in the discussion of the threading model really I’m afraid. WebMentions is completely orthogonal to the discussion. Further, no-one that uses Twtxt really uses WebMentions, whilst yarnd supports the use of WebMentions, it’s very rarely used in practise (if ever) – In fact I should just drop the feature entirely.

The use of WebSub OTOH is far more useful and is used by every single yarnd pod everywhere (no that there’s that many around these days) to subscribe to feed updates in ~near real-time without having the poll constantly.
