@movq@www.uninformativ.de Right, you showed this keyboard stand some time ago. I completely forgot about that.

@eapl.me@eapl.me @bender@twtxt.net @skinshafi@thunix.net The feed that nobody follows out of fear.

When I started programming in Delphi, I always included all the files (not only the *.exe, but also *.pas and what else there was) when giving friends my programs on floppy disks. I didn’t know that the executable was technically enough. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You won’t believe how happy I was when I turned off my work machine a few minutes ago. It feels absolutely amazing! :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de that’s not THAT old! it still can kick a$$ 👍

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com This is an Intel i7-3770 from 2013 with an integrated GPU (HD 4000).

Looks like FreeCAD works fine and I think this is a more appropriate program anyway. 😊

@bender@twtxt.net Hmmm… it makes sense. Now I curious, how old is his hardware though? is it SolveSpace kind of old? or reaaaally Blender 2.4 series kid of old!? 🤔

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com will all those run on his hardware? I don’t think @movq@www.uninformativ.de’s problem is the software, it is that his hardware has gotten too old. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I know, nobody asked 🤡 but, here are a couple of suggestions:

• If you’re willing to pay for a licence I’d highly recommend plasticity it’s under GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE, Version 3.
  
• Otherwise if you already have experience with CAD/Parametric modeling you could give freeCAD a spin, it’s under GNU Library General Public License, version 2.0, it took them years but have just recently shipped their v1.0 👍
  
• or just roll with Autodesk’s Fusion for personal use, if you don’t mind their “Oh! You need to be online to use it” thing.
  

(Let’s face it, Blender is hard to use.)
I bet you’re talking about blender 2.79 and older! 😂 you are, right? JK

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ooohh, nice and long vacation! 😃

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Mostly small and simple stuff, like cable management, headphone rests, pill dispensers (that I didn’t end up using), … The most elaborate thing I made was that contraption for my keyboard, which is a bit hard to explain right now, so here’s some photos:

I didn’t end up using that, either. 🥴

In general, I print very little. So little that some of my supplies have simply gone bad, like that “3D LAC” (sprayable glue).

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yeah, I saw that when googling the issue. I’m on Linux, there are no DLLs to swap. I could use an older version indeed. 🤔 Let’s see if I can find some better alternative first. (Let’s face it, Blender is hard to use.)

@lime360@lime360.nekoweb.org Welcome yo Twtxt / Yarn.social 👋

@lime360@lime360.nekoweb.org Hi there! 👋

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Damn! I’ve been there, and it sucks when it comes to that. and I may be hallucinating but I believe there was some dll file I had to download and put somewhere in blender’s folder and that got it to work back then. Also, what’s the latest version of #blender you could run?

No surprise, @skinshafi@thunix.net, they can be easily mixed up. See, the hemming distance between prologic and _doesnm__ is just 7! :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Fear not, there is probably Paint on DOS! :-D

On a more serious note, what things did you 3D-print?

Yeah, @eapl.me@eapl.me, I kinda like file extensions in some situations. What do you think of twtxt.exe, @bender@twtxt.net? ]:->

Yeah, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! “Sorry boss, I accidentally removed the bug report, because the button suddenly materialized under my cursor.” :-D

Luckily, I do not have to deal with that UI from hell for three and a half weeks very soon.

Agreed, @bender@twtxt.net, bad typography always kills it for me, too.

LMAO! 🤣 I’ve had @doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt’s nick linked to @prologic@twtxt.net’s url for this feed the whole time !! 🤦

@eapl.me@eapl.me you could use the tw.txt as your primary url and keep the old one as a secondary for a while (maybe even do the opposite) maybe even create the new tw.txt file and make use of the prev metadata pointing at the old … 🤷

# nick = eapl.me
# url = https://eapl.me/tw.txt
# url = https://eapl.me/twtxt.txt

or …

# url = https://eapl.me/tw.txt
# prev = https://eapl.me/twtxt.txt

@eapl.me@eapl.me@eapl.me@eapl.me Done! 👌

@anth hehe, cool!

I’m changing mine to tw.txt -> https://eapl.me/tw.txt
And the older twtxt.txt will be redirecting for a while

@prologic@twtxt.net Maybe Becky mistyped, she’s a ninja and wanted to show off her naked sword. :-D

I hear you, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! I have to wait five seconds after opening any Jira ticket before the JS garbage has eventually fetched all the other information and rebuilt the DOM. Only then I can actually begin to scroll down to the information I’m after. Every fucking time.

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club It looked like elisp at first glance… is it? 🤔

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt I sent that mention manually for a demonstration as mentioned in the previous twt. Used the curl method.

@prologic@twtxt.net What IRC client is that?

@eapl@eapl.mx I agree with you that the obviously-correct filename is tw.txt. That’s what mine’s always been.

@phoronix@feeds.twtxt.net oh gee the syntax of that thing 😆

@funbreaker@we.loveprivacy.club welcome!

Grab this one and enhance it, @prologic@twtxt.net?

@prologic@twtxt.net sure! I don’t know if this is what you need but, let me give it a try.

• I have Timeline installed, which has an endpoint to process #webmentions. Mine for example is https://aelaraji.com/timeline/webmention which you can find by querying https://aelaraji.com/.well-known/webfinger.
  
• If you mention someone from #Timeline itself, it takes care of querying that and sending in the mention for you.
  
• Otherwise (what I personally do) you could just:
  

curl -i -d 'source=https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt#:~:text=2024-12-09T01:22:37Z' -d 'target=https://aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt' https://aelaraji.com/timeline/webmention

basically what @sorenpeter@darch.dk mentioned in his article Here.

Afterwards, the mentions are stored in their own mentions.txt feed. The one from the example above looks like this on my Timeline :

Feel free to spam my endpoint if you’d like to give things a try. 👍

[P.S: personally, I don’t seem to get the mentions if I add the Text fragment part to my target]

Thank you @bender@twtxt.net and @movq@www.uninformativ.de!

I partially fixed the code block rendering. With some terrible hacks, though. :-( I see that empty lines in code block still need some more work. There are also some other cases around line continuation where the result looks ugly. I have to refactor some parts to make this go more smoothly and do this properly. No way around that.

Turns out, my current message text parser does not even parse plain links. That’s next on the agenda.

Oh, I also noticed that this thing crashes when there is not enough space to actually draw stuff. No shortage of work. Anyway, time is up, good night. :-)

@bender@twtxt.net There’s a lot of unused space left on the house!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Can you walk me through your testing process here and share example links etc? 🙏

@bender@twtxt.net I wonder where that dude who was hosting his twtxt feed in a google drive go? 😆 that was hilarious!!

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Noice!! just gave a try… and it’s looking way better! -not that the old format was bad, it’s just that this one is looking more readable-

Did I write here already that the reason why I love Twtxt so much is that it works without having to compile, install anything extra. Just the bin applications that come with 95% of all operating systems and you’re good to read and participate, giving you have a domain name somewhere to host the twtxt.txt file.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com https://github.com/sorenpeter/timeline/commit/555baefcd0e75e6a281472994e8eb7ae9b5d2a1c

@sorenpeter@darch.dk What are we testing?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I will take that as a compliment

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hahaha! I find it funny what brain autocorrects can come up with. :-)

@sorenpeter@darch.dk

“A minimalist social network powered by plain text files”

My brain keeps shortening this to “a socialist network …” and then jumps to “uhh, large parts of the US won’t like this” … 🤦🤪

@discoverbsdthebsdcommunitylinklog@feeds.twtxt.net This is interesting. Not giving up on #FreeBSD #jails yet but definitely have to give this a try; and if my #podman workflow goes as smooth as it does on #Linux I might just end up installing FreeBSD on the #RaspberryPi too! 🥳

[lang=en] Random idea: twtxt.txt files should be named tw.txt instead.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de The view in these is pretty gorgeous as well!! 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net Heck yeah, gorgeous! Did you hike up there?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Uuuh, nice! Despite the weather service claiming that it is snowing at this very moment, there is absolutely nothing here.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de tried translating that and it said Art lover/enthusiast, that could be correct since that despise of the artificial stems out of “Love for the Actual real Art” although that’s a subjective statement in itself; xD duckduckgo’s translation thing spat out “künstliche-Kunsthasser”

/me wantis to learn german so bad!
