@New_scientist@feeds.twtxt.net No for f*#$’s sake stop pushing this hype

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net Thank you! Yep, 14 is a house martin tower: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwalbenhaus There are a few around here, although most of these nesting boxes are actually not on dedicated towers, but attached at the roof overhangs of private houses.

@prologic@twtxt.net maybe you meant to specify twtxt as a type similar to ActivityPub’s application/activity+json in https://webfinger.net/lookup/?resource=sorenpeter@norrebro.space

    {
      "rel": "self",
      "type": "application/activity+json",
      "href": "https://norrebro.space/users/sorenpeter"
    },

Then it would also make sense to define a Link Relations but should that then link to something like https://twtxt.dev/webfinger.html where we can describe the spec?

@prologic@twtxt.net Well I just mirrored yarnd’s JSON in my webfinger endpoint and lookup, so not much else to do for standardization.

And for people who don’t like PHP you can always just go with Added WebFinger support to my email address using one rewrite rule and one static file. or simply putting a static JSON in place for .well-know/webfinger

@movq@www.uninformativ.de omg its like haskell but with more monads.

@mckinley@twtxt.net No, no, it’s not dead, it’s resting! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vuW6tQ0218

Hi Twtxt

@prologic@twtxt.net optional features don’t gain adoption from non-technical users. This needs to be built in.

@eapl.me@eapl.me why not https://domain.com/.well-known/twtxt/:domain/:user ?

the business card test is this can you write it on your business card and have someone you give it to be able to figure it out without added context?

• phone number: yes because everyone knows what a phone number is.
  
• email address: yes, everyone knows an email and their aol or prodigy will let them email.
  
• twitter/x/insta/pintrest handle: no, whats a twitter? do i need to sign up?
  
• domain name: yes its simple and you just type it in a browser right?
  
• twtxt url: kinda? its a bit long and is that a forward slash? or a backward slash?

@xuu@txt.sour.is is there anything stopping in clients from supporting this as an optional feature?

since twtxt is based on text files, I think you can consider @domain.tld as an alias of http://domain.com/twtxt.txt (or https://domain.com/tw.txt, among other combinations in the wild).

Or perhaps you can use DNS TXT records?
Although I think that’s a bit more complicated for some environments and users, I’d go with looking for a default /tw*.txt

One benefit with bluesky is your username is also a website. And not a clunky URL with slashes and such. I wish twtxt adopted that. I have advocated for webfinger to for twtxt to let us do something like it with usernames. Nostr has something like it

By default the bsky.social urls all redirect to their feeds like: hmpxvt.bsky.social
Many custom urls will redirect to some kind of linktree or just their feed cwebonline.com or la.bonne.petite.sour.is or if you are a major outlet just to your web presence like https://theonion.com‬ or https://netflix.com

Its just good SEO practice

Do all nostr addresses take you to the person if typed into a browser? That is the secret sauce.
No having to go to some random page first. no accounts. no apps to install. just direct to the person.

Anyone started seeing this from Slashdot? 🤔

Ta, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, yummy. It’s one of the very few good christmas songs in my opinion.

@prologic@twtxt.net how does one signs up? I am sure you haven’t advertised the service yet, right?

Brilliant, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, I didn’t think of the keystore! :-D

Me too, @aelaraji@aelaraji.com, I don’t know how many entire books I had to rewrite because of Ctrl+W irreversibly deleting the entire chapter.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de HAHA! speaking of reflexes, Ctrl+SHIFT+v to paste and Ctrl+a to get to the start of the line, get me all the time when I’m using a browser … Ctrl+w (delete back a word) is the worst! tabs go Pouf! 🥲

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Where in firefox can I set custom CSS?

@prologic@twtxt.net thanks

@prologic@twtxt.net thanks

@prologic@twtxt.net thanks

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Interesting! I always use uBlock Origin to do that.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Did it work!? :-D

With these programmable keyboards today, one could easily make the keyboard type the entire password with one key stroke…

@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de Not only the print quality, but the t-shirt itself was often an issue in the past I’ve found. To be fair, my experience is from a decade ago.

Trying to get some custom T-shirts made. Ordered my first one with – Let’s see what eh quality of the print and T-shirt is before I make any more 😅

hey @iolfree@tilde.club ! it’s been a while, welcome back!

@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

haha, that’s gold xD.

#randomMemory I remember when I was starting to code, like 30 years ago, not understanding why my Basic file didn’t run when I renamed it to .exe

And nowadays, I’ve seen a few Go apps in a single executable, so twtxt.exe could be a thing, he!

@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.

clearly forgot to add my twtxt feed on search.twtxt.net but now here i am hello hi

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
