@prologic@twtxt.net I tried to but couldn’t. Also, I was prompted to resend the email elsewhere… Will do in a minute. 👍

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I think you tried to email me with an encrypted GPG email? 📧 Unfortunately the inbox you sent to (managed by Google Workspaces / GMail) isn’t equipped with any GPG or my keys so I had to decrypt by hand, which sux. Are you on Signal?

Alternative message me on Salty IM (https://salty.im) at prologic@mills.io

@prologic@twtxt.net

1. The “Story of my life” (the less serious answer)
   
2. Being “The Black Sheep” from the old tale ? (the serious answer)

@prologic@twtxt.net I was replaying to your twt and thing got too long and messy, so I emailed you. I hope you don’t mind.

@Rob@jsreed5.org Coming from HTTP and discovered both at the same time, my preference might be biased towards Gemini because of the content syntax but I love both equally.

@prologic@twtxt.net hmm… it sounds like being stuck in a “Filter bubble”. 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net Checking it out right away! Thanks!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I think you’ll find it simpler to use zs

@shreyan@twtxt.net Nothing much, still trying to figure out a proper way to manage a gemlog and a phlog using Hugo.

Otherwise, I’m just exploring new tty stuff … Anything I should try?

@prologic@twtxt.net Awesome! I guess that fixed it. Unless @bender@twtxt.net sees otherwise LOL.

p.s: Broken mentions again?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You ARE AWESOME!

I was RTFMing trying to figure out how to set this up in my .vimrc Thank you!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com That’s the trick, yep. 👍 I have something like this in my .vimrc:

au BufRead,BufNewFile jenny-posting.eml setl fo-=t wrap

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Looks okay here for me, but then again I’m not as pedantic as @pedantic@arrakis.netbros.com 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Yeah I’ve been having this problem for quite sometime now. It boils down to Vi/Vim/NeoVim inserting those line breaks automatically when editing an .eml file (if I can remember the file extension correctly) … I think Jenny makes use of those. I had to delete them manually until I was told that the problem was fixed after I added the charset utf-8; to my nginx config file. I’ll try and fix this next…

@bender@twtxt.net LOL! Been there, done that! I can go on for weeks without any of it. Not even a phone, I don’t have that many responsibilities to need one on me all the time. Life is much simpler like that.

@bender@twtxt.net /me taking notes for future twts …
Sorry for the confusion lads! o.o’

@Prologic@twtxt.net can you pleas fix this line in your twtxt.txt:
# follow = dbucklin@www.davebucklin.com https://www.davebucklin.com/twtxt.txt?nick=dbucklin

It is cause this weird effect on my timeline, where you are now called dbucklin

@mckinley@twtxt.net I have a custom .tmux.conf that makes it very easy to use the multiplexer, but I agree, Zellij seems pretty robust, and intuitive. I like it! Tried compiling it, as with everything Rust, it failed miserably. Good thing there is a binary release I could download to try!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I’m definitely putting that in the list. I like tmux but I just can’t wrap my head around the controls. This looks more like a tiling window manager.

@bender@twtxt.net yeah that’s what I ended up doing but wasn’t so sure.

I’m always second guessing myself, wondering what goes first: the parenthesis () or the brackets [] …
The exclamation mark part was the easiest to remember. 😅

@mckinley@twtxt.net yes it is!
I’m using Zellij. I love how it works out of the box.

@dbucklin@www.davebucklin.com apparently Txtnish isn’t maintained anymore. if interested you could give Jenny a try.
I’ve never had to look back once I’ve had it set up with mutt following @movq@www.uninformativ.de ’s guide

@hecanjog@hecanjog.com I was a programmer for almost 20 years before I figured that out. Never too late.

@bender@twtxt.net What are we testing? 🫡

@bender@twtxt.net Seems to be working! I’m using mdom’s txtnish and I’m figuring out replies.

@someone@www.davebucklin.com testing…

@bender@twtxt.net Howdy.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Well trust me if I tell you that most of my past addictions have started with a “Just once” or a “24 hrs challenge”.

I’m reading through the Week Week In TTY thread you’ve linked earlier and oh-boy!
People went All In TTY and no X … I’m tempted! Although I do not believe I can last more than a couple of hours 😅 but I’ll keep on reading.

And again, Thank you!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh! Thank you for the link! I’m checking it right away!
I hope I don’t get slapped with a “HTTP/1.1 426 Upgrade Required” there as well.

As for Netflix and Co. I can do without for the time being. I guess I have binge watched enough content I feel like I miss missing it. 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net I looked it up, couldn’t find a proper course/tutorial. 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net I guess, you don’t get to check the logs if you host your feed file on a pubnix …

@bender@twtxt.net I’ve dropped him a message earlier on Mastodon, will let him know if he replays 👌

@dev1ls@texto-plano.xyz First replay to your first twtxt from Spain! (I guess) Welcome back in! 🖖

@bender@twtxt.net There are a couple more
I went and looked them up but I can’t imagine myself using any except for “honorificabilitudinitatibus” … It kinda sounds good and has a nice meaning I guess.

@bender@twtxt.net well there is “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious”!
I usualy hear people ask Harry Mack (a freestyle rapper) to include it in his freestyles. 😆

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Maybe something for you: 7.css - A CSS framework for recreating Windows 7 UI

@prologic@twtxt.net
That’s awesome!! Congratulations! 🎉🎉

@adi@twtxt.net I kinda bounced off learning go properly a few years back. This little toy would be a good thing to try again on, now that you mention it. Maybe.

@bender@twtxt.net To quote from the german version of ISO 27001:

Änderungen an Informationsverarbeitungseinrichtungen und Informationssystemen sollten Gegenstand von Änderungsmanagementverfahren sein.

Fuck off, you cunts. 🤣🖕

@bender@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net
I actually love that one! But no. Mine will be a simple header and a
sub-header, breaking that ugly void. I might add in a couple of links
later but that will be it. Till I make a functional one.

@bender@twtxt.net I have nothing against GoToSocial, but:

GoToSocial stores statuses, accounts, etc, in a database. This can be either SQLite or Postgres.

snac is simpler. Some JSON files and that’s it. I can read them with jq and less. I can use tar to back them up. I can hand edit them in a text editor.

I think @abucci@anthony.buc.ci and @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no are running snac? I didn’t have a closer look at snac (no intention of running it), but if that is a relatively small daemon (maybe comparable to Yarn?) that gives you access to the whole world of ActivityPub, then, well, yeah … That’s tough to beat.

Yes, I am running snac on the same VPS where I run my yarn pod. I heard of it from @stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no, so blame him 😏 snac is written in C and is one simple executable, uses very little resources on the server, and stores everything in JSON files (no databases or other integrations; easy to save and migrate your data) . It’s definitely like yarn in that respect.

I haven’t been around yarn much lately. Part of that is that I’ve been very busy at work and home and only have a limited time to spend goofing off on a social network. Part of it is that I’m finding snac very useful: I’ve connected with friends I’d previously lost touch with, I’ve found useful work-related information, I’ve found colleagues to follow, and even found interesting conferences to attend. There’s a lot more going on over there.

I guess if I had to put it simply, I’d say I have limited time to play and there are more kids in the ActivityPub sandbox than this one. That’s not a ding on yarn–I like yarn and twtxt–I’m just time constrained.

@prologic@twtxt.net Haha, that sh!t is pure (net)art!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Like deebs.net

@bender@twtxt.net It would definitely impress the Moroccan ones. Not sure about the other nationalities, though. 😅

(TL;DR: each country/region has it’s own dialect)

@bender@twtxt.net Oh, That sounds delicious! B’Saha![1]
I’m Glad you’ve had quite the productive! All I remember of mine is three chapters of an old novel at the coffee shop aaand … Now I’m here, in front of a computer. Everything in between is just Blank 😅

[1] B’saha: Moroccan word for “With health!” (a literal translation) usually used as an equivalent for the French expression “Bon Appétit!” but also used as “Congratulation!”

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Roger that! 🫡

@prologic@twtxt.net It was one of (if not THE) first feed(s) I got to follow after discovering Twtxt and setting up my own.
It was quite nice for the first couple of hours, I’ve even got to explore a couple of @dfaria.eu@dfaria.eu’s articles.

Theeeeen… Things started to feel a bit overwhelming I had to “Clean Things Up!”.
Flushed my whole Jenny/Mutt cached twtxt feed and re-synced everything all over again.

But hey,
Good evening! 🎧🎵Guns N’ Roses - Live and let die.

@bender@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net Well, Imagine getting to wake up around that same time, every, single, day. 🥱

(It ain’t as good of a live as it sounds though.)

@bender@twtxt.net TBH It was quite late (where I am) when I wrote that twt, way past 2 AM … 😅
But there wasn’t much activity during the day either. It got me wondering if there was something wrong with my cron task for fetching your feeds.

Maybe it’s just the weekends. + there isn’t much bloat content around this space as on the usual platforms anyway.
