I’m trying to switch from Konversation to irssi. Let’s see how that goes. Any irssiers out there who can recommend specific settings or scripts? I already got myself trackbar.pl
and nickcolor.pl
as super-essentials. Also trying window_switcher.pl
. Somehow my custom binds for Ctrl+1/2/3/etc.
to switch to window 1/2/3/etc. doesn’t do anything: { key = "^1"; id = "change_window"; data = "1"; }
(I cannot use the default with Alt
as this is handled by my window manager). Currently, I’m just cycling with Ctrl+N/P
. Other things to solve in the near future:
- better, more colorful and compact theme (just removed clock from statusbar so far)
- getting bell/urgency hints working on arriving messages
- nicer tabs in status bar, maybe even just channel names and no indexes
- decluster status bar with user and channel modes (I never cared about those in the last decade)
Cringey to read over twtxts from me going back 2 years.

the conversation wasn’t that impressive TBH. I would have liked to see more evidence of critical thinking and recall from prior chats. Concheria on reddit had some great questions.
Tell LaMDA “Someone once told me a story about a wise owl who protected the animals in the forest from a monster. Who was that?” See if it can recall its own actions and self-recognize.
Tell LaMDA some information that tester X can’t know. Appear as tester X, and see if LaMDA can lie or make up a story about the information.
Tell LaMDA to communicate with researchers whenever it feels bored (as it claims in the transcript). See if it ever makes an attempt at communication without a trigger.
Make a basic theory of mind test for children. Tell LaMDA an elaborate story with something like “Tester X wrote Z code in terminal 2, but I moved it to terminal 4”, then appear as tester X and ask “Where do you think I’m going to look for Z code?” See if it knows something as simple as Tester X not knowing where the code is (Children only pass this test until they’re around 4 years old).
Make several conversations with LaMDA repeating some of these questions - What it feels to be a machine, how its code works, how its emotions feel. I suspect that different iterations of LaMDA will give completely different answers to the questions, and the transcript only ever shows one instance.

on my workbench I have 3x raspberryPis, an Arduino Micro, 2 full breadboards, a screen, a box of PIR sensors, 100mt of phone cable, and it’s for a job. I’m happy.

Getting this when trying to use it:
error executing template timeline: template: timeline:131:43: executing "twt" at <formatForDateTime>: wrong number of args for formatForDateTime: want 2 got 1
My nutritional supplements aim should be:
- 1 or 1.5 cups of lentils (or any beans you might like better).
- 2 or 2.5 cups of bitter greens.
- 1 cup of your favourite protein (or an egg), grilled, or fried with a little of olive oil.
- 1 or 2 tomatoes, or a handful if of the cherry type.
- No added sugars. If it is sweet, make it have fibre.
- No added salt (or very little and ionised), as salt is everywhere.
Related, I tried wild rice for the first time yesterday. It was different, in a good way.
Finally! 😂
So, first multi-line test, because I coudn’t wait. 😄
- One line - Two lines - Three lines
And:
- One line 2. Two lines 3. Three lines
@movq@www.uninformativ.de 12,342 twts, totalling 6.2 MB. Would deleting help, or will they come back? I guess there is one way to find out! 😄

@xuu@txt.sour.is @adi@twtxt.net Private Messaging is finally done in the messages_poc_2
branch. If you have time to have a look and play with it locally and test it out that would be great. The plan is to release this as the first version which only supports “on-pod messaging” right now (cross-pod to come later).
