Have fun @johanbove@johanbove.info and see -(or read?)- you soon!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Absolutely! Truly amazing work and excellent explanations.

I’m pretty sure they didn’t tell us this in school either.

I don’t remember what topic it was, but some of the maths lectures at uni were heaps better in linking several matters together. In school we were always told: And now for something completely different, we start a new topic, so when you kids haven’t understood the previous one, worry not, now you got the chance to maybe get this one and improve your maths grade. Only at uni we were actually taught that it’s in fact basically exactely the same thing as something else, just with some slightly tweaked rules. If I only were told this a decade earlier or so. It would have made stuff sooo much easier.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Opps! My bad, I had a BotFilter activated which lead you to a 403. Fixed!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hmm, works here. Maybe some temporary problem that has been fixed by now?

Thanks @prologic@twtxt.net !

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Hmmm:

Could not fetch: HTTPError('403 Client Error: Forbidden for url: https://uplegger.eu/twtxt.txt')

🤔

Is there any rule or information about images in the twtxt specification?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hahaha, no worries. :-)

Thanks @bender@twtxt.net for the feedback. I fixed and expanded the article. I’m sorry for my poor interaction. Furthermore, I’m reading and writing while programming a client in Emacs.

You are clearly a time traveler, @xuu@txt.sour.is!

@prologic@twtxt.net That also has the downside of fitting right in the write-only code category. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ha, that’s cool, I wasn’t aware of 2024 being one of these years.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de my util-linux 2.40.2 version of cal seems to do week 53.

@bender@twtxt.net im a fisherman.

@prologic@twtxt.net, do you use zsh on macOS, or do you change it to, say, bash?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, a movqOS, that’s super cool! :-)

Yeah, glossy screens are straight from hell. :-D What’s this spooky wind chime background music?

Anyway, have great fun learning more and experimenting with this low level stuff!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Unfortunately, there is no shortage of terrible UI designers. To be fair, I’m probably one of them when it comes to the point.

Danke, @arne@uplegger.eu. Ich werde berichten.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev nos comparte su artículo “twtxt, la red social en texto plano, descentralizada y minimalista”

I would like to share my lastest article about #twtxt on my blog: https://programadorwebvalencia.com/twtxt-la-red-social-en-texto-plano-descentralizada-y-minimalista/ . Attention! It is a Spanish

@prologic@twtxt.net Yes! then there was this fun breaker of an article but hey, I ain’t doing it for security 😆 so I’ll just keep on keeping on.

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m scratching my head already trying to figure this one out 🤣 not sure if just mirroring ldd’s output into my image’s content would do, -I’ve Just found about that one by the way.- but I’ll never know until I try.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yes building OCI images with no userland to speak of is great isn’t it 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Dud! you should see the updated version! 😂 I have just discovered the scratch #container image and decided I wanted to play with it… I’m probably going to end up rebuilding a LOT of images.

My 400th Twtxt Post will be about you: wishing you, reader of my Twtxt feed, all the best for the coming year and most of all love, health, and that your projects and work may contribute to the greater good of all mankind. I will be taking a social-media break for a couple of weeks to enjoy this special time with my family. I hope you will be able to do this with your family and friends too.

Ich habe mir einen twtxt-Log-Parser geschrieben, der mich per Mail informiert, wenn jemand “neues” auf meinen Feed zugreift. Mal gucken, wie es läuft.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Looks fun. Also kind of looks like APL and Forth had a baby on Jupyter.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Hello!

@kh1b@kh1b.org Welcome to twtxt!

@prologic@twtxt.net Haha, nice! :-D This is the real one today: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2024-12-20/01.jpg It was a bit more intense some minutes ago, though.

Moin @arne@uplegger.eu, herzlich willkommen! Ich bin gerade auf https://uplegger.eu/blog/popelfinger gestoßen und war sofort sehr begeistert. :-D Mal sehen, ob ich die anderen an einem der Feiertage davon überzeugt bekomme, das mal auszuprobieren. :-)

Glad you like them, @aelaraji@aelaraji.com. Anytime!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Beautiful shots as usual! thank you for sharing these with us. 🤘

I’ve started a draft over at: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtxt.dev/src/branch/main/exts/webfinger.md

@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.
