To be able to centralize all my social activities (If I had) in twtxt.txt.
For example I post a family picture in Facebook, a stupid meme in twitter, and I like 1 video on youtube (that I want to share), in some clicks :
2024-08-13T07:36:15Z\tLook how my puppies are growing
2024-08-14T07:36:15Z\tHow hard can it be ? 🤣

something like :
- centralized export
- converting it to one model
- twtxt.txt it
I just want to test it. I am very curious about all those solutions. Can be good to centralize all my socials activity (ok I have none but ... still) to create a twtxt out of it.
@prologic me too, I only go to the web page when I want to do more advanced stuff .
@prologic it is good solutions. Just the a/ is hard to implement if they have a mobile phone with 5G (solutions exist though). and the point b/ is the most important, a continuous discussion about the dangers.
Social networks are very dangerous for teenagers. When your teen needs one consider giving him a Flip Phone. And watch all new device connecting to the wifi because the « friends » of the teen will give him, one of their old mobile (that he will hide).

@movq 
it won't have more, I'm sorry, it is my fault. I wanted to create my own training of Muay Boran, and for that I created a program that transforms a youtube channel in twtxt, with the goal to have an alerting that gives me 4 training videos per weekend, the time was suppose to increment + 1 week at each 4 videos. (so I could read it in my feed, each saturday morning like "don't forget to train on those videos today") BUT I messed up the time part.
Sorry again.
PS: Yes still active user (reader).
**Lesson 1: Muay Boran - Jab to lead Elbow**
Ancient Muay Thai technique to jab and lead elbow strike. This can be done by going low-high, high-low, or high-high to throw your opponent off. It can be used as a set-up or follow-up move.

@prologic yes I'm real, remember we even had some video chat together.
@mckinley You are giving me ideas for a fork of yarnd :D
@lyseyse But a well done gingerbread is so good.
@prologic Don't ask me, I just translated what he said, and what was his thinking, because you wanted to know.
Hi @prologic I tried to understand the point of @lucidiot, and what he actually doesn't like is not the extensions on itself (even if he prefers #hashtag instead of # < hashtag url> (that I understand)), because he also uses some extension.
Actually what he doesn't like, is the fear that you may extend the protocol and once it's adopted by everybody, make it proprietary and oblige everybody to only uses your platform. (here https://brainshit.fr/read/242)

As you may not know I lived in France, and french student are often like that (specifically Parisians) . So I won't bother too much, on what he thinks.
@prologic You know that haters gonna hate. I don't see any valuable discussion or thinking from @lucidiot explaining his statement, waiting for that I won't give much value on a non explaining post.
And above of that which extension didn't he like :
- metadata (not specific to yarn) and he also uses
- subject (sorry not specific to yarn either)
- Hashtag (not specific to yarn)
- Hash (ok makes one, and he may not like (I don't either), but it's practical)

Do we have a need to break the compatibility?
But for a spare phone, it's cool. And the coolest thing is that you can run a terminal (and everything that goes with it (currently playing with python3). I think it is more useful like a tablet.
The Phone is cool, you can call, text, take pictures, go to internet thanks to the browser (Morph Browser).
After all Apps integration are crap, there are not really apps, but rather web-apps (just a front page for the web version), so you miss all the integration like receiving notification, cast videos ......
I'm pretty surprise, it's very good. You even have a lot of apps. Let me try a bit more, and I will let you know.
Don’t be jealous:
@portlandbeer what is she doing ? Why does she have so much phones front of her ? Is it a kind of try to cluster all their CPU together ?

Through the years I read some « old » IT books and they are still good. My favorite one is the Dragon Book by J. Ullman.
@bender if you like history you can read the books of Cornelius Tacitus (a Roman historian) and Titus Flavius Josephus (a Roman Jew historian). They talk about history in general and they mention Jesus at some point.
@xuu actually it’s not so hard to say based on some bible scripture if you really want to know I can try to redo the calculations and post them.
@eaplmx, Very good. I love it.
(by the way Jesus is born end of September beginning of October)
@prologic I hate youtube ads. specially when I have to wait that skip button to appear, or worst I can't push that skip button.
Can you block apps that uses cloud like AWS/GC/.... without blocking entirely every site using AWS and GC ?
Yep it's the best as parent we can do for them. What do you use to block, I was using open dns, but there were some things that it cannot block (like apps using cloud AWS/GC/Azure/...)
it's oki, it was in June, since then, thanks to God, we are better.
yep that question is more important.
how far do you think they get since then ? As much as I found the idea cool to find clusters of sociopath (I hope they never had enough training data set), it's a bit scary based on the book (I mute the first one that talks about the movie instead of the great book : talking about minority report)

Genuine question : How comes stupid conspiracist knew it before governments and journalists ?
@bender, Thanks, I should maybe read that magazine so, I like to see a lot of different points of view.
@mckinley, I never understood that one, here in Canada they were saying in the beginning that the virus came from chinese eating bats or something like this. Why have not told the truth since the beginning ??
thanks I love data.
For the echo chamber I'm doing a study on it. And for now see the opposite.
Example : Someone that is into flat earth "theory" (for example), thanks to the recommendation algorithm will find more content about it, and liking it, the recommendation loop will show him more and more till the point he is surrounded by that content (that part is already validated), then he will begin to see others "theory" near the "flat earth" cluster. I think that at the end (not yet there) that person will be looking (believing?) that the pope is an alien and he is the one ruling the earth. (at least he will know the truth about aliens :D joking of course)
And each time I talk with people, I assume I am maybe wrong. How could I know that in some subject I may be wrong, if people doesn't debate with me, but just call for my canceling.
I can do research but :
- in some cases I may not do research because mostly I don't care, so I have a wrong view point, and I don't know.
- If I do research I may stay in my echo chamber, not even knowing where to search.
- Maybe some research will indicate me the right direction, but it will be very costly ( a simple debating sentence, may be more indicating)
- And I have the right to be wrong, I have the right to don't know everything, I even (if I stay in the law) have the right to be an asshole (I hope I'm not one though :D)

@abucci I mostly agree with you in many points, I will read the points you are talking about. For the echo chamber, I tend to disagree a bit, becasue you may be in an echo chamber without knowing it, thus not being able to go out, if you don't see people debating in those echo chamber. One of the biggest echo chambers are the social network recommendation system, you may be recommended a lot of view like yours, and without knowing stay in that echo chamber (youtube is great for that, I mean for letting you around what you are comfortable with).
@bender most of the people are not extreme, so taking an extreme example to validate a today's behavior it has no much point. But I will try to answer your question. First if I was in Germany during those times, I hope that I would have been in the good side of history (I hope so because I grew up around jews family), then if it had been the case I think I will have been arrested, and it is when I would have stopped talking (but at least I'm sure I won't have stopped).
What I loved to do is take some intensive course online, where I had to program hours per day, to achieve the course. unfortunately after 80% (almost 2 month) I had to stop, (no more time), so I never graduated. I wanted to restart (because I had all the code) but my PC burnt and I lost everything.
I still believe that debating is the most peaceful way to deal with disagreement because
@abucci, the point on debating in social network, is not stopping people from spreading bad ideas. Is to make everybody else that look at the debate think, and not fall on those bad ideas, by hiding the bad ideas, and not debating them, we may push others people to believe in them, and we may push people that already believe in them to stay in an echo chamber and become worse.
@bender the problem with that sentence is that if one day two people may disagree, and they may convince themself that the other is spreading hate speech,/disinformation or worse than the other is a nazi, and ask for physical harm.
waiting for we define what is misinformation, I will continue dressing like :
Just to be sure (of course it's an attempt to do a joke)
@prologic I agree with you, we should be discussing ideas openly and transparently. Because it's though discussion that we can get the reality. As @bender says "people spreading things they believe to be right", maybe we are ourselves spreading false claims, without knowing, we can only know by exchanging ideas, and being open. The biggest question is what is "misinformation", I believe the answer change according your beliefs. Many times we have seen what was categorize as "official" misinformation, being actually real.
My account in mastodon is dying as well @prologic is right twtxt is better and decentralized.
I want to build the same for my kids.
@prologic I would like to agree with you but I saw well informed parents with well informed kids , and on teenagers years have been sharing nudes like all their friends.
I’m unfortunately well aware of that shit. And believe me don’t get your kids to use internet or social media before 18.
Social media should be forbidden before 18.

@mckinley I had the same though coming back from weekend. I guess is nice, maybe we should adapt our use of yarn or find a way to adapt yarn to our use.
I love the "RSS appear to have been duct-taped to the specification as an afterthought" part.
I'm now digging in how Mastodon moderates. Will let you know.
@prologic I don't know, or their search engine is really bad (what I think), or there is string moderation against news coming from brazil (may be true as well, as many journalist and politician had been censored recently)?
