in the same vein, i think content warnings can be faithfully implemented by parsing CW: ..., tw // ..., etc. from the first line of a post followed by two newlines, like how they're used on platforms that don't have content warnings
at first i dismissed the idea of likes on twtxt as not sensible...like at all — then i considered they could just be published in a metadata field (though that field could get really unruly after a while)
retwts are plausible, as "RE: https://example.com/twtxt.txt#abcdefg", the hash could even be the original timestamp from the feed to make it human readable/writable, though im extremely wary of clogging up timelines
i _thought_ quote twts could be done extremely sensibly, by interpreting a mention+hash at the end of the twt differently to when placed at the beginning — but the twt subject extension requires it be at the beginning, so the clean fallback to a normal reply i originally imagined is out of the question — it could still be possible (reusing the retwt format, just like twitter!) but i'm not convinced it's worth it at that point
is any of this in the spirit of twtxt? no, not in the slightest, lmao
@lyse hahaha very rarely!!! it wasn't quite a sky scraper, just a few floors up, but my perspective may be skewed because i'm used to high buildings :P

I have a feeling that learning to play electric double bass *through an amplifier* was a big mistake.
At the core, this is an acoustic instrument. If you play it through an amp, you will instinctively only do the bare minimum to get *some* sound going, because the amp does the heavy lifting. But it’s just not right.
This is a very physical instrument. It needs a lot of force and strength – in comparison, an electric bass guitar is almost flimsy and delicate. I need to “feel” what’s going on and that’s just not the case when using headphones.
I feel like I wasted ~3 years. 🫤 But maybe it’ll get better from now on …~
This is just one instrument: Electric bass guitar + EBow. And echo/delay on top. But it’s a single track, single take. It amazes me quite a bit how much you can do with that little thing. 🤯
Observador a fazer debates autárquicos, a convidar CH mas não BE ou Livre (vem, convidaram-nos em Almada, mas só aí... devia ser porque estavam a contar com eles para fazer oposição ao PS)... acho que sim, faz todo o sentido, não vale a pena esconder ao que vão.
search page, bookmarks page, improved thread view (that i will probably improve further), as well as a logo and a whole ui redesign. it is truly all coming together...were i to mark any items off the roadmap :p
@zvava I reckon there's currently nobody working on v2. Which timezone are you in? Just post your questions here or head over to #yarn.social at libera.chat for a more realtime conversation via IRC.
Thanks to a blog post by ~solderpunk and the presence of ImageMagick on my pubnix, all of my weirdcore art (apart from the animated works) is now under 32K in size! Honestly, I'd say the lower JPEG quality actually adds to the vibe of the images: something from the early web, taken permanently out of context and long forgotten.~
@movq Whoa! Nice shots! I'm supposed to be able to see it from where I am right now, but it doesn't look particularly red yet. Always love a good eclipse...
is there someone (ideally not in the opposite timezone to me) who'd be willing to let me bother them with technical questions abt twtxtv2 and/or yarn's inner workings? :3
@thecanine I'd expect especially power users not to use the web frontend. Unfortunately, in order to submit MR reviews that's very often just the only option.
beginnings of remote feed parsing..! the fact hashing just sort of works with the minuscule libraries i found for base32 and blake2b still amazes me (mentions are being eaten as html tags)
@kat Uuhh, a rooftop concert! That sounds sick. I first learned about this in Electric Callboy's tour report. They played the same location last year.
Heck yeah, you managed to be in the front rows. :-) I never heard about Rilo Kiley before, but the two songs I just listened to are good. Something to relax to.
i went to a rilo kiley concert the other day and it was so special to me... i teared up at some of the songs but when "a better son/daughter" came on, i full on cried. what an amazing experience.

Sabemos que (no hemisfério norte) a noite mais longa do ano é em Dezembro, mas em Lamego, cidade das Noites Longas, é de 7 para 8 de Setembro que acontece a "Grande Noite da Romaria de Portugal" (os Lamecenses chamam-lhe "a noitada"). Arruadas por rusgas populares que alegremente percorrem a cidade cantando temas populares e cantigas ao desafio, pelo rufar típico dos bombos e alegres toques de concertinas, preenchem a noite até ao amanhecer - é a noite em que a cidade não dorme.
Já não tenho idade para essas coisas (mental, que física sou ultrapassado na boa por muitos foliões!), e amanhã é dia de trabalho, pelo que este ano me fiquei pela batalha das flores que aconteceu durante a tarde e para a qual - imaginem! - não se encontravam fotos com licenças livres, algo que aproveito para colmatar 😇 Gigantones a inaugurar a batalha das flores O carro alegórico da cidade de Lamego Carro alegórico aos 200 anos do Camilo, que escreveu sobre as Noites Longas de Lamego Carro alegórico ao 25 de Abril, com um boletim de voto marcado de "Futuro", e cravos vermelhos à sua frente
@kat Completely off-topic, I didn't know that the English language picked up the German word "Ersatz". Discovering things like that always brings me joy. It has some interesting other properties, though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ersatz_good#Etymology
@movq Holy shit, that's insane! :-D I tried it, but i'm absolutely terrible at these type of games. I'm having trouble with the keys to move around. Maybe after ages I would pick it up and it becomes natural. I just was never a real gamer.
I will definitely try to read through the code, though! This looks sick. 8-)
No AI being used is really great. However, the same clips shown over and over again and some images being mirrored was quite annoying to me. Also, there were some quite terrible computer animations and sometimes the narration and picture didn't match at all. Talking about the medieval period and then showing an image from the 18th hundred or so. What the heck?
These production issues made me sceptical pretty much early on. So I quickly crosschecked Wikipedia. But it seems spot on from what I've read. Very good. Also, the narrator's voice was really nice to listen to.

It was much more purple before
Recently transplanted echinacea flowers. Taking into account the petals aspect, they aren't very happy... 😞
