Since it's now past April 1st, I can finally post the secret hidden caninine, for those who did not find it, during the over half a month, it's been hidden on my websites.
The link for additional context is: https://thecanine.ueuo.com/dogcow.html - you just have to click the image on there.
@eapl.me awesome, and thank you! Sorry I missed all that in the noise. I truly am a TL;DR fan! 😂
@lyse I do agree "the rules of the web", are far too loose - at least the syntax ones. I do think backwards compatibility is necessary.
As for my website, it might be visually very similar, to how it looked since its creation, many years ago, but it is frequently improved. Features that originally used JavaScript, changed to HTML and CSS components, code simplified, optimised to withstand browser updates and new screen resolutions,... Even a good chunk of the errors on your list, were already addressed and I plan to address the rest soon.
Just find it a bit depressing, that my attempt to bring back some of the old Internet spirit, by making a hidden easteregg page page for this years April 1st, was met with people complaining about April fools day jokes and you insinuating my website sucks.
I am confused (maybe I missed what they said, or didn't read well). What was "Sonora Taqueria" answer to the cease and desist demand letter[1]? Did the accusers simply dropped their suit efford, or was "Sonora Taqueria" able to make their case (see [1])?

@eapl.me a “minimalistic” one too, just like Yarnd. 😅
I’m playing with ratterplatter again: It’s a toy that watches disk I/O and emulates the noise of a real hard disk. (Linux only.) It uses sound samples from one of my older disks.
I tried a different approach at estimating the disk activity and I think I finally got it right (after almost 10 years … 🤦).
Demo, booting a Windows 2000 VM: https://movq.de/v/1400544cc6/2kboot-ratterplatter-2.mp4
(For this purpose alone, I put a couple of mini speakers into my PC case, so that the noise comes from the right place: https://movq.de/v/a3b2dc0932/speakers.jpg)
The results aren’t too bad, but this thing can’t be super accurate due to the huge I/O caches that we have these days. For the video, I dropped the caches before booting Windows, otherwise you would have heard almost nothing.
FWIW, if you don’t know it yet, this is the equivalent for proper keyboard sound: https://github.com/zevv/bucklespring
@movq @xuu That sounds like kat! :-)
Is there some Makefile shenanigans going on maybe? $V
and $C
being swallowed by the Makefile. I fell in that trap again the other day.
yeah its from Yarn.. should be $VERSION@$COMMIT
and its supposed to be replaced with the actual version and commit.
@movq Oh yeah, take some pictures when you do. :-)
Just saw this user agent popping up:
yarnd/ERSION@OMMIT go1.23.4 (+https://.../twtxt.txt; @username)
ERSION? OMMIT? 😅
@bender @eapl.me @xuu @movq Glad you all agree. :-D My SOAP knowledge is extremely rusty, I luckily had not to deal with that crap anymore for quite some years now. I even couldn't remember the XML declaration and had to look it up. ;-)
@lyse … I was fully expecting this to be a WSDL file. 😂
@prologic I only buy stuff like that, for example games on GOG.COM. Or simply CDs or DVDs. (Rarely I “buy” a movie on some popular streaming service, fully aware that this is just “renting it”.)
But yeah, I sadly have to agree with @bender. 😢
@lyse Aww, this reminds me that I haven’t done any Fraktur/calligraphy in a hell of a long time. I should pick that up again. It’s always nice to see this on old buildings.
@lyse this is 1990's certified approved
@lyse Yeah, to be fair, there’s not much of a difference other than a few grace notes (and just lower frequencies). I was mostly just fooling around with this one. 🥴
@movq Yeah, I'm also disappointed each and every time.
@lyse This is so crazy to me. When I think “forest”, I assume “untouched nature”, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. 🫤

Are you all forgetting today’s April’s Fool? 🤣
@thecanine And this is exactly why there are quirks modes in browsers…
I'm actually glad I don't have to deal with all this web shit and work with compilers that hit me in the face when I do something illegal. :-)
@arne Oh no, you are in front of the line!!
[47°09′22″S, 126°43′10″W] Storm recedes -- back to normal work
@prologic that's you, and me, and some others. Sadly, though, a huge majority (I don't have sources, or numbers, but "trust me, bro" :-P) will simply, gladly, and unapologetically, pirate.
[47°09′15″S, 126°43′24″W] Wind speed: 55kph -- batteries low
@prologic Fully agreed. I'm far more likely to buy such mediums when DRM-free. I never go near Amazon eBooks etc because of their lock-in, and I have a Kobo eReader which needs to have the books side loaded unless directly from the Kobo store. I prefer DRM-free files every time.
@andros That's a shame. But here's the thing about piracy. If I could download a PDF or MP3/OGG of a Book I'd happily pay for this. If I could download an MP3/OGG of some Music I would pay for this. If I could download an MP4 of a Movie I would pay for this.
The reason piracy exists at all is economics and greed. If you make something affordable and convenient, there's no need to steal.

@lyse Thanks for taking a look, and for pointing out the mixture of tabs and spaces.
I think I'll leave reachability.c alone, since my intention there was to use an indent level of one tab, and the spaces are just there to line up a few extra things. I fixed reachability_with_stack.cc though.

@bender nope.. its causing OOM issues currently.
@lyse you must be loved by all the web developers in town! But ok, I have added all the missing semicolons, that should technically be there, but them not being there, does not make a difference.
Font color change inside every summary element, was a very deliberate choice, to color the text, but leave the arrow black (same as website background). But ok, I rewrote the CSS to hide the arrows and make all summaries white - since this also works better, with some dark theme enforcing browser extensions.
HOWEVER "p" as a child element of "summary" is a thing, that as far as I know, all browsers respect and if a font color is applied only once, I don't think it matters, if it's done through HTML or CSS, you smart ass.
[47°09′34″S, 126°43′58″W] Non-significative results -- sampling finished
@thecanine I found it! This looks like colored easter eggs when squinting.
There's a secret art easter egg thing, hidden on my website ( https://thecanine.ueuo.com ), for this years April fools event - it's been there for a few weeks, but now I can finally give hints.
Okay trying SqliteCache
again with a slight tweak. I _might_ have to rethink the hard-coded LIMIT 50
.
Going back to old MemoryCache
for now and going to bed 🛌
Hmmm this needs a bit more work.
And we're back. On the new Sqlitecache
🥳
[47°09′30″S, 126°43′05″W] Not enough data -- sampling finished
@kat They all just wanted to be friends with a cool gal like you. ;-) It's sad that putting things openly on the internet just waits to be raided by script kiddies, bots or spammers eventually.
Ooops I ran a docker build
on one of my production nodes (_the ingress node_) 😱
@movq Yeah, like nearly all of them. There is the so called Bannwald, where it typically is not allowed to log, but there's only one in my entire county and I haven't even visted it. I should change that. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bannwald
👋 Folks that use this pod, I'll be rolling out an experimental new caching backend to this pod shortly. Stay tuned. Please provide feedback either here via Twtxt or on IRC. Thanks! 🙏

@movq That's really great! I can't tell the difference to the original. :-)
I see nothing wrong with the "implications". I would call them features. I think this will be the best thing that happened to Yarn since the subject extension.

There are however a few implications to note:
- It will be possibly to page through much larger quantities of twts per feed, this is potentially unlimited (_depends on disk space_)
- Automated Feeds (_bots_) like @tiktok will now behave/display very differently. You will see all it's historical Twts, whereas before you'd only see the one because the MemoryCache
's behavior was to "replace" Twts.
I'm _hoping_ everything else remains the same and true to what we've collectively built and to spec. Replies work, Forks work, various views, filters and so on still work. I'm developing this new cache in a way that uses a "delegate" pattern and a double read / double write with metrics so I can over time see that none of the "old cache" is used anymore.
I _think_ my new SqliteCache
is almost ready for prime time 🤞

Registry format is its own thing. It takes the regular feed and appends nick \t uri \t
to it. Its something that existed before yarn got big. There is still a bit of work but I will put together a ui for it to make it easier to view and navigate.
