@mckinley Yes, over 20 years ago, a hard disk died. Not completely, only some parts of it, but it was enough to destroy ~30 GB or something like that.
I bought a lot of DVDs over time and many of them have become unreadable. Star Trek DS9 is among the victims, parts of TNG, parts of X-Files. Really annoying. I didn’t have the required disk space to make backups and, honestly, didn’t think they would die so quickly. When/if I buy movies these days, I either make a backup right away or I treat those DVDs as “will die soon”. 🫤
CDs regularly die, too, although not as often as DVDs.
And of course, lots of floppy disks are dead now. 😂🫤~
YouTube introduces a “stable volume” feature:
https://movq.de/v/ad0dd48aac/a.jpg
Once filmmakers realize that people just want stable volume instead of SUPER LOUD SECTIONS (…andreallyquietones…), then maybe I can finally remove the limiter from my pipewire filter chain. 🥴

@aelaraji Why not, give it a shot! 😅
I think I even integrated my password manager into tmux at some point. There’s a lot that you can do.

Private life? Sure. There was a regular community event called “A week in the TTY” over at nixers.net, where we spent a week only in text mode. It was easily doable.
There are some things where a graphical browser is pretty much mandatory these days. Online banking comes to mind. I *could* in theory physically go to the bank, but I’m way too lazy for that. 😂
Netflix is more popular nowadays and I wouldn’t want to miss that, either.

@sorenpeter Not bad, maybe let’s go back to 98.css. 😃
@bender It feels like the current cycle has been going on for a very long time now, almost 20 years. 😩 But I might be wrong here, maybe it started later.

Of all the retro OSes that I’ve got running, SuSE 6.4 is clearly the most powerful one. It comes with a ton of software and development tools. Windows 2000, which was released around the same time, is basically “empty” in comparison.
But of course, none of that mattered. No *popular* software, no adoption. 😅 And yes, things like configuring the X server were stupid hard back then.

@prologic It’s always been super niche, but I think in the age of Twitter more people have been looking for free/libre alternatives than these days, because Mastodon is a big thing now and has mostly replaced Twitter. Mastodon is free/libre, lots of instances, lots of communities. I have a feeling that Yarn/twtxt is mostly appealing to us nerds and minimalists.
I still love the core ideas of twtxt. It’s great for hardcore minimalists. Yarn.social is great for people willing to run a server daemon. I still think all of this is a good thing.
We have certainly lost lots of momentum, though. Plus, there appear to be simpler alternatives to full blown Mastodon now. I think @abucci and @stigatle are running snac? I didn’t have a closer look at snac (no intention of running it), but if that is a relatively small daemon (maybe comparable to Yarn?) that gives you access to the whole world of ActivityPub, then, well, yeah … That’s tough to beat.
Not sure what my point is. 🤔 For me, it’s easy: I’ll keep using twtxt because all I have to do is host a text file. Dead simple, I love it.
It all depends on what your plans for Yarn.social are. 🤔

If you’re using jenny on Python 3.12, it will spit out a deprecation warning regarding datetime.utcnow(). This will be fixed in the next release.

Well, there was one subtle bug: jenny did not fetch archived twts from your own feed (only from other people). I just happened to wipe all twts/cache from my disk, so I noticed that all my old stuff was missing. It’s a corner case, but it’ll be fixed in the next release.

I don’t know why or how, but using gtk_window_set_geometry_hints() has the desired effect (now?). Reading GTK’s source code is too convoluted to find out what’s going on here. I can’t find a corresponding Wayland protocol.
Sway gets *very* slow when resizing such a window, so I’m a bit inclined to think that GTK does some weird trickery to get this to work. 🤔
Either way, xiate now sets geometry hints again and floating windows have the correct size now. Finally.
