@prologic @bender Exponential backoff? Seems like the right thing to do when a server isn't accepting your connections at all, and might also be a reasonable compromise if you consider 404 to be a temporary failure.
@xuu poor lady! 😩 I have trained mum to call me with anything remotely fishy. She pretty much don’t trust anything. On top of the weekends, when I visit them, I usually go to their house once or twice during working days, to check on emails, calls, or funny looking snail mail.
@prologic if a twtxt.txt is not found, under which conditions will it be found again, and can something be done if say, it isn’t found for X amount of hours, days, months?
@bender Unfoetunately that isn't actually true as it depend on the ingress architecture and networking.

Its supposed to be tied to your phone number.. but they managed to get it activated on a different device some how. /shrug

@lyse saw it, thanks! It pains me to see that speed. I mean, I blink slower than what it took that guy to climb that wall. LOL.
@prologic no worries mate, and thanks! I wonder if something could be done for feeds rendering 404, so that they get automatically “unfollowed”, and removed.

A twtxt.txt file should never spit out a 404, unless it’s no more.

@lyse Hmmm, the user agents indicate two different pods. 🤔 Most of them are twtxt.net, though, only one user is something else. 🤔

@movq No wonder with all these yarnds. :-D
@movq Maybe they're not all coming from yarnd, but one of them could be from yarns, the search engine. Just a wild guess. My twtxt.txt access log doesn't record the source IP address, so I don't know.

And aren't there any other hosted yarnd instances? Maybe it was never really implemented, but I remember @prologic thought about hosting dedicated yarnds for others in the past. Could be well over a year ago, not sure.

Another possibility might be a forgotten development instance idling around (or not so much :-D) in the background. I think the default user agent points to txtxt.net, not example.com. At least when I last checked the yarnd code. That was also several months ago.
@mckinley Oh, I didn't know they're not native to the US. These bushes grow very rapidly like weeds. I know a few places where they have been heavily cut back, almost cleared completely, but a year later, they've already exceeded two meters of height again. Pretty cool. :-)

@movq It's very yummy. :-) Unfortunately, the mustard manifacturer changed the traditional slip-on caps to screw caps. Haven't seen the old jars anymore.

Speaking of web server logs: Unless someone posts one of my blog posts on HackerNews (I never do that myself, don’t even have an account), my twtxt.txt file is always *the most requested resource*. 😂 It easily gets several thousand hits, way more than the blog’s Atom feed. 😂

@prologic I didn’t want to hijack @bender’s thread: There’s two things that feel a bit unexpected regarding the requests of 159.196.9.199 in my logs:

1. It doesn’t respect HTTP 301 and instead asks for the same URL every time, thus needing a redirect.
2. Is this *one* Yarn pod or several? I’m seeing multiple requests from this same IP with *different user agents*. It’s not a lot, just about 5 different ones (every couple of minutes), but I thought that Yarn only issued *one* such request? 🤔 You know, when several users follow the same feed, Yarn would only fetch that feed once?

[47°09′54″S, 126°43′49″W] Storm recedes -- back to normal work
@stigatle @prologic @bender We had some lovely, cloudy 20°C today with some light rain mixed in. But by the end of the week, we're back at 30°C and beyond. I will definitely enjoy the 15°C at night the next few days.
Transformed four kilograms of blackberries into a bit over three kilograms of blackberry jelly. https://lyse.isobeef.org/brombeergelee-2024-08-19/ The leftover jelly did not fit in prepared canning jars, so I dumped it in a regular drinking glass (which was a mustard glass in its former life): Jelly in drinking glass The rest is cooling off on the bench outside.
Well, this one (ferengi.one) isn't hammered (that was my dramatic animal guide showing off, LOL). I believe this one is simply "normal" twtxt.txt usage.
Also hammering ferengi.one.
@prologic it is kind of hammering my VPS, specifically netbros.com, every single day.

@prologic I think it was some mix of phish and social engineering. She didn't have the multifactor enabled. But i think she had clicked a message that had a fake login. She talked to someone on a phone and they made her do some things.

I never got the whole story of how it happened.
