@movq so glad I don’t use Firefox! And now I will pretend I haven’t seeing your screenshot. Hahahahaha!
@movq I don’t see the utility, nor artistry in it, but if it works for you, 🥳! 😅
@lyse I have never used a paper calendar. Before I was 23-24 years old I didn’t use a calendar at all. Since I was 24, I have used pocket computer based ones, until today. I have a personal calendar, and a family shared one. So do wife, and children.
Come to think of it, I don’t use writing/scribbling paper at all!
@lyse deeply honored to be used as an example, when illustrating things that will break! :-D <3
@andros I think that by "starting again" they meant "starting over", as in, completely dropping it, and starting with a blank slate.
@prologic mentions randomly break. I tried mentioning @lyse/@movq (in that form), and didn’t work, breaking weirdly, adding twtxt.net to one of them. Then editing added a visible hash.
Dear god, Yarn is so full of "surprises", not even funny.
(#cwfxolq) @movq / @lyse, well, I was wrong. It doesn't merit congratulations. Boy, that 2032 asteroid is starting to look quite appealing...
@movq/, well, I was wrong. It doesn't merit congratulations. Boy, that 2032 asteroid is starting to look quite appealing...
@prologic they had elections, and conservatives won (the dreaded AfD didn't take majority, and most likely will not be forming coalition with the winning party). Not a perfect outcome (that never happens), but it could have been much worse, I think.
Maybe @lyse and/or @movq can expand.
Hmm, it seems it isn't super great, but it could have been worse.
I heard that congratulations to Germany are in order, is that right? If so, congratulations!
@twtxt.net right, until they do. Remember we found collisions in this very, very small “ecosystem”.
@twtxt.net remember, for anything that may sound appealing to you, the party behind all this is the equivalent of the Liberal Party of Australia, and you said they are “fat liars”, yes?
@twtxt.net it seems they are the Australian equivalent of the US Republican Party. Being liars is just a nibble of it.
@twtxt.net agree with none. Project 2025, go fuck yourself! (pardon my French)
So, are we muting/blocking the "DMers"? I am starting a list, and I am checking it twice.
@lyse it depends if you already have the needed libraries, and auxiliary packages installed. If you do, then a few hundred MiB, for sure.
@movq not at all. Almost everyone I know uses an iPhone, so Messages is the standard. Many others simply use Facebook Messenger.
@lyse and by „install\n the package "imagemagick"“ you mean installing a multi-GiB set of tools and libraries. :-D

@movq I cannot start to tell you how much I despise WhatsApp, but if I want to keep in touch with family and friends in Europe, I am forced to use it. WhatsApp use is pervasive in Europe.
Trying to replicate what prologic did:
- This is the first bulleted line.
- This is the second bulleted line.
- This is the third.
Done.
Using - instead now, to see:
- This is the first bulleted line.
- This is the second bulleted line.
- This is the third.
Done.
Yes, you did something quite weird with yours.
Let me see how mine come out:
* This is the first bulleted line.
* This is the second bulleted line.
* This is the third.
This concludes my test.*
@twtxt.net unrelated, there are problems with <li> here. There shouldn't be <p> within them, I think. I might be wrong.
@twtxt.net just being real. I will do it because I feel it's my duty. As Anthony said on his letter, it isn't about a silly name, but blindy abiding.
@a.9srv.net I don't think it will have any impact, but it is the very least we (investors, and/or customers) can do. I will do the same.
@andros it seems your GtS has issues:
> Warning! It looks like trusted-proxies is not set correctly in this instance's configuration. This may cause rate-limiting issues and, by extension, federation issues.
>
> If you are the instance admin, you should fix this by adding 10.66.66.1/32 to your trusted-proxies.
@twtxt.andros.dev it might be fine, but not here. It just causes more issues than fixes.
@lyse not quite. Yes, the feeds on Yarn have episodic messes. But look at mine, and compare it to McKinley’s. It is night and day.
@lyse that feed looks all messed up, in a big glob.
@twtxt.net seems like you showed interest on some Snake Oil kumbayah. LOL.
@falsifian deal, I will stop writing twtxts for the next 96 hours (giving you some extra buffer there)!
@twtxt.net pretty cool, thanks! (this is also a test; I used to follow you, I unfollowed to see how my reply mention shows).
@twtxt.net right. I don't follow you. I will restart following you once Yarn has fixed this problem. :-P
@ when is the christening? Let me know, and I will plan a trip to down under. ☺️
@movq I extensively use Cloud tabs under macOS/iOS, and history across both OSs as well. I am finding the it has limited my needing to use search engines greatly.
Granted, I usually keep between 50-60 open tabs, and Safari (both mobile and desktop) does a great job with them (power wise). Now, 500! Ooof! 😅
@ my back hurts just from reading you put together a shelf last night! :-D
@lyse you just reminded me I need to schedule a visit to the Tooth Fairy. 😅
About the weather, ugh! Crazy the world we live in. Our west coast is engulfed on fires, and the other side of the world is pretty much freezing. You can't make this up!
@ hehehe, it is not streamlined as you want it. Feedly and an amalgam of news sites, prioritising BBC, NPR, and The Guardian.
Tech news on Hacker News, some subs on Reddit, etc.
@ I get an email each day with headlines, but it is not my only source of news.
This is me test[ing] this to see if I am manag[ing] to break it once more.
This is me test\n this to see if I am manag\n to break it once more.
@ no. It is jest. Just like The Onion, but exclusively for a fictitious company. 😂
@doesnm the logic that keeps on growing! :-D
I mean, since most feeds are named twtxt.txt, following your recommendation, there could be many "twtxt" nicks. 😀
@doesnm so, example.com/x/pineapples/yo.txt nick is also yo?
@doesnm I see problems with that, that do not exist on my approach. You could see, example.com/x/bananas/yo.txt, and the feed has no nick. What is the nick?
Or using the same twt hash method, but only for the URL, to generate the nick, if it doesn't exist, like so, @5vxo4ia
@eapl.me yeah, it is a typo, meant to be proposal. OP is the "Lord of the Typos". :-P
@probiotic I see nicks as a label, but otherwise superfluous. I can give whatever nick I want to anyone, as long as the feed exists (at least on Yarn).
So, if nick exist on feed, great, use it! if it doesn't, assign a random hash derived from whole URL as nick. Done. :-D
@ where do I buy that lifetime ticket? Temme, I am ready!
What kind of magic is this? Hahahaha!
(yes, I meant like that) but it didn't work for me... OT, what are you doing awake?! Don't make me message your wife, and tell on you! :-D
@movq on Yarn, if you start a twtxt with (something), for example, it gets stripped out. Not sure if that's what OP referred about.
(something) Test for doesnm.
@head_honcho_supremus sounds good but, when using Yarn---at least---users shouldn't need to worry about this minutiae. They simply hit "Reply", or "Fork".
Note, I manually added a nick to this reply.
@ Uuuuf! making sure my previous reply's mangled mention wasn't a fluke...
Ha! This one renders different than when replying to someone on a different pod. The plot thickens!
@ I unfollowed you, to prove this is broken. Enjoy your free tier! :-)
@lyse I now have the vivid image of children trying to beat you, or parading you around town demanding justice. 😅😂 The helmet is quite good, and having to open the visor to talk is a riot! LOL.
@lyse I got a bit over 1,000, which isn't bad at all. During Thanksgiving holidays I got over 2,000.
I am at inbox zero now, but not telling my boss. This week I feel like I need it slow, to recover from the vacation. LOL.
@lyse that's one of the first things I do on macOS; disable all the animations and delays. :-)
@prologic I am using it to access ollama running on the Mini without having to expose my public IP. ☺️
@prologic it allows me to access the peers on the network by their hostname, i.e. luddite.lo.op is my phone. Since MagicDNS takes precedence, I can simply do ping luddite and pings me phone.
Headscale MagicDNS (mimicking Tailscale's) is awesome.
@prologic yes, Chrome, under Linux, was a no go.
Was able to upload and update using Safari under macOS. Latest Chrome under Linux didn't let me. 🤷🏼♂️
@prologic :-( I know the feeling. It sucks. Plenty of fluids and rest. There is no much else you can do. Of course, a Theraflu, or similar over the counter will make you feel better, but they will also make you groggy and sleepy.
