Replacement wifi adapter for my main laptop arrived today...5 days early!
Also, did you intended for the page title to be simply "home"?
@thecanine looks good! Was the use of asterisks instead of <li> a concerted choice (it doesn't look intended, but I might be wrong)? With CSS you can replace bullets on lists with whatever you want.
@prologic He'll be probably back in a few days or weeks I reckon. It's not the first time that his raspi (or what hardware does he use again?) is down. :-)

@movq my apologies if I crossed some lines, I only meant it as a friendly engagement (which, all aside, was achieved!). Thank you for sharing your thoughts; please know that I appreciate them.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I'm going to bed, but I'll have a closer read/think tomorrow 🤞
@movq It's formatted just fine 🤟
I can't disable a bloody loud beep from my Lenovo laptop "keyboard panic, you can't type right now". Online docs mention a UEFI setting that is just not there.This 💩 makes me so angry.
@bender We _could_ -- It's just never became "strong enough"™ of a demand that I ever extended the possibility of supporting other mime types.
This brings a thought I had for a long time, why can't we upload arbitrary files to a twtxt? If not an image, make it simply a link. I could have used such feature to upload the text.
@prologic when I first "fed" the text to Gemini, I asked for a three paragraphs summary. It provided it. Then I asked to "elaborate on three areas: user experience, moral/political impact, and technical/legal concerns". The reply to that is too long for a twtxt.
I then asked to counter the OP opinions---as in "how would you counter the author's opinion?". The reply was very long, but started like this:
> "That's an excellent question, as the post lays out some very strong, well-reasoned criticisms. Countering these points requires acknowledging the valid concerns while presenting a perspective focused on mitigation, responsible integration, and the unique benefits of AI."
What followed was extensive, so I asked for a summary, which didn't do justice to the wall of text that preceded it.
@bender Same I only have one registrar too (OnlyDomains).
@prologic hehehe, yeah, it isn't mine neither. Most obscure TLDs are in small registrars. I like to stick to one register (even though when Google Domains ceased to exist I was forced to have two, as Cloudflare doesn't support the .ONE TLD).
@bender It's not even available on my registrar anyway 🤣
Heh @ a3f9c no suprise there.As it's pretty new XD
@bender Makes me wonder whether _somethingarather_.zip is a good primary domain for the service I'm building? 🤔
@prologic it looks made with good taste, which I appreciate. Developer's site address is cool, https://tiago.zip. I didn't know one could rent a ZIP TLD.
@bender I _think_ that's where it sends the capture verification requests. It's based on PoW, so it has to perform validation somehow. It actually looks pretty decent as far as a way to prevent spam/abuse of forms on the open web (e.g: Waitlist on SnipMail).
@prologic never heard of it before. I wouldn't call lightweight to anything that needs Docker to run, though. 😅

posting from my shitty android. phones suck! gopher forever!
You do raise very good points though, but I don't think any of this is particularly new because there are many other examples of technology and evolution of change over time where people have forgotten certain skills like for example, changing a car tyre
@movq I am genuinely curious as to why you think Geminis summarization and the categorization of your gopher post was and is as you say misunderstood?
I asked this very genuinely because before reading @bender's comments and Gemini summarization I actually went and unplugged your post into flood gaps go for proxy, and then listen to the text intently with my own human ears 👂

[47°09′42″S, 126°43′19″W] Bad satellite signal -- switching to analog communication
I have recently been made painfully aware of how small is the lifespan of an #USB #stick. Have been thinking about it since (and, in particular, how bad an investment is a big-storage thumb drive, taking that into account)... and also about how much worse does this make me feel about the new tendency of having movies and music being sold in USB sticks instead of the 'old physical formats' (yes DVDs and CDs don't have a great lifespan either, but in comparison...)

Props to him on nailing messaging tho. Essential activist skill, and he's crushing it
ENSHITTIFICATION the book I guess lays out a framework, but the references are all his own covered territory
Kinda hit a wall w/ messaging tho. In the last few months I read INTERNET CON and CHOKEPOINT CAPITALISM, and listened to the CBC podcast
OK, glad I made the drive. Seeing Doctorow speak with the same speed + enthusiasm you hear on his audiobooks + interviews is pretty cool
Among many tweaks, and some polishing of the web interface, Mastodon 4.5 also now supports the use of native emoji 🎁
Server owners can do more to manage and showcase their community. Mastodon 4.5 has settings to define the visibility of different feeds (timelines), and also the ability to set the default landing page to the local feed. There are also new tools for restricting problematic usernames, and improvements in the moderation interface.
The Fediverse feels more vibrant when conversations are buzzing! Mastodon 4.5 fetches replies from other servers to show you more complete conversation threads - another much-anticipated feature.
Mastodon 4.5 brings Quote Post authoring features to everyone. Note that you can manage whether or how your posts are quoted by others, both globally on the new Posting Defaults page, and individually on specific posts. You can also revoke the use of a post. We wrote about this in more detail a few weeks ago: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/09/introducing-quote-posts/
We’re excited to release Mastodon 4.5 into the world! Arriving just a few months after the last release, this version brings the long-awaited Quote Posts feature, along with many other goodies. Here’s a quick look (you should read our blog post for more!) https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/11/mastodon-4.5
#musiquinta "Música feita por pessoas negras", e primeiro pcorrem-me umas quantas opções de Jazz, e lego a seguir noto que são raros os músicos negros que tenho na minha coleção se não contar com Jazz ou Blues (que não é, de todo, o tipo de música que mais ouço). Então é bem propositado decidir destacar essas "excepções" (e se calhar inspirar-me na hashtag para alargar os meus horizontes...)
Então quem vos trago aqui hoje é o Maxim dos The Prodigy, que não só tem dado voz como escreveu várias das músicas... incluindo a que escolho hoje: Poison.

@movq this I find more worrisome, and saw no mention of it on your text: Right-Wing Chatbots Turbocharge America’s Political and Cultural Wars (gift article).
> Enoch, one of the newer chatbots powered by artificial intelligence, promises “to ‘mind wipe’ the pro-pharma bias” from its answers. Another, Arya, produces content based on instructions that tell it to be an “unapologetic right-wing nationalist Christian A.I. model.”
@threatcat that seems like a cool reason to drive though. Sounds fun!

@movq using gopher also limits tenth fold the amount of bystanders you will get. I think a *finger* .plan would probably have a bigger audience. :-D :-P
