@birb Indeed 😁 Well see in the @stats Twt today in a few hours 😎
@markwylde @deebs Actually there is a thing we can stand up and use for on-call scheduling and a lot notifications! I had just forgotten about it 😳 GoAlert.me I might try this with my home infra first 😎
@birb Wait Tumbler is still a thing?! 😳
@birb Not sure maybe 2?! 🀣
@vain So it all works now? What’s it like?
@dooven I think I recall this book Practical Cryptography for Developers recommended in the past.
@xandkar @twtxt Thanks for following me 😁
@loupbrun Seems like a good use case to me! Let me know if you need any. help! Our fully managed hosting service over at Twt.social might be of benefit to you πŸ‘Œ
@loupbrun Yes we can 😁
@loupbrun Hello! πŸ‘‹ Welcome to Twtxt! πŸ€—
@felixp7 Yeah Go is pretty awesome really
Hey @xandkar Saw your Twitter tweet about your plans to experiment with Twtxt on some Twitter UI thingy? Tell me more! (_not that I use Twitterβ„’ πŸ˜›_)_
πŸŽ– Wanna earn yourself a cool $350-750 USD this weekend? Go check out the immudb's coding Challenge. You need to build a "Document oriented database model" atop their immudb key/value store. Seems fairly reasonable to do. Twtxt's own backend uses Bitcask and effectively also uses a document model to store user accounts, feeds and tokens and just serializes structs as JSON into key/value pairs. Good luck! Post here if you participate and your results! πŸš€
@chelseyc90 πŸ‘Œ
@birb if all currently active users on this pod each invites and encourage one person they know to join we would easily have doubled our active use count from some dozen to some two dozen 😁
And finally home! πŸ•‘
Speaking of public transport and busses... Today I left the office just after 1700, caught the train to Indooripilly for a connecting bus home. For whatever reason I either missed the previous bus or it was cancelled! 😳 So it’s 1800 now and just pulled out of Imdro. Still 1/2hr to home 🀬
@toxophilite Welcome! πŸ€— Hope you like what we’ve built so far! 😎
@birb Soinds good to me! 🀣
@markwylde Yeah I wonder if I should send Queensland transport an email linking this conv πŸ€”
@birb-friend Fair enough 😎
Hey @chelseyc90 ! πŸ‘‹ Welcome to Twtxt / Twt.social and my pod πŸ€— Thanks for landing me the DevOps team lead role with AUCloud πŸ™‡β€β™‚οΈ
This fire alarm has been going off for the past three days at the train station I get off to go to work! 😳 so far no oneβ€˜s done anything about it 😳 πŸŽ₯
Soo @birb what do I have to do if I’m to be your technical advisor ? πŸ˜‚
@dooven Just this month while I’m ramping up.
@off_grid_living Hit the Conversation button πŸ˜‚
@off_grid_living Not around here hmmm πŸ€”
@xandkar You should check out what we did over at twtxt.net and follow suit 😁 We use hashes to group Twts into Concersations (cc @cain because you seem to follow him but not me yet πŸ€—)
@xandkar Very nice! A Twtxt client in Racket 😁
@ionores Yeah doesn’t commenting suck πŸ˜‚
@deebs This is the Dilbert clip I was talking about regarding β€œTyping Indicators” β€” Soo funny ! πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜‚
@birb @birb-friend speaking of which did you manage to update and re-upload your own avatar since the new improvements?
@dooven Yeah it kind of is! Normally I don’t really like this wall-based graffiti but this actually looks good! πŸ‘Œ
@birb What a fantastic idea! Why don’t you do that in your local area? πŸ˜‚
@mrh Hello! πŸ‘‹ Welcome to Twtxt! πŸ€—
A Muriel on the ground floor of my of office building 🏞 πŸ“·
So I have to get up at 0630 at a bare minimum to catch a 0732 bus followed by an 0807 train assuming everything runs on time! This just to get in to the office before 0900 😳 I barely have enough time to throw down two coffees, take a πŸ’© and quick 🚿 My gawd! 😴
@off_grid_living technically yes you can however there’s not such a big market for selling data that you crawled as there isn’t enough context. Since there’s no user profiling and no way to target users or groups of users, that data isn’t as valuable to sell to advertisers, it’s only real use is in a search database like Google
@off_grid_living That’s stil too slow! I think you’re right limited on your plan if you can’t upload at megabits there’s something really wrong 😳
@off_grid_living so if yourself the thousand bucks 😁
@hecanjog please directly integrate! Also place a nice profile pic or avatar of yourself at the root of your blog website and Collett Avatar.PNG 😁
@polalis Glad you like it! 😁
@dooven Car getting pulled up out by snowmobiles? 😳
@off_grid_living Something is wrong I’d you can’t even upload at 2kB/s
@off_grid_living Or do you mean an individual Twt? https://twtxt.net/twt/5kidokq
@off_grid_living Oh I think you mean this? https://twtxt.net/user/off_grid_living
@off_grid_living very nice set up! I’m glad you did all the research and I hope it all works out nicely for you 😁
@off_grid_living What do you mean?
@dooven Yup!
@birb are use it primarily as a container distribution for running production workloads
@markwylde @felixp7 Thanks 😁
Just published a new version of uLinux v1.3.3 ! πŸŽ‰ Thanks for your help @markwylde πŸ™‡β€β™‚οΈ -- Let me know if anyone discovers any bugs or problems! Next weekend I'll get ulinux.org back up and running on its own VM dogfooding Β΅Linux itself 🀞 (_for now back to Github static pages of the README.md_)
And we're back and building with successful er2e test VM(s) πŸŽ‰
@ionores The right time being when? πŸ€”
The most interesting thing about the shot is that it was taken in almost complete darkness 😎
@markwylde For some reason I forgot to attach the screenshot 😳
Pretty flowers πŸŒΈπŸ“·
@markwylde So far so good.... 🀞 πŸ“·
Hah! Goes to show you what your brain gets used to! πŸ˜›
My pathetic attempt at a perfect mirror! πŸ€£πŸžπŸ“·
@slashdot 42% of Amazon reviews might be unreliable. Oh really?! πŸ˜³πŸ˜‚πŸ€£ I wonder why πŸ€”
@dooven Noce! πŸ‘Œ
@agusandriputra @birb Once were happy with our UI/UX layout probably a couple of weeks I’d say
@markwylde And? any Noticeable improvement?
Hey @dooven πŸ‘‹
Hey @markwylde wanna try out the improved avatar and media quality on the backend and re-upload your avatar? 🀞
@birb Yes @agusandriputra and I are working on a PoC (_Proof of Concept_) form of "Direct Messaging" over Twtxt. We will _probably_ just called it "Messages" though. The way it'll work is you can message other users on a pod or cross-pods and your "messages" are a _special_ Twtxt feed itself only accessible to the two parties. We will also _very likely_ build out e2e public key crypto where each messages is signed and encrypted and some form of "key exchange" between users (_client side_) so the backend server never knows or can see the content of "private messages"
@markwylde I don’t really like relying on anyone else’s cloud services! πŸ˜‚
@markwylde Yeah apparently the build system is broken so I’m trying to fix that this weekend
@birb I think I prefer to be your technical advisor 😁
@birb Not much just improving avatar and image quality
I think I need to use a different Image processing library πŸ€” One that supports ResizeToFit perhaps?
@lucidiot cc @arnauld
@vain wow I’m surprise the floppy disk at least still works after 23 years! 🀣
@vain Oh my! How old were those floppy disks?
@vain WOW! 😲 Very nice! πŸ‘Œ Quite nostalgic there eh? 😎
@dooven Damn man that’s gorgeous! πŸ‘ŒπŸž
@markwylde I might do a bit of work on uLinux this weekend 😁 Ahat about you?
@lukem G’night 😴 Good to finally start play β€˜n πŸ‘Œ I play a lot of 2+1 and 5+3 real-time games myself frequently. cya tomorrow! πŸ‘‹
@birb Whoops that was a typo! πŸ˜‚
@lukem Cool 😏
@birb where have you been? We’ve missed you the past week 😁 all hail king Borb πŸ™‡β€β™‚οΈ
@lukem did you except? Is the game started? I’m just outside at the moment on my phone but I’ll go and grab my new iPad Air and we can start playing shortly 😁
@kt84 Nice work! πŸ‘Œ
@lukem I sent you a lichess challenge finally, should be waiting for you when you signin next 🀞
Morning Twtizens! ✌️ What a glorious weekend πŸ˜ƒ
@lucidiot Why delete something just because it's not very well maintained?
@polalis \n\n> Can it be used in China\n\nI don't know! You tell me? 🀣
@polalis Hello! πŸ˜€ Welcome! Sorry I don't speak/write Chinese (_I have to use a translator!_)
@polalis Hello! πŸ‘‹ Welcome to Twtxt! πŸ€— Where are you from?
Most of the time I'm _really_ not that picky to be honest. But I _think_ I know what you mean... git rebase -i HEAD~3, restack some commits, reword, etc, etc right? I mean look some folks you work with get rather picky about keeping commits clean, squashing, etc. But at the end of the day ya know what matters? The damn binary πŸ˜€ (_or resulting script if you're using an interpreter language_).
Oh boi! 😳 That was some awesome games of table-tennis tonight! πŸ“ I didn't win, but I had a few 3-game matches πŸ˜‚
@felixp7 How so?
@dooven I was thinking of jamming its radio signals 😏
@dooven haha sounds good! πŸ˜‚
@markwylde Why decentralized? πŸ€”
@kt84 @ionores Well it’s illegal for sure πŸ˜€ the pilot was in violating of at least 3 rules!
@dilbert This is me every morning!
@dilbert this is me every single morning! β˜ΊοΈπŸ˜πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜€πŸ˜πŸ˜Š
@markwylde have you tried this? do you want to collaborate on something similar that we build together?
