@prologic \nKind of a pickle. I would say, if the user isn't following the feed, then @something and @something@example.com doesn't get linked.

>We should be able to remove those subject hashtags, they’re just noise.
Yes! I would say they are not even needed on the web UI. You click conversations, and that's done by Yarn. No need for humans to see it.

@movq \nAha! Cool! Not just deleting, but proceeding as if the twt is going to be send. If I :q! on vi it will add an empty line. If, instead, I go :x like I normally do, it works as you said---and as I wanted it. Thanks!

@movq OK, I am on request/question asking mode today. 😋 How do you cancel a twt, or a reply to a twt? Say I hit my reply, and then I change my mind? Right now, even exiting vi is creating an empty line on my twtxt.txt. Is there an obvious way to cancel a twt, reply, or fork that I am missing?

>If Subject contains the full twt, then you can skim over conversations just by reading those lines in mutt’s index pager
Yes, I do the same, true.
>So I decided: Okay, let’s have mutt do it.
And Mutt does it well. I agree it was/is a good idea.
>The subject lines are already “compressed”
I noticed, yes.
I am not sure why I asked to begin with; in retrospect, in was a silly request. Perhaps the OCD in me got triggered while viewing rich headers, on a specific twt, when I saw the huge subject line that is, otherwise, always hidden.
Anyway, don't mind me, move along. 😂

Jenny populates Mutt's subject with the entire twt. That makes for very, very long subject lines.

@movq \nI still worry, perhaps a little less. But I still take precautions. For me, and for others. I mean, you might have a bullet proof vest, but even so, would you actively seek to get shot?

Is it me, or Gmail's web interface is going down the drain? Using Safari---my default browser---often takes two, or three clicks to open an email. If it weren't because its search is amazing, I would never visit its web interface.

@stigatle \nA twtxt client would be nice! Or a very simple cgi script to print twts to web nicely---not a second Yarn, just something to show twts in a pretty form on the web.

Just like your highschool girlfriend in Afghanistan "doesn't need saving", right? I think it is a language issue you are having, as English isn't your mother tongue.
QAnon followers are cultist nuts. Some of them wanting out are finding that it is a hard thing to do (did you read the article?). Saying that "they don't need to escape" is a silly thing to say, at the very least. To me, it just doesn't make sense.

Fair enough, I will modify my cron job to match. When I come across edited twts, I just delete both knowing jenny will fetch the right one next iteration. I like keeping things tidy. 😊

📖 "When no appropriate rule applies, make one up." Good morning! Lovely morning in Ferenginar today.
@movq what is your cron job repeat time for jenny? Currently I have mine to every minute, and while it allows me to participate fairly quick on conversations it has some drawbacks: it captures every single edited twt, so I end up with seemingly the same twt, but not quite---as it has minor edits, etc. So, "repeats". Perhaps setting cron to check every 5 minutes or so is best?

Entering a plain URL on feeds.twtxt.net renders a 500. Like entering ckunte.net gets 500, but http://ckunte.net doesn't. 🤌🏻

They are new MBPs, with two screen sizes, not new screen sizes 😊. 14" and 16". Both can be configured with the M1MAX, but having that SoC automatically bumps the RAM to 32GB, making them somewhat pricey.

It is a lovely view! That's home office, or work office? I am hoping the second, though I do not know Norway's days and nights well. I know that Sweden can get pretty dark, or pretty light, for long periods of time.

@lyse \nNot anymore 😭. I still have a self-propelled one, and electric, which is very nice. But when you live under an almost constant 32-35℃, with super high humidity, you cease liking working outside pretty quick.

You can get an Air for $1,000 (or $1,200 with 16GB). I have used it (with 8GB), and that machine flies. I can't imagine how fast one with an M1MAX will feel.
