Upgrading the MacPorts packages on my 2009 Mac Mini via 'port upgrade outdated', mostly to get Python 3 > 3.6 and be able to run the current jrnl program #cli #macos\r
Playing sone Elton John classics from my childhood, Gretatest Hits (1974) was the first rock music vinyl LP that I bought on my own\r
Following with interest the developer activity regarding the twtxt spec at twtxt.net\r
@prologic I am trying to cut costs, so I deleted all my Digital Ocean droplets. For a month I will be using a free s390x VPS, so I needed to adapt some of my Docker images, scripts and configurations for that architecture. Also took another chance with Traefik Proxy, I ditched it long ago for nginx-proxy, but this time I made it work. #h5nn5tq\r
Back to twtxtland after rebuilding my personal server\r
@prologic I agree, should have asked for help. Neither the bridge network nor any other bridge-based custom network allowed the containers to contact external servers, it might have been an iptables issue. #twflvza\r
Something in my main server, running Ubuntu 16.0.4 at Digital Ocean, broke the network for Docker. After a few hours of futzing around, editing configuration files and doing tests, bit the bullet and spun out a fresh Ubuntu-based Docker-ready droplet from the app Marketplace.\r
Enough gophering and twtexting for now, taking a break to enjoy the evening\r
@prologic It did, posting from txtnish, nice to know. #utwnv7q\r
@prologic Testing if this will be added to the thread just adding the hashtag. #utwnv7q\r
@prologic Txtnish adds a 28 character timestamp to the message, so in Bash: tweet=tail -1 the current twtxt.txt file and then pipe echo body=${tweet:28} to twt.\r
Used bash to remove the timestamp of the just -posted tweet to twttxt.txt and passed that to twt to re-post to the configured pod\r
Seems like twtxt-el does not retrieve a timeline. #emacs\r
Testing twtxt-el by posting this status message.\r
Setting up txtnish on the Linux side of one of my computers that runs CloudReady. #twtxt #txtnish #chromeos\r
Registered to https://twtxt.net and managed to post a reply right before some kind of server error, now my account there is broken 😒\r
Well, it was not a proper fix, more like a duck-tape mend, the right thing to do is to add a BSD branch and fix the calls to BSD's awk and fmt so they produce the data in the way the rest of the code expects it. #txtnish #gnu #bsd\r
Fixed txtnish timeline formatting of hashtags on BSD by installing coreutils and replacing fmt with gfmt in the configuration file #twtxt #txtnish #gnu #bsd\r
GitHub's API access still flakey or is it my connection?\r
Just getting back home, my son Alejandro crashed his '91 Mazda Miata, the kid is fine but the car not so much. It was a fun drive.\r
@mdosch My site has not been crawled since 2018, and trying to add the twtxt file manually did not worked, maybe with an HTML rendering and a link. #WaybackMachine\r
Note to self: Keep the twtxt.txt file under version control. \r
Due to the same situation, my original twtxt.txt file was also lost, but since I keep various clients, making a new tweet restored part of it. \r
Lost my recent links collection from links.oevl.info. MAKE FUCKING BACKUPS #ShitHappens \r
What I need is to serve gopher and http behind a proxy and under the same domain, in a way that a unique container serves each protocol \r
Need to fix the infraestructure that lets me serve content via gopher and http. Sometimes https calls go to my gopher server. \r
Hey @mdosch Yes, I do. That's how all royals do this Twtxt thing, I am not the one to be mocked by Harry or Meghan because I have to type while they just yell at the butlers.\r
Not that I am asking any #twtxt developer to give me that, I am just saying that I am going to build those tools that I want\r
I can tweet and twtxt from the command line, now I want a popup text area, a simple local Web interface and an Albert/Alfred action to do it without going to the terminal.\r
Well @freemor they way I am serving my content via http and gopher may need some fixing, thanks for the following #twtxt\r
Shutting down computers and packing my backpack to take the metro and go home\r
Do I need to configure txtnish to output the same date format as twtxt? May need to #RTFM\r
Testing txtnish on my main laptop, neither the original twtxt client nor the js version worked here.\r
Hello there @mdosch thanks for the welcome\r
The mind in itself is a wonderful tool. Dysfunction sets in when you seek your self in it and mistake it for who you are.\r
Thank you @kas, I would like to be added to we_are_twtxt\r
Adjusting the exclude array for the lsyncd configuration.\r
Testing a lsyncd configuration to keep twtxt.txt in sync between the web server and the gopher server.\r
Using lsyncd to sync my twttxt file between my web server and gopher server roots\r
Reactivated my virtual NextStep box running on the Previous emulator, version 1.6, on Windows 10, using SLIRP networking\r
#Ideas RSS to twtxt, Twitter to twtxt, jrnl to twtxt...\r
Added a header to the twtxt file\r
First post to my twtxt feed, hope to keep using it\r
