@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh yeah, few people are as persistent as her. That said, it’s really easy to give up. This shit is overwhelming.
@david@daiwei.me as you alter ego, I seriously recommend you stop creating feeds left and right. But whom am I kidding, right?! 😅
I wonder how long will it take to show a follower on twtd. It only shows the feed’s owner, so far.
@citizenalex@citizenalex.envs.net Correct.
@arne@uplegger.eu Whoah! „Schaffung eines Aufenthaltsraumes für Nichtraucher!“ Irre, dass es einen solchen vor dem 1. Mai 1975 nicht gab. Kann man sich heute überhaupt nicht vorstellen.
Cool, schönes Heftchen hast Du da gesetzt. :-) Die Lochkartenanzahlen sind auch der absolute Wahnsinn.
I know what’s happening. Will come back later to explain (for @prologic@twtxt.net).
@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com @bender@twtxt.net Oh, I missed that. Whoopsy daisy!
@kiwu@twtxt.net Hanging on by a thread is plenty good enough for many spiders, so it should be sufficient for you, too!!1!
Tell us more… 🍿🥤🤭
And I bet your internets are going off soon. Post interesting, exotic pics!
@prologic@twtxt.net Why, thank you. We’re quite pleased with him as well. 😊
Nice cat 😅
On the road 😅
What’s the bug?
For today’s (belated) #caturday, here’s a recent pic of our chunky-buddy Bowie in his house at the bottom of the cat tree in the kitchen.
Enjoy!
For game 2, everyone else brought out bigger guns - tribal dragons, tribal giants, tribal spiders (led by the completely broken Cosmic Spider-Man), and Atraxa (equipped with Captain America’s shield, no less), while I ran my new (also unlisted) 5-color tribal Super Villains deck (fronted by the Super Skrull). Although I got off to a slow start, it kept me mostly under the radar, allowing me to ultimately win with the Villains by goading everyone else’s creatures into attacking each other on one turn (via Maximum Carnage), and then killing off the remaining players over 3 combat phases on the follow-up turn (Full Throttle).
Boo-yah!
Perhaps unsurprisingly, last night’s Magic games were dominated by the new Marvel set.
In game 1, I was running my new (unlisted) 5-color tribal Super Heroes deck (led by Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD) against a lightly-modified Avengers Assemble deck, a tribal Super Villains deck (fronted by Thanos, the Mad Titan), and 2 “classic” magic decks (Fractals and Artifacts). The heroes held their own quite well, but that game went way too long (thanks to Thanos snapping away half the board every other turn). It finally ended when everyone quit after yet another board wipe (giving the wiper her first win).
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I can’t take credit for that word, that was a @bender@twtxt.net original. However, I did hashtag it on Masto in hopes of possibly inspiring someone to learn about what truly decentralized social media looks like (and maybe even come join us). 😊
I am watching Zatoichi the blind swordsman today. I also have a mountain of clothes to fold. Then work comes tomorrow. 😅
@movq@www.uninformativ.de we found a bug. @prologic@twtxt.net loves it!
@bender@twtxt.net “Twt could not be found” 😢
What in the forkity fork is going on here! 😂
@bender@twtxt.net I, too, should take a nap now.
@bender@twtxt.net For fork’s sake!
@david@raw.githubusercontent.com your fork worked, and this is a fork, of your fork. Let’s fork’em!
So interesting. So, a company tribute to some of their employees. Very touching!
Congratulations! I am using twtxt.app, and it rocks!
I slept for over 10 hours last night and today. Finally caught up for the many nights going to bed at 02:00, and waking up at 05:00.
EV Batteries Defy Expectations, Last Hundreds of Thousands of Miles
247,000 miles on an EV battery? So says the owner of a U.K.-based used-car sales company that specializes in Evs, who tells the Wall Street Journal EV batteries keep performing well even after several hundred thousand miles. “They are proving themselves to be exceptionally reliable.”
After five years on the road, the average EV will still b … ⌘ Read more
ReactOS “Open-Source Windows” Project Now Capable Of Running Half-Life 2

Hobbit-like Humans May Have Scavenged Komodo Dragons’ Leftovers to Survive
CNN reports:
Prehistoric human relatives, nicknamed “hobbits” due to their short stature, may have been scavengers, rather than skilled hunters capable of taking down big game or building cooking fires, according to new research. The study adds to growing evidence that Homo floresiensis, which had a brain only slightl … ⌘ Read more
Hmmm the Twtxt App isn’t grouping threads correctly 🧐
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net Indeed! No idea why this isn’t the default in the first place.
@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Twtxthashgeddon, hahahaha, brilliant. :-D
@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Haha! I’m glad you like it! 🤣 I ummed and arrred over the set of publishing backends it should support, and in the end decided to support Yarn, Github/Gitea and twtd. I hope that’s enough and flexible enough for most folks 🤞
What a week!
It looks like I mostly missed the #twtxthashgeddon (so happy belated twtxthashgeddon day, to those who celebrate), although I’m glad that twtxt-lib appears to have come through it more-or-less unscathed.
Also, today is (was) July 4th, so happy US Independence Day (to those that celebrate). I didn’t feel much like celebrating, myself, so instead I went and played Magic (results tomorrow).
Finally, today is (now) July 5th, so happy X-Day (to those that celebrate). I can’t help but feel like this would be a great time for the saucers to come…. Just sayin’. 👽
BTW - welcome to twtxt @GabesArcade@gabesarcade.com!
@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Ahh you’re welcome bud! 👌
@prologic@twtxt.net Twtxt App looks great and is dead-simple to use. You’re on fire! 😅
@prologic@twtxt.net Excellent, thank you for this!

I think I fixed this bug!
This Iranian proverb stood out to me today. “My bitter laughter is sadder than my tears.”
Oh if we’re talking about the twtxt.app client, that’s a different story. I still consider that alpha/beta quality. Lemme look into that. It has it’s own cache of course (using IndexDB) and it’s entirely possible some behaviours are still not quite right yet…
Are Wars Blurring Lines Between Corporate and National Security?
Subsea cables. Ukrainian power stations. Russian oil refineries. Even airports, water-desalination plants and Amazon data centers.
They’ve all become targets in wartime, notes the Wall Street Journal, and around the world now arguments “are already brewing between companies and governments over new regulations and potential costs.”
