@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz this is from the video for her song “oops!” – check it out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOV1vApNIuk
and when suzuki airi world domination comes, you can consider yourselves ready because i showed you this video ;)
@bender@twtxt.net Cool, the PDF doesn’t have the navigation links between each section, that’s indeed a tad nicer. Thanks!
@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh dear, nobody needs bot attacks. :-( Luckily, the web server responding a hell lot quicker today than the last two days.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org hihi ^^ i did that at first, but i personally i don’t like it when websites don’t let me change my password when i am already authenticated — fwiw you can view and log out other sessions, if that diminishes this attack vector at all
@eric@itsericwoodward.com Hmm, the images are all 404ing. Also, I reckon that lots of code blocks are broken, too.
@bender@twtxt.net thank youuuu bender i missed your fun posts!!!! yeah i have been INSANELY BUSY with fujocoded work (see those newsletter posts!) it’s been tough but i’ve been making my way through it 🫡🫡🫡
@dce@hashnix.club You should try los86! 8-)
Well, what are you trying to do on this ThinkPad? That might affect the OS choices.
I really had to laugh when I read your initial comparison. I love it! :-D
Listen missy, don’t you disappear on us like that again, do you hear me?! 😂 Welcome back, kat! I was wondering where you were, but figured something more interesting was keeping you busy. 🙈
i’ve been sooo obsessed with the second a-side from my favorite idol group’s latest single. it’s a super fun and energetic latin pop track — i highly recommend giving it a listen, it’s really catchy!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RtbnP1onaM
@zvava@twtxt.net omg this is so cool!!!
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org IIRC they’re getting attacked by bots on a huge level
also this is a really useful page!
HI GUYS IT HAS BEEN SO LONG I’VE MISSED YALL BUT I’VE BEEN SO FUCKING BUSY 😭😭😭😭😭 HOW’S EVERYONE DOING
I have a late-2010s ThinkPad running OpenBSD, but it’s about as fast as a snail carrying heavy shopping through molasses. I’d like to run something other than Linux, for variety, but the other members of the BSD family failed for various reasons. What OS do you guys think I should try?
👓 “How to Make an Apostrophe in HTML: The Complete 2500 Word Guide” https://thelinuxcode.com/how-can-i-make-an-apostrophe-in-html/
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org wouldn’t the PDF version be better? https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/gawk.pdf
Hmm, gnu.org is slow as heck. Shorter HTML pages load in about ten seconds. This complete AWK manual all in one large HTML page took a full minute: https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/gawk.html Is there maybe some anti AI shenanigans going on?
In any case, I find the user guide super interesting. My AWK skills are basically non-existent, so I finally decided to change that. This document is incredibly well written and makes it really fun to keep reading and learning. I’m very impressed. So far, I made it to section 1.6, happy to continue.
It was raining cats and dogs for a few minutes, I almost couldn’t see the houses down in the valley anymore. Pretty sick. :-)
@bender@twtxt.net Haha, yeah, we’re also better off rolling dice sometimes. I usually don’t mind liquid sunshine either. But I have to be prepared for it. As a matter of prudence, I brought my rain jacket along. In the end, I was wet from the inside as well, though. The breathability of this plastic bag isn’t as good as they always claim it to be. Especially in summer.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I couldn’t agree more! :-)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Weather’s great at the moment, isn’t it? I like it when it’s cloudy, dark, chilly. 😊
Ariadne explains some of the reasons behind this “Wayback” thingy (rootful X11 on Wayland):
They should put this in a FAQ on their website or something. The whole endeavor makes more sense when you look at it like this.
@zvava@twtxt.net oh duh! Sorry, I promised I read, my brain just didn’t process it right. I shall follow your progress, and offer bits and pieces of unrequested trivialities. :-)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oi, at least you still have weather services. We are soon to find ourselves looking at birds, ants, etc., to get a grasp. 😅
On a weather related topic, we get rains almost each day, mid-afternoon/late-afternoon. That’s great, because I love rain, but I also need to mow the wilderness in the back of the house, and the front lawn. So, yeah, kind of a conundrum.
@bender@twtxt.net ..if you read the post you would see those are the next planned steps, yes
Three weather services with three different forecasts. We got a little bit rained on, so at least some of them were not completely wrong. The timing was off by an hour, though. And nobody expected the Spanish inqui^W^Wthunder either. It was a nice walk.
Oh cool, as I type this, lighning and thunder very close by now. At most a kilometer away. Glad I’m home and not in the woods anymore. And heavy rain kicks in, too.
@zvava@twtxt.net may I recommend to change the mention format upon hitting reply to something similar to what it’s used in Yarn, and perhaps hiding the hash on the post too? Looking good!
@zvava@twtxt.net Uuhh, that’s nice! And welcome to the twtxt world.
The password change might query the current password as well in order to make it difficult for attackers to change account passwords.
replies and following implemented! next step is further parsing of post contents, rendering threads, and then maybe i can finally start adding remote feeds…! though i kinda wanna redo the whole ui ^^’
@bender@twtxt.net I switched back to groff a few weeks ago. 🤪
Hmm: gopher://uninformativ.de/0/phlog/2025/2025-08/2025-08-18--permacomputing.txt
That’s fairly recent, but fully justified. I give up! :-D
@zvava@twtxt.net Yes congrats and well done! Keep going! 🥳
@zvava@twtxt.net Hooray for more twtxt clients 🥳
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org (Haha, every time I read the word “Gophers”, I have to stop and remind myself that this is about Golang. 🤪)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I usually only have my GPS tracker with me. That trip yesterday was probably a one-time thing. 😅 It was fun, but I’d rather not carry so much stuff around. 🥴
@dce@hashnix.club Glad you liked it. 😅
@bender@twtxt.net Right. 😂 groff, Markdown, groff. Justified, unjustified, justified.
I should have checked the CHANGELOG first. LOL.
I had some trouble with my nginx reverse proxy, but after much tweaking and fiddling, I now have the prototype version of my node-based twtxt editor up and running on my site! 😎 #twtgoals
Fellow Gophers might find this interesting, too: https://flak.tedunangst.com/post/what-the-go-proxy-has-been-doing

I finally have my new (top-secret) twtxt client in a working state. Next comes the deployment, which I hope to finish tonight. Release date: TBD. Stay tuned!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Or, the time of year when birds take to the skies in stunning flocks.🦆🦢
Welp, my rent’s gone out and my student loan won’t be in for another week, so I’m not spending anything for a while. How’s everyone else’s September going?
Howdy @prologic@twtxt.net !! I missed hanging out the Cool Kids* 🤣 I hope everyone has had a good summer and doing well 🫡

We use all the Microsoft programs at work - Teams and Outlook especially.
After all kinds of technical problems with Teams, that sometimes go unresolved for over a year, Microsoft shifted their priorities away from fixing things and towards adding an annoying AI Copilot button, that just takes up space and all it does, is loads the website in Teams, so I disabled it. Soon they just add it back, but in a different row of icons, therefore it’s now a different button, you have to disable (I think they added yet another one, to the Teams, on my work phone and I had to disabled that too). Not too long after, the desktop one just enabled itself, because of “an error” and I can disable it, but doing so activates a popup, that begs you to turn it back on, every once in a while. You can’t disable the popup and can only click “Yes” or “Not now” on it. I still keep it disabled, out of principle, but yesterday I noticed yet another Copilot button, this time in the top right corner of my Outlook and this one cannot be disabled, on the business version of Outlook and even on the personal one, it’s only possible to do it through hidden privacy settings, by prohibiting the program from connecting to Microsoft servers, for extra “features”.
There’s people complaining about it online, so it’s clear nobody really wants it, but at this point Microsofts position is that you will have at least one useless AI button on your screen, at any given time, and you will be happy. And yes, their AI sucks and if I absolutely have to use AI for something, there’s already 2 better options, we have access to, at work.

# url = field in your feed. I'm not sure if you had already, but the first url field is kind of important in your feed as it is used as the "Hashing URI" for threading.
@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de My metadata only has my HTTPS URL. I didn’t consider having multiple. I was talking about my config.yaml. Jenny sounds like a good client, so I might give that a try.
this is the 3rd sd card that dies on my pi-hole raspberry pi, i have no other choice but to try pi with nvme
It might just be my client, but it seems that I cannot track multiple URLs at once. As such, all three of my twtxt URLs will work for following, but mentions will only reach me at my HTTPS URL (https://hashnix.club/~dce/twtxt.txt). If there is a client that can cope with twtxt mirrors, I would love to know about it.
So, in addition to HTTPS and Gemini, my twtxt should now also be available over Gopher (gopher://hashnix.club:70/0/~dce/twtxt.txt). Not sure who, if anyone, would need this; but since my tilde provides Gopher hosting, I’d may as well mirror my twtxt there as well.
