@zvava@twtxt.net I never used any of the social media platforms, that’s why I’m probably ignorant.

I don’t understand the concept of a retwt. Just quote the (relevant) parts from whereever and comment on that. Or post a link instead of a quote. Sounds simple enough. :-) That’s also has the benefit that it works with every source, no matter what. Since it’s called retwt, I’d imagine this to only work (well) with whatever messages the system itself offers. But I could be wrong. What would be the benefit of having a dedicated message type or structure for “hey, look at that” messages in your opinion?

Hmm, what’s a content warning?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Fun fact, inhabitants of this town are nicknamed „Brandstifter“ (arsonists). In the 19th century, a firebug caused a number of big fires here.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ten stories or more are already very tall in my books. Not sure at which height I would start calling high rise buildings sky scrapers, but Wikipedia suggests around 150 meters, depending on region.

Oh, I just found https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f1/Pier_17_2018-03_jeh.jpg and this really does not look all that high. I thought that this would be at least 50 or 100 meters up. I was completely wrong. :-D

at first i dismissed the idea of likes on twtxt as not sensible…like at all — then i considered they could just be published in a metadata field (though that field could get really unruly after a while)

retwts are plausible, as “RE: https://example.com/twtxt.txt#abcdefg”, the hash could even be the original timestamp from the feed to make it human readable/writable, though im extremely wary of clogging up timelines

i thought quote twts could be done extremely sensibly, by interpreting a mention+hash at the end of the twt differently to when placed at the beginning — but the twt subject extension requires it be at the beginning, so the clean fallback to a normal reply i originally imagined is out of the question — it could still be possible (reusing the retwt format, just like twitter!) but i’m not convinced it’s worth it at that point

is any of this in the spirit of twtxt? no, not in the slightest, lmao

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org hahaha very rarely!!! it wasn’t quite a sky scraper, just a few floors up, but my perspective may be skewed because i’m used to high buildings :P

@movq@www.uninformativ.de you got this!!!!!

Lol, what an ending! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylHq9QUOUW4

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 🔥🔥🔥

The arsonists set fire again! https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2025-09-08/

@zvava@twtxt.net The features are coming together, this is great!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Somebody knew what he was doing, great shots! Also, quite interesting to see the color and brightness change.

I have a feeling that learning to play electric double bass through an amplifier was a big mistake.

At the core, this is an acoustic instrument. If you play it through an amp, you will instinctively only do the bare minimum to get some sound going, because the amp does the heavy lifting. But it’s just not right.

This is a very physical instrument. It needs a lot of force and strength – in comparison, an electric bass guitar is almost flimsy and delicate. I need to “feel” what’s going on and that’s just not the case when using headphones.

I feel like I wasted ~3 years. 🫤 But maybe it’ll get better from now on …

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz How often have you been up top a sky scraper roof so far?

Made this a few weeks ago, just listened to it again and I quite like it:

https://www.uninformativ.de/music/2025-1-ebow/Fog.ogg

This is just one instrument: Electric bass guitar + EBow. And echo/delay on top. But it’s a single track, single take. It amazes me quite a bit how much you can do with that little thing. 🤯

@dce@hashnix.club I’ve never heard of weirdcore before, but it’s kind of intriguing. 😃

@dce@hashnix.club The difference in brightness is pretty big. When the Moon is completely inside of the Earth’s shadow, you can see the red tint:

https://movq.de/v/7b4c323c0c/

As soon as direct sunlight returns, even just a little bit, the Moon looks mostly normal again.

Yeah, it’s probably overkill. 🙈

Oops, maybe I should have posted a reminder. 🥴

@dce@hashnix.club By the time you posted your twt, the red phase was already over. 🙈 Stellarium has a pretty good simulation of the whole thing.

@zvava@twtxt.net wow, this is a full change, and looking very, very, very good! I am ready to test it. 🙈

search page, bookmarks page, improved thread view (that i will probably improve further), as well as a logo and a whole ui redesign. it is truly all coming together…were i to mark any items off the roadmap :p

free me from the hell of not knowing how to design a website

i love htmx i just need to find somewhere to use it

@movq@www.uninformativ.de THESE ARE SO COOL OMG

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yeah i made it to the front bc i got there early!!! i was so happy :‘) the rooftop was such a vibe too

rilo kiley are the best <3

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com that’s so cool!!!

Yesterday, I published my first package on JSR: https://jsr.io/@itsericwoodward/fluent-dom-esm.

Then today, I pushed an update to my site to show my twts (including a schnazzy little animation to add them): https://itsericwoodward.com/

Overall, a most productive weekend.

@zvava@twtxt.net I reckon there’s currently nobody working on v2. Which timezone are you in? Just post your questions here or head over to #yarn.social at libera.chat for a more realtime conversation via IRC.

Thanks to a blog post by ~solderpunk and the presence of ImageMagick on my pubnix, all of my weirdcore art (apart from the animated works) is now under 32K in size! Honestly, I’d say the lower JPEG quality actually adds to the vibe of the images: something from the early web, taken permanently out of context and long forgotten.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh no, I completely missed it, didn’t think of it anymore! :-(

Thank you for the great photos! <3

Lunar eclipse just now: https://movq.de/v/f377c108cb

is there someone (ideally not in the opposite timezone to me) who’d be willing to let me bother them with technical questions abt twtxtv2 and/or yarn’s inner workings? :3

@thecanine@twtxt.net I’d expect especially power users not to use the web frontend. Unfortunately, in order to submit MR reviews that’s very often just the only option.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Uuhh, a rooftop concert! That sounds sick. I first learned about this in Electric Callboy’s tour report. They played the same location last year.

Heck yeah, you managed to be in the front rows. :-) I never heard about Rilo Kiley before, but the two songs I just listened to are good. Something to relax to.

Unfortunately, it’s not as sharp as I’d like it to be: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2025-09-07/

i went to a rilo kiley concert the other day and it was so special to me… i teared up at some of the songs but when “a better son/daughter” came on, i full on cried. what an amazing experience.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de this seems like a bit of an overkill, that would also harm modding and power users - who often need to see the exact implementation of new features and benefit from the ability to pull up the history of code changes, in their browser. Sure they could clone the repo and do that locally, but if it has dependencies, they’d also have to clone those, to see how those get updated and it’d soon be a mess.

new kamen rider is really good

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org that’s cool!!! i didn’t know that :0

How about no longer using in-browser Git repo viewers? Make the AI bots do the work and actually clone the repo.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Thanks! :-) I was reading the gakw manual when it started and caught up on the eels later. :-)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Completely off-topic, I didn’t know that the English language picked up the German word “Ersatz”. Discovering things like that always brings me joy. It has some interesting other properties, though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ersatz_good#Etymology

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz nooo my heart didn’t show up

That’s hot! Why Don’t Railroads Need Expansion Joints? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdj5-6t6QI8

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Holy shit, that’s insane! :-D I tried it, but i’m absolutely terrible at these type of games. I’m having trouble with the keys to move around. Maybe after ages I would pick it up and it becomes natural. I just was never a real gamer.

I will definitely try to read through the code, though! This looks sick. 8-)

i playing with custom iptv channels. ersatztv my beloved

so obsessed with this song https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WEX94Gro7Q

@movq@www.uninformativ.de lovely!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh, beautiful!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz like it’s the shame that kills me the most but i just gotta get through it if i want a working server (and i really do!!!)

finally ordered a motherboard to replace the one i fried in my brand new server T__T it hurt but i had to do it, i put it off for literal months
