@xuu@txt.sour.is You got any time/energy to help me test this? 🤔 There’s a process for indexing an existing archive too…

Okay, I’ve built full search capabilities for yarnd
😅 Let’s see how many bugs I’ve created 🤣
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think my daughter might be finally 🤔 She’s 9 now and getting into table tennis 🏓 whoot whoot! 🥳 So… Maybe…
Yeah nothing being logged, so all the “golden paths” are being executed hmm 🧐
@bmallred@staystrong.run I don’t think so. Let me check my pod’s logs now though that I know you’re pulling me feed…. One sec…
@prologic@twtxt.net That must be hard indeed. 🤔 Are the kids old enough to be interested in this kind of stuff? (Are kids in generall still interested in this? 😂)
@prologic@twtxt.net I see in my feeds header I am following two instances for you:
maybe this is an issue?
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I’ll see if I can get back into this, everytime I see you post stuff like this it makes me want to go out again 🤣 Bit hard for a blind guy to do it all, but still I try 😅
The weird this is I still see your profile as
bmallred may not follow you
I assume you share your followings publicly, I see them on your feed, so I assume so. I was going to debug this on my side too today to see if.I goofed something up but my pod is rather busy so I hadn’t done that yet 😅 (actually working again finally on search)
@bmallred@staystrong.run D’oh 😅 Just in the nick of time haha 😜 Good o, I’m very pleased this all works across very different pieces of software 👌
@prologic@twtxt.net Right! I think I remember 😅
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh that’s hilarious 😆 I have the exact same setup (minus any filters, I only have those for my Celestron NextStar 4SE telescope) 🔭
@prologic@twtxt.net Thanks 😅
This is my setup, I think I posted these before:
It’s a Celestron Ultima 100 (originally bought for bird watching, not a telescope) with a special adapter so that I can mount my Canon EOS 600D directly. The sun filter is just a generic filter for 100mm scopes. The tripod isn’t very good and actually rather annoying. 😂
It’s not a very complicated setup. 🤔 Being able to mount the camera directly is crucial.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Wow! 🤩 That is impressive! 👌 Do you mind sharing how you went about doing this? 🙏
I was able to take a photo of the large sunspots that made the news these days:
https://www.uninformativ.de/pics/photo/astro/2024-05-11–IMG_7512-sun-AR3664.jpg
It’s not a super high quality shot, my scope isn’t good enough for that. Still cool to see. 😎
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com It would appear so. 🤔 (I’m too lazy to set that up, though, I rather just don’t use notifications. They’re not that important in this case.)
I was not aware that I needed a cloud service for something as (seemingly) simple as local app notifications. 😳
Another thing that doesn’t work anymore after blocking network traffic from my Android phone: Some push notifications.
I run a Matrix server for our family. I use “FluffyChat” on my phone. Traffic from the phone to my Matrix server is allowed and chatting in FluffyChat works.
But I don’t get any notifications anymore on new messages.
So, what’s going on here? Does FluffyChat, which only really needs to talk to my own server, rely on some cloud service for notifications? Seriously? 🤔 How does that work, does this cloud service see all my notifications or what?
Anyone around who did app development on Android? Can you shed some light on this?
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Look forward to the results 🤞
Oh so it really does hit some stupid arbitrary endpoint at AWS 😱
(The old device I’m referring to was a handheld device. It was not built into the car and was not running 24/7.)
I’ll make an experiment: I’ll keep blocking all the phone’s internet traffic and then we’ll see how bad the GPS performance will get in a couple of hours/days. 😅 (If I got it all wrong and it still works fine, that’d be great!)
@prologic@twtxt.net Regarding the static URL: The hostname at least is a CNAME record and resolves to something at cloudfront. What I meant was that I, as a user, cannot configure this URL anywhere in the Android UI. 🤔
@prologic@twtxt.net Hmm, have you used a GPS device 15, 20 years ago? I had one in my car. It would take a long time until it got a first “fix” of your location. That’s because it can take up to 12 minutes until you have gathered all the data directly from the satellites. These days, GPS trackers on smartphones get a fix within seconds, maybe 30 seconds tops, because they get pre-seeded with (approximated) satellite positions via A-GPS.
We also not only have the USA’s GPS these days but also other satellite systems like the EU’s Galileo or Russia’s Glonass. A-GPS helps you get “in contact” quickly with more satellites, which enhances the precision quite a lot.
So, yeah, you can use it without A-GPS. But it would be very annoying and imprecise. I bought a new phone last year and A-GPS was broken on that one (I saw no internet traffic at all), which made it basically useless, to the point where I wouldn’t want to use it at all. I sent it back and bought another model.
To my knowledge, the only way to use GPS without something like A-GPS is to have it turned on all the time, so you get regular updates directly from the satellites.
Hey @bmallred@staystrong.run 👋 Can you see this? 🤔
