@bender@twtxt.net Sadly, it’s super relevant. It’s a really good sketch. I’m actually surprised you know this German series. :-)

@zvava@twtxt.net Yeah, mentions are a great way to discover other feeds.

Regarding the “look at this, but I don’t want to add anything at all”, this never happened to me. Apparently, it seems to be a thing for others.

@zvava@twtxt.net it is amazing how much you have accomplished in such a short time. Take time to sleep, though! :-)

@zvava@twtxt.net I am getting [2025/09/11 12:56:01.816] ⇒ please set config.host when trying to run “bbycll”. How to bypass that tiny hurdle?

@zvava@twtxt.net I gave this, in my mind, a like/star/love.

Yes, I know, this is a “bad taste” joke. I appreciate you, @thecanine@twtxt.net!

@thecanine@twtxt.net or, you know, you could get an iPhone. 😂😂😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha, that girl is good! :-D

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I reckon the original <details> need to have the open attribute set in order to expand it, so I cannot just define some custom CSS rules to do that in my browser.

But in regards to twtxt, my client won’t hide anything in that realm anyway. :-) It’s just more noise.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz it is not showing for me, on a validator. Missing something?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ouch 😲

@dce@hashnix.club Nope. 😃 What’s that genre called? Sounds like old horror movies from the 70’ies (or it could be a soundtrack to Salad Fingers, if anyone remembers that).

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I hope so 😅

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ta. The only good use for <details> is to collapse long logs in bug analysis reports. Other than that, I find it rather annoying to expand sections manually.

As for spoilers, personally, I don’t care at all. Not the slightest bit. If there is something that I don’t wanna read, I just stop reading. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

But I’ve got the feeling that I’ve got an unpopular opinion on that matter. ;-)

@bender@twtxt.net I see, thanks. Well, I never found these warnings useful. To hide answers to conundrums or the like, ROT13ing or base64-encoding them is plenty sufficient.

Hahaha, I never heard of Poopgate before. :-D Poor passengers.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz all @prologic@twtxt.net has to do is to allow <details> and the subset under it. Granted, it could be implemented on the formatting toolbar too…

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org a content warning is a way to tell the audience the content they are about to see is (or might be) shocking, or unsuitable, or unlikable. The audience can then chose to see it, or not. You know, akin of movies stating:

“Warning: The following film contains scenes that some viewers may find disturbing. Viewer discretion is advised.”

@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

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 🔥🔥🔥

@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.

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

@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.

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. 🙈

@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.

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

Thank you for the great photos! <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.

@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

@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-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Despite you claim it to be pretty simple, rest assured, you’re still a wizard to me. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Interesting, yes. I didn’t know that.

No AI being used is really great. However, the same clips shown over and over again and some images being mirrored was quite annoying to me. Also, there were some quite terrible computer animations and sometimes the narration and picture didn’t match at all. Talking about the medieval period and then showing an image from the 18th hundred or so. What the heck?

These production issues made me sceptical pretty much early on. So I quickly crosschecked Wikipedia. But it seems spot on from what I’ve read. Very good. Also, the narrator’s voice was really nice to listen to.

Eels are fascinating creatures. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nice! And I didn’t look out the window at all. Was watching eels. 😂

@movq@www.uninformativ.de woot! 🙏🏻

@bender@twtxt.net The person actually reached out to me. It’s all good. ✌️

@dce@hashnix.club Oof, that’s surprising. I wouldn’t have expected that to be so slow. 😳😳😳

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org You might enjoy this one: https://github.com/TheMozg/awk-raycaster

Dear dev.alessandrocutolo.it, do you really need to fetch my twtxt feed every 20-30 seconds? 😅 Not that it’s posing a problem, but I feel like this could be optimized. For example, how about using the if-modified-since request header: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Reference/Headers/If-Modified-Since

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @dce@hashnix.club It’s pretty cool, I won’t argue that, but also really simple, to be completely honest. 😅 The BIOS already provides all you need to send data to the printer:

https://helppc.netcore2k.net/interrupt/bios-printer-services

The BIOS actually does provide a great deal of things, which, to me, was one of the most surprising learnings of this project (the project of writing a little 16-bit real-mode OS, that is). It often doesn’t feel like I was writing an operating system – it felt more like writing a normal program that just uses BIOS calls like we would use syscalls these days.

(I’ve also read a lot of warnings, like “don’t use the BIOS for this or that”. Mostly because it tends to be very slow.)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Woah, heck yeah, congratulations, mate!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de That’s pretty!

@dce@hashnix.club Which Thinkpad specifically is this? “Late-2010s” doesn’t sound very old, to be honest, I wonder why OpenBSD is giving you so much trouble. 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh no! 😱😱😱

@zvava@twtxt.net That’s a double-sided sword, I’d day. This also helps the bad guy kick out the rightful owner. Anyway. Happy hacking!

@dce@hashnix.club Apart from the crap produced in Redmond two decades ago, I only ever used and still happily use Linux, mainly Debian and Ubuntu. I’ve no idea, but maybe something in there catches your eye: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_operating_systems (I know, what a silly recommendation.)
