10 Cool Gold Rushes They Don’t Teach in History Class
There’s no question that you were taught about gold rushes as a kid in history class. The great California Gold Rush of 1849 is probably the one you are most familiar with. That’s the case for most people, at least. Other gold rushes in the western part of the United States were also notable: the […]

Science Fiction’s Ten Coolest Spaceships
Science fiction is undoubtedly one of the world’s most widely appreciated entertainment mediums, and spaceships are one of the genre’s key aspects. Space exploration wouldn’t be possible without vehicles of some sort. Whether transport ships, warships, or ships of exploration, spaceships make it all possible. Most of them are pretty cool-looking and do some pretty […]

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i don’t even have like time or space to stream unless it was no mic/video and just me doing stuff on my computer which can be boring without even mic input. plus no way to use camcorder that way. but. it’d be cool if i could so i dream

That pretty cool! I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen an actual IRL rainbow let alone a double rainbow. 😅 Thank you!!

@prologic@twtxt.net YESSS i’m gonna be using tiny pilot’s software on mine! i was inspired by jet too but mine won’t look nearly as cool lol

@prologic@twtxt.net YEAH it’s so cool!!! i was thinking about trying it as sorta practice for golang lol

morning yarn friends i’ve been playing with astro the SSG and it’s a blast i see why my friends love it and rec it to everyone. i may think javascript was a mistake but this is super cool

my camcorder battery & mini dvds came in the mail so i did a test recording! it’s so cool i love the crap quality. i do hope the memory stick arrives soon though because for the discs i can’t get them on my computer (not even a rom drive filesystem mount) without “finalizing” the disc which is like an old camcorder thing. i still think i’ll prefer disc recording though even if a limit of 30 minutes (or longer for lower quality) is strict. i like limitations like that

@prologic@twtxt.net this is epic… you’ve made a great platform!!! screw big tech we got literal threads here. X, The Everything App, wishes it had literal yarn threads smh my head. also twtxt is so cool like i love that yarn is a frontend for it but also its own thing. all plaintext… coolest shit ever

it’s so cool!!!

this is so cool i hope i can get friends to join

asciinema is really cool. thought about self hosting my own upload site which they have docs for but i don’t need to host everything even if it’d be a fun project. the default/main site is fine enough for me when i won’t be uploading a whole lot.

being a k-pop fan in nerd circles means no one will ever take you seriously. the solution is to be so unserious and insane that it wraps back around to people taking you seriously as you do cool things while being deeply unserious

10 Super Unsettling Finds Dug Up at the Jamestown Colony
Jamestown, Virginia, is a pretty cool place. After all, it was the first permanent English settlement ever established in the New World. And since it was first settled in 1607, it has some pretty incredible history tied to it. The very founding of the United States of America links all the way back to Jamestown. […]

@prologic@twtxt.net Just that people thought twtxt sounded cool and maybe want to set it up themself

Recent #fiction #scifi #reading:

• The Memory Police by Yōko Ogawa. Lovely writing. Very understated; reminded me of Kazuo Ishiguro. Sort of like Nineteen Eighty-Four but not. (I first heard it recommended in comparison to that work.)

• Subcutanean by Aaron Reed; https://subcutanean.textories.com/ . Every copy of the book is different, which is a cool idea. I read two of them (one from the library, actually not different from the other printed copies, and one personalized e-book). I don’t read much horror so managed to be a little creeped out by it, which was fun.

• The Wind from Nowhere, a 1962 novel by J. G. Ballard. A random pick from the sci-fi section; I think I picked it up because it made me imagine some weird 4-dimensional effect (“from nowhere” meaning not in a normal direction) but actually (spoiler) it was just about a lot of wind for no reason. The book was moderately entertaining but there was nothing special about it.

Currently reading Scale by Greg Egan and Inversion by Aric McBay.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I figured it will be something like this, yet, you were able to reply just fine, and I wasn’t. Looking at your twtxt.txt I see this line:

2024-09-16T17:37:14+00:00	(#o6dsrga) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt>

@<quark https://ferengi.one/twtxt.txt> This is what I get. 🤔

Which is using the right hash. Mine, on the other hand, when I replied to the original, old style message (Message-Id: <o6dsrga>), looks like this:

2024-09-16T16:42:27+00:00	(#o) @<prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> this was your first twtxt. Cool! :-P

What did you do to make yours work? I simply went to the oldest @prologic@twtxt.net’s entry on my Maildir, and replied to it (jenny set the reply-to hash to #o, even though the Message-Id is o6dsrga). Since jenny can’t fetch archived twtxts, how could I go to re-fetch everything? And, most importantly, would re-fetching fix the Message-Id:?

This is how my original message shows up on jenny:

I must admit Tailscale is really cool and why I haven’t used it before now is beyond me 😅

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no @xuu@txt.sour.is @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org “Not cool”? I was receiving many broken (HTTP 400 error) requests per second from an IP address I didn’t recognize, right after having my VPS crash because the hard drive filled up with bogus data. None of this had happened on this VPS before, so it was a new problem that I didn’t understand and I took immediate action to get it under control. Of course I reported the IP address to its abuse email. That’s a 100% normal, natural, and “cool” thing to do in such a situation. At the time I had no idea it was @xuu@txt.sour.is .

The moment I realized it was @xuu@txt.sour.is and definitely a false alarm, I emailed the ISP and told them this was a false positive and to not ban or block the IP in question because it was not abusive traffic. They haven’t yet responded but I do hope they’ve stopped taking action, and if there’s anything else I can do to certify to them that this is not abuse then I will do that.

I run numerous services on that VPS that I rely on, and I spent most of my day today cleaning up the mess all this has caused. I get that this caused @xuu@txt.sour.is a lot of stress and I’m sincerely sorry about that and am doing what I can to rectify the situation. But calling me “not cool” isn’t necessary. This was an unfortunate situation that we’re trying to make right and there’s no need for criticizing anyone.

Here has been north of 38C all week. Its pretty ick. I would love a bit of rain to cool down.

Very cool! Interestingly using your web app, the result was a higher bitrate than when I downloaded the best audio only option in yt-dlp (258 kbit/s vs 140 kbit/s).

Don’t quite understand that but nice work 😅

Titus in the Hotseat on “Lunduke: The Alex Jones of Linux”
Our buddy, Chris Titus, put out a show entitled “Lunduke: The Alex Jones of Linux”. Now, obviously, I had to invite him over to The Lunduke Journal to tell him all of the things he got wildly wrong. Note: This is two people disagreeing on some things – while agreeing on others – and being cool to each other about all of it. This is how it should be. ⌘ Read more

I’m also more in favor of #reposts being human readable and writable. A client might implement a bottom that posts something simple like: #repost Look at this cool stuff, because bla bla [alt](url)

This will then make it possible to also “repost” stuff from other platforms/protocols.

The reader part of a client, can then render a preview of the link, which we talked about would be a nice (optional) feature to have in yarnd.

I have been really impressed with the cool visualizations in pygame that @gereleth over on Twitter has been making. #AdventOfCode

This is some cool development for the go 1.22 standard http mux. Its adding the ability to have path vars and define methods for handlers. Also the errors are quite helpful if you have conflicting paths!

@prologic@twtxt.net whoa that’s so cool!

Russia blowing up the Nova Kakhovka dam is an incomprehensible war crime. Among other things, it drains water from the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, water that is needed for cooling. They are trying to generate a widespread disaster.

They must be stopped, immediately, without hesitation. This is unacceptable behavior, crossing every red line we have no matter our politics, without any doubt.

@shreyan@twtxt.net I agree re: AR. Vircadia is neat. I stumbled on it years ago when I randomly started wondering “wonder what’s going on with Second Life and those VR things” and started googling around.

Unfortunately, like so many metaverse efforts, it’s almost devoid of life. Interesting worlds to explore, cool tools to build your own stuff, but almost no people in it. It feels depressing, like an abandoned shopping mall.

(1) You go to the store and buy a microwave pizza. You go home, put it in the microwave, heat it up. Maybe it’s not quite the way you like it, so you put some red pepper on it, maybe some oregano.

Are you a pizza chef? No. Do we know what your cooking is like? Also no.

(2) You create a prompt for StableDiffusion to make a picture of an elephant. What pops out isn’t quite to your liking. You adjust the prompt, tweak it a bunch, till the elephant looks pretty cool.

Are you an artist? No. Do we know what your art is like? Also no.

The elephant is “fake art” in a similar sense to how a microwave pizza is “fake pizza”. That’s what I meant by that word. The microwave pizza is a sort of “simulation of pizza”, in this sense. The generated elephant picture is a simulation of art, in a similar sense, though it’s even worse than that and is probably more of a simulacrum of art since you can’t “consume” an AI-generated image the way you “consume” art.

Very cool. I like the chain rules. I wonder how it performs against lextwt.
