@movq@www.uninformativ.de this will be me soon just wait

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I FOUND ANOTHER ONE OF THESE TUX GUYS FROM THIS SAME SHOP ON EBAY, IT’S NOT THE SAME ONE I LINKED BUT I MADE AN OFFER, EVERYONE PRAY FOR ME I WANT A TUX ARMY

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i’m actually going to cry real tears they only ship to germany, austria, and switzerland

@movq@www.uninformativ.de oh my fucking god these steiner plushies are so cute i’m gonna die

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org How did I miss this one? Nice birb! 🐦

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I can’t read. 🤦 Yeah, that’s gonna be a problem. I was not yet able to trigger it, though. Maybe they are (like Google) rolling out these changes gradually …

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You reckon that’s a real possibility? 🤔

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz It would right 😅

@bender@twtxt.net 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de god i want this too

@bender@twtxt.net I might be a bit too negative today. 😅 I just wonder how long it’ll take until they also restrict Git operations. 🤷

@prologic@twtxt.net right. I wonder what prompted the measure. Perhaps Microsoft doesn’t want any scrapper but Copilot to be lurking around? That might even sound as anti-competitive. I wonder how long will it take for lawsuits to kick in.

@bender@twtxt.net I normally don’t myself either, but that saide, I think that’s kind of @movq@www.uninformativ.de’s point right? This new unauthenticated rate limit is absurd! 😱 You may as well just fucking 403 Forbidden and be done with it 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net that will not be a problem; as long as it doesn’t affect authenticated users it wouldn’t make a difference. But we are comparing apples and eggs here. I don’t access GitHub while unauthenticated, but I can see how others might. It comes across as anti-web in general.

@prologic@twtxt.net oh yeah a friend of mine ran into that after they forgot to log in while we were working on something together, it was nuts lol

like wouldn’t it be easier to do proof of work or something?!?!

@bender@twtxt.net Basically the way I’m reading this is 1 RPM. This is a rather aggressive rate limit actually. This basically makes Github inaccessible and useless for basically anything unless you’re logged in. You can basically kiss “pursuing” casually, anonymously goodbye.

Imagine if I imposed that kind of rate limit on twtxt.net?! 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de, “60 requests per hour”, eh? Was that a thing (that is, unauthenticated access to GitHub)?! I know I am on the minority, perhaps, as I rarely (or never) access GitHub unauthenticated.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org It’s funny/interesting what people see in these. 😃 @aelaraji@aelaraji.com said that some of them look like a brain on a reflective surface, and now I can’t unsee it. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz There are two more shops that sell the “classic” Tuxes: https://ixsoft.de and https://www.steiner-plueschshop.de – both German shops, though. 🥴 Anyway, if you can make one yourself, that’d be extra cool. 😃

@bender@twtxt.net They usually roll out this stuff slowly, yeah. 🫤

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Also the so-called “deadline” isn’t set it stone. We’re all busy people with day jobs and lives, so we may have to move it anyway 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org crispy! Lovely pic, Lyse!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de hmm, I still see the first screenshot at my end. Is that something upcoming, or perhaps being rolled out slowly?

@xuu@txt.sour.is Good point! What did you have in mind? 🙏

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org No not yet!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com DO IT DO IT DO IT (enabling)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz come on! Stop giving me ideas when I’m bored, specially when there’s a sewing machine in a room next to mine xD

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org those tuxes are kinda cute but not what i’m looking for! i want a silly stupid looking tux the most lol

@javivf@adn.org.es use 6697 as port, make sure it is using TLS to connect.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I was about to say that you can always just buy one, but apparently that’s not so easy anymore?! What the heck happened? 🤨 There used to be several shops here in Germany that sold a variety of Tux plushies, but none of that exists anymore … 😳

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Thanks, I hope so too. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de i know that feeling T__T hope you get some energy soon!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I CAN’T FUCKING SEW I’M GOING TO BRIBE MY SISTER TO MAKE ME ONE

@bender@twtxt.net Good , glad you agree 👍

@javivf@adn.org.es Sorry. 😂 Meet me on IRC at irc.mills.io in #edgeguard 👌 I’m @james@yarn.mills.io there 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Haha fine 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net where on IRC? Network, channel, nick? IRC is vast! It’s like saying, “meet me in Australia, and we go from there!” 😅

@javivf@adn.org.es Hit me up on IRC or something and we’ll get started 👌

@bender@twtxt.net it’s here!!!! i’m so happy with it :DDD hugo is awesome, i just found astro to be easiest to customize!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz so, where is the site? Show us, show us! I use Hugo exclusively, just a binary. My sites also build upon a commit, on my own VPS. 🙈

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i’m so obsessed like now i actually wanna play with the site more https://bytes.4-walls.net/kat/eunoia-astro

@prologic@twtxt.net hahahah i chose astro!

@prologic@twtxt.net noted!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yeahhh very true stuff. find is annoying af i just use fd when i can

@prologic@twtxt.net it’s so annoying!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de :DDD

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Tux plushie is life, Tux plushie is best friend 🤘

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I actually use sift a lot these days for most “searching” – at least code and text searching. For finding files by name I still use find | grep.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @prologic@twtxt.net Given that all these programs are super old (tar is from the late 1970ies), while trying to retain backwards-compatibilty, I’m not surprised that the UI isn’t too great. 🤔

find has quite a few pitfalls, that is very true. At work, we don’t even use it anymore in more complex scenarios but write Python scripts instead. find can be fast and efficient, but fewer and fewer people lack the knowledge to use it … The same goes for Shell scripting in general, actually.
