I’ve already implemented like 4 new features today just out of necessity with my !sample_curation project.

@prologic do you have any info on how the '!' tags are supposed to work? are they just a different kind of hash tag?

@prologic@twtxt.net I see them is why I ask. like here #cwqmygq they use both hashtag and bangtag?

@prologic you think its time the version to get bumped? :)

@prologic@twtxt.net have you tried using the macos github build environment? looks like they have a windows one too.
On a related note, ‘hopwag’ sounds like a music genre
Can we not have clients sign their own public keys before listing them on their Pod’s account?
Yeah.. we probably could. when they setup an account they create a master key that signs any subsequent keys. or chain of signatures like keybase does.

@prologic just an off the wall question about hashes. why not use the time+message as it was in the original twtxt.txt file? is it because it's just not store anyplace?

@prologic@twtxt.net I see.. so using an ec25519 key as identity? and some kind of certificate to define the location of a feed? or maybe a DHT like Kademlia? TwTorrent ;)
@prologic@twtxt.net kinda like how MX records work.
@prologic@twtxt.net My thoughts on it being if they switched from a different way of hosting the file or multiple locations for redundancy..
I have an idea of using something like SRV records where they can define weighted url endpoints to reach.
@lyxal@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net yah. the service can have a flag for allowing non-TLS for development. but by default ignores.
are there some users that use alternative protos for twtxt? like ftp/gopher/dnsfs 🤔
Computers page looks like garbage, but at least I’ve finally gotten around to making it an official part of my site.
@prologic@twtxt.net an added benefit of the avatar: would be the user could put their gravatar/libravatar image url like https://key.sour.is/avatar/01bc6186d015218c23dec55447e502e669ca4c61c7566dfcaa1cac256108dff0
@prologic@twtxt.net looking through the drafts it looks like it actually used SRV records as recently as 2018 😵
@prologic@twtxt.net Web Key Directory: a way to self host your public key. instead of using a central system like pgp.mit.net or OpenPGP.org you have your key on a server you own.
it takes an email@address.com hashes the part before the @ and turns it into [openpgpkey.]address.com/.well-known/openpgpkey[/address.com]/<hash>
@prologic@twtxt.net Yep! installed it yesterday. I like the simplicity of twt. I am quite happy with how little memory the pod seems to use. Mastodon and the “lightweight” Pleroma don’t work well in small VMs.
That way at least we can form some kind of cryptographic “identity” without having to involve the users that much, it just works™
i like some of the work that keys.pub is doing with ed25519 crypto keys with something like that.
@prologic@twtxt.net this is a go version of Keyoxide.org that runs all server side. which is based on work from https://metacode.biz/openpgp/
OpenPGP has a part of the self signature reserved for notatinal data. which is basically a bunch of key/values.
this site tries to emulate the identity proofs of keybase but in a more decentralized/federation way.
my next steps are to have this project host WKD keys which is kinda like a self hosting of your pgp key that are also discoverable with http requests.
then to add a new notation for following other keys. where you can do a kind of web of trust.
ctop - Top-like Interface for Monitoring Docker Containers ⌘ https://www.tecmint.com/ctop-monitor-docker-containers/
plans for weewiki: a zettelkasten-like interface, a microblogging platform inspired by !twtxt, and some utilities for managing collections of SQLar archives. #updates #halfbakedideas
@lucididiot@tilde.town thank you for the backup! i agree that wiki is in dire need of some maintenance but that hardly seems like a reason to just up and delete it…
@vain@www.uninformativ.de your twtxt setup looks nice. It looks like what i’d like to do in some time when i’m better at Go
I’ve recently been reading up on zettelkastens again, since it is very closely related to the ethos of a personal wiki system like !weewiki. The thing that interests me is the emergent patterns that come from linking things to things. Which is exactly the sort of solution I’m looking for !sample_curation. #halfbakedideas
i like hugo a whole bunch, i just wish the docs didn’t make me go UGH sometimes
bashblog’s innards are interesting. it will take me a bit, but i’m sure i can reassemble it to my liking
i just closed a whole bunch of browser tabs. like over 20. i need to high 5 someone
i didn’t think clients would be necessary for something like twtxt and yet here we are
the rain pouring down on the roof sounded like a dialup modem connected to the internet
i tried joining twitter a couple times. i regretted it nearly instantly. this seems like it might be more up my alley. hello.
That’s good for the blue swarm, Trump Runs the Kind of Campaign He Likes, but Not the One He Might Need ⌘ https://nyti.ms/3kbSHD9
in the original twtxt your URL is your identity. No need for anyone outside your control to do account managment. One reason I’ll likely be sticking with command line. But, great work
@prologic@twtxt.net what is the exact syntax neeed for threads to work in the subject, e.g. will (#tsvhqdq) do it? The whole … (#tsvhqdq) thing seems like a bit of overkill. Too many characters.
@prologic@twtxt.net twtxt is so simple one could read with netcat, cat and tail. I like that.
been adopting a document-as-you go approach to the !monolith wiki. as I dogfood my software to make pieces an etudes like !breathing_cards, I write about it in a wiki stub. #workflow #documentation
added @!(sndkitref “bezier”)!@ to !sndkit today. coupled with @!(sndkitref “oscf”)!@, it is capable of making some really weird wet FM-y sounds. Me like! #updates #sndkit
