@bender@twtxt.net Time to update my machines! 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net The Mouse is the superstar! Go Mouse, go Mouse! 🎉🎉🎉

This is fixed now 🥳 Thanks @xuu@txt.sour.is!

@bender@twtxt.net I believe that’s the only way. We’ll deal with it as it comes up I think.

@prologic@twtxt.net it’s a pickle. Then sanitise the outliers. No other way.

@bender@twtxt.net I can fix and make that work in the parser too. But I’m no longer sure how to cater for the general case. It’s too much to support all punctuation whilst at the same time as other contradicting rules. For example you cannot both support . in nicknames and then expect to be able to to end a mention with a . 🤦‍♂️

@prologic@twtxt.net how about @ and @ Will that work?

@bender@twtxt.net Yes I know 🤣 It’s okay, we just have to build better parsers 😅

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci totally my fault sorry 😞

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci two things. Conduwuit, a Matrix server written in Rust, is no longer going to be developed. The other is, I didn’t mean to tag you, but because Yarnd was broken it happened. Apologies.

@bender@twtxt.net Drugs.

@prologic@twtxt.net having rules like this on a decentralised system is nearly impossible. LOL. Ahhh, one of the many perks of decentralisation!

@bender@twtxt.net What is happening?

@bender@twtxt.net What even is this post?

@bender@twtxt.net LOL 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net I would say “We are going to the adult’s toy store for our yearly haul”, though “going to a house of burlesque” would work too! LOL.

Whereas @movq@www.uninformativ.de @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org and @bender@twtxt.net are all cool 😎

That’s kind of weird actually. Hmmm @ @ and @bender@twtxt.net are all cool 😎

@bender@twtxt.net This story just reminds me of the couple of times we’ve paid for things in cash 💰 💲 and the stupid banks with the ridiculous “scam alert policy” ask you all kind of dumb ass questions about what you need the cash for 🤦‍♂️ One of these days I need an excuse to buy something that costs a few $k just so I can answer when asked, “what do you need the cash for?” to which my response will be “drugs and hookers of course!” 🤣

Testing mentions, immediately followed by commas. Let’s see: @prologic@twtxt.net, this one is local, it might not break. Now, this one @ isn’t local. Nor this @ one. Will they break. Let’s find out!

@bender@twtxt.net Sounds good to me! Done ✅ Also you did some, so thanks! 🙏

This is something for @movq@www.uninformativ.de and old OS hobbyists alike: FreeDOS 1.4! Get it while it’s hot!

@prologic@twtxt.net why not blanket closing everything older than, say, 3 months? Yarnd is quite a different beast today, right? Let’s start over!

@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt Remind me alter 🙏

@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt Because I’m a lazy project manage and I haven’t grooomed the backlog in a while 🤣 Since you’re there, do you mind cleaning it up for me? 🙏

@prologic@twtxt.net @andros@twtxt.andros.dev You can delete these feeds (created by me):
https://feeds.twtxt.net/project26/twtxt.txt
https://lor.sh/@Katze_942.rss <- i’m added him but can’t find file
the only rss i follow is https://feeds.twtxt.net/posts-from-atdarkcat09atdc09-ru/twtxt.txt

@prologic@twtxt.net Yarn repo has 88 issues open, some related to ActivityPub. Why you do not close it?

@prologic@twtxt.net exactly!!!! thank you <33

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz creating habits or rituals as hard, dropping ones that you no longer need or considered harmful is even harder! Good luck! 🙏

@prologic@twtxt.net LMAOOOOO TWINS

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz That’s what she said 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org so cute and so pretty!

@bender@twtxt.net WHO CARRIES $3K IN CASH AROUND IN A BAG

@mana@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz FUCK YEAH!!! you did it right :D love it

@mana@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz HI MANA!!!!!!!!

Responded to a bunch of Twtxt open issues across multiple repositories today 👌

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz you could add an “I host other people stuff” page #Brainstorming 😁

@bender@twtxt.net You said:

as long as those working on clients can reach an agreement on how to move forward. That has proven, though, to be a pickle in the past.

I think this is because we probably need to start thinking about three different aspects to the ecosystem and document them out:

• Specifications (as they are now)
  
• Server recommendations (e.g: Timeline, yarnd, etc)
  
• Client recommendations (e.g: jenny, tt, tt2, twet, etc)

@bender@twtxt.net wut?! Who carries three grand worth of cash in their handbag?! 👜 Haha 😆

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh, and thanks for the bigger photo! I like how it lovely fill the twtxt in Yarnd. Woot!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I can see somebody put a good effort coming up with some pretty cool goodies! We, Floridians, envy your proper April weather. We are toasting already, and it is not even May. Send us some rain, please!

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev nothing stands still, I agree. I think current twtxt has surpassed the initial specification, while still being relatively backwards compliant/compatible but, for how long?

As for new extensions (DM, for example), they should be OK as long as those working on clients can reach an agreement on how to move forward. That has proven, though, to be a pickle in the past.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Bahahaha so do it all the time 🤣

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Some good points here that I share and empathize with 🙌

@bender@twtxt.net I see hmmm 🧐

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Zulu said:

what is twtxt for you?

For me Twtxt is just the underlying format that Yarn.social builds upon 😅

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Ahh cool! I’ll try following it again 🤣 Mind @-mentioning/linking@twtxt.net the feed again? 🙏

@quark@ferengi.one I know! I saw three Hacker News posts on it in a row 🤣

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Haha 🤣 We’ve explored this idea in the past and we decided that it’s actually a good idea to have an “append-only” feed for various reasons. We’ve also explored the idea of using Range requests, but opted instead to just archive/rotate our feeds periodically 😅 There really isn’t much point in having a feed in reverse chronological order, except (maybe?) so a human read view the new twts at the top of the file?! 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net “curated” channels (you can see the guide to see the topics it covers), without the ability to fast forward, nor pause. You know, like live television.
