Well, I figured that itād be best and I go ahead and start a recipe site, since it came up. Iāll go ahead and tell you RSS chads.
Itās based.cooking (yes, apparently .cooking is a TLD nowadays).
The site isnāt much of a looker now. Just simple CSS, so feel free to open PRs with elegant improvements.

Wallpaper gray on LARBS?
If after a recent update, xwallpaper isnāt setting your wallpaper on boot in LARBS, itās because xwallpaper is giving an error with the recent version of glibc.
Thereās already an issue up about this on the xwallpaper Github and hopefully it will be fixed soon. Out of my control.
You can spend a little time learning alternate ways to set wallpapers in the meantime, or learn to love gray. ā Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net I am trying to cut costs, so I deleted all my Digital Ocean droplets. For a month I will be using a free s390x VPS, so I needed to adapt some of my Docker images, scripts and configurations for that architecture. Also took another chance with Traefik Proxy, I ditched it long ago for nginx-proxy, but this time I made it work. #h5nn5tq

But then I moved. Moved to the big city, a place filled with people themselves big on compliments. My upbringing had left me underprepared for these changes. Even something as simple as receiving praise was complicated. There certainly were times when my soul would be lit up with joy. But other times, my feelings were murkier. The compliment left me feeling weirdly uncomfortable. How to Compliment | Less Penguiny

Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking, just as the man who spends too much time in the theater is tempted to be content with living vicariously instead of living his own life.

Being misunderstood is a great temporary moat. I could write a book on this, but suffice it to say, I didnāt have confidence in my own vision until I took the time to really look at others and realized that the main difference between me and the average idiot was that I had bothered to look at the ideas of other idiots at all. It was like their entire ontology had become an ant farm. It was the moment I realized, I am a super-idiot. I only half joke, because becoming a super-idiot liberated me from the perfectionism and the addiction to approval that caused a stultifying and primal narcissistic fear of criticism.

@prologic@twtxt.net 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 itās just not store anyplace?
also how set in stone is using user+url? vs user@domain? the latter would mean the url could change without invalidating the hash.
@prologic@twtxt.netd so.. convert the 4 attributes in the struct to private, add getters plus some the other methods that make sense.

Western culture has a very unhealthy attitude towards sleep in general. There is only one socially accepted sleep pattern: Eight hours a night, in one block, starting at between 10pm and 11pm and ending between 6am and 7am. This āearly-birdā rhythm is celebrated in to the point of fetishisation and held up as the goal to which all productive adults must aspire.

with some scripting, I could probably use my upcoming !weewiki !zettelkasten as a drop-in replacement for !twtxt, and then generate the twtxt file. however, I think I am going to keep them separate for the time being. let them both grow to serve different purposes.

I applaud this, but I also advise against this for your career. Unless the change youāre making has immediate and significant business benefits, from a PM/EM perspective youāre 1) wasting time 2) potentially introducing bugs. The correct move is to wait until the org is so bogged down with tech debt that meaningful progress cannot be made, then switch companies/teams.
