There is currently no easy and safe standard way to gift Monero to people around you. It is possible to gift a wallet containing money. However, malicious people can use this to trick people into using the wallet they gifted them and steal the money after the recipient puts in more money, so this is unacceptable.

(#2024-09-24T12:45:54Z) @prologic@twtxt.net I’m not really buying this one about readability.

#fzf is the new emacs: a tool with a simple purpose that has evolved to include an #email client. https://sr.ht/~rakoo/omail/
I’m being a little silly, of course. fzf doesn’t actually check your email, but it appears to be basically the whole user interface for that mail program, with #mblaze wrangling the emails.
I’ve been thinking about how I handle my email, and am tempted to make something similar. (When I originally saw this linked the author was presenting it as an example tweaked to their own needs, encouraging people to make their own.)
This approach could surely also be combined with #jenny, taking the place of (neo)mutt. For example mblaze’s mthread tool presents a threaded discussion with indentation.
@prologic@twtxt.net Do you have a link to some past discussion?
Would the GDPR would apply to a one-person client like jenny? I seriously hope not. If someone asks me to delete an email they sent me, I don’t think I have to honour that request, no matter how European they are.
I am really bothered by the idea that someone could force me to delete my private, personal record of my interactions with them. Would I have to delete my journal entries about them too if they asked?
Maybe a public-facing client like yarnd needs to consider this, but that also bothers me. I was actually thinking about making an Internet Archive style twtxt archiver, letting you explore past twts, including long-dead feeds, see edit histories, deleted twts, etc.
给独立游戏制作人的进阶建议
感谢 @ComfyFinn 提供的封面图
之前我写过一篇给新手独立游戏开发者的入门级建议,经过三年的开发,对于独立游戏制作这件事我有了一些新的理解和看法,所以是时候补充一篇进阶级的建议了。如果你希望成为一个独立游戏制作人或者希望了解相关行业的部分知识,也许这篇文章会给你一些有用的帮助。
特别的,本文的内容更多的偏向于独立游戏制作人和小型团队,并不适用于所有的情况,所以在阅读时请注意保持个人的独立思考,对所有内容应仅当参考。

各自精彩——《无敌号》原著与游戏情节对比
题记:我们是否应该为了船只遭遇海难而去鞭笞海洋?
(通篇高能剧透。想自己玩的就biè看。)
三年前的秋天,触乐登了一篇文章( https://www.chuapp.com/article/287547.html),科普《无敌号》的核心科幻创意——能够自我复制的机器,同时为《无敌号》游戏作了一个简短的前瞻。
当时我很兴奋。因为在那文章发布之前几个月,我就把《无敌号》加入了愿望单,但我从来没奢望过会在任何游戏媒体上看到关于这个游戏的前瞻。这个游戏几乎是各种小众标签的集合体——波兰科幻作家莱姆、彼时尚无中文译本的《无敌号》原著、步行模拟类游戏、没有战斗、并非名门的开发商,总之看不出有任何卖座的可能性,哪怕文章发布十个月之后《无敌号》原著的中文版上市了也还是如此。

@xuu@txt.sour.is Thanks for the link. I found a pdf on one of the authors’ home pages: https://ahmadhassandebugs.github.io/assets/pdf/quic_www24.pdf . I wonder how the protocol was evaluated closer to the time it became a standard, and whether anything has changed. I wonder if network speeds have grown faster than CPU speeds since then. The paper says the performance is around the same below around 600 Mbps.
To be fair, I don’t think QUIC was ever expected to be faster for transferring a single stream of data. I think QUIC is supposed to reduce the impact of a dropped packet by making sure it only affects the stream it’s part of. I imagine QUIC still has that advantage, and this paper is showing the other side of a tradeoff.

So this is a great thread. I have been thinking about this too.. and what if we are coming at it from the wrong direction? Identity being tied to a given URL has always been a pain point. If i get a new URL its almost as if i have a new identity because not only am I serving at a new location but all my previous communications are broken because the hashes are all wrong.
What if instead we used this idea of signatures to thread the URLs together into one identity? We keep the URL to Hash in place. Changing that now is basically a no go. But we can create a signature chain that can link identities together. So if i move to a new URL i update the chain hosted by my primary identity to include the new URL. If i have an archived feed that the old URL is now dead, we can point to where it is now hosted and use the current convention of hashing based on the first url:
The signature chain can also be used to rotate to new keys over time. Just sign in a new key or revoke an old one. The prior signatures remain valid within the scope of time the signatures were made and the keys were active.
The signature file can be hosted anywhere as long as it can be fetched by a reasonable protocol. So say we could use a webfinger that directs to the signature file? you have an identity like frank@beans.co that will discover a feed at some URL and a signature chain at another URL. Maybe even include the most recent signing key?
From there the client can auto discover old feeds to link them together into one complete timeline. And the signatures can validate that its all correct.
I like the idea of maybe putting the chain in the feed preamble and keeping the single self contained file.. but wonder if that would cause lots of clutter? The signature chain would be something like a log with what is changing (new key, revoke, add url) and a signature of the change + the previous signature.
