@rdlmda@rdlmda.me What a truly wonderful description. ;‘-D But sorry to hear that. Luckily, no issues over here. It’s extremely rare that this happens. Last time (around five years ago or so) they were cutting down trees in the forest and threw a tree in the overhead power line (which had been converted to underground last year). Power had to be killed in order for the fire brigade to actually extinguish the fire.

@thecanine@twtxt.net sorry to hear that, mate. Don’t worry, something better will come up. After all, it has got to be easy to beat Android, right? :-)

@kiwu@twtxt.net Sorry, I have two functional brain cells left in my brain, and I’m not sure if you’re asking What am I putting in it, as in a) when making some? Or as in b) when consuming/serving it?

a) 1L milk (0.5L cold + 0.5L warm @ ~45 °C), a bit of store bought yogourt for the bacteria, sugar and vanilla extract.
b) Most of the time, as is. But I’ve tried once: adding in a couple of diced strawberries that have been sitting in granulated sugar for a couple of minutes, until they’d released enough syrup, and I think I might’ve caught a new addiction on top of the original one.

What do you put in yours?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nope, sorry. 😞

@prologic@twtxt.net Sorry if I raised the wrong hope. Only the German talk is about the “why good people don’t want to work at your company” subject. Among the key points are the absolutely terrible job adverts, team leads not themselves looking for people to hire but letting other dudes do that, company cultures and communication.

@bender@twtxt.net Bahahaha sorry 🤣

@pluralistic@pluralistic summing up my thoughts on where the current #DigitalSovereignty conversation is leading us towards:

I’m sorry. I know that when we talk about “digital sovereignty,” we’re obliged to talk about how we can build more data-centres that we can fill up with money-losing chips from American silicon monopolists in the hopes of destroying as many jobs as possible while blowing through our clean energy goals and enshittifying as much of our potable water as possible.

I don’t have any advice for how to do that. I’m sorry!

• Neal Stephenson’s “Polostan” is the last of these books, and the book worth mentioning but not necessarily a recommendation. If you know me well enough, you know that I think Neal Stephenson is the best writer of all times (prove me wrong). And I’m sorry to say, this - while a five stars book - is not Stephenson at its best: in fact, it was his first book ever where at a certain point I felt the book wasn’t probably edited (probably rushed in). This is the first of a series, and it almost feels like just the first part of what should be the first book, it is almost as if he rushed publishing it to appease the editorial gods or something. Now, don’t take this criticism as a sign that Polostan isn’t a book worth reading, not at all. But if you didn’t read all the rest he wrote, do that first, and give Polostan some time… because I’m sure it will best read if you have its sequel ready to be picked up once you finish this one.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Sorry, I meant the builtin module:

$ python3 -m pep8 file.py
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pep8.py:2123: UserWarning: 

pep8 has been renamed to pycodestyle (GitHub issue #466)
Use of the pep8 tool will be removed in a future release.
Please install and use `pycodestyle` instead.

  $ pip install pycodestyle
  $ pycodestyle ...

I can’t seem to remember the name pycodestyle for the life of me. Maybe that’s why I almost never use it.

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, I’ve had even requested access to it in order to give it a try and report whatever I can but, Sorry I never got to do any of it. 2025 slam dunked a massive pile of 💩 over my life (hence the disappearance, trying to avoid talking about any of it) and I’m just starting to recover (or at least trying to).

@movq@www.uninformativ.de sorry dude I think we’re getting our language confused. I think I actually meant private Internet connections.

@bender@twtxt.net Better safe than sorry, I guess. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net nothing to be sorry about. It gave me time to watch TV with kids! 🤭

I am sorry folks 😞

… and now I just read @bender@twtxt.net’s other post that said the Gemini text was a shortened version, so I might have criticized things that weren’t true for the full version. Okay, sorry, I’m out. (And I won’t play that game, either. Don’t send me another AI output, possibly tweaked to address my criticism. That is besides the point and not worth my time.)

“This is not a Chinese bus problem. It is a problem for all types of vehicles and devices with Chinese electronics built in.”, says in the article.

Sorry but no. The truth is that “This is not an all types of vehicles and devices with Chinese electronics built in problem. It is a problem for all types of remotely accessible vehicles.”

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org believe it or not, I imagined the whole thing in my head, and kind of ROFLMAO. I am sure it was much, much less funny in real life. So, sorry! :-P

@bender@twtxt.net Oh! It’s all good, I was planning on retiring my TheLounge instance anyways and will stick to connecting directly for the occasional chat when needed. Cheers! (Sorry for the belated reply.)

Turned out I didn’t make it, sorry. Maybe next time. I hope you had a great yarn, @prologic@twtxt.net and @bender@twtxt.net, and didn’t waste any time waiting for me.

Lexical differential highlighting instead of syntax highlighting

Sieht ganz so aus, als hätte die gute @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz ihre Büchse mit in den Kurort Bad Gateway genommen.

Sorry, this pun only works in German, where “Bad” means spa and is used as prefix for spa towns.

It still needs some cleaning (and some slight UX improvements), but overall, I’m happy with it.

BTW - I promise, I intended it to be pronounced like “TweetStream” (or as written, “TwtStrm”), rather than “TweetStorm”. Sorry again. 😊

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks, I think I fixed it now. Sorry for the spam.

@zvava@twtxt.net Going to have to hard disagree here I’m sorry. a) no-one reads the raw/plain twtxt.txt files, the only time you do is to debug something, or have a stick beak at the comments which most clients will strip out and ignore and b) I’m sorry you’ve completely lost me! I’m old enough to pre-date before Linux became popular, so I’m not sure what UNIX principles you think are being broken or violated by having a Twt Subject (Subject) whose contents is a cryptographic content-addressable hash of the “thing”™ you’re replying to and forming a chain of other replies (a thread).

I’m sorry, but the simplest thing to do is to make the smallest number of changes to the Spec as possible and all agree on a “Magic Date” for which our clients use the modified function(s).

@alexonit@twtxt.alessandrocutolo.it Holy fuck! 🤣 I just realized how bad my typing was in my reply before 🤣 🤦‍♂️ So sorry about that haha 😆 I blame the stupid iPhone on-screen keyboard ⌨️

Apologies if I’ve been spamming anyone out there in twtxt-land today.

I’ve been working on a couple of twtxt-related projects, and one of them is a reader (tentatively called twtstrm) written in JS. I used dummy data for the first few stages of development, but now I’m at the point where I need some real data, and that meant hitting up my actual following list.

Of course, it didn’t help that I had a typo in my If-Modified-Since headers, but all that has since been resolved.

Anyways, if I accidentally spammed you with requests today, I am sorry, and it shouldn’t happen anymore.

We thank you for your patience, and apologize for the inconvenience.

@zvava@twtxt.net oh duh! Sorry, I promised I read, my brain just didn’t process it right. I shall follow your progress, and offer bits and pieces of unrequested trivialities. :-)

@dce@hashnix.club Yeah, I’ve read about that approach. Sounds clever. Truth is, I’m too tired. 😢 I don’t want to spend too much of my time fighting assholes.

I’ve now started blocking entire cloud hosters. Sorry, not sorry.

Migration is done \o/ So, Sorry for the noise in your rss reader. To forgive me, tonight, let’s headbang \m/ \m/

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @movq@www.uninformativ.de Sorry, I neither finished it nor in time. :-( That’s as good as it’s gonna get for the moment: https://git.isobeef.org/lyse/gelbariab/-/tree/master/rss-proxys?ref_type=heads

The README should hopefully provide a crude introduction. The example configuration file is documented fairly well, I believe (but maybe not). You probably still have to consult and maybe also modify the source code to fit your needs.

Let me know if you run into issues, have questions, wishes etc.

@bender@twtxt.net I think it’s actually a new XEP proposal ( https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0084.html#proto-info ), but it’s still a bit unclear. Sorry for the late and vague response, I’m still trying to test it and see what it’s even about, didn’t yet find a server, that supports it.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de According to this screenshot, KDE still shows good old application icons:

And GNOME used to have them, too:

I like the looks of your window manager. That’s using Wayland, right? The only thing on this screenshot to critique is all that wasted space of the windows not making use of the full screen!!!1 At least the file browser. 8-)

This drives me nuts when my workmates share their screens. I really don’t get it how people can work like that. You can’t even read the whole line in the IDE or log viewer with all the expanded side bars. And then there’s 200 pixels on the left and another 300 pixels on the right where the desktop wallpaper shows. Gnaa! There’s the other extreme end when somebody shares their ultra wide screen and I just have a “regularish” 16:10 monitor and don’t see shit, because it’s resized way too tiny to fit my width. Good times. :-D

Sorry for going off on a tangent here. :-) Back to your WM: It has the right mix of being subtle and still similar to motif. Probably close to the older Windowses. My memory doesn’t serve me well, but I think they actually got it fairly good in my opinion. Your purple active window title looks killer. It just fits so well. This brown one (

Jean-Raymond Abrial, father (in particular!) of the Z notation, but also of the B method, and then Event-B, passed away on May 26.
