🕟 Hi, the current time is about a quarter till eleven in the morning 🌄.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de LMFAO

@kiwu@twtxt.net awww you got this kiwu <3

@jost@jost.sdfeu.org welcome!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz the culprit was, as always, a typo’d dd command

hey yall i accidentally nuked my main hard drive for the second time ever yesterday. spent the rest of the day setting up my PC again. thankfully i didn’t lose anything super crucial, i have most of that on another drive

@jost@jost.sdfeu.org Hey 👋

My next try with twtxt - because it’s the closest to my idea of microblogging.

@kiwu@twtxt.net Congrats 🥳

@movq@www.uninformativ.de 🤣 LMAO! this one caught me off guard, I wasn’t expecting THIS

Spiders are the only web developers that enjoy finding bugs.

#GitHub is becoming unusable! Images on discussions no longer load for me most of the time, posts keep loading infinitely and it breaks the reply feature… I’m really pissed by this. Is it just me? Does it think I’m a bloody AI scraper bot or something? What the hell.

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Yeah, it’s really the last thing we need. I’d love to see X11 getting more attention – but not like this …

In case you were blissfully unaware: https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/unix/XLibreIsExplicitlyPolitical

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org you will have to agree, though, that Yarn has contributed to make it possible to mass adopt (with its many glitches, bugs, and all) because, still, the web is king.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yeah, I think something glitched at my end for a brief moment. It does it just fine.

you know i can never get into boy groups but i have liked EXO’s obsession since it came out. that “i want you” sample is just too good man https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxmP4b2a0uY

@bender@twtxt.net This should be a core feature, no configuration required. 🤔

Oh, holy crap, it just did it now! 🤯

How do you get your man pages to hyphenate? Mine doesn’t do it.

Ok fedimigues contem-me lá como é o vosso setup de RSS

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz On the one hand, all these programs have a very long history and the technology behind manpages is actually very powerful – you can use it to write books:

https://www.troff.org/pubs.html

I have two books from that list, for example “The UNIX programming environment”:

https://movq.de/v/c3dab75c97/upe.jpg

It’s a bit older, of course, but it looks and feels like a normal book, and it uses the same tech as manpages – which I think is really cool. 😎

It’s comparable to LaTeX (just harder/different to use) but much faster than LaTeX. You can also do stuff like render manpages as a PDF (man -Tpdf cp >cp.pdf) or as an HTML file (man -Thtml cp >cp.html). I think I once made slides for a talk this way.

On the other hand, traditional manpages (i.e., ones that are not written in mandoc) do not use semantic markup. They literally say, “this text is bold, that text over here is italics”, and so on.

So when you run man foo, it has no other choice but to show it in black, white, bold, underline – showing it in color would be wrong, because that’s not what the source code of that manpage says.

Colorizing them is a hack, to be honest. You’re not meant to do this. (The devs actually broke this by accident recently. They themselves aren’t really aware that people use colors.)

If mandoc and semantic markup was more commonly used, I think it would be easier to convince the devs to add proper customizable colors.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Any time 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net THANK YOU SO MUCH OMG!!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Here’s the full config I use.

i love the feeling i get after i take my meds. i feel normal for once

having fun with omg.lol lately

@prologic@twtxt.net haha yeah for the youtube rules i just copied the first JSON block in your screenshot (i typed it out) and it miraculously worked! yayyy

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Cool! 😎 Yeah I’ll add that soon™

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh sweet! I was gonna say, setting up those rules is a bit “complicated” 🤣 But I’m glad you worked it out! 👌

ok i really like XLOV. 1&Only is a great song. so vibe-y and sensual. and they released it in pride month too they Get It https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBZgirj_C2Y

YAYYY TY @prologic@twtxt.net NOW I HAVE IMAGE & YOUTUBE EMBEDS ON MY YARN POD 🎉🎉🎉

@prologic@twtxt.net AHA the .* entry did the trick! i originally had these rules in there, they were added by default except for the youtube rules:

imgur\.com
giphy\.com
imgs\.xkcd\.com
reactiongifs\.com
githubusercontent\.com
youtube\.com
yt.\be

also oooh the missing feature sounds very handy!

Hello @jassim@twtxt.net 👋

There is a missing feature I’ve been intending to add to though, which is that any link that looks like a URL that might be an image, for example, ends with .png or .jpg or whatever, we should just render that as an image and not expect users to wrap it in Markdown image links ![](...)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ahh what do you mean by images don’t embed? They definitely should! By default however all domains are blocked, so you might want to either allow some domains or just put in a .* entry to allow all/any domsins. Screenshot attached

psst i’ll be at my local event for HTML day!!! i’m very excited but very nervous, i don’t even know what i’ll be working on! but i’ll figure it out…

i wanna work on my fanlisting PHP app but i feel so blocked on it

on my yarn pod nothing really embeds (not even images) so i’m looking at the embed rules part of the mod settings and i’m like… i don’t know how to do any of this 😭😭😭

@movq@www.uninformativ.de WHATTTTT WHY DO THEY MAKE THIS SO HARD

@arne@uplegger.eu lol 😅

(Just for fun, SuSE Linux 6.4 from ~25 years ago: https://movq.de/v/dc62d0256c/s.png )

@arne@uplegger.eu LOl that’s hilarious 😂

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Colorized manpages have been a thing for a very long time:

https://movq.de/v/81219d7f7a/s.png

Problem is, hardly anybody knows this, because you configure this by … drumroll … overwriting TERMCAP entries of less in your ~/.bashrc:

export LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\e[38;5;3m'      # Bold
    export LESS_TERMCAP_me=$'\e[0m'           # End Bold
export LESS_TERMCAP_us=$'\e[4;38;5;6m'    # Underline
    export LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$'\e[0m'           # End Underline
export GROFF_NO_SGR=1                     # Needed since groff 1.23

how do i serve cunt like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=prR9miCSDlg

XLOV are a really cool k-pop group. i just adore the concept of “gender is a fuck and we are going to do whatever we want” like that’s ballsy and epic and the members 100% sell it

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org we NEED syntax highlighting in our man pages!!!! (FWIW i think bat can do that lol)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org BLUE DA BA DI BA DI DAAAA hahah iconic!!! ladida is suchhh a good song i was so obsessed with it when it came out in 2020

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org perfectly fine, don’t worry about it!!! this looks really cool TY for sharing it :D

#GitHub #GitHubPages #fail This is driving me mad…

Images randomly deciding not to load on all my pages.

Is it just me? Is it my browser’s fault? Is it just in Brazil?

I was working on this #shapely + #trimesh page… and I can only see the last image (the animated gif)!

https://abav.lugaralgum.com/material-aulas/Processing-Python-py5/shapely-e-trimesh.html

Update: On this exact page I have bungled the image URLs (I blame Marktext for being stupid and not using a relative reference). But I swear loading problems have been going on other well formed pages.

@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.

Hahaha, I first thought of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zA52uNzx7Y4 when I read @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz’s “lyrics”. ;-)

Doesn’t sound bad, I like it. The synth reminded me of some song by Beast in Black.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I also wondered for a very long time why nobody improved the man experience in the terminal. I’d love to see links and more colors.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz anyway here’s me!

i signed up for omg.lol and i’m really liking it. such a cozy and fun little community with a suite of fun web things. i wish the financial barrier to entry was a bit lower though (maybe like $5 for a few months on it or something) just so i could recommend it to my broke friends more, but i totally get why it’s priced the way it is (solo dev!!!)

@kiwu@twtxt.net hell yes!!!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de it’s so scary save urself

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yeah man pages are good but these days i kinda prefer tldr and especially cheat.sh

@kiwu@twtxt.net i remember when this shit came out godddd it was electric

Speaking of manpages:

“Man pages are great, man readers are the problem”

https://whynothugo.nl/journal/2025/04/09/man-pages-are-great-man-readers-are-the-problem/

mandoc is nicer to read/write than the man macro package and, most importantly, it’s semantic markup.

HTML output is a bit broken in GNU groff, though (OpenBSD on the left, GNU on the right):

https://movq.de/v/f1898e648f/s.png

🤔

Still, I’m inclined to convert my manpages to mandoc.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I still haven’t tried it. 🤐 Some day, perhaps …

@kiwu@twtxt.net Hello. 😅

la di da da di da da di da da di daaaaa https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jeI992mvlEY

guys. nixOS is the devil

@thecanine@twtxt.net image is so real lol literally me

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org YEAH THEY ARE SOOO GOOD SINGING TOGETHER!!! it’s kind of their label (hello project)’s thing :]

@kiwu@twtxt.net somehow never got into this one, i gotta change that

Weil mir copyparty gerade ständig begegnet. Nun auch hier. Der Dateiserver für überall.

Why is it that I hate packing so badly? I gotta have to brace myself up to start that now.

The outlook is poor, rain all the way until maybe the last day of summer camp. Definitely bringing my gummies, they are well needed, the weather report announces several days with up to 14 liters per square meter.

Welcome to the club, @kiwu@twtxt.net!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ta, very catchy indeed! :-) Their polyphony is great.

I just emerged from a really long, really tiring cruch. I am alive!

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Yeah, it’s all about simplicity. That’s what got me hooked. In its original form without the extensions, you can even read the raw feed and it doesn’t feel all that bad.

@kiwu@twtxt.net Hi!!!!!!!!! 😆 Welxome! 🙇‍♀️

So 429: Too Many Requests on my GitHub hosted images, breaking my tutorials etc… Not good!

July will be gone and my escape to Codeberg.org has not even started (I have to finish my PhD…)

My website has 0 depreciated tags now and all identical IDs, were merged into a single class. This also improves, how the text on top of the page, is aligned on mobile.

@kiwu@twtxt.net LETS GOOOOOOOOO BANGER

@kiwu@twtxt.net hahahah it’s ok! just give it some time :)

@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.

EVERYONE SAY HI TO @kiwu@twtxt.net SHE’S MY LONGTIME BESTIE AND SUPER SWEET AND ALSO LOVES IDOLS LIKE ME :DDDD

i love my friends :‘))))

@kiwu@twtxt.net HIIIIIIIIIIIII

@twtxt.net@twtxt.net HI KIWU YOUR PROFILE’S A BIT BUGGED ON OUR END BUT IT’S OK IT’LL FIX ITSELF

In 1996, they came up with the X11 “SECURITY” extension:

https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/4w548u/what_is_up_with_the_x11_security_extension/

This is what could have (eventually) solved the security issues that we’re currently seeing with X11. Those issues are cited as one of the reasons for switching to Wayland.

That extension never took off. The person on reddit wonders why – I think it’s simple: Containers and sandboxes weren’t a thing in 1996. It hardly mattered if X11 was “insecure”. If you could run an X11 client, you probably already had access to the machine and could just do all kinds of other nasty things.

Today, sandboxing is a thing. Today, this matters.

I’ve heard so many times that “X11 is beyond fixable, it’s hopeless.” I don’t believe that. I believe that these problems are solveable with X11 and some devs have said “yeah, we could have kept working on it”. It’s that people don’t want to do it:

Why not extend the X server?

Because for the first time we have a realistic chance of not having to do that.

https://wayland.freedesktop.org/faq.html

I’m not in a position to judge the devs. Maybe the X.Org code really is so bad that you want to run away, screaming in horror. I don’t know.

But all this was a choice. I don’t buy the argument that we never would have gotten rid of things like core fonts.

All the toolkits and programs had to be ported to Wayland. A huge, still unfinished effort. If that was an acceptable thing to do, then it would have been acceptable to make an “X12” that keeps all the good things about X11, remains compatible where feasible, eliminates the problems, and requires some clients to be adjusted. (You could have still made “X11X12” like “XWayland” for actual legacy programs.)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org check out their song zenbu kakete go!! it’s very sleek and smooth and just so vibe-y!!! also this live performance has an EPIC intro featuring ichika (violin girl) plus one of the members beatboxing and two girls (including my all time favorite idol, dambara ruru!) on vocals! it’s so good

This is your friendly reminder that you could be making #PaperObjects with #Python and #py5, you know?

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I REPLIED TO THIS AND NOW IT’S NOT SHOWING WTFFFF anyway what i said was that i have some fun stuff in the daily note template already like ASCII weather forecast from wttr AND a jenny holzer quote from fortune!!! i should add more fun stuff!!!

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz it’s been chill!

Chamada aberta pro encontro brasileiro de programação criativa - Compoética 2025 … https://compoetica.github.io/links/

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Thank you! I have to check out more of their stuff.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Holy cow! O_o

Reducing the overall screen time is desireable, that’s right. I should do the same.

I wasn’t really aware until recently that programs can’t choose their own window’s position on Wayland. This is very weird to me, because this was not an issue on X11 to begin with: X11 programs can request a certain position and size, but the X11 WM ultimately decides if that request is being honored or not. And users can configure that.

But apparently, this whole thing is a heated debate in the Wayland world. 🤔
