No he jugado tanto el Pokemon TCG, más que en Game Boy y ahora en teléfono.

Es un juego que, al menos en la primera parte, está muy bien hecho, aunque al poco tiempo se acaba el factor ‘wow’.

Como vemos en ‘Leyendas y Videojuegos’, el juego móvil es más una demostración para una experiencia de como sería que colecciones las cartas

Siento que mucha gente va a interesarse en coleccionarlas gracias a este ‘demo’.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de The view in these is pretty gorgeous as well!! 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net Heck yeah, gorgeous! Did you hike up there?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Uuuh, nice! Despite the weather service claiming that it is snowing at this very moment, there is absolutely nothing here.

It just worked fine like nothing had ever happened when I booted my laptop this morning.

Getting my knowledge refreshed on web accessibility through a course on deque university.

I have been on Twtxt for five years straight now. Hurray me.

@prologic@twtxt.net which models do you prefer, and what made you prefer them?

@prologic@twtxt.net believe it or not, those green leaves and vines are eatable! Nice view, mate. Love the skies and mountains at the horizon!

My 7-year old invented the word guakilijion which is a 1 with a bazillion zeroes following after it. He wants to be a word inventor.

Was on the receiving end of multiple robocalls originating from the UK so now I blocked the whole of the UK from being able to call me on my phone.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de tried translating that and it said Art lover/enthusiast, that could be correct since that despise of the artificial stems out of “Love for the Actual real Art” although that’s a subjective statement in itself; xD duckduckgo’s translation thing spat out “künstliche-Kunsthasser”

/me wantis to learn german so bad!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de IMO, I believe it is all in the quality of the client (mobile, and web). Also, you don’t have to hunt/pick for “instances”, which arguably presents less friction.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de ; \m/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de :-D

Thank you, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! Luckily, I can disable it. I also tried it, no luck, though. But the problem is, I don’t really know how much snakeoil actually runs on my machine. There is definitely a ClownStrike infestation, I stopped the falcon sensor. But there might be even more, I’ve no idea. From the vague answers I got last time, it feels like even the UHD/IT guys don’t know what is in use. O_o

Yeah, it is definitely something on my laptop that rejects connections to IPv4 ports 80 and 443. All other devices here can access the stuff without issue, only this work machine is unable to. The “Connection refused” happens within a few milliseconds.

Unfortunately, I do not have the slightest idea how it works. But maybe I can look into that tomorrow. Kernel modules are a very good hint, thank you! <3

You’re right, it might be some sort of fail-safe mechanism. But then, why just block IPv4 and not also IPv6? But maybe because the VPN and company servers require IPv4, there is zero IPv6 support. (Yeah, don’t ask, I don’t understand it either.)

Haha, I never ran across this before: http://www.wtfpl.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/wtfpl-strip.jpg

LOOOOL, great programming tutorial music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yup8gIXxWDU

@skinshafi@thunix.net Ah nice, it indeed fixed it. I don’t get the warning anymore. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Congrats! :-) I still have to survive work next week.

Fuck me dead, what a giant piece of shit. On my Linux work laptop I have the problem that some unknown snakeoil “security” junk is dropping any IPv4 connections to ports 80 and 443. All other ports and IPv6 seem unaffected. I get an immediate “connection refused” when trying to estabslish a connection.

I had this problem four weeks ago on Friday morning the very first time at home. On Thursday evening, everything was perfectly fine. Eventually, I plugged in the LAN cable in the office and everything got automatically fixed. Nobody can explain what’s happening.

Then, last week Friday morning out of the blue, the same issue was back. So, I went to the office yesterday and it got fixed again by plugging in the network cable. This evening, I have exactly the same bloody problem again.

What the hell is going on? Does anyone have any ideas? I’m certainly not an expert, but I don’t see anything suspicious in iptables or nft rules. I also do not see anything showing up in /var/log/kern.log. Even tried to stop firewalld, flush the iptables and nft rules, but that didn’t result in any changes.

@david@collantes.us my replay stayed pinned to the bottom of neomutt like an eye soar, I had to delete the OP. xD I still don’t know how to archive stuff in (neo)mutt.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de hahahahahaha! I will try to incorporate that one when I complain about AI imagery. Like, “Stop fucking using that AI shit, mon, I am an Kunstliebhaber!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com as you can see, not much. Things continue to work fine (my fake one is cached on Neomutt). :-)

If there a name for those of us who dislike AI generated imagery, or for the dislike of AI generated imagery in general? A composite German word would do! :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net got to say, after visiting castles, shrines, and similarly antique places in Japan… no comparison. :-) Wife agrees.

@prologic@twtxt.net because of his decision to declare martial law (which attempted to ban political activity and censor the media), seemingly out of the blue.

@skinshafi@thunix.net it is limited use, for now. I read somewhere (can’t remember now where) that efforts were being made to make it to function across all Tildes, but it hasn’t gotten too far, so it seems.

@prologic@twtxt.net the South Korean president is facing impeachment. The president declared martial law to protect the country from North Korea and eliminate anti-state elements. However, the declaration was seen as a response to domestic pressure and scandals. MPs blocked the declaration and forced the president to reverse his decision. The president’s defense minister resigned and the president is now facing impeachment proceedings.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com ah, yes! The thing is, I have too many broken pieces already. 🤭

@bender@twtxt.net there’s Pub too but is still experimental I think …

Warning: pub is still in development, if it breaks, you can keep the pieces.

@skinshafi@thunix.net You might want to consider adding basic caching support:

… returned 200 but no Last-Modified header - can’t cache content

@prologic@twtxt.net is zs a web server? I see on the source of the page that is simply posting to /cgi-bin/hello, and some JavaScript to get the value of that post, from the same CGI.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Mastodon offers the “deluxe” experience, but it is a resource hungry beast, that can also be feeble as hell. I miss it, a lot, but am running GoToSocial instead because of its simplicity, and nimbleness.

@prologic@twtxt.net You know what! let me get back to you on that–I’ve never never tried to do CGI scripting before and have zero knowledge about it.

/Me adding a new entry in a #Todo list.

@mckinley@twtxt.net To help saving the planet is a good reason. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Brilliant! How can I join?

Because, you know, the more the merrier! :-D

@prologic@twtxt.net I prefer:

Coalition for

Truth and
Solutions

@skinshafi@thunix.net awesome!

Upd: it should show 500 because fpm daemon is broke but i didnt setup reverse_proxy for php

@prologic@twtxt.net interesting indeed.

Worth noting that this is a local “forum”. BBJ uses an SQLite database.

@prologic@twtxt.net there is a bit more here: https://github.com/Calamitous/iris/blob/master/README.md#technical-bits. Of course, you could take a peek at the .rb file itself: https://github.com/Calamitous/iris/blob/master/iris.rb :-P

@skinshafi@thunix.net If you liked that, wait till you find BBJ.

@prologic@twtxt.net it is an hack and slash ARPG game from Grinding Gears Games. It runs on Windows (and will run on macOS too, eventually), and game consoles (Xbox, and PlayStation).

It comes out on “early access” in 6 December 2024.

Fun fact: php are broken on my pubnix xD https://doesnm.p.psf.lt/info.php

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve seen plenty but I doubt you could use any (other than PHP) to actually serve your pages, anything you want to serve, you put in a ~/public_xyz folder (your php files go there too for Apache to serve), no config files/server setting.

But don’t take my word for it, I just got there and still yet to meet people and learn a bit of IT wizardry from them ;)

@prologic@twtxt.net Twtxt wise, it was kind of disparate at first xD with no access to logs as you may have read on the alt-feed itself. But then, @sorenpeter@darch.dk’s script came to the rescue … like, just in time 😁 Otherwise, everything else is fun as publicised, exploring and learning along the way.

@prologic@twtxt.net There’s always my log.html page if it helps… and while we’re still at it here’s the other twt #z2ymlkq for reference ;)

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah! If you remember I was curious about how people managed their stuff hosted on a Pubnix (this thread -> #z2ymlkq ) and I’ve just managed to join one …

@skinshafi@thunix.net That’s me by the way! just in case you’ve missed this one … (#44kqz4q) 😅

@hey@thunix.net hi.

Anyone around is thinking, or planning, to play “Path of the Exile II”?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Haha, the dark background would have been printed before I added the media query. It’s unlikely that anyone will want to print one of my posts, but I figure it’s worth the extra line to conserve ink if someone does.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de if it’s just notifications that are bothering you could just go to your /settings/preferences/notifications and uncheck as much boxes as you need … unless you’ve already done that, then… sorry, not sorry we love your posts my friend!! xD And just so you know, you put a smile on my face whenever I stumble upon any of your retro-computing posts! 😁

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I freaking love this one!! It feels squeaky clean! Definitely using it for my sm0lweb stuff. Thank you for sharing 🙏

@bender@twtxt.net That’s the plan! 3;)

@prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Nothing to see, move on. Totally safe, no danger to the public. Yikes!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com if any of my twtxts are fed into a LLM, that would be some dumb one, for sure! LOL.

@prologic@twtxt.net I bet our twts are already being fed to circuit monsters… Remember the other day when I’d snapped out about some nonsense, being an A-Hole and what not? I’ve seen an AI company employee lurking around with not much interaction (if I’m not mistaken), so my mind went on auto-pilot mode thinking “This !#@%$ must be feeding us to the circuit peggy monster!! Arrr 😤” 🤣🤣🤣 but then again, one shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover (or an employee by his title) right?

@prologic@twtxt.net there are much, much worse, no sarcasm! :-D

@prologic@twtxt.net oh, and that pole is “clean”! :‘-D

@prologic@twtxt.net hahahahaha! You saw, pretty much, South East Asia now, in a nutshell. :-P

Scammers and impersonators are everywhere. Even in small communities like ours!

@prologic@twtxt.net you have got to walk more! Have you been to the mountain carved temples? Have you meandered into town, and fought the daily traffic? :-) Dew it!

@prologic@twtxt.net How so? I read the article but didn’t get who’s embracing and extending what to extinguish it…

[Update!] My request to join in has finally gotten accepted over on thunix.net like, two days ago! And now, my alter ego @skinshafi@thunix.net can have a Twtxt feed of its own x)

Beautiful shot @movq@www.uninformativ.de 🤩 … I’ve always had a hard time taking pictures in a foggy atmosphere, it never looks as dense as it does IRL. Any tips? 🥹

Yes it work: 2024-12-01T19:38:35Z twtxt/1.2.3 (+https://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt; @eapl) :D

The .log is just a simple append each request. The idea with the .cvs is to have it tally up how many request there have been from each client as a way to avoid having the log file grow too big. And that you can open the .cvs as a spreadsheet and have an easy overview and filtering options.

Access to those files are closed to the public.

did it work? I tried loading the file from /twtxt.txt, /twtAgent.php and /twtAgent2.php

Also reading the code, I see it creates two files, but I’m not sure which you are using now:
http://darch.dk/twtAgent.log <- 403 Forbidden
and
http://darch.dk/twtAgent.csv <- Not found here

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh man, this is beautiful! We had sunshine all day long. But it was cold, too. When I left the house in the late afternoon, the sun was creating this magical red light. I just hit the right time, all the autumn colors popped out like crazy when I walked down the street. Didn’t bring my camera, though.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de nice pic, I like the monochromatic colour, and its minimalism!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de you can edit, and/or delete on Mastodon. Depending on the client, you could also post in batches. There is a solution. :-)

My twtAgent.php was turned off, so try again now. I have uploaded the code to: https://github.com/sorenpeter/twtAgent

I sent a few local tests, could you help me check if you see https://eapl.mx/twtxt.txt in your log file?

If you want more eyes on the agent, you can tell tell me, as I was thinking on something similar to catch those ‘following requests’.

What was it suppose to look like? a <detail><summary>-tag maybe?

@eapl.mx@eapl.mx Yes, the idea is to add User Agent support to #Timeline.
Right now it just adds every request to a growing log file, but I have also been working on a way to analyse it, so it only saves the time of the latest request.
I’m not sure how to make it part of timeline itself, since it requeses that you redirect/rewrite from twtAgent.php to the acctual twtxt.txt
Help with making Timeline send proper User Agents to others would be much appreciated:)

Have fun, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! :-) But I’m out.

@xuu That’s cool, I read chapter one and will continue.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Ah, so you inspired people with something absolutely new to them. That’s cool. :-)

BTW, researching on that I found that @prologic was working on the following https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/useragent#supported-user-agent-formats

I wasn’t aware of a few User-Agent Formats.

And I’m checking that timeline is not sending those headers. I should push a change on that soon.

@sorenpeter@darch.dk hey!
I’m watching that now your .txt is pointing to https://darch.dk/twtAgent.php

What are you trying? Catching the Headers as in https://twtxt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/discoverability.html ? (I think it’s a clever idea BTW)
And is it something you plan to add to timeline?

I believe the Australian social media ban for kids is an extremely limiting way of regulating human interaction.

When people are harmed in traffic, we do not ban roads. We build better roads, and introduce speed limits. But in Australia they are now removing all access to social media for children under 16 years of age.

It would be much more constructive to have skilled experts define what a safe social media environment for kids looks like, and implement that environment instead.

@prologic@twtxt.net stick to macOS. 😜

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org One person had came access it before, but no tried it

@prologic@twtxt.net Just that people thought twtxt sounded cool and maybe want to set it up themself

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Cool! Just curious, did you run into somebody who already heard of twtxt before? Or maybe even tried it.
