In-reply-to » Anyone had any intereractions with @cuaxolotl yet? Or are they using a client that doesn't know how to detect clients following them properly? Hmmm 🧐

@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de my setup is pretty old-school tw.txt hosting-wise. just a text file and a very simple static bridge for pikkulog-style subscribers on gemini. i do try to keep up on the twtxt format spec so i’m publishing a modern and well-formed feed. my dual-hosted website/gemcapsule is meant to eventually be entirely bespoke (my friend wrote the gemini server i’m using, so that counts enough for now) and i’d like to eventually support some of the server extensions that yarn has piloted. follow-wise, rn i kinda just manually try to pick up on who is following me by browsing random feeds. my custom clients usually do a FoaF crawl, but i don’t have anything that really works running rn.

In-reply-to » @prologic There’s another thing to consider: I have a feeling that (some/most/many?) Gopher/Gemini users wouldn’t even want that. I’ve heard them say a couple of times: “If you follow me, just drop me an e-mail.” 🤔 I don’t know if this is a widespread opinion or not, but I do feel the need to first gather some feedback from them, before we start drafting a spec. 😅

Good points 🙇‍♂️

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah your original idea of precent encoding some information about the new follower is probably what we need to think about more. I think it’ll also work for Gopher/Gemini folk too right? So essentially new metadata key (optional) with some spec for encoding information about the new follower if either a) You don’t implement the User-Agent part of the spec or extensions or b)You use a protocol that makes this impossible.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com thank you! Having seeing Google’s Play, of whatever name they call their App Store these days, which is a mess, makes me very wary about using a third party one.

Back to the original topic, I use an iPhone. I am one of those who is perfectly fine with the Apple App Store. 😊

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net IMO the problem isn’t “Apple”™ the company, per se, it’s the complexity and size of the organization. It’s large, it’s complex, you will have large sets of “people” that follow the “rules” as written without any leeway whatsoever or ability to apply “intent”.

I can't wait to see if our chooks like the wheat we are growing. they don't like the wheat from the produce store, comes with NPK Ca and Mg, that's about it I reckon. Farmers do not add 60 minerals to their paddocks any more, too expensive to do so.

Notice the taro and beetroot plants growing. All in 100% pure cow manure, free from the Council, but costs me $60 per 4m3 of manure in the big trailer (petrol cost). You place the seeds into the grassy pooh and let the seedlings grow, no digging, and no weeds either. If you have a problem with weeds put plastic on the ground add you metal side frames on this and fill your metal box with 100% cow manure, free from most places.

Or use horse manure and sawdust, also free from horse racing places.

Another yard fenced off, this time the pumpkin patch…. seedlings growing OK from seeds left in the ground over the last season. Permaculture is about growing things naturally from seeds already in the ground.

Many a food forest idea easy and less work. I dump new cow manure into the yard and let the seedling pumpkins grow through this in the spring. No planting necessary. Will place our more Dolomite this year, as the pumpkins were bland and no sweet enough. Our soil needs lots of Calcium.

In-reply-to » This tool, using age is pretty neat: https://github.com/ndavd/agevault. So simple, yet seemingly powerful!

@mckinley@twtxt.net agevault uses age, allegedly very secure (aiming to replace pgp/gpg). Comparing it with gocryptfs, from the user perspective, agevault seems simpler, though CLI exclusive. As the repository states, “Like age, it features no config options, allowing for a straightforward secure flow”. It would also run in all major OS platforms out of the box.

But agevault is also very new. Though age has been around for a while now, I don’t see an “audited” link (neither on agevault, nor age).

In-reply-to » Falling satellite will give clues to how objects burn up on re-entry A chance to observe the high-speed re-entry of a falling satellite will give researchers important insights on how debris burns up in our atmosphere ⌘ Read more

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci their main question is worrisome:

“The main question is, does it disappear during this re-entry?” says Löhle. “Is everything evaporating, or are there pieces that eventually impact on the ground?”

He expects some parts, such as the satellite’s fuel tanks, to survive. “You could learn from the re-entry that if you build a fuel tank differently, it can break up,” he says.
