Thanks Bender for quoting the NIV version: Deuteronomy 20:13-14 New International Version (NIV)

Let me see this in the KJV: De 20:17 But thou shalt utterly destroy them; namely, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath commanded thee:

Ge 15:16 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.

It seems to me GOD gave these people groups over 400 years to repent of their evil ways. Even when Jericho was such a city, Rahab, a prostitute was saved along with her family because she had faith in God, the only one saved from destruction of Jericho (see Joshua chapter 2). Since God is grace and mercy as well as just and a judge over sins, is not GOD able to spare people in cities as He see fit? or even remove their probation of living?

Ps 7:14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity “aven” , and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.

If you study the Hebrew there is a Hebrew word called “aven” which refers to the epi-genetic potential that drives all our genetic expressions, and records all our propensities of ourselves and our parents. This epi-genetic potential kicks in when you are over puberty, and unless GOD drives out these propensities, you become as your parents before you, doing the same sinful habits as they did. After 400 years, is there any possibility of a child seeking God over his inherited potential from sinful parents before him? Rahab is one example, so God is able to save some, but others choose to be lost, because of their own doings. Hope this helps. Shalom

To be able to centralize all my social activities (If I had) in twtxt.txt.
For example I post a family picture in Facebook, a stupid meme in twitter, and I like 1 video on youtube (that I want to share), in some clicks :

2024-08-13T07:36:15Z Look how my puppies are growing
2024-08-14T07:36:15Z How hard can it be ? 🤣
2024-08-15T07:36:15Z Very interesting conf by Dave Cheney

But why?

something like :

• centralized export
  
• converting it to one model
  
• twtxt.txt it

I just want to test it. I am very curious about all those solutions. Can be good to centralize all my socials activity (ok I have none but … still) to create a twtxt out of it.

@bender@twtxt.net yeah, I think so as well. Hell I can’t even get myself to upload much media files on the fedi-platforms knowing they’ll be hosted out of someone else’s pocket, someone with no ROI in mind but other’s freedom of expression.

@bender@twtxt.net What multiplexer do you use? I usually use Tmux and have my prefix mapped to C-a on my local machine and the default C-b on the remote ones so they don’t conflict if it helps.

I fully support “small scale” and “slow” here. I think if you’re going to be successful at “self hosting” that’s kind of the design and architecture you need to go for IMO.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Me neither. I did a bit of research but couldn’t find anything. So if we created something, it’d have to be our own thing I think.

@prologic@twtxt.net I have no clue TBH

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Would there be any standard way of indicate this behavior at all that you’re aware of? Any special way of linking the image? Or something? Hmmm 🧐

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Ahh cool! Thank you 🙏 FWIW yarnd has a built-in feature similar to this too where an operator (what we call a poderator) has to “whitelist” domains that may serve images before it’ll render them inline at all (to prevent abuse).

@prologic@twtxt.net I wouldn’t mind that for the bigger images, although, my main problem is with the scrappers and other platforms that nuke my RPi whenever I post a link out there… yes! I mean Mastodon 😆

BTW! I’ve just white listed twtxt.net … you should be able to see the embedded image by now.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Ahh I see! Interesting 🧐 Would you prefer that clients like yarnd prefetch resources liks this, cache them and serve the cached copy? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net it’s a Clownflare option to prevent images on your website from being embedded on other websites. It helps with my low bandwidth resources. And I believe you can set-up similar rules with Nginx, I’m just too lazy to do it manually RN.

CF Docs on Hotlink Protection

@movq@www.uninformativ.de confirming that the issue isn’t present when using alacrity. Wow.

I just realized, this is the last Saturday of the month. So Yarn.social meetup is up again tomorrow. Same time as last time if anyone is interested/around to join and hang out!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com What does “hotlinking” even mean? What feature and web server has this? I’ve never heard of this before till now 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Alacritty.

@prologic@twtxt.net I think I have hotlinking disabled somewhere … I’ll try and fix it this evening.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Oh! 🤔 That’s really weird. Why does that error like that? 🤔

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com That screenshot you posted doesn’t load for me? Error 1011?

you’ll probably get an Error 1011 🤦 … just copy and paste the link in a new tab if you can Screenshot of neomutt running Jenny

@bender@twtxt.net My index formatting is intact, probably because I still haven’t figured out how to set up my terminal to show RTL text correctly! 😅 but hey, that won’t be a problem anymore, I don’t feel like twting in Arabic. Sorry for the inconvenience.

You are both silly, LOL, does not GOD empower those who seek Him with wisdom?

Many good people have this gift of wisdom, so learn to discern those who are wise and helpful in our lives.
By their fruits ye shall know them.

I remember one science person was in charge of doing “gain of function” research, creating GM organisms so viruses from other animals could infect humans. Why would a science person be interested in this? Why intentionally make viruses from other animals infect humans? But they did, and still do…. I would call this kind of science evil in the least, and the fact it was brought before the USA counsel suggests not all science people are doing good science. Wisdom is defined as the ability to know the difference between good and bad decisions. We learn this ability by getting into studies on topics. Start learning and stop being deceived.

@tkanos@twtxt.net Nope. What is it? Why do I want to use it? 🤔

Did someone already tested https://github.com/CEREBRUS-MAXIMUS/Surfer-Data ?

oh dang. i think thats the go path not the github path.. missing the branch name. here is the pkg one: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/quic-go/quic-go/http3

@bender@twtxt.net do you think we need to think about any new kind of visualization for these large yarn threads? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Haha that’s what u do 🤣 Can’t stand going to see doctors 🙄 (Sorry, I mean GPs)

@bender@twtxt.net No the domain is black listed from this pod at the moment.

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org @movq@www.uninformativ.de You actually only really want the missing root Twt. You could just fetch this from any Yarn pod. There are scripts I built way back when yo do this 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yes 🤣

On my blog: Real Life in Star Trek, Power Play https://john.colagioia.net/blog/2024/08/22/power-play.html #scifi #startrek #closereading

Yes I have personally taken this horse paste many times myself and can vouch for its wonderful affect on removing both cancer and parasites from your system.

The Internet is trying to bag this drug from the layperson, like all wonder drugs on the www. Medicine is a money making business, they do not want you to be made well. Vaccine injury is possible the biggest contributor to the business of making you ill, so than for the rest of your life you seek the doctor who treats your disease, rather than affect a cure, because most cures are too late. Its a great system, and people trust science too much these days, but as you can see not all science is bad, some people are doing a wonderful job. Shalom

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org the reason behind his sporadic disappearances is that he runs things from a Raspberry Pi, at home, I believe. That impacts reliability, I figure.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de my fault! Err, I meant to say, @bender@twtxt.net’s! LOL.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org ah, if only you were to finally clean up that code, and make that client widely available…! One can only dream, right? :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I mean, dinosaurs “evolved” by getting wiped, right? :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de you said you liked seeing the hash (which is a fair choice!). All I am asking is for a reconsideration as a user configurable feature. ;-) It looks redundant, in my opinion.

@bender@twtxt.net it sure breaks the index formatting.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com, this one, @movq@www.uninformativ.de, is slightly breaking my neomutt index. Will post screenshot from @bender@twtxt.net’s account.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de, that would be a nice addition. :-) I would also love the ability to hide/not show the hash when reading twtxts (after all, that’s on the header on each “email”). Could that be added as a user configurable toggle?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I don’t know if I’d want to discard the twts. I think what I’m looking for is a command “jenny -g https://host.org/twtxt.txt” to fetch just that one feed, even if it’s not in my follow list. I could wrap that in a shell script so that when I see a twt in reply to a feed I don’t follow, I can just tap a key and the feed will get added to my maildir. I guess the script would look for a mention at the start of a selected twt and call jenny -g on the feed.

@bender@twtxt.net Yup! But you should not be seeing any requests from this pod, only the search engine ;‘(until I fix it) 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Hah! 🤣 Please remind me to try to fix this. Just been looking at the code, nothing is “quick”, except to add your domain to an internal blacklist, recompile and redeploy (uggh)

@bender@twtxt.net Hmm I think you’ve uncovered a bug (or interesting side effect) of the crawler in yarns (the search engine) 😢

@bender@twtxt.net Btw, as you know, one thing the yarnd client has always lacked is some kind of “in-app” notification of sorts. Something to inform the user, “hey, you know what feed you follow, it’s looking like it’s kind of dead, maybe consider unfollowing it!” 🤣

I took a guess based on my shell history 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net No no, I get it. It’s just not as simple as any particular solution. Right now I don’t even know what the feed’s full URI was nor who on this pod (if at all) still follows it? I’ll bet it’s an inactive user right? Gimme the full URI was it was and I’ll have a poke at the DB? 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org To be fair I think this needs to evolve anyway. Authoring new “personas” isn’t really that wildly used beyond the admin of a pod and even that’s really just me 🤣

@off_grid_living@twtxt.net What drug is that?

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org Hah! Remind me to talk to you about how yarnd peers with each pod in its own network to do exactly that. Maybe we could open up the protocol and you could potentially pee with other pods?

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org Same here! His server is notoriously unreliable but I know he is somewhat active on Twtxt 😅

@falsifian@www.falsifian.org This is why yarnd has never implement automatic un-following for this very reason. It’s hard (likely impossible) to get 100% right.

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Hah! 😅 Totally didn’t see this coming 🤣 AI and LLM(s) as a “service” posing new security and privacy threats? 🙄

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org It certainly looks like a reasonable approach to me so far 👌

@bender@twtxt.net If you look at your Following list yarnd is continually improving the tools and data available to you especially regarding feed acailabiliry and maybe this helps you manage who/what you follow? 🤔 – I’ve certainly found it immediately useful!

(@anth@a.9srv.net’s feed almost never works, but I keep it because they told me they want to fix their server some time.)

I guess I can configure neomutt to hide the feeds I don’t care about.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Is there a good way to get jenny to do a one-off fetch of a feed, for when you want to fill in missing parts of a thread? I just added @slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net to my private follow file just because @prologic@twtxt.net keeps responding to the feed :-P and I want to know what he’s commenting on even though I don’t want to see every new slashdot twt.

@bender@twtxt.net Based on my experience so far, as a user, I would be upset if my client dropped someone from my follower list, i.e. stopped fetching their feed, without me asking for that to happen.

How great some science people are, to find such a drug inside the soil of only one place in Japan

Haha!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Hmm let’s add it to the switch that marks feeds as “dead” 🙏

@bender@twtxt.net Currently internally feeds are marked as “dead” for some known statuses. But yes nothing is automatically done (yet).

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org errors are already reported to users, but they’re only visible in the following list.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de A family member gave me their old (pseudo-)smart phone and it had all kinds of pre-installed BS that you’re not supposed to be able to uninstall, Xiaomi, FB, google… you name it. but guess what!? I already know about this Trick and then there is the Rethink DNS/Firewall app I have setup to block all traffic then allow the stuff I need with an Allow, Bypass or Exclude rule.

You’d be surprised to see how much traffic is going to blocked!! 🤣
