Gopherholes come and go. It’s normal. Got no answer to my mail (No garantee that it’s not sitting in a spam folder).

How I understand that GopherNews will never return back ? ? ?

@bender@twtxt.net Wrong! 💯 I s my fault🤣

@bender@twtxt.net So turns out something is setting my HashingURI to the value {{ .Profile.URI }} and that is making my hashes wrong so it cannot delete or edit twts.

@bender@twtxt.net trying to figure out a bug in yarn.

@bender@twtxt.net thanks for this! Do you remember the numerous times that I have stated the nuances between distributed networks and decentralized networks? With Bluesky it’s even worse as the way they are operating building and maintaining their service, It’s more closer to centralized service than anything remotely close to what we would consider “decentralized”.

@bender@twtxt.net Same 😅

This sounds awful 🤣

yarnd automatically rotates at the configured maximum fetch size.

Btw the way, here’s a copy of the Email I sent to my Federal MP (Elizabeth Watson Brown):

@prologic@twtxt.net Cheers, mate, just saw this reply so thank you. And hope you are feeling better now!

I agree with what you say too. The whole thing is just an odd approach and can’t possibly be effective, all the while causing inconveniences or at worst, being plain weird and invasive like ID verification.

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt up to you. I have mine to rotate at 1,000 twtxts. I have vomited over 400, so far. I have some way to go till rotation. :-D

My feed is only 16K. At which size i should archive feed?

Did you mean Death Internet Theory?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I knew you would like it;)

The news is unsurprising, the article is good, but this quote is priceless - and something we need to keep arguing to lawmakers, again and again:

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt I think it’s worth looking at the Web Browser Timeline to really understand the history and derivation of web browsers over time. I agree that building a Web Browser is complicated and hard, but that’s only because of the expectations we place on web browsers today and the enormous set of features they now carry. Ultimately we’re still talking about one of the most powerful and simplest protocols ever invesnted, the Hypermedia Text Transport Protocol and Hypermedia Systems.

But that’s not what I meant when I said “The web is seemingly garbage these days”.

Always has been. Web spec is too hard to implement your own web browser from scratch (nothing can, even Google and Apple, they forked KHTML). So if we not count forks we have only three browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Apple Safari

@movq@www.uninformativ.de No worries 🤗

HackerBox 0108 Implements a Macintosh 128K Emulator on RP2040 Platform
This month’s HackerBox introduces an opportunity to explore retro computing through the configuration of the PICOboot RP2040 Development Board to emulate the functionality of an original Macintosh 128K. The Pico Micro Mac Kit is inspired by the PicoMicroMac project, which implements a Macintosh 128K emulator using the PICOboot RP2040 development board, powered by dual-core Cortex

Wanted to share that we’re so proud of our six year old son; after taking skating lessons himself, he taught me and my wife how to stop on skates today. He was so proud about that he could teach us something good. Enjoyed also playing table tennis with him in the park, even-though it got windy, we had fun and didn’t give up trying to have a decent game. And at the guided tour at the old hot-metal plant in Duisburg yesterday, he asked the best questions and could be the guide’s assistant - holding the flashlight.

Pequeno bug do Tusky esta manhã, poético e invernal

Image

I still wanna know whether you’ll get your pizzas on time 🤣

@rrraksamam@twtxt.net The specs seem fine for a low end laptop. 👌

I wonder what kind of performance this would offer for daily usage DC-ROMA Laptop II with 8-core RISC-V CPU

Ya know, like how yarn is stable 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Teue but it’s also likely pretty stable 😅

@bender@twtxt.net I can see that 😅 I’m thinking about buying two for the Mills DC to use as CI/CD build machines 🤣

Maybe 🤔

Test

Okay that bug is squished (was my bug, not bluge’s 🤣)

Far out, the new Mac Mini is actually cheaper than one from several years ago 😱

I will promote the feature then, as well as webringer and search (soon™) – After Which we can probably cut a “big ass” release 🤣 (well overdue 🤦‍♂️)

@bender@twtxt.net All good 👍

@xuu@txt.sour.is Which ones in particular do you think could be applied in a truely decentralisd context of say Twtxt/Yarn? Hmm? 🧐

Fuck! 🤦‍♂️ I keep finding bugs in bluge 😢

@bender@twtxt.net If it’s to be removed, what should replace it? 🤔 It’s been enabled as a feature for a while now on my pod, and I do use it occasionally.

@bender@twtxt.net Fair

One of the things I’m going to work on next (maybe today, we’ll see how much time there’s left in the day) is being able to load up old conversations (fallen off the cache) like this one.

Interesting list of features to protect users and communities on bluesky. I wonder if any make sense in text context.

This pod is now using the index for archive twts instead of the old (naive) disk-based index with that results in millions of files over a long time 🤣

I occasionally use the last 5 filters:

• Images/Videos
  
• Without replies
  
• Hide Bots
  
• Hide Feeds (which should be ‘Hide News”?)
  
• Hide my Posts

Anyone actively use filters here? 🤔 If so which ones? If not, why? Any more useful than others? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net I think that’s why I spend so much of my “spare” time doing this right? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net I did, that’s why I asked 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Why “Kaizen”? 🤔

I want to become a solopreneur 🤣 Build a service, or a set of small services with enough customers (not too many) where they provide enough revenue and receive the right amount of value for service that I can just do that.

@off_grid_living@twtxt.net Hmmm

very convincing from an expert !

According to Wikipedia Robert Deutsch is:

Robert Deutsch is an Israeli antiquities dealer, archaeologist, epigrapher, and numismatist. He is known for being accused of six forgery charges of several biblical archaeological artifacts in 2004.

i don’t know what to believe anymore 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Ahh I see 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org very nice shot 👌

https://www.facebook.com/61557698570189/videos/1237381740828460

Listening to robert Deuch about climate modification and artificial changes to our weather

very convincing from an expert !

@bender@twtxt.net parsed and kinked ok for me?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org seems important 😅

You need quant computer to host these key services. Nobody will do that. ActivityPub/Twtxt instance can be hosted on calculator

The Australia Labor government, Albanese and the honourable Michelle Rowland federal member for parliament and communications minster are fucking clowns. It’s stupid shit like this that’s the real problem with “big tech” social media platforms. These morons just simply don’t understand basic economics and basic business.

Why would a company like Meta, X and TikTok give up a large multi-billion dollar segment of the market. That is, young children from the ages of ~3 to 16 (yes kids these days can use a computer or device from a pretty young age!)

The whole masquerade of “online saftey” and the new Australia legislation of the Online Safety Act 2021 is complete and utter bullshit.

You wanna fix this whole cybercrime and cyber bullying that goes on (which btw if you understood how these fucking platforms worked in the first place, you’d realise drives up engagement on the platforms by abusing human emotional and psychological weakness), then ban and make illegal with multi-Billion dollar fines the following:

• Profiting off data collected by users on your platform(s)
  
• Categorizing users on your platform and performing A/B tests
  
• Targeting users (of any age) for advertising
  

In fact just ban targeted advertising period.

Disgusting 🤦‍♂️

@bender@twtxt.net He sure did! 👏 Thanks @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 🙏

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Uh huh sure 😉 Bluesky, the “decentralized” social media platform that won’t steal and profit from your data huh?! 🤦‍♂️

@bender@twtxt.net Yes and Will do! 👌

After several hard hours, I think I’ve recovered the last missing 1 Twt from @bender@twtxt.net 🥳 Turns out just before I accidentally nuked my pod, I took a dump of it’s cached just seconds before 🤣 – So I was also able to rebuild anything that was missing from the backup from the recent cache dump!

Bluesky Says It Won’t Train AI On Your Posts
Bluesky, the social network surging in popularity, says it has “no intention” of training AI tools on users content. “The social network made the announcement on the same day that X (formerly Twitter) is implementing its new terms of service that allow the platform to use public posts to train AI,” notes TechCrunch. From the report: “A number of artists and creators have made their home … ⌘ Read more

Thanks to @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org’s own archived feeds we’ve managed to restore quite a bit and probably only lost a couple of hours. 🙇‍♂️

@wbknl@twtxt.net You of all are the most affected as our newest member of my pod and most recently joined. I’m so sorry 😢

🔥 ATTENTION: I have really bad news folks 😢

Today, (just this morning in AEST) I accidentally nuke my pod (twtxt.net). I keep backups, but unfortunately the recovery point objective (RTP) is at worst a month! 🤦‍♂️ 😱 (the recovery time objective is around ~30m or so, restoring can take a while due to the size of the archive and index) – For those that are unfamiliar with these terms, they essentially relate to “how much data loss can occur” (RPO) and “how quickly you can restore the system” (RTO).

This pod (twtxt.net) is back up and online. However we’ve last the last ~5 days worth of posts y’all may have made on your feeds (for those that use this pod).

I’m so sorry 😞
