@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Are CGI scripts possible? 🤔

@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 ;)

I’m considering becoming a gold or platinum sponsor of the ladybird project

My solution to:

How much will the storage of logs cost for a standard, monolithic 100,000 RPS web application?

• 512 bytes logged per request
  
• 100,000 RPS
  
• ~50MB/s
  
  • ~4TB/day
    
• $0.02/GB Blob Storage
  
  • $0 ingress
    
• 90 days retention
  
  • ~400TB
    
  • $8k Blob Storage
    
• Costs:
  
  • ~$88/day
    
  • ~$2.6k/month
    
  • ~$32k/year

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com i’m more after general feedback on how to improve the search facilities so that I can also improve the global search engine as well. 🤣

on that particular pubnix that is

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com PJP is the only really viable scripting language for websites, right?

@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 ;)

@bender@twtxt.net what kind of game is this? What do you play it on?

So how has the experience been so far?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yup! I re-read that yarn 🤣

@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 …

I understand why I a swarch for this tag didn’t actually work, but I’m curious what the expectations of users are here?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Hmm the tags search here doesn’t pick that Twt up, but I think this search will? https://twtxt.net/search?q=_id:44kqz4q

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Oh! So you are also @skinshafi@thunix.net ? 🤔

Why is my @ mention is all over the place?

Just the way yarnd (my client) behaves, which I’m also refactoring and improving the way mentions are expanded and auto-completed.

@skinshafi@thunix.net Hey 👋

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

A reminder of the problem:

How much will the storage of logs cost for a standard, monolithic 100,000 RPS web application?

Hi @prologic@twtxt.net Hi @bender@twtxt.net 😁 now, Why is my @ mention is all over the place? xD this feed has a # nick = skinshafi so… should I scream buuug ? 🤔

Anyone had a chance to have a go at this problem yet? 🤔I’ll post my solution in a few hours…

@hey@thunix.net hi.

@@thunix.net Hello! 👋

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! 😁

(The Mastodon instance I’m currently on isn’t run by me and the “export data” feature appears to be broken, for example. A good reminder to consider anything I post there as temporary and volatile.)

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

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org That’s not too bad. 😃 Now I wanna do LaTeX again.

I admit that I only follow the groff mailing list to get the occasional email from Doug McIlroy in my mailbox: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2024-12/msg00025.html

@bender@twtxt.net Well, so far, I’m using the standard web client. Haven’t found a great client yet. 🫤 Mastodon/Fediverse is also very different from twtxt, there are way more images/videos that I’d like to see – a TUI client like toot wouldn’t work for me.

Dunno, maybe I’ll make some changes in this area after christmas. Try self-hosting again or something like that …

Thanks. 😅

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I got lucky this time. 🥴 It certainly helps that there is basically nothing behind that tree for 100-200m. When the fog clears up, I’ll take another shot for comparison.

@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?

@bender@twtxt.net oh, I’m pretty sure they’re in my photo archive on my phone. I just picked the best looking rats nest 🤣 yo show!

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Bahahahahahahahahaha 🤣🤣🤣

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

@bender@twtxt.net HahahahahH but honestly the people here are really lovely (-the scammers of course)

@bender@twtxt.net are you being sarcastically for reals? I can’t tell from the photo I just took. 🤣

@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

Bluesky’s Open API Means Anyone Can Scrape Your Data for AI Training. It’s All Public
Bluesky says it will never train generative AI on its users’ data. But despite that, “one million public Bluesky posts — complete with identifying user information — were crawled and then uploaded to AI company Hugging Face,” reports Mashable (citing an article by 404 Media).

It’s hilarious seeing rats nest like this 🤣

in Vietnam’s Hoi An! 🤣 Thailand has very similar, not sure which is worse 😅

@bender@twtxt.net We went to Hoi An today and bought tickets to see the “old town”. We lasted about 2 hours before we’d had enough of the hustle, bustle, scammers, pollution, constant beeping and all manner of over capitalized nonsense! 🤣 We ate nothing! 😅

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