Whoohoo! 💪 Last night I added support for SSH Agent Forwarding to sshbox that now enables me to use it as an SSH Reverse Proxy to a private SSH service. I can now use this to front my Gitea’s SSH service 👌 (without exposing my infra behind the proxy or the IP addresses).

Good riddance 2024…
2025, be good or else.

Happy new year Twtxt people. I’m grateful for getting to meet/talk to you all, It certainly was the best thing to have happened to me in this “2024” chapter of my life.

In-reply-to » Are there any good Registry? I like to check the mentions.

I found 2 active Registries: tilde.instite and twtxt.envs.net . I think that is missing a repository or system for them to find each other. It is easy to share registry users. Your work is awesome! Maybe you are supporting twtxt with the pod and software around them. I am very busy with the Emacs client, but I like to work creating my own version of Registry using Django.

In-reply-to » It must already be New Year here. Full continuous fire for ten minutes.

@bender@twtxt.net For sure, we have isolated bangs since at least 12th December, too. That day I also noticed piles of cracker garbage in the forest. What assholes. Luckily, it’s illegal to sell fireworks other than after the last three days in the year. However, people can still import them and they do. :-(

In-reply-to » 3°C today, it was quite nice in the sun. A lot of hunting and tree felling going on in the forest. And we met the heron again, that was very cool: https://lyse.isobeef.org/waldspaziergang-2024-12-28/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de No, that was a wide open field, absolutely nowhere to hide. I reckon it was just a very brave individual. We somehow managed to radiate a sense of calm. :-) It might have been the same heron I saw the other days a few hundred meters west.

Had to turn my freeBSD pet computer off in hopes of saving a couple of pennies off of the power bill. 🥲 And having had a blast spending time living in tty earlier this year, I thinking about daily driving the RPi4B for a while and let the main beast hibernate as well 🧘

In-reply-to » ROFL 🤣 I've found myself a new insult: :diffoff a vim command...

@prologic@twtxt.net it offends someone with a different opinion? 🤣

No, seriously… :diffoff is used to disable vim’s diff mode that’s usually started running vim -d someFile someOtherFile or by having both files on a split window and applying :diffthis on both panes. (just learned this this morning)

In-reply-to » (#g4retha) That FAT12 implementation is very naive and unoptimized. You can see in this video that it takes about 7 seconds to copy a ~10 kB file: https://movq.de/v/fbf2b90ce1/los86-fat12-copy.mp4 🥴 I kind of like that, though, because it feels a little bit like an old machine. 😅🤪

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I have to admit I don’t know nearly enough about how the Linux Kernel works™ much here. I’m quite sure there’s a lot under the covers that we just don’t really fully appreciate 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Ahh so you lack some kind of an open() syscall to hold some state for the open file, i.e: a “file descriptor”? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de All my cameras have an optical zoom. The current one even reaches 18x optical magnification. This feller was very relaxed as we snuck up on him. We didn’t want to scare him off, so we stopped at around four meters. Still, some zoom factor was used to caputure him. :-)

The last few days were very sunny, so is today and the next couple days. One just has to keep moving, or it gets too cold.

In-reply-to » So... Been a while since I've done this... But on macOS the best way to rip DVD(s) now is to 1) Use MakeMKV to backup the DVD disk and decrypt it 2) Use Handbrake to re-encode the backed up DVD disk into something more reasonable 3) Put it on a NAS or Media Server.

The inconvenience of owning your own media content is such a pain 🤦‍♂️ And no, streaming services are just awful for two main reasons, either a) The content you want isn’t on your favourite streaming service or b) Your favourite content disappears.

@emmanuel@wald.ovh Btw I already figured out why accessing your web server is slow:

$ host wald.ovh
wald.ovh has address 86.243.228.45
wald.ovh has address 90.19.202.229

wald.ovh has 2 IPv4 addresses, one of which is dead and doesn’t respond.. That’s why accessing your website is so slow as depending on client and browser behaviors one of two things may happen 1) a random IP is chosen and ½ the time the wrong one is picked or 2) both are tried in some random order and ½ the time its slow because the broken one is picked.

If you don’t know what 86.243.228.45 is, or it’s a dead backup server or something, I’d suggest you remove this from the domain record.

@emmanuel@wald.ovh Thanks! We all worked hard on these extensions to try to turn Twtxt into something a bit more let’s say useable or “user friendly” 🤣 (without breaking things too much of course!)
