In-reply-to » Transformed four kilograms of blackberries into a bit over three kilograms of blackberry jelly. https://lyse.isobeef.org/brombeergelee-2024-08-19/ The leftover jelly did not fit in prepared canning jars, so I dumped it in a regular drinking glass (which was a mustard glass in its former life): Media The rest is cooling off on the bench outside.

@mckinley@twtxt.net Oh, I didn’t know they’re not native to the US. These bushes grow very rapidly like weeds. I know a few places where they have been heavily cut back, almost cleared completely, but a year later, they’ve already exceeded two meters of height again. Pretty cool. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de It’s very yummy. :-) Unfortunately, the mustard manifacturer changed the traditional slip-on caps to screw caps. Haven’t seen the old jars anymore.

Speaking of web server logs: Unless someone posts one of my blog posts on HackerNews (I never do that myself, don’t even have an account), my twtxt.txt file is always the most requested resource. 😂 It easily gets several thousand hits, way more than the blog’s Atom feed. 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net I didn’t want to hijack @bender@twtxt.net’s thread: There’s two things that feel a bit unexpected regarding the requests of 159.196.9.199 in my logs:

  1. It doesn’t respect HTTP 301 and instead asks for the same URL every time, thus needing a redirect.
  2. Is this one Yarn pod or several? I’m seeing multiple requests from this same IP with different user agents. It’s not a lot, just about 5 different ones (every couple of minutes), but I thought that Yarn only issued one such request? 🤔 You know, when several users follow the same feed, Yarn would only fetch that feed once?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nice. There’s a park here in town with giant blackberry bushes everywhere. They’re my favorite invasive species.

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net This is an arms race the Brazilian government (or any government, for that matter) can’t win unless they effectively disconnect their entire country from the Internet.

In-reply-to » Had a amazing bike ride with the dog today, the weather is a bit cold today (15c). Been wanting to find a gravel road that I can use, without meeting too many others. And today I found that. Got his pulling harness on, got my bike out of the basement, and headed out.

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no @prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net We had some lovely, cloudy 20°C today with some light rain mixed in. But by the end of the week, we’re back at 30°C and beyond. I will definitely enjoy the 15°C at night the next few days.

In-reply-to » Also hammering ferengi.one.

Well, this one (ferengi.one) isn’t hammered (that was my dramatic animal guide showing off, LOL). I believe this one is simply “normal” twtxt.txt usage.
