OpenAI’s Bot Crushes Seven-Person Company’s Website ‘Like a DDoS Attack’
An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: On Saturday, Triplegangers CEO Oleksandr Tomchuk was alerted that his company’s e-commerce site was down. It looked to be some kind of distributed denial-of-service attack. He soon discovered the culprit was a bot from OpenAI that was relentlessly attempting to scrape his entire, en … ⌘ Read more

Hello world

Need to summary all of these logic. So:\u2028 1. If file named twtxt.txt then grab parent directory name or hostname if file in root (and maybe delete ~?) \u2028 2. If file named nick.txt then grab filename

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Thinking maybe you’d like to alpha teat EdgeGuard too? 🤔 – My own alternative solution to Clownflare 🤣

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz This is so cool!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz definitely a fun way to get better at bash scripting by hand (AKA learn how it works besides the extreme basics i know) and use gum to make them cute too

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz both scripts are here under the names ‘getlyr’ and ‘now playing’ if you wanna try them out yourself, just make sure you have gum installed (also curl and jq but most people have those i think) https://git.sr.ht/~chasinglightning/dotfiles/tree/main/item/home/.local/bin

been playing with making fun scripts using charm CLI’s gum library :P

one that gets lyrics from an open lyrics database’s API and accepts input for artist & song names: https://asciinema.org/a/697860

and one that uses a user-provided last.fm API key to pull what’s currently playing or what last played on your account :) https://asciinema.org/a/697874

@prologic@twtxt.net ah that’s good lol! i once pulled from main for a huge web app that i deployed and it haunts me because it will make upgrading so much harder lol

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Have to agree with the comments on this one 😆 Zuck hasn’t invented shit. Period.

Zuckerberg: Apple ‘Hasn’t Invented Anything Great in a While’
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg criticized Apple’s innovation record and business practices in a Joe Rogan podcast interview on January 10, claiming the iPhone maker has not “invented anything great in a while” and is “just sitting” on its flagship product 20 years after Steve Jobs created it.

Nooooooooi 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Hahahahah 🤣🤣

@bender@twtxt.net That could work aactually…

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz pretty much 🤣🤣

@ocdtrekkie@twtxt.net Do you have a copy of his feed in your archive? 🤔🤔

Anyway… Sounds like there is a bug with the version logic. I’ll see if I can fix it.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Building from source and from the main branch is totally fine. In fact encouraged. I have a philosophy of main being stable anyway and making sure backwards compatibility is kept in mind when changing things. i.e: No database migrations to run by hand or what not.

Ugh! Not @david@collantes.us, but this one. I am going nuts. Well, I am nuts!

I am letting this domain go at the end of this year. Another of my alter ego feeds will be gone then. Oh, the humanity! 😅

Yes, error on my side. All of the sudden jenny refused to show me my own posts. Had to recreate mailbox (got rid of cache too) to make it work.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think it was user error. Testing again.

If feed are named twtxt or tw then grab parent directory name!

Testing … (yeah!)

@bender@twtxt.net (secret received!).

nick is yo? Btw say me which method you choiced. I want to make mention fixer like @bender -> @bender@twtxt.net in my post-hook

@prologic@twtxt.net so i did a mistake that i’ve done before and i think i just pulled from the main branch which is STUPID i KNOW and i don’t LEARN but whatever. i was having trouble with my go version and the makefile so i think i literally just ran it as my user with go in the path and redirected the binaries to go to a temporary directory i made and then moved them to /usr/bin lol. i’m not sure what could’ve caused this! probably something in the pipeline of weirdness i just wrote out

@prologic@twtxt.net thank you so much!

@prologic@twtxt.net LMAO thats so funny i need to try jenny i was trying it but i couldn’t figure out my twtxt sync script for it

@prologic@twtxt.net wait thats so cute re: the yarn name! i had no idea! we’re all just keeping the yarn ball rolling…

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz love this for you

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz trueee! good point

Let’s return to previous conversation: what if detect nick from url: pubnix.com/~nick/twtxt.txt is nick, domain.com/anick.txt is anick and etc

I’m so hot when I do things with fabric no sensible person would do

happy friday.

Happy friday.

although I agree that it helps, I don’t see completely correct to leave the nick definition to the source .txt. It could be wrong from the start or outdated with the time.

I’d rather prefer to get it from the mentioned .txt nick metadata (could be cached for performance).
So my vote would to make it mandatory to follow @<name url> but only using that name/nick if the URL doesn’t contain another nick.
A main advantage is that when the destination URL changes the nick, it’ll be automagically updated in the thread view (as happens with some other microblogging platforms, following the Jakob’s Law)

word of the thay, prosoal
Is it a typo of Proposal right? =P (Genuinely asking)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Hmmmm the smell of burning cotton 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Hmm you ate right 😆 Also did you volunteer to fix this 🤔🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net If you’ve got the feed URL in yarnd’s cache, you can easily look up a missing nick. If you can’t find it, just show the URL (or maybe just the domain name to be halfway consistent with this @nick@domain thing that yarnd invented) and be done. It’s really that simple.

When yarnds peer with each other, the odds of actually having come across that feed URL in the past are higher than with traditional clients that only have their local set of subscribed feeds. One additional improvment would be to also look at all the mentions and see if somebody used a nick for that URL and go with that.

Yeah, yarnd currently renders some really weird shit when the mention contains just a URL, but I’d call that a bug for sure.

Personally, I do not like the @nick@domain syntax at all. It looks silly to my eyes. What might have also contributed is the fact of this mentions syntax gotten screwed up so many times by yarnd in the past. But that’s a totally different topic.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @prologic@twtxt.net So, a burning roll of yarn…? :-D

@prologic@twtxt.net Since I live in Germany, I do believe the media here is generally reputable. It really depends where you live of course. Source I look at are Reuters, NPR, The Guardian, Die Zeit, NY Times, CNN, Tagesschau, Spiegel Online, RP Online (for local news), … I would never just trust what I see in my social media feeds.

@gallowsgryph@prismdragon.net Sorry to hear that dude 😢 Hope things improve for you! 👌👌

Wow, what a busy month-and-a-third it’s been. Between family health issues and my own injuries, I’m finally getting a bit of a decent breather.

2025 has been off to a perfect start. /s

@bender@twtxt.net Yes yes I konw 🤣🤣

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz It most certainly was us fucking around 🤣🤣 Turns out to be a side-effect of the way the Twt Subject extension is implemented in yarnd and now apparently jenny 🤣🤣 Where it strips out the subject from the displayed/rendered content. Which is what you want… But oh well haha 😆

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Haha, that’s why we came up with the name “yarn” and “yarn social”. A yarn is an Australian and Canadian (and a few other places) term that means “to have a friendly conversation”, “to have a chat”. Usually around a campfire 🔥

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz The twtxt files for yarnd are stored under /path/to/data under the feeds directory. Oner per user.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de

Was there ever a reason to do that? 🤔

I’m not sure to be honest. I have no idea why you’d ever want to do a “nameless” @-mention@twtxt.net.

As an aside, if we could all agree, I’d personally just say we scrap this whole fragile broken shit and bring out WebMentions and be done with it. And then mentions are always @nick@domain and looked up, cached and can never be screwed up haha 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org

What’s the motivation for deprecation?

Namely that without the mention having a label (as such) it becomes very hard to render it in any sane/nice way. I think we should just stick to @<label url> personally. It makes implementations have to worry about far less edge cases.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org This could just be a bugger Makefile or something. I’m not sure what version @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz built/deployed from? 🤔🤔 – Also I need to release v2.0 soon™

ROFL 🤣

On my blog: Real Life in Star Trek, A Fistful of Datas https://john.colagioia.net/blog/2025/01/09/fistful-datas.html #scifi #startrek #closereading

Thanks, I’m trying my best. Also, nice to meet you (and welcome back?) @oevl@twtxt.net, never seen you around before. 🙌

@prologic@twtxt.net Don’t you dare fix it xD it’s not a bug, it’s a feature! xD

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I’m all in!

Hmm, I just noticed that the feed template seems to be broken on your yarnd instance, @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz. Looking at your raw feed file (and your mates as well), line 6 reads:

# This is hosted by a Yarn.social pod yarn running yarnd ERSION@OMMIT  go1.23.4
                                                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Looks like the first letters of the version and commit got somehow chopped off. I’ve no idea what happened here, maybe @prologic@twtxt.net knows something. :-? I’m not familiar with the templating, I just recall @xuu@txt.sour.is reporting in IRC the other day that he’s also having great fun with his custom preamble from time to time.

That “broken” comment doesn’t hurt anything, it’s still a proper comment and hence ignored by clients. It’s just odd, that’s all.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Very cool!

tt currently supports all three forms: @<nick url>, @<url> and even the illegal @<nick>. The difference between the last two is whether the token in angle brackets looks like a URL or not. Whenever a nick is available, the nick is rendered. In case there is just a URL, it tries to resolve the nick from the subscriptions. If that also does not work, it displays the URL.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i don’t even have like time or space to stream unless it was no mic/video and just me doing stuff on my computer which can be boring without even mic input. plus no way to use camcorder that way. but. it’d be cool if i could so i dream

i wanna try streaming with owncast using my camcorder as the input device because i found out that i might be able to do that and now i really wanna fuckin try it lol

trying to set up @movq@www.uninformativ.de’s jenny client… currently trying to find where twtxt files are stored on the server so i can set up the scp script i have for this

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Even though I’m not an Emacs user, that’s really cool! :-)

good morning yarn friends. we need a funny name for yarn posters. what’s something that fits the yarn theme…. i mean we quite literally have threads here. yarn threads. how epic is that. now us posters need a funny name too.

@suitechic@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz shes the best <3

@suitechic@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz lol thats neat!

@prologic@twtxt.net i thought i was going insane when i saw blank posts on my TL i was like is noscript fucking with me again but no it’s you guys fucking around LOLLLL

@movq@www.uninformativ.de same here lol! my aunt actually got it for me so i’m super excited to tinker with it and i might record a vlog for it :D

@bender@twtxt.net Hahaha! :-D
