Finally spending the time/effort today (on my day off) to see if I can get a working prototype and proof-of-concept self-hosted alternative to Clownflare going. Components I’m using so far are: Alpine Linux (may swap this out for µLInux at some point), Wireguard, Caddy.

↳ In-reply-to » Okay, this is pretty cool. My 8086 toy OS running on my old Pentium from an actual floppy disk. 😍 I just love that sound and the feeling of using floppies. This brings back so many memories from my early DOS days.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Holy moly! 😱 You’ve written all the userland tools for your Toy OS too right? 🤔

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).

@movq@www.uninformativ.de the sound of the disk drive brought back so many memories! (second time I type this, first time the reply seemed to go through, just to find myself logged out 🤯).

↳ In-reply-to » Good riddance 2024... 2025, be good or else.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I would agree 2024 wasn’t a good year for our family either. While I understand every year doesn’t need to positively excel, one can only hope, right? 2024 went out of the way to be bad.

I am truly happy to have met such amazing people through this “simple” medium. Thank you all for bearing with me, and my often outspoken, borderline “assholery”, attitude. I am working on it, be assured.

See you all next year!

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. :-(

For my reference, but anyone else too… Creating a new Wireguard public/private key pair and bringing up a new client:

# Optional

@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)

So I joined Stacker.news a few weeks ago. It’s like HackerNews if you consider a hot air balloon to rival a MiG-35 fighter jet.
And it turned out to be exactly what I expected.

↳ In-reply-to » 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.
