ya girl’s officially a credited code contributor for the biggest fanfiction site in the world! (i did the gif icon fix) https://archiveofourown.org/admin_posts/31720

@prologic@twtxt.net haha true ig! :‘)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ahh but you’re like one of a very few that actually own domains and do interesting things 😅

wish i could join in on the domain age discussion but i registered my first domains last year

@bender@twtxt.net How do you explain mine then? Unless it was registered before me, then let go of and I re-registered it later? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net I will pull the email. The year is about right.

@bender@twtxt.net I’m not sure this is accurate, if you lookup mine:

$ whois shortcircuit.net.au 2>&1 | grep -i creat
created:      1986-03-05

I think this has to be the registrar’s creation date no? 🤔

@anth@a.9srv.net happy birthday, “youngster!”

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org fuck yeah!!! glad you had some fun

@movq@www.uninformativ.de OH SHIT I TOTALLY FORGOT LOL! thanks for telling me! they’re just frontends for ultimate guitar - so these links

@anth@a.9srv.net 24 years is quite a long time. 😳 My blog domain is from 2006 (still, almost 20 years, oof).

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz These are behind a login. 🤔

Thanks to @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz and her shelf I finally spent several hours in the woodshop. I wanted to build two drawers for the workbench and thought that I will complete this project in no time. I’ve been so wrong again. ;-)

I didn’t draw any plans, just measured a few times and then went to cutting a bunch of particle board leftovers at the table saw. I routed rebates on the sides, fronts and backs to lap the boxes and sink in the bottom. It turned out that having no plans was a stupid idea. I cut exactly on the lines as I calculated and measured, however, the math in my head fell apart when it eventually met reality. The bottoms are too short, so I gotta glue on some strips. Also, with the longer fronts, the sides won’t work either, I have to fix them as well. :-D

Finally, the lid of my cyclone bucket broke when the negative pressure got too large. Oh well. It was just an old wood glue bucket, I’ve got another empty one, so I can use that lid but strengthen it first with some plywood. Something for future Lyse to deal with.

All in all, it was still good fun. Wood (haha) do it again, but at least with some sketches on paper. ;-)

The thing about upright bass is that you must play it on a regular basis. At least several times a week, ideally daily. It requires quite a bit of strength and it’s very easy to lose those muscles again – at least I don’t use them that much otherwise. 🤣 I’ve been through several cycles of “gain strength → lose strength → goto 0” now …

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz maybe i’ll try to incorporate it into my PHP fanlisting project if i can find a use for an HTMX component

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i wanna play with HTMX sometime T__T no energy….

wahhh i wanna make websites but i’m so tired and low energy

noice is very handy, especially the search feature https://git.2f30.org/noice/

@prologic@twtxt.net anubis is THE BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

Yeah I can’t figure out when I registered shortcircuit.net.au 😭

@anth@a.9srv.net Congrats, that’s pretty cool! Quite some time, I’m impressed.

@prologic@twtxt.net You’ll sometimes find the “Creation Date” in whois. Our domain was registered in 2009. Woah. That’s also been a while, crazy.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yup, that’s Mr. Compiler Explorer. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org … and I realized only now that that’s the guy behind godbolt.org? I never assumed “godbolt” to be a human name, more like some kind of wordplay. 🥴

None of the above. 🤣 Just a more recent album.

According to a very old email one of my more personal family domains was registered in 2013 making it 12 years old, so I was closed 🤣 my public facing one is much much older 🤣

@anth@a.9srv.net I actually don’t have a clue how old my public-facing domain is 🤣 I have another more personal one that’s probably around ~15 years, but I’m not even sure how to check tbh 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I agree with this sentiment 🙌

My main domain name turned 24 years old today. That feels weird.

@prologic@twtxt.net There have always been and there will always be people who have absolutely no clue what they’re doing. I’ve been 100% one of them when I started. Guaranteed, heaps of new SQL injections are born every single day, numbers rising.

That doesn’t justify all the WAF crap in the first place, though. In my opinion it’s just a filthy plaster applied to an injected wound. The software itself must be secure. Otherwise, don’t put that shit on the internet. Probably not even operate it at all. Nowhere. Fix it or throw it in the bin.

And yes I’m taking some inspiration from Anubis here 😅

One thing about my design here is that it would no longer incorporate “regex”-based rules like OWASP, mostly because my experience thus far has taught me that these rules are kind of overly sensitive, produce false positives and I’m not sure they are really very effective. For example, why is the point of performing SQL injection detection at the Edge using a WAF if you already handle SQL properly in the first place? (seriously does anyone still construct SQL queries by hand with effectively printf?!)

Also spent the morning continuing to think about a new design for EdgeGuard’s WAF. I’m basically going to build an entirely new pluggable WAF that will be designed to only consider Rate Limiting, IP/ASN-based filtering, JavaScript challenge handling, Basic behavioral analysis and Anomaly detection.

The only part of this design I’m not 100% sure about is the Javascript-based challenge handling? 🤔 I’m also considering making this into a “proof of work” requirement too, but I also don’t want to falsely block folks that a) turn Javascript™ off or b) Use a browser like links, elinks or lynx for example.

Hmmm 🧐

Running monthly backups…

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @bender@twtxt.net Hahaha! I can’t recall either, maybe even just a chisel or a knive? I’m not terribly good at it, not even close. It’s just fun. And I do it all too rarely. :-/

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com this is awesome!!!!

wanna do so much stuff today but i’m just so tired

Ok, now I’ll have to print a Paositive vibes T-Shirt 😅🤣

I’ve been poking around with #Crowdsec for the past couple of days, had to deal with a lot of false paositives but I’m starting to get it. I’ve even hooked it up with #Ntfy just because I can. Now I should try making my own scenarios and see how it goes.

@terron@duque-terron.cat este gato habla Castellano, o Catalan? Esa oracion suena extranya en Castellano. Yo hubiera escrito:

“En estos momentos, no sé si le está pidiendo a un dios que libere su pueblo felino, o está mirando una paloma.”

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz woodworking is completely down @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org ally. You could really say that he was born with a saw in his hands. Or an axe, I don’t remember.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de a first edition signed Superman comic book, carefully folded just to fit, but not damaged enough to have lost its value?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oooh that’s a good point! woodworking is scary and i don’t have much room for it but i do have SOME room in mind that could work for it… i feel like i’d just hurt myself in the process though LOL

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz That’s cool. Also, looks like a fun woodworking project in case you exceed the hundred slots. :-) The plywood lap joints might be quite repetetive, but gang cutting them with a story stick or some other fixture shouldn’t be too terrible.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Their gold teeth collection? ;-)

What do you think I just learned about in this awesome Computerphile video with Matt Godbolt called “Subroutines in Low Level Code”? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1su3lAh-k4o

Here’s the plot twist, the phrase “till the cows come home”. Hahaha, I never heard this before, but I love it! It’s always interesting to me to hear English sayings. Sometimes we have the same in German, sometimes – like in this case – entirely different ones. It’s fascinating that even though one hasn’t come across proverbs, it’s typically still clear from the context what’s meant.

Yep, some unexpected language stuff. ;-)

i got a shelf for all my cassette tapes! from a lovely person on facebook marketplace :] i don’t think they produce these anymore, i think i got a good deal

Thanks, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! That seems to be much easier. It’s already implemented in the Python docs as examples of recvmsg(…) and sendmsg(…):

• https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.recvmsg
  
• https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.sendmsg
  

I looked at them sooo many times in order to figure out why my SCM_CREDENTIALS sending code didn’t work. :-D

Sometimes things go wrong when buying CDs second-hand. I bought an album quite cheap – but as it turned out, they only checked the cover, not the content, so I got something else instead which is actually much more expensive. 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net Exactly. 😂 (Texudus.)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nice! Next up: Passing file descriptors over Unix sockets. 😃

AMERIPOPE

Yesterday, I had a look at Unix domain sockets and how to obtain the caller information: https://lyse.isobeef.org/caller-information-via-unix-domain-sockets/

@sorenpeter@darch.dk spot on! xD

#VegetarianAMovieOrShow

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ahh I see ! 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net ah that’s alright! the banner is just for fun :] it might be easier to skip to the comments with this link if you want (it’s in the site view mode rather than my page’s theme) https://luckyzukky.dreamwidth.org/98451.html?style=site#comments

Love all the funky colors though 😎

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz You’ll have to forgive me 🙏 My vision impairment is getting in the way of seeing this “prompt box” thingy 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, the post is here! you can check the comments to see my friends and i talking and stuff it’s so fun https://luckyzukky.dreamwidth.org/98451.html

Or is it Textadus (hmm not sure I can even spell it 😱) now? 🤔

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Hah 😅 Just like how we ‘all just talk about Twtxt right? 🤣

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz This sounds cool! 😎 Can you show me? 🤔

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Look into using something like pyrra for creating and managing SLO(s) with Prometheus 👌 I use this myself actually, plus I also use HetrixTools for external monitoring with SLO-style measures via status.mills.io 👌

i started a little thing on my dreamwidth and called it a flash prompt box. basically it’s a limited time thing where people can prompt me for stuff i’m offering, like short fanfiction, photoshop-edited user icons, music recs, and a bit more! i’m having sooo much fun with it so far it’s been a blast just making stuff for friends :)

also more friends are making their own posts with the same concept which is SO cool to see

new blog post: how i organized my obsidian vault for writing and made it super cool and awesome! https://bubblegum.girlonthemoon.xyz/articles/13

@prologic@twtxt.net noted! that all sounds very scary to me but i should lock in for the best experience for my users! (the best experience for my users is my server not crashing most of the time though so i guess the next best experience LOL)

@bender@twtxt.net Me too! She’s awesome 🙌

Move beyond basic threshold alerts! Define clear Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and measure Service Level Indicators (SLIs) to track real user impact. Use Prometheus to alert when your SLOs are at risk, ensuring you focus on what truly matters to your users. #Monitoring #SRE #Prometheus

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I’d recommend alerting off of Prometheus 👌

@xuu@txt.sour.is Cool! I’ll have to give it a watch 👌

@xuu@txt.sour.is a Star Wars series, eh? Never been a fan. I am Trekkie instead; it comes across as more science fiction, less fantasy. Still, I would see it if only we had Disney+. 😩

grafana is confusing af i deployed it again for my job (that is so wild to say…) and i’m like HOW DO THESE ALERTS WORK

Leyendo sobre teoría de números y aplicándola a Forth

Watched the third installment of Andor for last night. That was some intense story telling. When it finished I was shaking from how much it had brought me into it all. Just wow.

@prologic@twtxt.net I read a little about her. Looks to be a good fit for the seat she is holding. I hope she gets to keep it.

Really hoping Elizabeth Watson Brown wins and hold her seat here in Ryan 🙏

@bender@twtxt.net Deal!

@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net That would be fantastic! I encourage you to give feedback or give your experience as an issue: https://codeberg.org/Texudus/website/issues
The specification gives the feeling that it is complete, but there is always gap for small adjustments.

@bender@twtxt.net LMAOOO ty bender!!! everything i do is vibes alone

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz if I haven’t said it before, please allow me to say it now: I kinda like your attitude. Heck, I love it!

@prologic@twtxt.net no clue whenever my servers crash i never know why i just wing it

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Any idea why?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yes, it’s bad, but it’s the message what’s important. Now, if you want, I can give you a different perspective on the site, so that you will not see it as horrible anymore. And I will do for only $199.99. A bargain!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh yeah, this is a great article! The site looks quite horrible, but tastes are different. :-)

And on a similar note, cross-post from Mastodon:

What I love about HTML and HTTP is that it can degrade rather gracefully on old browsers.

My website isn’t spectacular but I don’t think it looks horrible, either. And it’s still usable just fine all the way down to WfW 3.11:

• Some blog post in various browsers
  
• Git repo viewer (stagit)
  
• Older photos of WfW 3.11
  

It’s not perfect, but it’s usable. And that makes me happy. Almost 30 years of compatibilty.

The biggest sacrifice is probably that I don’t enforce TLS and that HTTP 1.0 has no Host: header, so no vhosts (or rather, everything must come from the default vhost). (Yes, some old browsers send Host:, even though they predate HTTP 1.1. Netscape does, but not IBM WebExplorer, for example.)

(On the other hand, it might completely suck on modern mobile devices. Dunno, I barely use those. 🤪)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I LOVE THIS POST LOL

@movq@www.uninformativ.de hahaha! They sure have a point. There is always the next, shinny bandwagon to jump into.

https://alex.party/posts/2025-05-05-the-future-of-web-development-is-ai-get-on-or-get-left-behind/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org it’s thankfully sorted out now but i literally turned on my PC and was like WTF IS GOING ON

@bender@twtxt.net kinda sorta, it’s in a docker container so not a VM but like VM-ish?

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz are you running Grafana in a separate physical machine (or VM) than the one you are pulling metrics from?

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh dear, what a way to start the day! :-(

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com you got this!!!!!! grafana is SO confusing but you’ll get there :D
