@movq@www.uninformativ.de That and no sane person writes Java™ anymore right? 🤣

Cool. I think I’ve improved this abit. Update going out shortly… Also added optional support for displaying gravatar(s) if you supply your email address (optional of course).

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Also thanks mate! 🥰

In fact, it’s a great little invention

Actually. Looking at the template and the BeerCSS docs, I think I’m just using the wrong elements and doing the wrong thing in the template/partial structure itself 🤔 Probably need to wrap text in something else other than a plain ‘ol <p>

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org To be fair, I’m not convinced of the web design / user interface decisions either. I just hacked this together over a couple of days. I’m not sold on any of the UI/UX thus far. Open to suggestions, improvements, hell even a complete CSS rewrite 🤣 UI/UX nor CSS is my strong suite 😂

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Go complain to the BeerCSS 🍻 developers 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What about gioui?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What about more modern alternatives based on GLFW?

@bender@twtxt.net LOL 😂 Timezonea are hard 😆

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Love it! 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org So you’ve RSVP’d then? 🤣

The hail we had yesterday 🤯

@bender@twtxt.net There’s a reason it’s in UTC time 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net LOl so much or building a RSPVP thinty™ ma bob 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net It certainly doesn’t here. I’ve even traced it’s network calls. it makes none.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I guess I wasn’t talking about the speed of interesting text/context, but more the “slowness” of these tools. I think I can build/ solutions and fix bugs faster most of the time? Hmmm 🤔 I think the only thing it’s able to do better than me is grasp large codebases and do pattern machines a bit better, mostly because we’re limited by the interfaces we have to use and in my ase being vision impaired doesn’t help :/

Hmmm 🧐 I’m annectodaly not convinced so-called “AI”(s) really save time™. – I have no proof though, I would need to do some concrete studies / numbers… – But, there is one benefit… It can save you from typing and from worsening RSI / Carpal Tunnel.

Should be rolling out soon™

Fixed following page template bug so cached feed counts render without errors. cc @bender@twtxt.net

@anth@a.9srv.net I’ve never seen my Mac do this? Hmmm 🤔

Okay I think it’s working now

Hmmm nope. I think I’ve fucked up my network for use with self-hsoted WebRTC. This isn’t a PeerCalls thing at all, this is just me.

See if that fixes it? hmmm

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ahh cool! Gatherly needs a “Maybe” for RSVP(s) :)

@bender@twtxt.net It used to work just fine™ - I wonder if it’s my WAF? Lemme turn the WAF off for this tie…

@bender@twtxt.net I think so. Have to retest it though :)

So just @bender@twtxt.net and I attending our monly call eh?

All that’s true! – However I am very competitive (usually with myself!)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think if I was younger, with more energy, and wasn’t blind with leber’s disease (look it up) I’d be fine™ But yeah I get the whole “exhausting” apart. I’ll join you this year, since there’s only 12 puzzles and as you say, we can “take our time” it might actually be fun! (as opposed to exhausting and pressured).

@movq@www.uninformativ.de This is actually a good positive change I think!

Personally, I’ll probably stretch it out over 24 days. Giving myself more time to solve each puzzle and I really want this event to last the entire month. 😅

I might even do AoC this year with the elevated stress/pressure! – The last few times I’ve tried, I’ve always felt far too much pressure and felt like a failure 😞 (mostly ya know because of my vision impairment, I couldn’t keep up!)

Reminder, kick-starting our monthly social call! 📞 Please RSVP if you can make it!

Hey all 👋 Starring up the monthly social call we used to have 🤞 Please RSVP here if you can make it! 🙏

Behold! 🥳 I consider Gatherly “good enough”™ to use: https://gatherly.mills.io/ 🤟

Like these Car Manufacturers, like GWM, Toyota, Mercedes, BMW and whoever else does this stupid shit™ need to pull their heads out of their asse. :O

Obviously none of this requires an Internet connection, let alone a Network connection. All of it can be done over Bluetooth! Just like Carplay itself!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, this is similar to my 2025 GWM Cannon Ute (truck) that we recently bought. It has this app called the “GWM App” that lets you view various health/stats of the vehicle, open/close the door, locks, control the A/C etc, all from your Mobile Phone. – But… Guess what?! :D It has a goddamn fucking SIM card in the head unit (dash) somewhere that once you “consent” and agree it signs up to some god knows what local cellular service and all that wonderul functionality is controlled by, guess what… A fucking goddamn CLOUD service! da actual flying fuck is wrong with these people?! – Are we some of the only people in the world that realize how fucking dumb all this Internet-connect shit™ really is?

@thecanine@twtxt.net Pretry much🤣

Weird setup right? 😆

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Too many things˚ running on AWS eh?

@bender@twtxt.net Sweet 🤟

Anyone interested in starting up the monthly social calls we used to have? 👋

Yeah technology is honestly quite garbage 🗑️

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Speaking of “clusterfucks”. Every fucking time I try to type something on my fucking goddamn iPhone’s little tiny ass on-screen keyboard it ends up typing out “I love you!” 🤟 For fucks sake 🤦‍♂️ – Given the size of the fucking goddamn on-screen keyboards on these things and folks with limited/poor vision, can’t we figure out what I meant to type instead of spitting out total garbage nonsense that I had no intention of typing that makes me just look silly and stupid?! 🤬 Ask @bender@twtxt.net how many times this has happened on IRC whenever I’ve been on my phone 📱

@bender@twtxt.net Okay 👌

I disabled the compression of logs on my edge, which I’m hoping will fix the “instability” I see every now and again where my edge network just “falls off the face of the earth”. Some folks don’t really appreciate / understand this, but Disk I/O can kill your application(s) no matter what. I/O Wait is a real thing.

@xuu@txt.sour.is Haha 🤣 I’m already have “conversations” with my junior engineers on “how to best use” and “how to avoid” 😂

@arne@uplegger.eu Yeah SSE + HTMX is basically all you need really. The whole complicated/complex JavaScript ecosystem is overkill.

@bender@twtxt.net No I did 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Is dealing with spam fun though? DDoS attacks? DoS attacks? Scans for all kinds of stupid shit™? Malware? Advertising? Tracking? Spying? ..

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I wouldn’t consider this a “dark web”, no. It’d just be a new web on top of an already existing “physical” infrastructure, where the web that grew out of that is total garbage.

🤔 💭 🧐 What if, What if we built our own self-hosted / small-web / community-built/run Internet on top of the Internet using Wireguard as the underlying tech? What if we ran our own Root DNS servers? What if we set a zero tolerance policy on bots, spammers and other kind of abuse that should never have existed in the first place. Hmmmm

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh dear 😅 We’re starting to see this “garbage software” too over here 👈

@bender@twtxt.net So far so good 😊 I’ll let you know how things go though!

I keep getting this email occadionally:

Your iCloud storage is almost full

Now for various reasons, I don’t want my children to be using iCloud to store data, files, photos or any of the sort. They’re free to use iMessages, and other Apple services like the App Store, etc, but not storage.

So I’ve set about blocking iCloud Storage API(s) via AdGuard Home tonight as well as ensuring that my local network (client users) cannot bypass DNS policies and get out other sneaky ways, because some applications will just use other DNS servers, or DOH or DOT.

@important_dev_news@n8n.andros.dev Fuxk me decision makers are fuxking stupid sometimes 🤣

The people that design these bills and laws are unhinged.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Good glad to hear it 😄

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Where do you stand on this nonsense? 🧐😆🤣

@klaxzy@klaxzy.net Fuxk yeah 🙌

@important_dev_news@n8n.andros.dev Thank fuxk 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Cool! 😎 You might be interested in my own learnings and toying around with building my own container engine / tooling (whatever you wanna call it) box. I had to learn a bunch of this stuff too 😅 Control Groups, Namespaces, Process Isolation, etc.

@bender@twtxt.net See the problem is you don’t live in the “busy” enough 😂 There are roaches everywhere here! 🤣 LOL snakes too! Plovers, Magpies, Crows, Spiders, even Deer for fucks sake 😂

@bender@twtxt.net We have quite a few that are basically part of our friendly neighborhood. They knew we won’t chase them aware, scare them, etc. In fact some of us find little cockroaches to feed them, tose ‘em up in the air and watch them sweep in and grab the little suckers 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Dunno 🤷

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Here’s my magpie 🤣

This ☝️

@movq@www.uninformativ.de damn! those are some fine looking chickens 😆

@zvava@twtxt.net feeds are fetched at least every 5m (if they’ve changed)

And my new migrated blog is up woohoo 🥳 https://prologic.blog/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Bahahahaha 🤣😆

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same 👌

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Cool! 😎

@bender@twtxt.net Yes! What you’re seeing in the demo is just demoing the routes file and redirects, etc/. Pathing more.

I think I’m just about ready to go live with my new blog (migrated from MicroPub). I just finished migrating all of the content over, fixing up metadata, cleaning up, migrating media, optimizing media.

The new blog for prologic.blog soon to be powered by zs using the zs-blog-template is coming along very nicely 👌 It was actually pretty easy to do the migration/conversation in the end. The results are not to shabby either.

Before:

• ~50MB repo
  
• ~267 files
  

After:

• ~20MB repo
  
• ~88 files

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I was gonna say 😅 The problem isn’t that bad 🤣 But still we should fix this soon™ 🔜

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You were seeing that mayn hash collisions for you to notice this? 😱

@bender@twtxt.net I’ve made several improvements today, tightened up the line height and density of the text plus a few other nice things too! I think I’m ready to start migrating my blog over to this 😅

@bender@twtxt.net I agree ! I reckon the line height could be a bit smaller 👌

Pretty happy with my zs-blog-template starter kit for creating and maintaining your own blog using zs 👌 Demo of what the starter kit looks like here – Basic features include:

• Clean layout & typography
  
• Chroma code highlighting (aligned to your site palette)
  
• Accessible copy-code button
  
• “On this page” collapsible TOC
  
• RSS, sitemap, robots
  
• Archives, tags, tag cloud
  
• Draft support (hidden from lists/feeds)
  
• Open Graph (OG) & Twitter card meta (default image + per-post overrides)
  
• Ready-to-use 404 page
  

As well as custom routes (redirects, rewrites, etc) to support canonical URLs or redirecting old URLs as well as new zs external command capability itself that now lets you do things like:

$ zs newpost

to help kick-start the creation of a new post with all the right “stuff”™ ready to go and then pop open your $EEDITOR 🤞

#awesome #zs

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Very cool! 😎

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Is this for your own OS? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Shh yes 🤣 this is the problem with politics 😆 by that definition; I’m not conservative 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net Yes but I guess what I’m saying is; “so what about it?” Aren’t most places in the world these days “multicultural” to some degree or another? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Well see that’s just what the freak’n tests say about me haha 🤣

immigration and multiculturalism

What about it? I grew up in a multicultural country.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m glad it make sense for you 😅 I will never understand it. All I know is that I’m a conservative socialist and there’s a lot of “stupid shit”™ happening in the world (including my own country). I still blame extreme Capitalism.

Okay @bender@twtxt.net I think I’ve made enough improvements now…

https://zsblog.mills.io/

🤞

@bender@twtxt.net 🤣

I hope no-one here is a “nutter” 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de See here’s the thing… I just don’t fucking gt this whole “left” vs. “right” shit™ anymore. None of it makes any sense whatsoever. When my wife tries to explain it to me it’s completely the opposite to what you just said just now 😱 – So from here on, I’m just going to keep things simple” nutters” and “normal” 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net I feel you buddy 🤗 At one point we have quite a vibrant community. Phil was great, jlj too and Adi was well just Ado 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Yup! Fixing that now! 👌 Also the Tags page and the size of the trags is intentional, as more posts are tagged with the same tag, those will result in larger size rendered tags in a kind of “tag cloud” – At this this is the intention.

@bender@twtxt.net Ahh yes I see what you mean. no indicate of when the post was made right? That should be ideally displayed on the page somewhere? Would you expect it in the url as well, because not having /posts/yyyy/mm/dd/.... was actually intentional. But yeah I should figure out where to put some additional metadata on the page.

@bender@twtxt.net hopeful of the same 🤞

I will try to improve the CSS 🙏

the single posts have no date (intended?)

What do you mean by this? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Kill it with fire 🔥

https://zsblog.mills.io/ for anyone interested. I think I still have some small tweaking to do befor eI use this for realz.

@alexonit@twtxt.alessandrocutolo.it Yeah I think we’re overstating the UNIX principles a bit here 🤣 I get what you’re trying to say though @zvava@twtxt.net 😅 If I could go back in time and do it all over again, I would have gotten the Hash length correct and I would have used SHA-256 instead. But someone way smarter than me designed the Twt Hash spec, we adopted it and well here we are today, it works™ 😅
