In-reply-to » As long as you can correctly statically link your binary of course 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m scratching my head already trying to figure this one out 🤣 not sure if just mirroring ldd’s output into my image’s content would do, -I’ve Just found about that one by the way.- but I’ll never know until I try.

In-reply-to » @bender I built my own, a much smaller one with a multi stage build... shouldn't that do the trick? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net Dud! you should see the updated version! 😂 I have just discovered the scratch #container image and decided I wanted to play with it… I’m probably going to end up rebuilding a LOT of images.

In-reply-to » Goodbye Blender, I guess? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I know, nobody asked 🤡 but, here are a couple of suggestions:

  • If you’re willing to pay for a licence I’d highly recommend plasticity it’s under GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE, Version 3.
  • Otherwise if you already have experience with CAD/Parametric modeling you could give freeCAD a spin, it’s under GNU Library General Public License, version 2.0, it took them years but have just recently shipped their v1.0 👍
  • or just roll with Autodesk’s Fusion for personal use, if you don’t mind their “Oh! You need to be online to use it” thing.

(Let’s face it, Blender is hard to use.)
I bet you’re talking about blender 2.79 and older! 😂 you are, right? JK

In-reply-to » I'll be using another URL for this twtxt.

@eapl.me@eapl.me you could use the tw.txt as your primary url and keep the old one as a secondary for a while (maybe even do the opposite) maybe even create the new tw.txt file and make use of the prev metadata pointing at the old … 🤷

# nick = eapl.me
# url = https://eapl.me/tw.txt
# url = https://eapl.me/twtxt.txt

or …

# url = https://eapl.me/tw.txt
# prev = https://eapl.me/twtxt.txt

In-reply-to » @sorenpeter test 5.2

@prologic@twtxt.net sure! I don’t know if this is what you need but, let me give it a try.

  • I have Timeline installed, which has an endpoint to process #webmentions. Mine for example is https://aelaraji.com/timeline/webmention which you can find by querying https://aelaraji.com/.well-known/webfinger.
  • If you mention someone from #Timeline itself, it takes care of querying that and sending in the mention for you.
  • Otherwise (what I personally do) you could just:
curl -i -d 'source=https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt#:~:text=2024-12-09T01:22:37Z' -d 'target=https://aelaraji.com/twtxt.txt' https://aelaraji.com/timeline/webmention

basically what @sorenpeter@darch.dk mentioned in his article Here.

Afterwards, the mentions are stored in their own mentions.txt feed. The one from the example above looks like this on my Timeline :

Feel free to spam my endpoint if you’d like to give things a try. 👍

[P.S: personally, I don’t seem to get the mentions if I add the Text fragment part to my target]

In-reply-to » Did I write here already that the reason why I love Twtxt so much is that it works without having to compile, install anything extra. Just the bin applications that come with 95% of all operating systems and you're good to read and participate, giving you have a domain name somewhere to host the twtxt.txt file.

@bender@twtxt.net I wonder where that dude who was hosting his twtxt feed in a google drive go? 😆 that was hilarious!!

In-reply-to » If there a name for those of us who dislike AI generated imagery, or for the dislike of AI generated imagery in general? A composite German word would do! :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de tried translating that and it said Art lover/enthusiast, that could be correct since that despise of the artificial stems out of “Love for the Actual real Art” although that’s a subjective statement in itself; xD duckduckgo’s translation thing spat out “künstliche-Kunsthasser”

In-reply-to » @bender Well, so far, I’m using the standard web client. Haven’t found a great client yet. 🫤 Mastodon/Fediverse is also very different from twtxt, there are way more images/videos that I’d like to see – a TUI client like toot wouldn’t work for me.

@bender@twtxt.net there’s Pub too but is still experimental I think …

Warning: pub is still in development, if it breaks, you can keep the pieces.

In-reply-to » Hi @prologic Hi @bender 😁 now, Why is my @ mention is all over the place? xD this feed has a # nick = skinshafi so... should I scream buuug ? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net I’ve seen plenty but I doubt you could use any (other than PHP) to actually serve your pages, anything you want to serve, you put in a ~/public_xyz folder (your php files go there too for Apache to serve), no config files/server setting.

But don’t take my word for it, I just got there and still yet to meet people and learn a bit of IT wizardry from them ;)

In-reply-to » Hi @prologic Hi @bender 😁 now, Why is my @ mention is all over the place? xD this feed has a # nick = skinshafi so... should I scream buuug ? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net Twtxt wise, it was kind of disparate at first xD with no access to logs as you may have read on the alt-feed itself. But then, @sorenpeter@darch.dk’s script came to the rescue … like, just in time 😁 Otherwise, everything else is fun as publicised, exploring and learning along the way.

In-reply-to » I’ve been using Mastodon too much lately. The constant notifications are becoming too stressful. I really do prefer slow communication, like twtxt. ✌️

@movq@www.uninformativ.de if it’s just notifications that are bothering you could just go to your /settings/preferences/notifications and uncheck as much boxes as you need … unless you’ve already done that, then… sorry, not sorry we love your posts my friend!! xD And just so you know, you put a smile on my face whenever I stumble upon any of your retro-computing posts! 😁

In-reply-to » Bluesky's Open API Means Anyone Can Scrape Your Data for AI Training. It's All Public Bluesky says it will never train generative AI on its users' data. But despite that, "one million public Bluesky posts — complete with identifying user information — were crawled and then uploaded to AI company Hugging Face," reports Mashable (citing an article by 404 Media).

@bender@twtxt.net That’s the plan! 3;)

@prologic@twtxt.net I bet our twts are already being fed to circuit monsters… Remember the other day when I’d snapped out about some nonsense, being an A-Hole and what not? I’ve seen an AI company employee lurking around with not much interaction (if I’m not mistaken), so my mind went on auto-pilot mode thinking “This !#@%$ must be feeding us to the circuit peggy monster!! Arrr 😤” 🤣🤣🤣 but then again, one shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover (or an employee by his title) right?

In-reply-to » Been curious about how people on Pubnix instances do manage their feed, if they have access to log? Sent in a req to join one still no res.

[Update!] My request to join in has finally gotten accepted over on thunix.net like, two days ago! And now, my alter ego @skinshafi@thunix.net can have a Twtxt feed of its own x)

In-reply-to » Can someone try Alpine Linux with XFCE and Compiz please? Show me how the full screen zoom works in 2024/2025 🙏

xfce’s default Alt+Scroll feels more convenient and you get to zoom in as much as you want as needed before things become indistinguishable, here you can see my original cursor overlapping to magnified one (it only showed during screenshot)
