Home of Bender Rodriguez. Get off my lawn!

And here is one of my many nuggets of wisdom: "Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own theme park. With blackjack and hookers! In fact, forget the park."

In-reply-to » @aelaraji icons at the top are badly organised while on mobile. About the speed, that’s using a shoddy PHP code, it would be slow even when running in a quantum computer. :’-D

@eapl.me@eapl.me 100% would, but I don’t know PHP. I can help testing, and offering ideas. I read somewhere you want to write a remake, right?

One of the things the current model is missing is templating… I think. Maybe start by abstracting that from the code?

In-reply-to » It’s been so rainy and windy and cold these last few days, I hardly left the house. 😩

Cloudy and spotted gentle rains here and there. I think this is the preamble of a cold front (here), which means temperatures will be on the low 20s this weekend and, with any luck, next week. :-D

In-reply-to » My bad! My editor was set to use 4 spaces instead of a tab... Making twts by hand is hard =P

@eapl.me@eapl.me I think you may have:

Deprecated: Creation of dynamic property Twt::$timestamp is deprecated in /homepages/4/d818294726/htdocs/eapl.me/timeline/libs/twtxt.php on line 443

Kind of issue. :-)

In-reply-to » @eapl.me Yeah, that's exactly why I'm asking. I've been having a couple of errors here and there even though I'm using PHP 8.2 ... Mostly somethings about undefined array keys and creation of dynamic properties being deprecated (CC: @sorenpeter )

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com the one you mentioned on your twtxt, but it cannot be seeing here (twtxt.net). Even for feed I am not following, twtxt.net will always show the context. There is no context for this reply of yours.

In-reply-to » Bluesky Says It Won't Train AI On Your Posts Bluesky, the social network surging in popularity, says it has "no intention" of training AI tools on users content.

@prologic@twtxt.net agreed.

In-reply-to » @prologic yes, web content indeed is/has become. I will say a little bit of both. Trying my best not to lose faith in humanity. :'-/

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt meh, I am not into conspiracy theories, though. I would describe it as rot. I mean, there is still plenty of good stuff, but I am old enough to have taken note on the changes.

@prologic@twtxt.net some good reading about Bluesky, on a similar topic.

In-reply-to » Always has been. Web spec is too hard to implement your own web browser from scratch (nothing can, even Google and Apple, they forked KHTML). So if we not count forks we have only three browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Apple Safari

@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt I think that, just like a river’s waters (always new, never the same), there is nothing left of KHTML on any browser which was initially based on it. KHTML was a fork of khtmlw itself, if you want to go down that rabbit hole.

I share my location from my iPhone using “Find My” app with friends and family. I also have a family share, with immediate family.

Even since upgrading to iOS 18, and every once in a while, the location of someone sharing with me gets frozen in time. I see them, but their location doesn’t change for hours. In the case of family share, I can see their device up-to-date, under “Devices”, but they show frozen on the “People” tab. Only way to fix it is for either of us—it doesn’t matter who—to stop sharing, and start sharing again. That has happened to me with three different people, and to three different people, with others (not me).

Is anyone using iOS 18+ experiencing something similar? I have sent feedback to Apple.

In-reply-to » I want to become a solopreneur 🤣 Build a service, or a set of small services with enough customers (not too many) where they provide enough revenue and receive the right amount of value for service that I can just do that.

@prologic@twtxt.net one of its key principles:

Focus on the process: Kaizen emphasises improving the processes that create products or services, rather than just focusing on the end result.”

In-reply-to » After several hard hours, I think I've recovered the last missing 1 Twt from @bender 🥳 Turns out just before I accidentally nuked my pod, I took a dump of it's cached just seconds before 🤣 -- So I was also able to rebuild anything that was missing from the backup from the recent cache dump!

@prologic@twtxt.net time for a well deserved rest. Get well soon. Before you go, monthly call next weekend? If so, set the banner now! :-)
