Then you can show the Timezone based on the last Twt. Is not as specific as having a ICANN Timezone, but I think is precise and dynamic enough.

@prologic@twtxt.net 😮

@prologic@twtxt.net 👆 this is Spanish BTW 😆🤣

I was thinking about it the other day.
Twtxt spec requires the Z (Zulu) Timezone. But what about posting the local time, and the server/client makes the conversions.

That’s even better if you travel around and your local Timezone changes often.

@prologic@twtxt.net this 👆

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t have a clue of your side of the word.
Here it helped that USA was looking for that change. Perhaps if other nearby countries in your side look for it, would be easier.

Here, as the law proposal said, were 15 years of people being against the DST, and a populist government made a rushed fix now.

🙃

Sorry guys, enough rant for today!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de and yeah, the current administration (leftist populist) is proposing half-baked laws for everything. So… What can I say?

My state is in the border but my city don’t. So it’s gonna be a mess if I have to work with friends close to the border. There isn’t even a Mexican Timezone for them, so I’ll have to pick one from USA.

Basically this current map is gonna change completely… With 2 days notice

And we won’t have DST anymore, yeah! 🎉🥳🎈

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, subscriptions are insane. I understand why do companies need them.

But the way it’s worded “We charge you periodically for your convenience” is irritating.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Thanks for sharing.

Usually I don’t like to rant against the government but this one, aaargh!

70%+ of the Mexicans don’t like the DST, Americans neither. So the last few months it has been a thing here. But the timing, Damn!

In fact, if you don’t tell me I didn’t know! Has finished to be official just yesterday, 2 days before the DST change! And now ICANN has made the change really quickly, I’m gladly surprised. I was betting that they wouldn’t have time to react.

That said I think it’s gonna be like with Chile 🇨🇱 a few months ago. They had a similar rushed change and all the systems where broken and patches had to me deployed for the calendars.

Well. That said, I’m in Chihuahua, so my timezone will sync the center of the country which is good, and we are reverting changes from my childhood, haha.

@news@twtxt.net thank You, yarners and Devs for this amazing platform and community.

@will@twtxt.net they are even talking of DAOs that are even worse 😑

I mean, meritocracy sounds good in theory, but I think in practice everything (could) go wrong… More in Dev communities. Let’s see what happens

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci hehe, now I need this

@prologic@twtxt.net come on dude!

Spain <-> Spanish

Hehe 😁

Aaand that’s because Pantone is more about the physical ink to reach that color than the RGB/Hex value and name for it.

Is unfair that Photoshop charges you for something that previously was free? I don’t know.
Before PS had a single payment and now it’s a subscription. I think there comes the main rant.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net I like the ideas of Doctorow but I don’t completely agree on this one.

In this case is like if you register a perfume.
Could a Pantone Rose Perfume be created? I guess so, b/c it’s not only a name (which is a brand), but the recipe to reach to that smell. It’s not so fair under the current IP legislation that someone else can use your work and sell the same perfume as theirs. Would it be plagiarism IMO.

Again, it’s polemic, but in this specific case I think people don’t understand what’s behind licensing a Pantone.

I leave a discussion on that: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33370265

@prologic@twtxt.net 👌

@justamoment@twtxt.net hmmm, perhaps the twtxt URL could be a UUID, like an unlisted link and you share that link with people you want to share access.

I do that a lot with Google Docs to share access to non critical documents.
Obviously if someone makes the URL public, anyone can see or edit the content.

@prologic@twtxt.net haha, I got to work on Saturdays at 9 am 🥲

@prologic@twtxt.net I would vote on preserving the original twt content, but I’ve been really busy and I haven’t thought enough on that to have a strong opinion.

@prologic@twtxt.net it’s difficult for me, it’s like 10pm on a Friday 👀 (I’m in GMT -7)
Could it be on a Saturday some day?

@movq@uninformativ.de Is gitea hosted on Github? 😟

https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/

@~eaplmx@eapl.mx Hey dude! (This is a text for a video I’m recording)

@prologic@twtxt.net sleep soon dude! Or it’s gonna be like my case, dreaming that I’m working 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net Got it!
I thought you were saying this one:

Hmmm, good question. I’m aware the hash is part of the twt, but it can be hidden in the App for readability (I’m thinking of a RegEx or something simpler). How would it be if you hide it on the API? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net Haha, I forgot it was possible. I’m aware that Safari and Edge, for example, have that behaviour by default., but I never use it 👀

Dear #yarners

Thoughts on the new Yarn App logo ?

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Cool ideas! The You’ve read up to here is something I use a lot… Thinking on that

Could you please explain more about “hide the conversation hash and show some way to get to the yarn”? 😀

1. What would you show instead of the Hash? I’m thinking of something like “Conversation” “Yarn view” or similar

2. What do you mean by “show some way to get to the yarn”? I think there is a button, below the twt for a conversation, or do I misunderstand something? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net have a well deserved rest! 🥱😴

In features that could be useful later, what about a way to tag (and perhaps autodetecting if it’s not invasive) the language of your content?

That way you can filter the twts you can interact with 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net 💙

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci haha lines for you

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci it depends on the flavor of Markdown I think https://www.markdownguide.org/basic-syntax#line-breaks

Aaand that’s something I don’t like from Markdown in favor of Gemtext 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net Yes, it’s KiwiBrowser, based on Chromium.

It seems it only respects double line changes.

Examoles:

Another line\n

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci thanks!
That’s how it looks in my web editor, but it changes when the twt is shown.

@prologic@twtxt.net have you documented how the edit button works?
I think it allows you to edit your last twt, but I don’t know if there is a time restriction.

I love to edit (to change my mind or fix typos) and I haven’t thought editing do change your hash.

Interesting problem. Perhaps you shouldn’t be allowed to edit if you have replies.

BTW I’m watching that typing new lines is broken again. (On Web, mobile 📱)
This should be in a new line.
This one as well.

What’s going on with Yarn/Twtxt?
I leave for a day to attend a few classes and talks and a lot happens here

The human icon 👤 is gone

There are new users 👥, yeah 🥳🎉

Some people start to talk in German (?)

There are philosophical debates thanks to our friend Musk

👀 and it’s only Friday

@hashrock@twtxt.net Welcome! Your avatar is amazing BTW

Today’s article on statistics:

@prologic@twtxt.net how do you know I’m not a bot 🤖?

@tkanos@twtxt.net Well, I think the same of Google. I didn’t like DDG so much, so I was looking for options.

Currently I’m very happy with Qwant Lite, Ecosia, and Marginalia. I was using Kagi as a beta user (I think it’s now 10 USD/month) but I went back to the ‘free’ options.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci

I’m saying that b/c I kind of hate when people rant of Twitter on Twitter, say in the Web that the Web is awful. But I don’t see ‘I love this platform’

I also dislike a few radical and (in my mind) unsustainable rants on a few platforms.
But I don’t feel that here.

That’s all folks, have a good morning in the Americas 🌎.

Yesterday I wanted to ‘say’ something but I don’t know how convenient it is… I’ll do it anyway

Twtxt.net / Yarn feels like a nice digital place to be

@prologic@twtxt.net ha, for some reason the web tagged someone else.

If you are interested in the latin/Spanish community that’s something always appealing to me. The reality is that I need to save money and actually earning more for family purposes, but I have some time to help in a community.

That said, its cool to be in an international community (if you tolerate my broken English) than a niche one with few people in Spanish with our local ideas. I don’t know what to think, it’s a matter of available time and resources to spend IMO.

@brasshopper@twtxt.net well, not so good…

I paused my Pod in tw.eapl.mx, since I already have this account to write in English, and now I’m using my current VPS to host a twtxt.txt file in Spanish rather than a whole Vultr that only I was using.
It was more due to budget and time constraints of moderating a (future) community and paying for the server (as I’m cutting costs for stuff I’m not using so much).

About promoting Yarn in the Latin/Spanish community, I did that a bit in texto-plano but they were more willing to use Mastodon due to the current user base and federation with tilde servers.

Any ideas 💡?
