@hashrock@twtxt.net cool! I made one on Python 3.10, maybe I should share if it’s useful for someone

@hashrock@twtxt.net *researchs on what is Deno 👀

@prologic@twtxt.net if I remember correctly someone suggested a tool to ask for time preferences, and supposedly it gave you the best options for the group.
I signed up for one but never really used it.

We could try for the next one…

@marado@tilde.pt in my videos I’m going with twt=tweet, and twtxt=tweetext

It reminds me of the Web 2.0 trend like on Flickr 😅

@mckinley@twtxt.net I wanted to make a similar table, mainly for organizing meetings with countries in the Americas 🌎) and for dealing with random DST dates and such…

Your table is amazing! Kudos 😃

@prologic@twtxt.net I work on Fridays, usually have a bit of family time on Fridays afternoons and I have classes of Saturday mornings (GMT -6)

Ssturday’s evenings are the best for me.

@prologic@twtxt.net These are the most decent times I found for most of us
(Mexico City is Americas Central Time, and I guess Sydney is a good reference point for aussies, I’m sorry if not 😬)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 🤩

@axodys@octobloc.xyz What’s image mockup tech? A preview of how you will wear some frames? 😮

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m thinking that a future filter could be ‘twts in languages I know’

@prologic@twtxt.net sounds like a cool project! 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net https://texto-plano.xyz/~eaplmx/twtxt.txt
I could remove it if yarndneeds to find a 404

@prologic@twtxt.net You need to stop changing that page very often, every time I read it is different! 😋 #joking #orItIsJustMyBadMemory

That said, having the option to micro-blog with an emoji, or mega-blog with a decent-sized post is cool IMO.

@prologic@twtxt.net Hmmm, let me split it into 2 things:

1. darch was replying to #3dgf3ma and tagged the wrong eaplmx. I’ve seen that sometimes Yarn Web tags the wrong people. I don’t know if that’s the case here.

2. The account in texto-plano appears in twtxt.net as a mention suggestion although I’ve unfollowed it. I don’t know if having a lot of ‘garbage’ accounts is a matter.

@prologic@twtxt.net mega-microblogging? 😅

@darch@neotxt.dk Here is an example: https://codepen.io/quinlo/pen/ReMRXz

Found here: https://www.sliderrevolution.com/resources/css-checkbox/

@darch@neotxt.dk @prologic@twtxt.net is there any way to remove @~eaplmx@texto-plano.xyz (texto-plano)? It’s a ‘dead’ twtxt currently. I only use @eaplmx@twtxt.net (English) and me@eapl.mx (Spanish)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh, thanks!

I’m aware that those cheap devices FM have awful quality and low range.
I’m thinking of something like: https://www.amazon.com/-/es/05B-Transmisor-estaci%C3%B3n-0-138-supermercado/dp/B0B251XK2R/

But I’m seeing bad reviews, on a lot of static and bad audio quality. And again, now Bluetooth has much better quality than FM can give, so it’s more for nostalgic purposes, like LoFi music, artificially adding noise.

For DVDs, damn, we’ll need to make backups, especially for content hard to find again Who would think?

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci @movq@www.uninformativ.de Pinterest is amazing! In fact, I’ve replaced FB, Reddit, and Google Photos with it.

It has its own problems, but my main use case is discovering related images. For instance, memes and funny pictures for my wife, visual ideas for work, or even random comics and photos just for the sake of it. It autodetects language, so it’ll mostly suggest content in languages you already know, and it has few ads.
Also allows you to store your own content publicly or privately, so I use it to save or pin my images instead of on a shared Drive Presentation or a random chat.
I don’t use it that much to save websites, but I see a lot of people doing that.

Finally, I don’t know if a Self-hosted Pinterest is useful for me. To manage my own content I’d look for a Google Photos replacement, and I’ll miss the discoverability from other authors.

@darch@neotxt.dk Looks amazing! I’d only add the checkmark from my previous image or any other way to know if something is toggled on or off. At first sight it’s difficult to know if On twtxt.net is on or off.

In terms of a11y, I have never done that, I guess instead of <a> it could be styled checkboxes due to the on-off nature.
More info here: https://www.a11ymatters.com/pattern/checkbox/

I wasn’t aware of this term, cool!

A random example I found out there:

@justamoment@twtxt.net Chip style design? What’s that? intrigued 🧐

Here 😉 https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/app

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net I’ve used FreeTube but I don’t love it, it’s too limited. I’ll try DuckPlayer when it’s available for Win.

Just to know, are you involved with DDG in some way?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Is that really happening with your original CDs/disks?
I thought the lifespan was decades 😮 is it perhaps a matter of humidity?

I threw away all my CDs and DVDs so I don’t have that problem anymore, but I wonder what would happen with my grandpa’s discs. And yeah, moving home with physical media, music 💿, books 📚, magazines 📜, is troublesome.

I leave a few links on the topic, if anyone is interested

@movq@www.uninformativ.de what was horrible ? audio quality, troublesome setup ?

What did you use for FM transmission ?
I wanted to setup one in my university so it’s a kind of pending project

@movq@www.uninformativ.de haha, it is 😆

#stupidIdeasOfTheWeek

1. Listening to podcasts on an Audio cassette player like Amazon - fosa Car Audio Cassette Adapter SD MMC Mp3 Player Adapter with Remote Control

2. Streaming my favorite podcasts on a domestic FM transmitter, so I can listen on an FM radio w/o bringing my phone.

3. Sharing previous thoughts on audio and music formats: https://text.eapl.mx/re-compact-discs

@justamoment@twtxt.net Haha, that’s amazing… Could you raise an issue on Gitea, please? 😀

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net 450k-720k USD? Sounds to me like a big number!
A decent house here is about 50k-100k. With 500k you can get a small mansion in important cities.

Also, the average wage in my country is about 500-1,000 USD/month, so I guess it’s a matter of numbers. Thanks for sharing, it gives me perspective.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net That’s part of the plan. Sadly the monthly payment for that house is 2-3x the cost of the rent. The interest rate is about 10.5% yearly (I guess it’s not huge, IDK how it is in your countries)

Here by law, the debt must take up to 20 years (WTF!) to be paid, so shouldn’t be longer than an average lifetime. But if you are unable to pay at that time, they don’t give you the credit, so you feel like you have no options.

Well, enough ranting. That’s how it is, so we’ll keep looking for options 😄

Thanks everyone! I had a tough but important talk with my wife after receiving the negative from the bank, and we’ll lower the expectations while we work as hard (and relaxed) as we can.

🙂

@prologic@twtxt.net Oops, I haven’t seen this twt. Please look at #3dgf3ma

Hmmm…
Go instead to the lower limit of Miller’s Law (about having 7 +/- 2 options)

That means max 5 elements.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I tried Vivaldi but I didn’t get hooked. I heard of it over and over again. I guess I need to take a look again!

I’m loving the way Microsoft Edge allows you to see the tabs vertically. Perhaps it’s available on other browsers, but I haven’t seen it.

Disclaimer: My Taskbar is vertical as well.

On things you don’t need to know but I’m going to tell anyway, I’m a bit sad b/c our current income is not enough to buy the house 🏠 my wife (and I) desire.

I need a better income next year 😬 #freelancingIsHard

@prologic@twtxt.net we talked about that idea on Gitea, but we were going to ask people how useful they feel it is…

@markwylde@twtxt.net I have a single account on @eaplmx@twtxt.net
I have 3 on Twitter and 1 on Mastadon, but here I don’t see the point of having multiple accounts or many accounts on multiple pods 🤔

Just to know, what would it be a standalone app? A mobile app?

I wonder how you guys manage to do so much with a full-day job, kids, and such. My respects, as always :)

The installer is not working with ZSH but the script seems to work fine…

This is amazing BTW

does it work with ZSH?

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net I used this one https://github.com/chubin/wttr.in for a few years
But the script you sent looks much better!

I got to say I don’t check the weather anymore unless I’m going to travel, I disabled any widget on Win and Xubuntu… Anyways, I’ll try that script, thanks for sharing!

@koelopog16@yn.vern.cc
a) Yes
b) For sure
c) Please add FIDO2/Passkeys for hipster purposes

@prologic@twtxt.net I have implemented TOTP on Python and PHP (and a decade ago on Java J2ME), if any of you need help with the UX @ me in the issue.

@marado@tilde.pt I’m serving my twtxt in Spanish on Gemini as well, and perhaps we could serve Yarn/twtxt.net on a proxy.

I like that the ‘protocol’ goes beyond federalization and it’s mostly decentralized, with some inherent disadvantages like discoverability, so you can federate it, have pods, instances, directories and such. I’m missing some interoperation like on ActivityPub but not having it is a kind of feature.

For me is like a self hosted blog with RSS.

I guess it’s a good time to buy (or make) a Season Clock ⏰

Mentioned almost at the end here:
https://text.eapl.mx/my-favourite-strange-clocks

@movq@www.uninformativ.de interesting! I haven’t seen these customized calendars here but sounds like a great gift for my family, my mother is fan of tearing off calendar sheets every day 🗓️

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci damn, not even 5!

Here with the new timezone (moved from MT to CT, and DST no more 🥳) we have this 🌞

Not that bad I think, I guess it would be 5.15 with the previous time
