@bender@twtxt.net Sounds good!

@bender@twtxt.net I usually am actually 🤣 Only way to improve things is to “dog food” right?! 😅

Err I meant @bender@twtxt.net and I (Mobile app doesn’t have auto-complete for @-mentions 🤦‍♂️🥲😢)

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yeah we use the Unicode new line character to represent “new lines”

@bendwr and I discussing something along the lines of:

I.e: How to deal with or reduce noise from legacy feeds.

@bender@twtxt.net Yea it does 👌

@bender@twtxt.net Fair enough 👌

Hey @marado@twtxt.net Just checking in to see id you still use twtxt or?

Is the server setting the right content encoding?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com I’ve also been using pass/gopass for years now and loce it 👌

@bender@twtxt.net You’re welcome 🤣

Been clearing out my pod a bit and blocking unwanted domains that are basically either a) just noise and/or b) are just 1-way (whose authors never reply or are otherwise unaware of the larger ecosystem)

Let me know if y’all have any other candidates you’d like me to add to the blocked domain list?

@bender@anthony.buc.ci Ahh, well it should support mult-line, pretty sure it does

Renders like this:

Are you playing around with the Multi Line Extension? I’m not really sure what client you’re using, but in most modern clients, we support multi-lines. e.g:

• This is a line
  
• This is another line.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com It depends 🤣

</> htmx - high power tools for html really liking the idea of htmx 🤔 If I don’t have to learn all this complicated TypeScript/React/NPM garbage, I can just write regular SSA (Server-Side-Apps) and then progressively upgrade to SPA (Single-Page-App) using htmx hmmm 🧐

@bender@twtxt.net Thanks! This is helpful 🙇‍♂️

Sure did! 😅

See so discovery does work 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Oh wow! We have new blood 🤣 Welcome @aelaraji@aelaraji.com 👋

I’m open to other suggestions? Maybe a service that can provide a an altcoin payment method and gateway as a service? 🤔

@mckinley@twtxt.net That may be true. I tried some “decentralized exchanges” but I have issue with “trust” so this is proving to be quite hard to figure out how to support accepting XMR as a “payment method” 🤔

So turns out the following are banned in Australia

DASH, XMR or ZEC.

@bender@twtxt.net Thank you ! 🙇‍♂️

Looks like his feed occasionally has problems too :/

@bender@twtxt.net Agree maybe it’s time to rethink the data stored here, I’ve been leaning towards this anyway over the past year or so.

I dunno what to say, but the Twt @movq@www.uninformativ.de replied to #cjlg4da just isn’t there. I can see it in @johanbove@johanbove.info ’s feed

$ ./yarnc stats https://johanbove.info/twtxt.txt | grep cjlg4da
  1 : (#cjlg4da)

But neither my pod nor the search engine ever ingested it. Hmm? Without modifying the tools I’m not even sure which Twt it was.

@darren@twtxt.net The few always spoil it for the many 😢

I agree with your sentiment 👌

Hmmmm

Monero, a privacy-focused cryptocurrency, is not illegal globally but is banned in some countries due to its potential use in illicit activities. Countries like Dubai, Japan, South Korea, and Australia have either banned or recommended a ban on privacy coins like Monero.23 Oct 2023

That’s not good 😌

If I try and get a PoC up and running that’s useful enough, any takers? I mean c’mon it’ll only cost you $0.15-$0.20 🤣

Interesting. Good to see I’ll have competition 😅

@mckinley@twtxt.net And what about some of the other aspects that make Bitcoin awful. Like the stupid instability of it’s fiat conversation price and the stupid amouns of energy it consumes? How does Monero compare?

Ahy is Monaro/XMR considered good / better btw? 🤔

@mckinley@twtxt.net Looks like XMR is much more stable than bloody BTC which is nice 🤣

@mckinley@twtxt.net I was mostly only thinking about use-based. Is there a desire for than this?

@mckinley@twtxt.net Will do! 👌

I think realistically a micro container like this needs to cost the consumer only $0.15/month if at all feasible

@mckinley@twtxt.net Based on your previous comment I think I need to reduce the price to a round $0.20

@mckinley@twtxt.net Yea the idea is micro costs to the consumer. No one really does this, that I know of, which is frustrating if you want to run a few small things without the overhead of a whole server or the operational efforts.

Yeah could
be 🤔 Juat experimenting with what’s possible 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de You are right, I do! But I work remotely for a bank where most of it’s employees live/work in the state of Victoria, so there 🙄

@mckinley@twtxt.net Most little web apps, websites, static sites, whatever run perfectly fine with good performance on just 100mCores, a lot of what I run only has between 100m-500m of CPU allocated to it.

@mckinley@twtxt.net Yup!

Does this sound reasonable for running small workloads? 🤔

$0.50/month for
100 mCores
64 MB Memory
1 GB Storage
1 GB Bandwidth

@pratikbaid3@twtxt.net is looking for a few small projects to add to his contractor/freelance CV and has reached out to me to see if he could do a bit of work on the Yarn.social mobile app. He’s done work before in the past and has done a pretty decent job.

Two projects we’ve discussed:

• Flutter upgrade and cleanup, ensuring the mobile app builds successfully with the latest Flutter (which breaks all the time 🤦‍♂️)
  
• A UI/UX Redesign of the Mobile App with a Bottom Nav Bar layout. This would end up having something like Timeline | Mentioned | Profile – Maybe it could also have “Search” too if I somehow found the time to add an appropriate search endpoint to the API.
  

What do y’all think? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Well it’s screwed with my working hours somewhat, but this year I’ve decided to just “not give a shit”™ and just get up at the normal time and start at the time I had been starting work the past 6 months, 8.30am. In practise it probably means I end up working a bit longer for ½ the year, but oh well, at least I don’t have to fiddle with my alarm clock ⏰

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I immediately thought of this when you asked, because we use eBPF-based tools in Kubernetes clusters. It’s very powerful stuff and you can do a lot very cheaply with it, including tying packets to processes.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I don’t mind the binary size. It’s a taxed odd between size, portability and feature.
