This was built over a day or so as a tool so i didn’t have to keep helping my neighbor with fixing a Bash script I wrote 🤣 It was also an excuse to try Beer CSS and htmx for real in anger on a fresh new project 👌 The result has turned out quite nicely! 😍

In-reply-to » Windows 11 is Now Automatically Enabling OneDrive Folder Backup Without Asking Permission An anonymous reader shares a report: Microsoft has made OneDrive slightly more annoying for Windows 11 users. Quietly and without any announcement, the company changed Windows 11's initial setup so that it could turn on the automatic folder backup without asking for it. Now, those setting up a new W ... ⌘ Read more

So Belong (out retail mobile phone provider of choice), who are owned by Telstra want to increase the price of their plans by +40%.

Telstra, who own Belong, have had the following financial earnings over the past 4 years:

  • FY2021: NPAT (Net Profit After Tax): +3.4% $1.9B
  • FY2022: NPAT (Net Profit After Tax): -4.6% $1.8B
  • FY2023: NPAT (Net Profit After Tax): +13.1% $2.1B
  • FY2024: NPAT (Net Profit After Tax): +11.4% $1B

Not sure how this year’s results had a +11.4% increase, but only $1B in profits.

In-reply-to » @prologic, found a markdown rendering bug. See parent, specifically awesome, which isn't rendering right.

Oh I don’t think this is a bug! You’ve used a weird kind of -- that’s been turned into something I’ve forgotten the name of 🤦‍♂️ a – Although I still consider this a bug with the Markdown library somewhat, I’ll file a bug report upstream.

I recently learned that our Australian Liberal National Party, spent 10’s of thousands of dollars on a campaign involving flyers posted around the suburbs (localities) of our local Greens federal member, Elizabeth Watson Brown. Not only was the material produced by the LNP party, distributed and paid for by the LNP party, full of lies, but they had the audacity to make the “flyers” appear as though they were from the Greens themselves! 🤦‍♂️ wtf?! #Politics #Sucks

In-reply-to » In case of conflict, consider users over authors over implementors over specifiers over theoretical purity.

I like this quote. I also like a new term I’ve learned recently called “Complexity Budget”.

In-reply-to » Something odd I have been noticing. Occasionally, when I come to twtxt.net on mobile, the keyboard comes up but there is nothing to type. There is some code left behind from the old onfocus that’s causing this, I gather.

Should be fixed now.

@bender@twtxt.net Well it was good to talk to you briefly! 😍 I’m a gonna have to hit the hay though, It’s 1.30am here now 🤣 I guess it was just you/me, but it was an interesting discussion on how we might solve for edits across the Twtxt/yarn ecosystem 🤞

That’s a bit better now… But do we want the textarea focused when you toggle the postbox open? 🤔

@bender@twtxt.net I can see in the templates that autofocus="true" has always been the case (the template for the postbox has conditional logic) for Timeline, Discover and Mention views. There are like one or two views where it is set to false. So hmmm I’m not sure wtf I was thinking back then 🤔 How should it behave?

@bender@twtxt.net I noticed that too. But I couldn’t remember whether that was a preexisting behavior or not. So hmmmm

In-reply-to » @bender Nothing that isn't already a known side effect. Really it is up to clients to figure this out and have storage or caching mechanisms that can cope with diverging threads.

@bender@twtxt.net This is true! (as we spoke!) It’s okay though, I think we’ll eventually solve this as it becomes a thing that annoys us too much 🤣 I like your idea of having some optional, but recommended of handling edits. Like having something like (#d4acmcq was:zllu75a) just for an example. Extending the Subject Extension to support (#hash [was:<hash>])? 🤔

Just added support for deleting and editing arbitrary Twt(s) at anypoint in your timeline. Some things to note:

  • I’m not really that happy with the code between PostHandler() and DeleteTwtHandler() anymore 😢 It really needs some major refactoring, and better tests.
  • This only works for users (for now), no support for Persona(s) / Feeds sorry.

One side-effect I’ve noticed (which was always the case); an Edited Twt whilst preserves the original timestamp, gets appended to your feed at the bottom of the file. This is counter intuitive when you think about editing text files with a text editor, but it does make sense in the way yarnd treats feeds as append-only (I had just forgotten). I’m not doing anything about this though.

In-reply-to » @prologic hey mate, all working well here so far. The login issue isn't really an issue as far as actually logging in goes, rather if I get my password wrong it gives the response error code in console, the response of which contains the HTML for the wrong password page if you inspect it, but on the frontend itself nothing actually happens which is the confusion. Just stays on the login page as if it was never submitted. Am I alone in having this issue as well?

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Fixed!
