@movq@www.uninformativ.de I bet. I wouldn’t be surprised if it more popular in some Discord servers too. I mean, the event itself is quite obscure, so… yeah.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com good luck with that! Their installation requirements, and install document in general give me headache. While on the contemplating topic, I too am contemplating shutting down my ActivityPub altogether. No GoToSocial, no nothing. I am mostly a lurker, so will not miss it much.

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe I don’t know about you, but I completely missed the point. Heck, I didn’t even know there was one, until you mentioned it. Nah, he’s got no point. LOL.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org no wonder I picked that cake (albeit coincidentally), I adore almonds, and hazelnuts! Your teammates are absolutely amazing, dude! A very nice project farewell! On leaving places I have a small anecdote.

I know someone who on 3 February 2004 left his job to go elsewhere. At the time his teammates threw a party, and gave him a very nice portable storage. Twenty days later, he returned, and jokingly they asked him for the storage, and money spent on farewell party back. I heard, from a close source, that he gave them his middle finger, but don’t quote me on that. 😂😂😂

@prologic@twtxt.net dayum! Australians truly know how to vacay! 🥳

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org what’s on the one on the left, back? Looks… enticing! 🤤

That’s Bảo Tháp of the Trấn Quốc Pagoda, on a small island near the southeastern shore of West Lake (Hồ Tây), in Hanoi. Oldest Buddhist pagoda in Hanoi.

@prologic@twtxt.net maybe they should dedicate one of their advent days to make sure their site is responsive. 😂

I see beer, and I upvote. I see “amazinf” beer, and I am thirsty already, and it’s not even 07:00! 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net pretty neat looking boat. We don’t see boats like this around here. It looks to be made specifically to resemble an older boat.

@prologic@twtxt.net pretty cool! I like these, wish there was a way (I am sure there is, but not for tourists) to go to the top. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net don’t seek the problems. If they exist, they will show at your doorstep. Hahahaha! Anyway, shame on me, I should be sleeping, so I ought to.

@prologic@twtxt.net not every twtxt expects engagement. 😅

@kingdomcome@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I want to see them too! 🙈

@movq@www.uninformativ.de your reply got me almost ROFLMAO IRL. It drew a laudable laugh, for sure! 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net geez, a simple “I don’t wanna” would suffice. 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yeah, you fetched it too quickly, it was edited seconds after picking the wrong image. LOL. Which brings us back in a whole, huge circle, to twtxt edits, and how to handle them. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I see problems with that, yes. Case in point:

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, it is only Manton (with which I don’t see eye to eye) for now. I am simply anticipating the issue, rather than experiencing it fully right now. If efforts continue on this direction, you see what I am writing about, right?

@kiwu@twtxt.net I see. I have no experience on the matter, sadly. :-( I am sure you can find plenty of recommendations online. Beware of anything below $100 (you will find plenty of cheap, but they are, indeed, cheap in the whole sense of the word). I’d say, a decent one will start around $250-$300, and up.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Gemini agrees. :-)

As someone that almost exclusively uses “Discover”, that is. If you do use it like I do, you know I mean.

Ah, the collateral damage of ActivityPub bridges…

@kiwu@twtxt.net at what price range are you looking to keep your expenses? A mobile phone camera doesn’t cut it?

Of course, he could forget all about it, and be happier anyway. 🤣

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe there you go! What I am trying to say is, if @prologic@twtxt.net truly wants to be able to diagnose something as difficult to diagnose as ActivityPub, he ought to run his own. There is no workaround.

@prologic@twtxt.net I am telling you that is extremely easy: https://docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/advanced/host-account-domain/. Now, if you are putting into account your rather… unique setup, then that’s another story.

@prologic@twtxt.net I will share later my GoToSocial 10 lines (or less) config.yaml, and 4 lines Caddyfile, and you will see how easy it is.

@prologic@twtxt.net it would have been so much easy to run your own. I guess we all like to suffer every once and then, and this time is your turn. 😅

@zvava@twtxt.net I am waiting for that v1, so that I can start using it. 🙏🏻

@prologic@twtxt.net what’s that?

@yarn_police@twtxt.net good thing we got law and order around here. And I mean, literally! 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net oh man, I envy you. I want an Asian vacation (Japan 😍) so badly!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de looks good to me! 🎉

One can tell holidays are abound; even twtxt slows down to almost a halt.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org ugh, well, there goes my thought.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I think you will like this one: https://gibberifier.com/

@movq@www.uninformativ.de “resistance is futile, you will be assimilated”. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de pinging @zvava@twtxt.net, on your behalf. And @falsifian@www.falsifian.org.

@xuu@txt.sour.is when it is extremely important to be the very best at everything, nothing can be left behind. Not even a piss drinking contest!

@prologic@twtxt.net counter that you would only work remote.

@kiwu@twtxt.net there, there. Hoping it gets better or… less rough!

17, 21, and 22 are my favourites. Thank you for sharing! On 17, the pulley might be dangerously hanging, but if you manage to make it work, you will have a couple of nails to use! :-D

@prologic@twtxt.net you take a look at it, see if it is a good fit, ask the headhunter more details about it, and the company they represent for this hire, bring the results clearly, simply stated, but without missing any information to your CFO (AKA wife), and then arrive at a decision as a family.

Don’t let the temptation of more compensation be the driving factor.

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, all eggs in one basket has never been a sensible approach. Sadly, even without that, this outage is affecting many due to the interconnected nature of services these days.

@prologic@twtxt.net Mastocoooooooon!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org wow, 31 is truly a telling! Interesting facade on that building on 10! And that roof on 51, oh my! The golden Jesus and tower on 7 are something else too.

I miss Europe like hell, mate! A lot of things around here are younger than me. I don’t feel history, I am history. 😅

On “family day”, I was expecting to see more pictures with people in it. All lovely, nevertheless. Thanks, as always, for the mini-vacation! 🙈

@prologic@twtxt.net honestly, I though it was a nail at first. Like this, but bent. LOL.

@prologic@twtxt.net this one? https://twtxt.dev/assets/img/twtxt-logo.svg Other than being “circlish” I don’t see any relationship. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net I prefer something like the logo on https://twtxt.dev, for example, instead. But hey, it is your pod, have fun!

Is it April fools already?! 😅😂

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org the English dub is fairly good. Will watch!

@prologic@twtxt.net no, I really meant small. I only have a handful of GiBs left of storage. If you can wait until mid-December, then no probleml. Right now it is kind of running on fumes. For testing, and to do not disturb anyone timelines, I recommend you run a small test instance. Running GtS is easier than running Yarn, by the way. Word.

@prologic@twtxt.net ah, yes, one of those, yes. Too small for testing though. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net not Mastodon, nope.

@prologic@twtxt.net the worse case scenario is your account gets blocked/banned. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net just create an account on mastodon.social, wouldn’t that work?

@prologic@twtxt.net we are not going to get far by blaming the other side. 😅😂

@prologic@twtxt.net oh dear god. Keep us posted! 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net how could we ignore it?! Twtxt bridge? Of what kind? Say more! :-P

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org then it was, most likely, space debris—which, sadly, make up for 98% of all space anomalies these days. And thought they have applied to the Grant Wishes Council, they are yet to be approved. Keep playing, though. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I hope you were prepared to cram those wishes in 3 seconds. I am always prepared for that eventuality. You don’t have to mutter a word, nor clearly think much about it—that is, you don’t need to think your wish(es) word-by-word. As long as you stay within the wish(es) main goal(s), you should be fine, and it/they shall be granted, of course.

@kiwu@twtxt.net is it almost over, or just got closer to the next one? 🧩

@kiwu@twtxt.net doing awesome, how about ya? We are having some coolish days, which are super rare, so I am enjoying them plenty!

@prologic@twtxt.net 🎉, what did you do? Details, details!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org nginx allows logging per user, via using defined variables on configuration. Not sure, though, if a Tilde would be willing to go to those “extremes”.

Hmm, so it seems this Mike is the one who inherited it: https://tilde.club/~deepend/, but not too active anywhere, though pinging “deepend” on Libera might work…

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org was it? Hmm, am I back to square one? 😅 Contacting one tilde could be a step ahead, but there are so many…!

@prologic@twtxt.net I found it for you. It is ford@ftrain.com.

I mean, granting everyone read access, maybe?

@prologic@twtxt.net that would certainly help a lot. I can’t think of a solution, though.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de they know it is perk worth paying for. Hahahaha!

It is harder to regain ownership of an IRC channel than crossing the Mexico/US border. 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net just store and host. All modern browsers render WebP just fine.

@prologic@twtxt.net well, uploading and rendering, yes. Not a priority, of course. Just an item for a list somewhere.

@xuu@txt.sour.is as long as I see you on IRC, bouncer or not, I don’t worry. Weird, isn’t it? Glad you are OK, Winter’s coming!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de what do you use? Is it plus-aliased emails? I am curious to know how others are accomplishing this. I am currently using the “Hide my Email” feature, from iCloud.

Oh, and I forgot (because I thought it was obvious, my bad), set a nick, and a url at the very minimum on your feed. See “Metadata Extension”.

Not too important, but an item on a wish list: add support for WebP? I had to convert the animated WebP to GIF.

@threatcat@tilde.club unwritten etiquette (by me, and for me, but one can hope, right?).

• Proper grammar (in any language).
  
• Correct capitalisation, and punctuation.
  
• Subject extension support.
  

Anything else doesn’t matter. ☺️

@prologic@twtxt.net all I can say or, rather, express is…

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org an advent of code, I love it! Go, Lyse, go!

@prologic@twtxt.net a good DR plan must be tested at least once a year. ☺️

@prologic@twtxt.net nothing to be sorry about. It gave me time to watch TV with kids! 🤭

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club yay!

Oh, and happy belated birthday! 🎂🥳

Also, did you intended for the page title to be simply “home”?

@thecanine@twtxt.net looks good! Was the use of asterisks instead of <li> a concerted choice (it doesn’t look intended, but I might be wrong)? With CSS you can replace bullets on lists with whatever you want.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de my apologies if I crossed some lines, I only meant it as a friendly engagement (which, all aside, was achieved!). Thank you for sharing your thoughts; please know that I appreciate them.

This brings a thought I had for a long time, why can’t we upload arbitrary files to a twtxt? If not an image, make it simply a link. I could have used such feature to upload the text.

@prologic@twtxt.net when I first “fed” the text to Gemini, I asked for a three paragraphs summary. It provided it. Then I asked to “elaborate on three areas: user experience, moral/political impact, and technical/legal concerns”. The reply to that is too long for a twtxt.

I then asked to counter the OP opinions—as in “how would you counter the author’s opinion?”. The reply was very long, but started like this:

“That’s an excellent question, as the post lays out some very strong, well-reasoned criticisms. Countering these points requires acknowledging the valid concerns while presenting a perspective focused on mitigation, responsible integration, and the unique benefits of AI.”

What followed was extensive, so I asked for a summary, which didn’t do justice to the wall of text that preceded it.

@prologic@twtxt.net hehehe, yeah, it isn’t mine neither. Most obscure TLDs are in small registrars. I like to stick to one register (even though when Google Domains ceased to exist I was forced to have two, as Cloudflare doesn’t support the .ONE TLD).

@prologic@twtxt.net save your coins! :-D

@prologic@twtxt.net it looks made with good taste, which I appreciate. Developer’s site address is cool, https://tiago.zip. I didn’t know one could rent a ZIP TLD.

@prologic@twtxt.net never heard of it before. I wouldn’t call lightweight to anything that needs Docker to run, though. 😅

Bavaria is moving to the Microsoft cloud: The state government intends to conclude a contract with the US corporation by the end of the year for the use of the cloud office package Microsoft 365.

Source: https://www.heise.de/en/news/Bavaria-wants-to-move-to-Microsoft-cloud-by-year-end-11066929.html

🎉🎉🎉

@prologic@twtxt.net that poke will go no where. It is 502d. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de this I find more worrisome, and saw no mention of it on your text: Right-Wing Chatbots Turbocharge America’s Political and Cultural Wars (gift article).

Enoch, one of the newer chatbots powered by artificial intelligence, promises “to ‘mind wipe’ the pro-pharma bias” from its answers. Another, Arya, produces content based on instructions that tell it to be an “unapologetic right-wing nationalist Christian A.I. model.”

@movq@www.uninformativ.de LOL.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de using gopher also limits tenth fold the amount of bystanders you will get. I think a finger .plan would probably have a bigger audience. :-D :-P
