@alexonit@twtxt.alessandrocutolo.it Yeah same 🤣 There’s also this @news-minimalist@feeds.twtxt.net feed that shows up the most important shit™ anyway (when/if that happens).

@bender@twtxt.net Seriously I have zero clue 🤣 I don’t read or watch any news so I have no idea 🤦‍♂️

Did something bad happen in the world today? 🧐

Hello 👋 I’m back!

@bender@twtxt.net Soon soon🤣

@bender@twtxt.net I wish 🤣 Nah work on-site thingy😆

I’m out of town folks and away until tomorrow (have been all week)

@thecanine@twtxt.net Id like that too, it just can’t come from me, because native mobile dev just isn’t my thing 😢

@zvava@twtxt.net And yes yarnd does have a well documented API and two clients (CLI and unmaintained Flutter App)

@zvava@twtxt.net We can do that 👌

@zvava@twtxt.net The first version of what is now yarnd was built over a weekend 😀

@zvava@twtxt.net Herw you go: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtxt.dev/pulls/28

PR is up for review though 🤞

@zvava@twtxt.net we have to amend the spec and increase the hash length. We just haven’t done so yet 😆

Today is a good day! Took my daughter to art class, got a beard trim, wife is awesome and we’re all doing great 🤞🍀

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Pretty sure I have many more mentions in the database than the one and only one I see hmmm 🤔 – I’ll have a look at the code when I can and the SQL query it’s using

@zvava@twtxt.net Yes congrats and well done! Keep going! 🥳

@eric@itsericwoodward.com Congrats 🥳

@zvava@twtxt.net Bit ahrd not to 🤣

@zvava@twtxt.net Been there done that haha 🤣

@zvava@twtxt.net Enjoying it so far? 🤔 😅

@zvava@twtxt.net Hey 👋 Welcome to Yarn.social 🤗

@ionores@twtxt.net Love the new Avatar dude 😅 Very nice! 👍

@dce@hashnix.club Ooops 😅 Hope you still have enough money for the basics 🤗 I’m doing okay though!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Doing okay here 👌

Chances are the database bought wasn’t cheap at all and was aold by some scam company that probably ripped them from six figures or more for a database that’s full of rubbish. 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Right now I’m basically just blocking entire ASN(s) at this point and large blocks of IP(s) from Anthropic, OPenAI, Microsoft and others.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com 👋

Didn’t see that coming 😂

@bender@twtxt.net I’ve been cutting back too 😅 Trying to avoid drinking (with alcohol) 24hr before fixtures (🏓) and before training 🤣

Weekend! Whooo 🤣 Having a few too many glassses of 🍷 listening to music on Youtube and playing Chess which I haven’t been playing much lately 😢

@dce@hashnix.club No worries 😌 It’s all documented in our soecs, it’s not such a common thing that we’ve felt the great need to really solve, we’re aware folks want to sometimes have their feed on several protocols, and that’s totally fine™ 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Very nice colors dude! 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah, we’ve seen how this plays out in practice 🤣 @dce@hashnix.club My advice, do what @movq@www.uninformativ.de has hinted at and don’t change the 1st # url = field in your feed. I’m not sure if you had already, but the first url field is kind of important in your feed as it is used as the “Hashing URI” for threading.

@dce@hashnix.club these are some of the same reasons that I enjoy Yarn.social/Twtxt 🙌

@dce@hashnix.club Twet is a far better command line client. Yea 👌

@dce@hashnix.club I feel you 🤗

@dce@hashnix.club Hello! 👋 Welcome! 🤗

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I’m worried about this too. What’s the systemic problem at paay here? Capitalism at it’s extreme? 🤔

To combat malware and financial scams, Google announced today that only apps from developers that have undergone verification can be installed on certified Android devices starting in 2026.

This requirement applies to “certified Android devices” that have Play Protect and are preloaded with Google apps. The Play Store implemented similar requirements in 2023, but Google is now mandating this for all install methods, including third-party app stores and sideloading where you download an APK file from a third-party source.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de TL;DR? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I just got a bit curious after watching your video and reading your OP 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha yeah rightio, and yeah inches suck 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de What do you define as “expensive”? 🤔 (I’ve always thought of modern-day painters as a “rip”, and the ink my god 🤯)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Is there like a TL;DR of this standard? I can’t say I remember this tbh 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Got a link to this

ESC/P standard.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Are you sure?

because there is virtually no market for these devices anymore, meaning new ones are very, very expensive.

I think dot matrix printers are still pretty common in many Point of Sales (POS) registers right? At least here in AU they’re very common. I had a quick look myself today, there seems to be quite a solid market for these types of printers. In fact even EPSON still sell Dot Matrix printers themselves 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Kind of curious now… Is there a (to buy new) dot matrix printer you’d recommend if someone wanted to get into this sort of thing (sending plain ‘ol bytes to a printer port)? 🤔 (I remember this back in the ye ‘old days!)

@twtxtory@twtxtory.adn.org.es it is designed that way on purpose 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de wut da fuq?! 🤯

@thecanine@twtxt.net Haha I thought myself there might ahve been too many pixels on the tail, but I’m no expert in this field 🤣 It’s still a nice canine though! 👌

@thecanine@twtxt.net My daughter (who is pretty good already at art and only 10 :D) says this looks like a “blob” 🤣 I tried to explain to her that this is pixel art, but I’m not quite sure she has the same appreciation (yet) 😅

@eric@itsericwoodward.com Name change is no worries! 😉 Interesting/funnily enough my client yarnd seems to have picked it up automatically which is nice (I’ve historically always had a few bugs to iron out there 🤣)

@itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Also just a heads up, GIF(s) aren’t supproted as an Avatar type on yarnd (what runs twtxt.net). I’d change this to something that’s more supproted like PNG, JPEG, etc.

@eric@itsericwoodward.com I prefer to call what we’ve built here really an “ecosystem”. A network isn’t really an apt description. Twtxt/Yarn is arguably IMO the purest decentralised non-social social media ecosystem I think in existence today 🤣

@xuu@txt.sour.is Your ingress is via some kind of tunnelling too right?

@bender@twtxt.net This one: https://n8n.andros.dev/webhook/f0cfd6a6-60c8-4183-a26d-120bbd25a046

@eric@itsericwoodward.com Sure i! Welcome! 🤗

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club Haha, yeah well “thinking” isn’t really something we even know how to define, let alone simulate 🤣

But maybe, just maybe this is why they’re pushing so hard to have this “Age Verification” bullshit. So they can then shut people down like me that routinely “speak up” and “against the status quo”. Bend over backwards? I think not! Assholes 🤣

I realize I’m a nobody, and no-one will care or listen. But to the various UK, EU and AU politicians pushing for this “Online Safety Act” bullshit…. You’re all fucking utter morons! I can’t wait for the backflash of what will come next. Idiots.

@bender@twtxt.net It was 🤣

Today I finally got rid of my /29 IPv4 subnet with my ISP used to power my ingress. No longer.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de No one would figure out how to :q! ? 🤣

This whole Age Verification that’s being rolled out in the UK, AU and parts of the EU is totally fucking bullshit. Death to the Online Safety Act.

@jost@jost.sdfeu.org Yeah replying is pretty easy if you see the first reply. Just preserve the so-called “Subject” 🤣

@jost@jost.sdfeu.org Hey 👋

@kiwu@twtxt.net Congrats 🥳

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Any time 😅

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Here’s the full config I use.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Cool! 😎 Yeah I’ll add that soon™

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh sweet! I was gonna say, setting up those rules is a bit “complicated” 🤣 But I’m glad you worked it out! 👌

Hello @jassim@twtxt.net 👋

There is a missing feature I’ve been intending to add to though, which is that any link that looks like a URL that might be an image, for example, ends with .png or .jpg or whatever, we should just render that as an image and not expect users to wrap it in Markdown image links ![](...)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ahh what do you mean by images don’t embed? They definitely should! By default however all domains are blocked, so you might want to either allow some domains or just put in a .* entry to allow all/any domsins. Screenshot attached

@arne@uplegger.eu LOl that’s hilarious 😂

@kiwu@twtxt.net Hi!!!!!!!!! 😆 Welxome! 🙇‍♀️

@important_dev_news@n8n.andros.dev Oh gawd, is the EU doing this “age verification” bullshit too!? Not just Australia?! 🇦🇺 Farrrrk!!!!! Help!!!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Just do it 🤣 I do this daily for work. It’s great!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Don’t worry, this hype will end as quickly as the last one haha 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Sounds about right 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha 😆 But OTOH not nearly as much as you think. Plus you get to build what you want!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org A web app called Floor Plan Creator

Been mucking around with designing my own camper (floor plan).

@bender@twtxt.net Haha 🤣

Global update: Trump in Scotland says EU trade deal has 50-50 chance as tariff row grows. Gaza sees 9 more starvation deaths (122 total); UN says famine is deliberate. Thai-Cambodia clashes kill 16, displace 135k. US raid in Syria kills top ISIS leader & sons.

To be honest though, for a mid-range and moderately priced truck, even though it’s made in China (what isn’t?!), it’s actually a very nice truck.

@bender@twtxt.net I plan to trade it in within it’s warranty period 🤣 It has 7yr warrants on everything, I said to the dealer, I’ll see you in 5 🤣

Our truck can comfortably tow 3T (its rated for 3.5T but I’m trying to keep a fair bit of buffer and headroom all-round).

@bender@twtxt.net That was one of the inputs into my research 🧐 So that’s already factored in. We bought our new truck (2025 GWM Canon) recently to replace the ‘ol 2nd hand Nissan Navara we bought that just had too many things go wrong with it, and I don’t have time or energy to learn to be a diesel mechanic haha 🤣 – So yes, the SCT-16 has a Tare (unladen weight) of 2150Kg and a maximum legal (ATM) weight of 2,800Kg.

After many weeks and probably at least a hundred hours of research, discussions and in-person viewing, I think I’ve finally come up with my Final Choices (shortlist) of a Hybrid Camper / Caravan that I think will suit my family and that I’ll enjoy (far less work for me to setup and teardown). The one at the top of the list I’m leaning towards os the SWAG SCT16 Family 4B

Image

@bender@twtxt.net Yes! You guys have this thing called a “5th wheeler” 🤣 We (Aussies) just don’t normally have big enough trucks to drag those “House on wheels” though 😅

Discover the OPUS OP4 TLX: The Perfect off-road Camper for Families Kind of thinking about this now hmmm 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Nice! 👍

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Haha 🤣

@bender@twtxt.net are they really though when you factor in the weaker AUD? 🧐

Been spending a lot of time researching campers as I want to / plan to upgrade our current Camper Trailoer (forward fold) Stoney Creek XL-FF6 to a slightly larger Hybrid Camper/Caravan with ensuite, internal kitchenette, external full hitchen, pop-top roof and twin bunks.

This is the summary and whittling down of my research so far: https://wiki.mills.io/s/1103bc9c-dd75-4a98-b64b-8dadc5b0e51f/doc/comparision-Ln03Moiibq

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ok 👌

@movq@www.uninformativ.de This is a really good example of “simplicity” but achieves the intent and goals 👌

(Now, I don’t know if your screen reader can work with this. Let me know if it doesn’t.)

I don’t use a screen reader fortunately (actually they’re pretty garbage). So all good 👍 (I juse use full-screen zoom).

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nice shot! 😳
