I donāt remember who was looking for a way to block A.I bots/scrappers. But hereās an article by Cloudflare āDeclare your AIndependence: block AI bots, scrapers and crawlers with a single clickā offering a way to do so even for the ones spoofing their User-Agent and such.
Eyes on logsā¦ Waiting for the first s-kiddo to knock on my door. Got a Huge treat, just for them. *wink*
@prologic@twtxt.net Watched that one the other day after seeing that much chatter about #HTMX on the feed. And now Iām watching HTMX Sucks - Youtube by the same person (or should I say people?) š
Definitely have! Oups!
I have finally migrated my Jenny/Mutt setup to the other machine, Yey!
Iām still alive ! Hereās a quick, brainless recap dump before I switch back to the other side:
- Been daily driving FreeBSD on the o(ther)ld machine for the last couple of days.
- Read through the handbook, played around with jails, pulled on my hair because of network issues (I think I might have maybe fixed that) ā¦ etc.
- Still procrastinating over migrating my Jenny/Mutt setup out there. until then, Iāll be getting my Twtxt fix reading through conversations over on the twtxt.net ā
- Gave a couple of Nostr based platforms a try, it was ā¦ not for me to say the least.
- Started learning Emacs (I know, Iām in trouble LOL) and might even start twtinā from there instead.
Hello @bmallred@staystrong.run I hope youāre doing well.
I dunno if itās normal, but it seems like I am unable to access your twtxt.tx fileā¦ š
Holly insert inappropriate word here
! š¤£ I have finally done it !!!
FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE (GENERIC) #0 releng/14.0-n265380-f9716eee8ab4: Fri Nov 10 05:57:23 UTC 2023
Welcome to FreeBSD!
% pkg update
The package management tool is not yet installed on your system.
Do you want to fetch and install it now? [y/N]:
ā¦ So itās gonna be either a:
- Find a way to do a Chroot install a la Chad Arch Linux way, on a portion of the disk space while Iām Ssh-ing in and then whip out the old debian installation if all goes well.
- or a YOLO automated/unattended install.
Either way, Iām ready to deal with the eff up! Because Iāve never done none of that beforeā¦ š
Whatās all of this about? one may askā¦
Well Iāve been itching to toy around with a BSD on actual hardware and away from the comfort of VMs. NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSDā¦ It doesnāt matter. I just want to āMake it feelā¦ Make it feel alive AGAIN!ā
Iāve ripped off itās GPU about a year ago to rescue another computer ā¦ Now Iām stuck with only SSH to play with it. Since it came with just a VGA port for display and my monitor takes all but THAT!
Planning a file back up from an old machine thatās been sitting in the corner gathering dustā¦ Because I know ! Iām about to eff it up, BIIIIG Time ! š
@prologic@twtxt.net Awesome! I guess that fixed it. Unless @bender@twtxt.net sees otherwise LOL.
p.s: Broken mentions again?
This is a test twt to see if :set formatoptions-=t
in vim would stop the annoying line breaking Iāve been having in my twtsā¦ And I guess, thatās it! Things are looking OK on my end.
How about if I add in a separate paragraph like this one? Did hit return twice for it. I hope it isnāt breaking anything else.
Well! My 24 hrs without a GUI Web browser was quite of a nice experience.
As a matter of fact, and as long as Iām not doing any 3D work, I kind of donāt need gui applications as much as it feels like.
Even though, a couple of websites asked me to eff off because they need
JavaScript to work. Some others handed me a cold ā402 Upgrade Requiredā client
error responseā¦ (LOL letās not even talk about how Github repos looked
and felt like). I have managed to fix a couple of things Iāve been meaning to
for quite some time but never got, mainly to because of my browsing
habits. I tend to open a lot of tabs, read some, get distracted then
open some more and down the rabbit hole (or shall I say tabs) I go.
All in all, it was quite a nice experience.
How nice? It was an āIām dropping into a full TTY experience for another
24 hrsā kind of nice!
Although, I miss using a mouse already, but hey, I would have never
heard about gpm(8) otherwise.
I guess Iām not missing my GUI Web Browser yet. In fact, I think Iām enjoying this. š
I might even drop to TTY to try stuff I read about earlier today.

Do you believe one can survive surfing the web using a text-based web browser? (i.e: Lynx or W3m) no CSS no Bling for at least 24 hours š²
@bender@twtxt.net well there is āsupercalifragilisticexpialidociousā!
I usualy hear people ask Harry Mack (a freestyle rapper) to include it in his freestyles. š
I have finally decided on creating a properā¦ (landing page?) home page or whatever it is for my domain name.
It has been the same eye soar of a blank white page for years now.
And this, is when I had something I wanted to toy with in the background,
otherwise, which is most of the time, to be precise, It wasnāt pointing at anything at all. š
@bender@twtxt.net Oh, That sounds delicious! BāSaha![1]
Iām Glad youāve had quite the productive! All I remember of mine is three chapters of an old novel at the coffee shop aaand ā¦ Now Iām here, in front of a computer. Everything in between is just Blank š
Itās kinda quiet in here today!
@prologic@twtxt.net Thank
you! and hereās a twt with the said random characters, since Iāve been
cleaning them up manually, earlier before scp-ing my twtxt.txt file. And
maybe a screenshot of how things look in my editor?
Those new lines are added automatically as I type (except for the ones
after the screenshot.
Now Iām about to do something that Mayā¦beā¦ stupid, Iām no dev but
Iāll try and replace the U+201 in the script with a space and see what
happens ā¦
Down the rabbit hole we goā¦ Wee !!
Thanks again @movq@www.uninformativ.de !! I have figured things out and set up Jenny and Vim completion following your blog post! Cheers!
Oh! thank you @movq@www.uninformativ.de and @bender@twtxt.net ! Iāve noticed your replays by chance checking my logs š
Oh, nevermindā¦ it did! Iāve just checked my twtxt.txt file. Now I have to figure out replays š«¤
