From now on, my twtxt feed is gpg signed. I hope this works for everyone.

Hmm. I haven’t used twtxt in a while. How are you doing?

@prologic@twtxt.net why do I see https://twtxt.net/search?tag=d5sj7ba as twtxt source in your tweets? This is not a text file…

Oh this is sad. I’m looking at twtxt again after a while and most of my peers disappeared and I look at a long list of 404 errors.

Oh fun. I was not active on txtnish for a while and now all the feeds are 404 :( I miss you guys…

@lahvak@lahvak.github.io: And a decent base system as well as a decent terminal and decent defaults.

Looks good. Next stop: gopher://hex22.org? :-)

I like the clean and simple design choice. Easy to read and not distracting. Good!

Right there is also burnout and a lack of structure. Beware!

What about int * a?? ;) I struggle more with if(NULL == var) and if(true == var)… more error prone, because missing one “=” won’t assing anything. But it looks odd to my eye.

Today I was looking for a place where I can buy nonDRM digital movies. There is none.

Same for chrome: start with –enable-features=WebUIDarkMode –force-dark-mode and set classic theme

Firefox: about:config -> create integer key ui.systemUsesDarkTheme = 1 -> Dark Mode enabled! Check my website with and without…

Oh sweet! There is a twtxt directory at http://twtxt.xyz

I had some time while compiling and so I wrote a name generator https://codevoid.de/idgen

Huh?! I bombed myself! Allocating 1GB to gzip and send it to the evil bot didn’t sound too wrong. But I forgot that the script runs in parallel for each request… BOOM!

@lucidiot@tilde.town I had this idea. I can probably just set the gz header and send gzip. The request is ending up in a cgi script written in C, which assemples the response. I can do pretty much everything there…

@gbmor@gbmor.dev Your certificate has expired…

I have trouble with a web crawler using the TOR network. It’s misusing the gopher proxy on my page. I don’t want to disable/block tor (that would be the easy way out). It’s permanently changing user agents and ignoring robots.txt. It ignores HTTP status codes. I’m currently serving it 4MB binary garbage in form of Link. It sucked in about 40GB of data now, but it doesn’t explode and keeps crawling. Any other idea about what to do with it?

@tx@shroom.party I have a Dyson V7 Cordless Cleaner and I have to say, this was the best purchase I made in the recent years.

Btw. there is a nice BBS reachable via telnet gopher.su 1234 (Extra Plus: It’s running on a Playstation 3)

@tw hahaha <3

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net: Have you ever looked at pfsense? Once I started, I never touched a DD-WRT again.

@von@tilde.town: I stole the idea from a random webpage that listed a finger address for contact information. I would assume it’s pretty effective against spam ;)

I’ve set up a fingerd on my domain. I’ve not had that much fun for quite a while… feel free to finger sex@ dick@ butt@ touch@ root@. The real one is finger@.

wow, richtig gut, das: https://github.com/trizen/youtube-viewer (yt cli client #perl)

Phew - server migration completed. What a journey…

It is way too hot today. And I have my laptop on my lap, which is also hot. So I put another laptop between my laptop and my lap.

Is it weird that I just want to hang around with some folks and discuss sysctl(2) over a beer or two?

I need to find OpenBSD and C-developers in my area. I feel lonely and stuck way too often. And I feel annoyed by every event here being targeted at linux beginner folks.

@metamurks@www.metamurks.org: Also, maybe switch to my https url: https://codevoid.de/tw.txt - txtnish can deal with gopher, but it would always fetch the full file even when nothing has changed (gopher doesn’t support HEAD requests). So https might be faster.

@metamurks@www.metamurks.org: Actually I’m running OpenBSD on APU2 routers, but that would have been to much to explain for the tweet. And OpenWRT is pretty much as good. The APU2 hardware is quite nice compared with what else is out there.

I work in IT, which is the reason our house has: mechanical locks, mechanical windows, routers using OpenWRT, no smart home crap, no Alexa/Google Assistant/…, no internet connected thermostats

@metamurks@www.metamurks.org: CEC is solving one problem and introduces hundreds. Way to complex and overengineered https://github.com/floe/CEC/blob/master/extras/CEC_Specs.pdf

Fundsache: “Ob das Internet in 20 Jahren genauso kommerzialisiert sein wird wie etwa die öffentlich-rechtlichen Fernsehsender (die ursprünglich auch vollkommen ohne Werbung ausgekommen sind), liegt an den Weichen, die jetzt gestellt werden. Wenn das Internet eines Tages nur noch als Träger von Werbung fungiert und große Unternehmen das Angebot bestimmen, sind die Chancen vertan worden, die wir heute haben.” Source: https://events.ccc.de/congress/1994/internet-hype_folgen.html

@kas@enotty.dk: Reg. Gajim: Does setting env. variable GDK_DPI_SCALE=2 help?

@mdosch@mdosch.de: Hmm fgallery relies on javascript, which is something I try to avoid.

@71m@timmorgan.org: why web when it is local? I use sxiv for local browsing and llgal to generate a static gallery from a directory: https://github.com/bgoglin/llgal. If you want something more CGI-ish, you could build it with a few lines of perl: https://metacpan.org/pod/CGI::Application::PhotoGallery

I switched to OpenBSD and it’s nice.

I’m getting used to OpenBSD rather fast. I’s really very consistent and joyful to work with. #openbsd

Not having a CoC is the closest thing to achive what a CoC is supposed to achive.

Dear Manufacturers: Stop putting ultrabright LEDs on everything.

I got a MOTO z2 Force just for LineagueOS and now this damn thing is stubborn: kInstallDeviceOpenError #twrp

@mdom@domgoergen.com metadata is there now. I was one commit behind.

@mdom@domgoergen.com Or limit the the amount and use random 10 followers or so…

@mdom@domgoergen.com did you think about not putting all followers into the twtxt file, but a URL to a follower list? Think performance. If the network grows to 10000 users, you’d have 10000 extra lines in each twtxt file.

@mdom@domgoergen.com Nice! activated

Good Morning #textiverse

dummy tweet to fix my gopher page #wontfix

In other news: I’m doing my first ever diet. I lost 5kg already. No big deal really. Just reduce calories. I don’t understand all that fuss about diets… just eat a little less and stick to it.

As much as I love photography… working on the pictures for hours afterwards wears me out. But ususally the result rewards for everything. So I just keep working…

@mdosch@mdosch.de: Yes. I first thought gopher would be a good protocol for this purpose. But HTTP has the advantage, that you don’t always need to fetch the whole file. You can do a HEAD and check for last-modified header.

@mdosch@mdosch.de: Yes, #txtnish uses curl and can therefore handle all curl supported protocols.

@nblade@nblade.sdf.org: Check my tw.txt file. The specification does not allow a comment. I’ve added this now: 1970-01-01T01:00:00.000000Z▸FF:https://codevoid.de/tw.following.txt. I’d use the special date/time + FF: comment as trigger. This is backwards compatible and shouldn’t really come up in anyones’ timeline.

I just read that more than 140 chars are prohibited per twtxt specification. Oops.

@nblade@nblade.sdf.org: Either that, or provide URL to a follower file: #followfile https://codevoid.de/tw.following.txt

@nblade@nblade.sdf.org: It’s just an idea. Not a clean one thoug, as clients would not know upfront who serves such a fiele and who not. Another idea would ne to mix a number of random followers into the twtxt file, which are updated when a person tweets.

Good night, textuniverse :)

Any thoughts about decentralized ways to discover twtxt users? I’ve set up https://codevoid.de/tw.following.txt which is my following list plus whatever comes in via user-agent. If everybody would set this up with the with an added .following we could fetch each others list and discover users that way.

@metamurks@www.metamurks.org Really? I’m super happy with DDG. But I haven’t heard of searx as of now.

My search forwarder https://codevoid.de/q=%s is now forwarding to the JS version of duckduckgo with a dark theme applied and safe search off. I’ve pretty much set my own preferences to it. If you prefer the html version, you can still just turn JS for DDG off and DDG will forward you. I find the html version totally usable, but it’s not customizable at all.

Nginx rewrites are fun. https://codevoid.de/?this-variable-does-totally-not-matter=cookie

@mdom@domgoergen.com Shall we have an additional twtxt list: we-are-onion.txt? I’m here http://codevoid4p3lowez.onion/?q=twtxt

Migration successful. My page (http version) is now running on gopherproxy-c. Unfortunately not without functionality loss. If you used my site as search engine, you need to replace the smiley with “q”. The redirect is now handled by nginx and nginx can not read emoji variables.

Evil Bobs brand new gopherproxy-c is double as fast as gopherproxy-go. Amazing! (migration is in progress)

I think the cloud is also the ISPs fault. If there would never have been any NAT and async connectivity, the world would be different.

@nblade@nblade.sdf.org Most programmers are just users that are writing/maintaining programs. Most can’t even handle the underlying OS, let alone a Network or a Server.

My twtxt file is now also available without emoji variable: https://codevoid.de/?q=twtxt

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net My take on this is… let’s let people ruin the web. Let centralized services control everything. But let us tech savvy people stick together and provide an alternative space for us. A space that’s welcoming to those that want to join and learn. Maybe people will come over when their online actions show real life consequences. There are statistics about decreasing social media use in Generation Z. Maybe they want to learn from us Internet-Dinosaurs :)

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net This is completely contrary to what people want. People don’t care about how something works. They want to use something that’s premade and that they can use without learning anything about it. Decentralization is a technical Detail, nobody cares about. Just like security or freedom. It’s all nice to have if it comes for free, no time investment and no convenience cuts. So the only way to establich decentralization is by making it better, cheaper and easier to use than centralized services. #sadtruth

I’m back on #facebook! Visit my profile @ follow me here: http://shorturl.at/suwFH

You can now use https://codevoid.de/?q=%s as search provider in your browser. Requests that do not start with gopher:// will be forwarded to the non-JS version of duckduckgo. Gopher will be shown directly. I’m not logging anything. But you must be aware that your search terms would touch my server first.

iOS autotweet test #sorry

The workflow app on iOS is magic. I now have a button that asks me to select a picture, then converts it to png, resizes it, strips the metadata, scps it to my jumphost, scps it further to my gopher jail and into my paste directory, constructs the http proxy URL and opens it in safari. All without user-interaction. Now I can share my mobile life with you guys! Prepare for cat pictures!

Why do most new cool things depend on hipster tech like nodejs? sigh #dat
