In-reply-to » i got a shelf for all my cassette tapes! from a lovely person on facebook marketplace :] i don't think they produce these anymore, i think i got a good deal Media

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oooh that’s a good point! woodworking is scary and i don’t have much room for it but i do have SOME room in mind that could work for it… i feel like i’d just hurt myself in the process though LOL

In-reply-to » i started a little thing on my dreamwidth and called it a flash prompt box. basically it's a limited time thing where people can prompt me for stuff i'm offering, like short fanfiction, photoshop-edited user icons, music recs, and a bit more! i'm having sooo much fun with it so far it's been a blast just making stuff for friends :)

@prologic@twtxt.net ah that’s alright! the banner is just for fun :] it might be easier to skip to the comments with this link if you want (it’s in the site view mode rather than my page’s theme) https://luckyzukky.dreamwidth.org/98451.html?style=site#comments

In-reply-to » grafana is confusing af i deployed it again for my job (that is so wild to say...) and i'm like HOW DO THESE ALERTS WORK

@prologic@twtxt.net noted! that all sounds very scary to me but i should lock in for the best experience for my users! (the best experience for my users is my server not crashing most of the time though so i guess the next best experience LOL)

In-reply-to » Nobody want to be a shitty programmer. The question is: Do you do anything not to not be one? Reading blogs or social media and watching YouTube videos is fun. After them, your code may be a little better, of course. But you need a lot. You need to study! Read good books and study the code of other programmers, for example. Maybe work with a new language, architectures and paradigms. You need break the routine.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev@andros@twtxt.andros.dev i know MVC but i don’t know model view view model what does this mean…. i am learning PHP (and a tiny bit of perl scripting) as a mainly ruby girl so mayhaps i am improving but my focus is SERVERS

slowing working away at my latest code project: learning PHP by recreating the 2000s fandom mainstay known as a fanlisting! it’s been super fun i added a dynamic nav bar and other modifications in the latest commit

fanlistings even to this day rely on old PHP scripts dating back to the early 2000s that need whole ass mySQL or postgres DBs and are incredibly insecure. you can look at them here they’re like super jank lol it’s sad that new fanlistings have to use them because there’s no other options….

In-reply-to » @kat / @xuu Recommend you git checkout main && git pull, rebuild and redeploy: make build, and however you deploy. 🙏 Lots of fixes (no more stalling) and optimizations to the feed fetcher, smoother cpu usage, better internal metrics.

@prologic@twtxt.net thank you so much, just did all of that! i’ll report back if i still need to restart <3

In-reply-to » i'm slowly learning nixOS as part of my new fujocoded contract thing and as scary as it is it's highkey kinda fun. like what do you mean i configure the bootloader with one god damn line in a file that's EPIC

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz with the help of a friend i got to build a nixOS server image from scratch and use it on a VPS! so that was neat!

In-reply-to » So, the “AI” bots have reached my website. Looks like they’re just slowly crawling everything at the moment – no DDoS-like attack yet. I wonder if that has something to do with my website being 100% static HTML. There are no GET parameters they can tweak and, at the end of the day, there’s not that much data on my server anyway … And maybe they have no idea what stagit is, so it doesn’t trigger “standard behavior”, like “this is a Gitea instance, let’s crawl this like crazy!”?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de LMAO the power of static pages!

In-reply-to » Confession:

@movq@www.uninformativ.de this is so real… i think we need to bring back topic focused groups but like with a little off topic side of things just in case people wanna go off topic. so the option’s there but the intent is the topic! microblogging isn’t best for this yeah. i think this is part of why IRC still goes strong for many tech people

In-reply-to » it seems i do have to restart my instance to re-queue feeds or something so i definitely fucked up migration to v16 lol

@prologic@twtxt.net i gave up on trying to get my local branch clean and just git clone’d main into a new directory and built from there LMAOOO it was such a mess i’m not good at git

i saw your commits fixing queue issues, fingers crossed it works on my end!

In-reply-to » I've just released version 1.0 of twtxt.el (the Emacs client), the stable and final version with the current extensions. I'll let the community maintain it, if there are interested in using it. I will also be open to fix small bugs. I don't know if this twt is a goodbye or a see you later. Maybe I will never come back, or maybe I will post a new twt this afternoon. But it's always important to be grateful. Thanks to @prologic @movq @eapl.me @bender @aelaraji @arne @david @lyse @doesnm @xuu @sorenpeter for everything you have taught me. I've learned a lot about #twtxt, HTTP and working in community. It has been a fantastic adventure! What will become of me? I have created a twtxt fork called Texudus (https://texudus.readthedocs.io/). I want to continue learning on my own without the legacy limitations or technologies that implement twtxt. It's not a replacement for any technology, it's just my own little lab. I have also made a fork of my own client and will be focusing on it for a while. I don't expect anyone to use it, but feedback is always welcome. Best regards to everyone. #twtxt #emacs #twtxt-el #texudus

In-reply-to » @kat @xuu Recommend you git checkout main && git pull && make build. Few bug fixes 😄

@prologic@twtxt.net done! hey i got a question, you got any clue why my feeds aren’t updating? maybe it has to do with the new cache flag but i messed with that a bit and didn’t notice a difference. basically it’s like i have to manually restart yarnd to see new posts it’s really weird lol

In-reply-to » gah i've been so busy working on love4eva! TL;DR i switched image backends from the test/dev only module i was using to the S3 one, but with a catch - i'm not using S3 or cloud shit!!! i instead got it to work with minio, so it's a middle ground between self hosting the image uploads & being compatible with the highly efficient S3 module. i'm super happy with it :)

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev@andros@twtxt.andros.dev it’s epic!

In-reply-to » @xuu or @kat Do either of you have time this weekend to test upgrading your pod to the new cacher branch? 🤔 It is recommended you take a full backup of you pod beforehand, just in case. Keen to get this branch merged and to cut a new release finally after >2 years 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net i can give it a try MAYBE, i’ve been super busy and all over the place but i will put it on my task list to try to remember! do you have upgrade/migration instructions anywhere that i can follow?

In-reply-to » Also, I should cut down on coffee. Seriously, I've nearly had a ... I honestly don't know what it was; A Panic attack? A heart attack? I dunno, I just felt like my heart and lungs were so about to burst I had to go for a run to cope.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com oh nooo i’ve been there. i have to balance out my abnormal coffee consumption with my anxiety medication which can’t be good lol
