Hello everyone!
This instance will shut down later today! I have to sell the NAS as it is not working properly any more, and I have to switch to another one. I don’t know if I come back in the future. It was nice for the moment, and thank you for all the hints and tips and tricks. But sorry. I do not see a benefit of posting here any more. Time to move on.
So please update all your bookmarks and links.
So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish 🖖
Still undecided between TiddlyWiki, DokuWiki, Bear, Benotes, Memos, my blog software, standardnotes, apple notes and more. I like them all quite a bit, but standardnotes, the only one that has reall multiplatform is so fucking complicated to host on your own and then they have this stupid offline subscription thing that allows rich text or the block editor that works like notion. I also found codex docs which is really really nice. Unfortunately they lack proper authentication. 1 / 2
Waiting for my 3D printer, I think I can update this pod
Went to the barber shop today. Got a nice talk and, surprisingly, my first “contract” to 3D print something. So, I spent the last hour reading about QR codes, versions and patterns and rescue data to embed an image in the centre of the code. Then it took me some time to convert it from a PNG to an SVG to an STL, so I can put it into Tinkercad to design the new plate. I now have a baseplate, a backplate with the QRCode & two smaller plates which I have to glue into placeholders on the backplate.
My wife cut waves for me out of vinyl foil, and I was then allowed to apply them. It looks cool and can also be removed without residue if necessary.
For the first time, already pretty good and almost without bubbles (Blasen in German). 😜🤪 /BadDadJokes
And this is a PNG created from the project file before the cutting. The colours match almost perfect, as she did not use a colour pipette of a photograph.
Mmmh how should I bring a longer blogpost onto this platform? Should I create something like a Thread? Or should I paste the translation onto some other markdown service, hedgedoc hosted site and link it?
I was listening to an O’Reilly hosted event where they had the CEO of GitHub, Thomas Dohmke, talking about CoPilot. I asked about biased systems and copyright problems. He, Thomas Dohmke, said, that in the next iteration they will show name, repo and licence information next to the code snippets you see in CoPilot. This should give a bit more transparency. The developer still has to decide to adhere to the licence. On the other hand, I have to say he is right about the fact, that probably every one of us has used a code snippet from stack overflow (where 99% no licence or copyright is mentioned) or GitHub repos or some tutorial website without mentioning where the code came from. Of course, CoPilot has trained with a lot of code from public repos. It is a more or less a much faster and better search engine that the existing tools have been because how much code has been used from public GitHub repos without adding the source to code you pasted it into?

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci sure. Sometimes I just send the same email again, with a changed header. But that doesn’t work all the time. Some people even respond with “yes, already got your last email, no need to repeat”. But thats all they answer. The actual information is not sent.

Microsoft’s GitHub Copilot is massive copyright infringement
Before you read this article – note that Codeium offers a competitor to GitHub Copilot. This means they have something to sell, and something to gain by making Copilot look bad. That being said – their findings are things we already kind of knew, and further illustrate that Copilot is quite possibly one of the largest, if not the largest, GPL violations in history. To prove that GitHub Copilot trains on non perm ... ⌘ Read more

@ionores@twtxt.net thank you. If I use this, do I have to setup CI as well or is it integration into ForgeJo? The documentation only talks about CI Integration.

@carsten Yes, an option for deliberate cross-posting or POSSE the IndieWeb way is more appealing to me also to keep yarn.social feeling light and clean. In that way your twtxt feed would be the backbone of your own site and then have some middle-ware, which cross-post to your mastodon account and whatever service you fancy to use: Media

@prologic Each system was created because there was someone thinking about something that this person was missing from the other systems. Now that we start connecting all these systems back together, do we then need the different systems anymore, or could we only fall back to using one system?

@prologic@twtxt.net This is undoubtedly why I went away from Hugo, Pelican, WordPress and co and wrote a small, for my needs, blog software. I also learned a lot about the Flask Framework, which I can now use to enhance our apps at work and make my boss happy. I would have chosen Go, but it was not the chosen product at work, so, sorry. KISS principle. Like almost everything in the *nix world. A small tool for a small thing. Chain it with others if you need more.
The pull-only model seems to work nice. You have multiple social networks, each one with its own unique audience. Pull things from others into your when you want.
From my point of view, I think twtxt and yarn are good as they are. The protocol s nice, easy and clean afaik. The surrounding software, makes it what it is today. Multiple clients, each having it pros and cons. The only thing I am missing is some sort of media manager for my uploaded images to yarn.social. But that is specific to this implementation and has nothing to do with the twtx protocol.

The Ukrainians are fighting hard. SO many dead people, so many good people’s lives lost.
NATO head Jens Stoltenberg said Russia could capture Bakhmut “in the coming days.” Meanwhile, Germany said it inspected a ship suspected of carrying Nord Stream pipelines explosives. DW has rounded up the latest.
The Nord Stream pipeline? Probably: blowing up Nord Stream pipelines was a false flag action made to look like Ukrainian false flag action to cover up American false flag action using Russian false flag action. But who will ever know?

Time To Go To Bed! Sleep is the best medicine.
Good Morning. Still a bit sick today. But getting better. My Corona-warning App updated this morning and showed new contacts in the last 5 days. So, I did test myself and luckily, it was negative! We isolated ourselves to not get anything before going on vacation, and now coming back we are sick with little coughing and a head cold (running nose) 🤧.
Oh I didn’t know that: GDPR-style regulation could be coming to Australia. “Australians would gain greater control of their personal information, including the ability to opt out of targeted ads, erase their data and sue for serious breaches of privacy, under a proposal to the Albanese government.” Paul Karp reports. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/feb/16/australians-able-to-opt-out-of-targeted-ads-and-erase-their-data-under-proposed-privacy-reforms

The host got updated and is now running a new version of Docker and Portainer. It seems to be, that the issues with containers not being started have been addressed. All containers started successfully, except the one for Yarn.social. It is still a mystery to me why this is not working as it should. Maybe it is because I am running yarn.social through a compose/stack configuration? Perhaps I should set it up as a container directly.

A new typeface – greater legibility and readability for low vision readers

What makes it different from traditional typography design is that it focuses on letterform distinction to increase character recognition, ultimately improving readability.

Had to disable registrations. Sorry, guys. But I got sooo many automatic generated accounts. My mailbox told me to delete plenty of users. Unfortunately, there is no east way to remove users. An overview of all users on a yarn instance would be cool to have. And sorry for not having the time to look into that.
This pod just got updated to the latest and greatest (hopefully bug free) version of yarn.social.

I am pleased to announce that I received new glasses. Still a bit different to wear. New frame of course too. But, everything is now very sharp, and I can already feel that my eyes are much more relaxed.
It is a bit strange. When I view a YARN thread, I cannot reply. I always get an Error 400.
