Having slept for only 2 hours, I truly feel like, well, someone who has only slept 2 hours. 🤭 Can’t wait for lunch time to take a small nap.

@prologic@twtxt.net, this is spam.

In-reply-to » @bender I have nothing against GoToSocial, but:

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I understand, yes. JSON files are easier to manipulate with readily available tools. When I used GTS (not anymore, I run Mastodon because I didn’t want to have to wait for client APIs to catch up), I had it with SQLite configured. It was only one file, and I could manipulate it nicely with a bit of SQL knowledge.

In-reply-to » I think @abucci and @stigatle are running snac? I didn’t have a closer look at snac (no intention of running it), but if that is a relatively small daemon (maybe comparable to Yarn?) that gives you access to the whole world of ActivityPub, then, well, yeah … That’s tough to beat.

@prologic@twtxt.net oh, I get that. I look at it this way: I prefer email, but I still get snail mail. Each has its use, right?

In-reply-to » @bender @mckinley If you had to pick between Picnic CSS and Bulma? Which would you choose? 🤔 And why?

@prologic@twtxt.net right. It has the neat visual appeal (without going too much overboard), that could make a remake of Yarn UI better looking. For what I can see it is most feature rich, but haven’t compared them both in excruciating details to be absolutely sure.

That is not to say that Picnic CSS is bad, nor that I don’t like it. In a level of being decently simple, they both are. Bulma just comes across as more polished, that’s all.

In-reply-to » renovating the bathroom on the upper floor

@prologic@twtxt.net you know, wives will always find something they don’t like. I think they did a good job. Wish it was cheaper, but considering the have to redo walls, tiles (floor and shower walls), relocate drain, and water lines, do new floor boards, painting, new cabinets, new toilet, new lights. I mean, it was truly an entire remodeling. Worth it.

In-reply-to » @bender Oh, That sounds delicious! B'Saha![1] I'm Glad you've had quite the productive! All I remember of mine is three chapters of an old novel at the coffee shop aaand ... Now I'm here, in front of a computer. Everything in between is just Blank 😅

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com today I learned! Thank you! I shall use it at work to impress my Arabic speaking friends. Have an amazing week!

In-reply-to » It's kinda quiet in here today!

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com it depends. It was decently busy around here (Yarn)! 🤭

This Sunday (currently 16:46 US EDT) I mowed our lawn, trimmed bushes, blowed the dust, then showered, went shopping, cooked, and just now finished eating steamed rice with chick peas stew, and finely cut spam air fried crispy. Yum! I want more, but got to stop the glutton in me. 😂

In-reply-to » Hah 🤣 @dfaria Your @dfaria.eu feed really does consume about >50% of a "Discover" search with filters "Without replies" and "Hide my posts". 🤣 Media 36/2 = 18 at 25 Twts per page, that's about ~72% of the search/view real estate you're taking up! wow 🤩 -- I'd be very interested to hear what ideas you have to improve this? Those search filters were created so you could sift through either your own Timeline or the Discover view easily.

@prologic@twtxt.net check the links on this twtxt. You are talking to the void. 😊

In-reply-to » Executing all tests of the online registrations I'm building for the scouts takes now 70 seconds. Initializing a new SQLite database in RAM and creating all the tables for each test case sums up and takes its time. During development cycles I more often resort to the -run flag for go test to specify only one area of tests to be executed. Much more fun this way to quickly go back to writing code.

@prologic@twtxt.net isn’t it evident? It surprises me you need to ask! 😂

In-reply-to » @bender You don't know me and you're already making arbitrary judgments about me. I only got upset because they didn't warn me that they were going to block my domain. Nobody likes being canceled without warning. There were other civilized ways of letting me know that there was a problem with my domain instead of blocking it unilaterally. Bye-bye!

@dfaria@twtxt.net plunk.

@dfaria@twtxt.net you are not who you say you are, you are who you show to be. You demonstrated a certain lack of levelled engagement, and sound reasoning; you were borderline hysterical. All qualities everyone should have, even more so someone who has chosen the teaching path.

This is not a train terminal. No need to give so many warnings about leaving, so many “bye-byes”. If that’s your intention, just leave.

In-reply-to » @dfaria Sorry this has pissed you off so much (unintentional) -- Also why the irrational outburst?! 😱 That's no way to have discourse or help improve anything 🤦‍♂️

@prologic@twtxt.net “let it go, Indiana”. Evidently Assistant Professor Faria can’t—or doesn’t want to—engage in civil discourse. Using Her Majesty’s proper: fuck it!

In-reply-to » After a nearby lightning strike one of my screens turned off for a second. That was the signal to call it quits today.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org it seems you don’t have a decent UPS with surge protection. Invest in one! We have one everywhere there is a constantly-used valuable appliance in the house, including refrigerator.

In-reply-to » I am supposed to come to office today, but I have caught the same cold bug wife has had for the last three days, so I am staying remote to spare cube-mates. Nose stuck, dripping, and a general slight sense of malaise is what I am feeling right now.

Thank you very much, everyone!

@prologic@twtxt.net thanks mate! I am trying to isolate, wearing masks at home, and washing hands constantly, to see if kid can be spared.

In-reply-to » I have months of intense security compliance theater ahead of me and wish for a quick and painless death.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de we had one of those at the beginning of the pandemic, when everyone was sent home. It truly was painful. Now we are having another university to evaluate our processes, and procedures; not much security based, but still a pain.

In-reply-to » Ich frag’ mich schon oft, wie das für die englischen Muttersprachler sein muss, all diese sogenannten Markennamen zu benutzen. „Ich benutze Fenster 11! Das hier ist eine KraftPunkt-Präsentation. Den Kode für dieses Skript habe ich vom Deppendrehkreuz.“ All sowas. 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de it is all in the context. When referring to computers, if the person uses Microsoft Windows, then colloquially the user “is on Windows”, for example.

For PowerPoint is simpler, as nothing else is called that way, nor have the same spelling. But yeah, similar to “gonna grab a Coke”. It is intrinsically embedded in the language.

Google:

I often wonder what it must be like for native English speakers to use all these so-called brand names. “I use window 11! This is a KraftPoint presentation. I got the code for this script from the idiot turnstile.” All that sort of thing.

🤣🤣🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I figure the same as for non-native. LOL. All translation services are doing a poor job at translating your twtxt. 😭

In-reply-to » @bender Standard twtxt is a microblog in its purest form. A blog, but smaller. It's just a list of posts to read, and that's an echochamber in the same way my regular blog is an echochamber. I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

@mckinley@twtxt.net not a problem, but I don’t want to see it. When I get to see it constantly, without following it, then it becomes a problem. Blogs being echo chambers do not bother. They don’t “come to me”. :-D
