@eaplmx@twtxt.net that’s right. I’d use something like WhatsApp to chat if the other party don’t understand the difference, but if you know and you’re stubborn I’ll negotiate an alternative or leave it alone.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net “It’s too complicated”, “Use what everyone else use” or “Why I can’t do X only with you?”

I’ve heard those phrases too many times.

My way of doing is a bit weird but help others know that I’m always reachable, but not in a way others do.

I purposely delay everything from what I don’t like to use

Ranging from days to weeks or months, messages or content shared via WhatsApp or other similar medium, a Facebook link (I don’t have FB) is ignored, a group chat is totally ignored even when mentioned.

I’m always immediate on answering via direct messages and calls, I also always say this “What do you need help with?” like a good family call center to see for what reason they contact me.

Doing so for many years has paid off greatly.

Some cut ties by saying I’m antisocial (partly true 😎) and never care for me again, not that they cared before, others stopped writing to me and directly choose to call or video call, “just to see me”, it makes me happy to know that, others started inviting me to their house for lunch or dinner just to meet me.

That’s what I did, if someone care for you they’ll find ways to interact with you and maybe they’ll try to understand and (and maybe adopt) your ways of doing and tools.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net I see, I have no idea for any alternative that’s simple to handle for your case.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net For your case, you could have a basic auth over your yarn instance maybe?

In-reply-to » So... What a crazy ass world we live in! 🤦‍♂️ Any of you (I know @deebs does) remember when Minecraft was a kids games for kids and created by this awesome guy and was open source (I believe)? 🤔 -- That is until he sold it to Microsoft (who bought it for stupid amounts of money). What did Microsoft go and do with it? That's right kids! 😅 They forced everyone old and new ever wanting to play the game to have a "Microsoft" account. 🤦‍♂️ -- So my daughter has been wanting to play for some years now, I've said "No". But she's a bit older now, so its getting harder to say no. -- So she now has an account. But in order to protect her real identity and her email email address (I'm her father, of course I'm going to set her up in this stupid ass digital world properly 🤣); I had to 1) buy a random domain name 2) delegate it to Cloudflare 3) Setup Email routing. All this so I could setup basically "junk" / "throwaway" email addresses and create an account with "basically garbage data". 🤦‍♂️

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net it’s not actually turn based but it’s a pretty cool game, there’s also a sequel, Shining Soul 2.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net I like turn based that keep mechanics simple, I’m one that never touch the inventory in a fight and only waste time to organize it instead of exploring. I tried Shining Soul (GBA) recently and lost hours in putting in order my herbs and weapons.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net Yeah, hundreds games with no space, I played the first Pokemon GB/GBA just to analyze it’s structure and movement system, not my type of game.

What I mostly play are platformers, story based games and air combat.

But my all time best is Crash Bandicoot 2. 😁

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I do play when I don’t have anything to do (not too often) but get hooked on them until completed, mostly retro games via RetroArch (GBA and PSX), I even set up some sync scripts to play seamlessly on my PC, Android phone and raspberry pi.

The engine was this one actually.

https://www.sandboxgamemaker.com/

I recommend an older version of it.

It should be in the repo of most distro, Mac in Win should be there too, great for kids wanting to create.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org at that time Minecraft was the most hyped game I was playing with this (open source).

https://www.platinumarts.net/platinum-arts-game-design/

It allows scripting so you can make full fledged custom games in it, but I only played with the map editor.

In-reply-to » I currently have 153 browser tabs open so maybe my resolution for 2023 is to reduce that.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I resolved by going anonymous by default, once you close the browser all is gone.

If you can’t do that, I recommend using some extension to limit the open tabs.

For my tabs before that, I’d usually go around the 500 or more.

On my phone thought I still see a smiley on the tabs since I’ve reached 100+. 😎

In-reply-to » Three and a half hours until midnight and people are already setting off fireworks in the distance. Weird and a little annoying.

@thecanine@twtxt.net anything I put in my ear is bad for me, the main issues is sweat which I’m allergic to and make rashes form on my skin.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org luckily they stopped for enough time to let me fall asleep and didn’t shot them close to my window so I got to sleep enough.

Yesterday I was seriously messed up with a sharp headache the whole day, now I’m good 😊

In-reply-to » @prologic @justamoment Yet another unpronouncable project name, congrats. :-D The content column is way too narrow in my opinion, I basically have to horizontally scroll all diffs. Also the log view could benefit from a much wider view so that commit subjects are not split into several lines. That would help readability. All in all, way too much waste of screen space in my mind, but that might be inherited from legit, I don't know. I wonder how the twtxt part pans out, currently I don't see how that helps and simplifies any workflows. Let's see. Happy hacking!

@prologic@twtxt.net open source FTW!

Hope they don’t have leftovers for tonight… 😓

In-reply-to » @prologic and @justamoment, this Gitxt project sounds really interesting. Can you tell us about some of your goals?

@prologic@twtxt.net for what I see, this should be handled at a repo level and it should be handled in a file based fashion for everything to me.

Organizations and users can simply be folders with a top level repo that handle their “metadata”.

If we keep everyone on one level, then they can simply be #ORG or @user referenced in the feed.

Also what I’d like is to keep everything decoupled from the tool, if one wants to contribute manually without using any tools I’d love to see them do as much with no problems.

Yeah, for a personal blog or something I’d show a plain contact form rather than using analytics, even on site with it enabled I didn’t look at them at all, that’s how much I care about numbers. 😎

Damn it! NixOS paths don’t work when used directly, I’ll have to check better later.

Checking Go version ...                 [ OK ]
Checking $PATH ...                      [ ERR ]
$HOME/go/bin is not in your $PATH
FATAL: 🙁 preflight failed
make: *** [Makefile:23: preflight] Error 1

@prologic@twtxt.net I have Go 1.17 is it fine for this project? In go.mod it says go 1.19….

@prologic@twtxt.net @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Being file based is the best in my opinion, simple to read and edit with or without special tooling.

About the Twtxt part I think that if things evolves the way I can imagine it might become a dedicated protocol.

In-reply-to » gitxt - Code collaboratin for the small web. 👈 How's that @justamoment 😅

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci That’s my main issue too, if it’s at your fingertip you do it immediately, I even create projects on my Gitlab account from the terminal with an alias without even opening the browser.

The issue with the UI is that it feels too raw, still legit has a decent look for that case but we can do better.

My main aim is to have something that kinda feels like a micro Gitea, interface-wise.

What I like about this whole project idea is that it gives you the ability to use tools that are usually “detached” from the actual git repo like issues, ecc. in the usual mainstream forges (GitHub/Lab/tea) making it really decentralized and accessible.

As usual protocols over softwares.😎

How do you go about it?

I’m not a fan of it myself but having at least a minimal insight should be helpful, what do you think?

@prologic@twtxt.net that’s right, do you call the JSON RPC from the server rendering or directly from a middle layer (to keep in Go)? I see both as good.

@prologic@twtxt.net what I recommend is a dedicated layer for data fetching and manipulation, and call it from where you need it.

By simply serializing the data via API and as raw data on server templates.

@prologic@twtxt.net actually with next.js it does that on the server but it’s not quite what I’m thinking, you should find examples on cli apps for remote services or modular projects with the server side UI as a separate component.
