Posting from Yarnc!

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Even stupider considering that Google Authenticator is what they advertise as the main 2FA method for your google account. Now think about how that works when the authentication code for your account is being synced, in your account…

Check this out

@prologic@twtxt.net very nice

@prologic@twtxt.net Last night’s supermoon, I think

Wanting to get into Geminispace and starting to feel like I should write my own Gemini server in Go

My Go implementation of a server, for the curious: https://github.com/ShreyanJain9/nex-server

@prologic@twtxt.net Looks a lot like Go, in a good way

Some of their ideas are definite improvements, but other things are more confusing for no good reason

@yakumo_izuru@tsuki.chaotic.ninja Heh, it looks a little bit like a hackathon project someone might make right after discovering TCP/IP and socket programming

@prologic@twtxt.net Yup. Was very easy to get Go implementations of both a Client and a Server up and running within 10 minutes.

Check out the Nex Protocol. It’s designed to be even simpler than Gemini and Gopher. What do you think? Could be great to host a twtxt feed on.

Taking a look at the V Programming Language

@prologic@twtxt.net I guess you could use VLC, it technically meets all your requirements, except it might be hard to use for kids…

Another thing I noticed - the Python implementation cannot handle 512-bit keys. Not sure if this is a limitation of the library or of BIP-39 itself.

@prologic@twtxt.net Not sure! I have a feeling it has something to do with yours possibly not converting to-or-from UTF-8?

@prologic@twtxt.net Not sure what’s wrong with that script, everything looks like it should work…

hacked this up in python that does roughly what you wanted

https://gist.github.com/ShreyanJain9/29438d5dc0ebf58d28fc57dd585621e6

@prologic@twtxt.net @eapl.me@eapl.me there is nothing super specific to bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in BIP39, it can be used for any hexadecimal string. +1 use BIP39

@xuu@txt.sour.is @prologic@twtxt.net what is being stored in there…

@prologic@twtxt.net for sure, could be time to take some pages out of bluesky’s book, their model for how this would work is very interesting

additional apis for Yarn’s crawler would be nice. And docs for the existing ones

is there any interest in an index of known public twtxt feeds that provides a json-based api for things like a social graph, getting more complete views of a thread, etc..

test

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no happy birthday 🎂

good morning, just built a server that can subscribe to and publish twtxt feed

Touching moss

in case you were considering trying Meta Threads

@prologic@twtxt.net not many people are looking for hot new yarn.social content from their search engines. it could be enough to simply block the indexers, at both robots.txt level and rejecting their known IPs and useragents.

@prologic@twtxt.net LOL WTF

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Btw, if you want a more “tinkerer-friendly” smartphone… Linux on smartphones is becoming a thing again. Have you checked out a device like the PinePhone lately?

@prologic@twtxt.net this is why I stick to what works and isn’t constantly trying to shove Microsoft edge etc down my throat

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci watched some PragerU on YouTube once. the amazing thing about them is that they can actually draw you in by sounding reasonable at first and by the time it gets insidious you won’t even notice.

public static void main(String[] args)

as the Times grow worse, so does Time ;)

@prologic@neotxt.dk personally loving Orion browser. so few left who don’t pull BS like this

the new headline isn’t that much better. why is ‘generational’ in quotation marks? it just feels so silly 😔

not really sure how this kind of thing even passes their review

what’s wrong with this headline? 🤔🧐

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci if the death threats are coming from Microsoft themselves that’s a whole other can of worms, and I really hope it’s not them. and if they aren’t then who are these people who care so much about copilot they’re willing to resort to others’ deaths to keep it? the whole thing is very strange and horrifying.

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no for sure, the thought of being able to buy one does not even really cross my mind

Thoughts on Apple Vision Pro?

@mckinley@twtxt.net NextCloud on a Raspberry Pi

@prologic@twtxt.net I hope so. If there is, I haven’t found it yet

@prologic@twtxt.net True, brew is very helpful in that regards, and yeah, security does matter. It just bothers me when they use such logic to, for example, restrict Safari WebExtensions to only being available through the App Store even if it’s signed properly

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net What about Ulysses?

I find it deeply ironic that the site that ran this article, Forbes, has by now become enshittified with ads and paywall popups galore. Would they come out against stricter copyright laws again today?

@prologic@twtxt.net It’s also been my primary OS for a long time, and I still love it, but I don’t love some of Apple’s decisions. What prompted me to write this specific post was having to take extra steps to open FOSS apps on macOS because they don’t have an “Apple-approved” signature 🤦‍♂️

I truly despise the way Apple has slowly locked up macOS

God forbid I say that at first glance it might even look like a much more complicated twtxt???

@prologic@twtxt.net https://nostr.com is a much better explainer, tbh, and makes it look a lot less stupid

@prologic@twtxt.net That is literally nostr in a nutshell
