In-reply-to » I will try and write a small cli example project in rust, that will let you post a message on yarn through a server url. Once I have that - I will then try and write a client with GUI and all that. I have not used rust much - but I really want to learn it more. I usually stick with c++. Not sure how much time it'll take to get started, but I'll give it a try.

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no This will be very useful in the future. Thanks for sharing!

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no I also happened to write a CLI in Rust not too long ago. It’ll definitely help get a taste of the language. Once you get in the mindset, things work out much faster.

In-reply-to » TikTok-Famous Doctors Are Getting Into NFTs And It's A Mess A group of TikTok- and Instagram-famous physicians say they have a solution for the "red tape" of the current medical system: NFTs of cartoon doctors. From a report: These NFTs, called MetaDocs, are supposed to give buyers access to real doctors, almost like a Web3 telehealth subscription. When MetaDocs launched in December, it claimed that its legion of ... ⌘ Read more

Whelp, you know it already, using something trendy for more publicity. Think its time to bin NFTs and cryptocurrencies already if it isn’t going to help with environment.

In-reply-to » I think Gemini is a breath of fresh air. These people who develop web standards won't stop at all 😂 Guess it's actually a pain to write a browser from scratch

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net As @novaburst@twt.nfld.uk suggested, ASCII images is probably what we’re looking for 😉
But simply having links with alt text to any hosted image might work if it’s too complex/ looks meaningless in ASCII.
For videos, documents, the same thing can be applied, except you cannot really ASCII-fy them.

Yes, I’m in full agreement. However, I see myself getting sick of all the new things coming up as “web standards”, probably that looks like building on a weak foundation to me, so obviously gemini looks like a far better option to me for content in text. Not sure how multimedia would work with Gemini though.

In-reply-to » I still don't know which software I should use to build a personal knowledge management system (PKM). Dokuwiki seems nice, I know it well but I can't figure out, why media uploads are not working. TiddlyWiki is awesome, super flexible but media uploads are terrible. Bookstack is nice, nice editor, but I keep spending a lot time figuring out, in which book should I add this piece of information. MediaWiki, baah too old, WikiJS too complicated..... maybe wordpress? Just post things and tag them, including media upload. mmhhh....

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net Probably https://obsidian.md/ is right up your alley. You’d still need to find a way to publish your stuff, should you do it, or else it works well locally.
