println!("We got this string: [{}]", foo);

fn main() {
// "Hello", 0x00, 0x00, "!"
let buf: [u8; 8] = [0x48, 0x65, 0x6C, 0x6C, 0x6F, 0x00, 0x00, 0x21];

Create a string from a byte array, but the result isnāt a string, itās a cow š®, so you need another to_string() to convert your āstringā into a string.
- https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/string/struct.String.html#method.from_utf8_lossy
- https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/borrow/enum.Cow.html
I still have a lot to learn.
(into_owned() instead of to_string() also works and makes more sense to me, itās just that the compiler suggested to_string() first, which led to this funny example.)
Lately (since there are AI summaries at the top), each time I Google for the answer to a question, the AI summary has at least a part of the answer wrong. It makes up laws that do not exist, books that were never published - in sum, well written sentences that make linguistic sense, but with made up content.
Let me repeat: each time. Maybe I only search for hard stuff, or fringe stuff, or this some other explanation - but seriously, itās hard to understand how isnāt Google ashamed of its AI overviewsā¦ or not sued under some regulation regarding fake news.
PS: yes, I know, my fault for using Google as a search engine.

French measures forcing porn sites to verify their usersā ages came into effect on June 7, prompting the worldās largest porn website, Pornhub, to stop operating in France.

@bender @prologic Jokes aside, I don't think that's the right approach either. We had spell checkers, since I can remember, as well as other tools, like the smart image select, used mostly to remove backgrounds. These are tools, that just simplify the process of either opening up a dictionary and looking up a word, you can't remember the spelling of, or the process of placing a billion little dots around the part of an image you want to select - none of these are creative or enjoyable tasks, we already had tools for them, decades before AI. I don't think we need to go back to cave paintings, to be free of AIs influence on our creative work.

Itās always tempting to use something that already exists (like X, Masto, Bsky, etc.) rather that building anything through effort and disagreement until reaching to something useful and valuable together. A āsocial serviceā is only useful if people is using it.
Iāll add that I havenāt lost interest on the āhackyā part of twtxt about developing tools, protocols, and extensions as a community. Itās the appealing part! Itās a nice hobby to have, shared with random people across the world.
But this is not the right way for me, and makes me feel that Iām unwelcome to propose something different (after watching replies to my previous twt). Feels like āIf you donāt agree, you are free to leave, weāll miss you.ā Naah, not cool.

by commenting out DMs are you giving up on simplicity? See the Metadata extension holding the data inside comments, as the client doesnāt need to show it inside the timeline.
I donāt think that commenting out DMs as we are doing for metadata is giving up on simplicity (itās a feature already), and it helps to hide unwanted DMs to clients that will take months to add itās support to something namedā¦ an extension.
For some other extensions in https://twtxt.dev/extensions.html (for example the reply-to hash #abcdfeg or the mention @ < example http://example.org/twtxt.txt >) is not a big deal. The twt is still understandable in plain text.
For DM, itās only interesting for you if you are the recipient, otherwise you see an scrambled message like 1234567890abcdef=. Even if you see it, youāll need some decryption to read it. Iāve said before that DMs shouldnāt be in the same section that the timeline as itās confusing.

On the way back with the growling thunder in the distance coming closer and closer we escaped the rain just perfectly. A minute or two after we reached the car, wet stuff started coming down the sky. Not even half a minute after opening the front door, it poured like crazy. Lucky twice today. Thereās beautiful sunshine again by now. It smells absolutely great after the rain. I love it!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz At the core, you need an ngircd.conf like this:

Password = yourfancypassword
Listen = 0.0.0.0
Ports = 6667
AdminInfo1 = Well, me.

PAM = no
[SSL]
CertFile = /etc/ssl/acme/your.irc.server.com.fullchain.pem
KeyFile = /etc/ssl/acme/private/your.irc.server.com.key
DHFile = /etc/ngircd/dhparam.pem
Ports = 6669
Start it and then you can connect on port 6667. (The SSL cert/key must be managed by an external tool, probably something like certbot or acme-client.)

A mate and I had an amazing but also exhausting hike to the highest of the Three Emperor Mountains yesterday with perfect weather conditions. Sunny 18Ā°C, blue sky with barly a cloud and a little welcoming breeze, just beautiful.
Mt. Stuifen is 757 meters above sea level, has a small shelter and a barbie area and is still the most boring one of the three. Itās also the one farthest away from me. Not sure why it has two summit crosses, but both arenāt at the summit. The third, makeshift one at the real summit was gone by now. Four years ago, somebody had cobbled one together and put it up.
We bought our tucker at a local bakery on our way. This was the first time I tried a Teufelsbrezel (lit. devilās pretzel), a lye pretzel with pepper. Havenāt come across that anywhere else. But I can certainly recommend that, itās yummy.
We were glad when we were finally back home after some 26 or 27km. I wonāt do much today and let my feet rest. Another friend called for a much, much shorter hike tomorrow.

Even though I really do like the shell, I always use Dolphin to mount my digicam SD card and copy the photos onto my computer. I finally added a context menu item in Dolphin to create a forest stroll directory with the current date in order to save some typing:
The following goes in ~/.local/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/galmkdir.desktop:
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Service
X-KDE-ServiceTypes=KonqPopupMenu/Plugin,inode/directory
Actions=Waldspaziergang;
[Desktop Action Waldspaziergang]
Name=Heutigen Waldspaziergang anlegenā¦
Icon=folder-green
Exec=~/src/gelbariab/galmkdir "%f"
In order to update the KDE desktop cache and make this action menu item available in Dolphin, I ran:
kbuildsycoca5
The referenced galmkdir script looks like that:
#!/bin/sh
set -e
current_dir="$1"
if [ -z "$current_dir" ]; then
echo "Usage: $0 DIRECTORY" >&2
exit 1
fi
dir="$(kdialog \

--inputbox "Neues Verzeichnis in ā$current_dirā anlegen:" \
"waldspaziergang-$(date +%Y-%m-%d)")"
mkdir "$current_dir/$dir"
dolphin "$current_dir/$dir"
