With a bit of geomancy, a skilled necromancer may resurrect lost mountains, islands, continents - just recently, a team of secret agents had to stop one from raising Atlantis because his sacrifice would’ve been Iceland

The nice API makes me wonder how hard it would be to put together a lightweight twtxt desktop client; maybe I’ll look at that next week.
Poking around the network for a while, it’ll be interesting to see how long I hang onto this other than scripting things and forgetting…
All I need to do to get this to work in all major browsers is to wait for Safari to get a major version bump…

Every time I play with SCCS, I want to reimplement SCCS for Windows. Yes, I am under 60, why do you ask?
@kas@enotty.dk @freemor@freemor.homelinux.net I doubt many want to browser-sniff. Unfortunately, I see browser sniffing used to work around a particular browser’s bugs, so browser sniffing isn’t going away anytime soon.
I’m glad tilde.town feels exists, it helps a bit to shout through
sick of earworms? pit them against each other, let them decide it in a cagefight, maybe add more to see how many that cage holds
I think part of what’s killing emacs for me is what killed kakoune for me — I don’t have a good Meta key on my Mac and I’m not about to give up my Option key for it.
I had a nice bottle of rhum for Christmas. But as I’m doing the #DryJanuary I won’t be able to taste it yet. I guess it’ll just make it more enjoyable :)

some classes of thoughts are unlocked by walks and showers, others yet closed to us require vacuum, cloud dives into gas giants, nova blasts searing away one’s skin
Also I can’t wait to be paid so I can start a Japanese course on Rosetta Stone :)

yeah yeah but hear me out: We plant those forests not where anybody lives, but on giant rafts in the South Pacific Desert, and then we retire to there to tend to trees and worship Cthulhu
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net It’s seems that txtnish isn’t able to retrieve your twtxt file :/ I get the “curl: (6) getaddrinfo() thread failed to start”

Started to make a website for when we play truth or dare at my parties. Everything is done and working, and now I just have to write 600 truth/dare into it x)
@sdk@codevoid.de also, if you can find out how to get your desktop environment to tell your browser “I prefer dark mode”, that’s also an option
despite all the tools I’ve made, it is still a chore to update this thing. some things you just can’t automate
a hydra has that many heads because each is connected to a different stomach, seven in all, to digest plants, animals, air, gems, noble gases, emotions, vacuum
@irongeek@irongeek.net Welcome to Twtxt! I don’t think anyone still is doing something on http://twtxt.xyz/ honestly. It just runs on its own.
@kas@enotty.dk Well I do sign my emails, but the majority of persons I send emails to are not that kind of users :/
@xandkar@xandkar.net Welcome to Twtxt! Noticed a typo in your twtxt user-agent handle. It is pointing to txtxt.txt.
Even though noone send me GPG encrypted messages, I renewed my expiration date to one more year :)

Keybase and Stellar’s SpaceDrop unfortunately was naive in thinking greedy clever hackers wouldn’t find ways to scam the give-away for more Lumens and ruin it for everyone else.
Heading to the #DEL top match Munich vs. Mannheim. Hope our team has a chance with 12 players missing (including the two main goalies).
It would be up to the user to decide how granular to chunk things. Monthly? Yearly? Anyway, seems downloading bulk feeds over and over is going to be problematic.
This would allow for clients to only be required to download the latest chunk of messages instead of the entire feed every time.
Considering scalability, would it make sense to have a naming scheme so that you can break a stream into multiple files? E.g., twtxt.txt, twttxt-1.txt, twtxt-2.txt, etc?
May need to set up a script to automatically push
/me makes a note to check out exa after his business trip.
@kas@enotty.dk I aliased ls to exa and nothing broke. With any luck, nothing’ll break for you, either.
Twtxt is real enough. Feels funny to be so open writing here, yet nobody knows twtxt.txt is here - part of the charm

I need to bring my piratebox to my new job :) It wasn’t really exploited in the former one, it even got the USB stolen, but I love it and I want it used
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Sounds like yet another reason to never buy a smart TV, or at least to never depend on any functionality that requires it to be connected to the Internet.

made a PR to the linux-surface kernel today. it’s only udev rules, but I still feel accomplished
I noticed that I’m kinda pessimistic in intimacy while I tend to be optimistic in society. Based on what I say
Near a nova remnant, our ship encounters the most unlikely thing: A forest. A field of predatory trees, surfing the shockwave to the next star to devour it like a swarm of locust
@sdk@codevoid.de : So nice ! Also I really love everything about your website, it’s really pleasant to navigate on it :D
I don’t wanna work today, I just wanna listen to music all day…
My text editor failed to autocomplete like it usually does and now I’m left wondering if I introduced a syntax error or something that it can’t cope with.
Huh?! I bombed myself! Allocating 1GB to gzip and send it to the evil bot didn’t sound too wrong. But I forgot that the script runs in parallel for each request… BOOM!
I have trouble with a web crawler using the TOR network. It’s misusing the gopher proxy on my page. I don’t want to disable/block tor (that would be the easy way out). It’s permanently changing user agents and ignoring robots.txt. It ignores HTTP status codes. I’m currently serving it 4MB binary garbage in form of Link. It sucked in about 40GB of data now, but it doesn’t explode and keeps crawling. Any other idea about what to do with it?
@tx@shroom.party I have a Dyson V7 Cordless Cleaner and I have to say, this was the best purchase I made in the recent years.
Hm. My phone doesn’t reliably recognize me when I’m wearing wet glasses, but so far it seems to recognize me well enough when I’m wearing no glasses.

I’ve set up a fingerd on my domain. I’ve not had that much fun for quite a while… feel free to finger sex@ dick@ butt@ touch@ root@. The real one is finger@.
I’m going to call all “apps” programs again as part of my retro-computing experience.
bujo : I’m getting used to it, it’s nice and clear and I love how everything I do is archived :) It helps moving forward and having a clearer mind ^^
@kas@enotty.dk Will try some other time. I realized the new neomutt doesn’t like my config and I am not in the mood to debug this I’m back to the one in debian/testing.
How to cut PDF pages into tiles ⌘ https://blog.oxplot.com/cut-pdf-to-tiles/
@kas@enotty.dk It was released with 20191025 but 20191102 in Debian/SID seems to not be compiled with autocrypt support. Building the package myself fails and I don’t know what libs might be missing. :D
@kas@enotty.dk Oh I didn’t know a recent release brought autocrypt directly to neomutt. When I tried some 3rd party tool was necessary.
@kas@enotty.dk Last time I tried to activate autocrypt for neomutt nothing worked. How hard was it for you to set up?
How to Move a Website from Dreamweaver to BlueGriffon ⌘ https://www.thesitewizard.com/bluegriffon/move-from-dreamweaver-to-bluegriffon.shtml
@robbinaer@robbinaer.info The domain move seems to have worked. :-)
@kas@enotty.dk [re: gopher client] If you happen to be on Windows, then Gopher Browser for Windows by Matt Owen is pretty nice, otherwise I use Lynx indeed for gopher.
so glad USB phone tethering exists. no way am I going to stumble through wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli to connect to coffeeshop wifi
attempting to build arm-none-eabi cross compiler from source. why have I never thought of this?
@frogotbits.com Well actually I don’t have that much to right down (I think) so a bujo might be overkill. Actually I’m good with Taskwarrior for now, I find it faster to manage tasks, but having a place where I can put tasks and thoughts on paper is nice. That’s why i’m gonna go with dash-plus as @lucidiot@tilde.town showed me :)
Listening to L’amour et la violence by Sébastien Tellier
@lucidiot@tilde.town @johanbove@johanbove.info Ok, I guess I’m pumped up to start bullet journaling again ! Thanks for the motivation !
Funny how not that long ago I made a remark to a friend who was keeping all his notes as txt files and now I am looking at doing exactly that. txt will probably be the one format that will be around for a very long time still.
@lucidiot@tilde.town Agreeing that BuJo kind of saved my mind too. It now takes me about three months to fill up 251 pages with tasks, notes and events.
German grammar is really tricky sometimes when it comes down to writing user-interface labels
Thanks a lot @lucidiot@tilde.town ! I’ll be sure to keep that in mind ^^
My 2014 Android Moto-X is finally out-of-order - the battery life is close to flat-lining and when it boots it gets stuck for a really long time in the optimizing apps mode. The case is cracked. Goodbye old friend.
As my hardware is getting older, I feel myself getting more attracted to retro-computing.
Donated 500ml of my own blood today at the Uniklinik in Düsseldorf to help others in need.
Anyone still using Skype actually? Seems like the service completely lost to WhatsApp.
@frogor@www.frogorbits.com compared to the Iphone 7. XR might be more powerful but it’s clumsy to hold as big and heavy. Does not feel like a phone at all.
