@prologic@twtxt.net awww thank you! yeah i’d love to keep it small and chill. that’s what i and my friends like most about yarn, how small and quiet it is, it’s just chill! and there’s no likes/reposts too which helps keep it super chill i think. just vibes… it’s the best! you’ve built something great!

In-reply-to » I'm usually comfortable keeping my hardship to myself, most especially AWAY from the internet; an act of kindness of sorts towards others, "Everyone's got their own problems to worry about" kind of thing.. But maaan am I starting to believe creating a twitter account would be a healthy decision 🤣🤦 Read nothin' out there, just a one way echo chamber of sorts to let that shi_ out of my chest. It seem that's what everyone else's been using it for all this time.

Thank you for your kind words @prologic@twtxt.net 🙏 things will indeed.

In-reply-to » i'm pretty sure i'm running this all off sqlite so if i get too many users on here i might be cooked but oh well i can always try to migrate (<-- has heard migrations from sqlite to mysql/postgres are hell)

@bender@twtxt.net oh yeah i remember that part of the docs lol! honestly yeah i think sqlite is fine for the number of users i have which is like, 5 including me, and active users is just… me, but if i were to have more active users i could always spin up a separate instance as jank as that is

In-reply-to » hmmm i really should set up crowdsec and maybe a WAF like coraza or something. i don't look at my logs as much as i should because they scare me and ignorance is bliss but i should probably cut out as much false traffic as possible especially to my biggest site (superlove)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i’m reading this and i already have a gts server that i could secure with this but i’m thinking it’d be best for most of my public sites https://ovelny.sh/blog/a-complete-guide-for-your-gotosocial-server/

In-reply-to » just spent like half an hour finding a terminal based color picker that would just. turn the cursor into a cross hair and let me pick from the screen. in linux fashion this was somehow difficult

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i wound up with xcolor AND pastel at the same time, because xcolor does exactly what i want while pastel and its picker subcommand does the same thing, relying on xcolor, but brings up a nice graphic of the picked color and related colors, plus more than just the hex code. neat.

In-reply-to » i love posting to my own personal youtube site i can just do whatever tf i want. no content ID here just vibes and finger crossing that i don't get a cease and desist one day

@prologic@twtxt.net hahahah yeah it’s a bit heavy for what i need but i do like that it’s advanced enough that it’s easy for friends to use :P

@prologic@twtxt.net mediacms! it’s janky yeah but it does the job ultimately (even if sometimes videos don’t encode and i gotta do some weird python venv shit to force the encode lol…)

In-reply-to » hey yarn pod hosting friends, how do i enable an SMTP relay in the env settings? i'm trying to get a friend on here and i'm pretty sure my env config is good but it won't send emails even after restarts which is strange. i have the right hostname for mailjet, user and pass are in there, same with from address, i'm wondering if the port is messing it up bc it has to send from 587?

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz ok nvm just temp enabling registrations for this bc it just won’t work lol i’ll play with it another time

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz wondering if the smtp_host variable is expecting something other than just the mailjet hostname…

In-reply-to » Any idea What's this "twtxtfeevalidator/0.0.1" UA about? I thought I could ask before throwing a 1000GB file at it 🪤 could it be the same 'xt' thing @lyse was talking about the other day?

hmm… apparently the invalid twts are the latest ones I’d posted from Timeline but highly probably because I’d tried to restore them manually, after unintentionally overriding my twtxt file with one that was out of date 🤦

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oh! no need to be sorry and feel free to keep at it if it helps, I don’t mind. It’s just that I’m always on the lookout for corpo-bots and crawlers slipping through the cracks (a fun little game of sorts) 😅 the only thing I let them see is a robots.txt telling them to :diffoff

Also, I’m curious about the invalid lines in my feed. is it something I should lookout for in future?

@movq@www.uninformativ.de woah it’s like a cheatsheet with explanations! java is kind of arcane magic sorcery to me so i’m having trouble understanding it but i have that with most programming languages. this is like so much easier to actually look at and read instead of my eyes glazing over lol

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Sorry I missed your messages to #twtxt on IRC. There are people there, but it can take several hours to get a response. E.g. I check it every day or two. I recommend using an IRC bouncer. To answer your question about registries, I used a couple of registries when I first started out, to try to find feeds to follow, but haven’t since then. I don’t remember which ones, but they were easy to find with web searches.

In-reply-to » i recorded my first camcorder video!!!! it's just me practicing guitar after sooo long of not playing it. my acoustic, to be specific (well, it's an electric acoustic thing but i can play it without plugging it in lol, i do have a stratocaster though). it's capped at ~30 minutes because i used one mini DVD for it and decided i wasn't gonna use another one to extend the run time. so yeah. it was super fun! i hope i can share it soon, i'm ripping the disc with make MKV right now, then i'll re-encode to a web friendly format, and upload to my site and hope that works well

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oh nah it came out like that lol! i actually love how squished it looks it feels accurate lol

oh yeah i think i might have a tripod around but i do need a sandbag or something i could use as one. maybe yeah a giant bag of rice could work LOL. thanks for the tips!!! i took a video class last year in college and we worked with cameras and tripods with sandbags so it was on my mind

In-reply-to » need to come up with ideas for camcorder videos... i have one but it's just 'talk in front of camera about fave songs i listened to in 2024' and i wanna do more fun things even though rambling in front of cam is already fun af

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yeah! as long as it’s fun :D experimenting with it like picking up the camera every once in a while to point somewhere else, or in editing inserting more video in between the static angles, that could be fun!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org it’d be a blast to record too with my camcorder! i’d have to figure out positioning and stuff like you said but i could probably figure something out with a bit of testing :P yeah it probably does make the project itself longer than it should be but i feel like if you make it a cozy kinda “sew with me” video where people watch you sew and film it with a static angle instead of like, showing every step? i think that’d be nice even if a bit boring. so i could absolutely try that.

magnetic tape camcorders omg!!! mine is digital but i’d LOVE to get a tape camcorder

In-reply-to » fighting for my life trying to learn golang WHAT THE FUCK IS A POINTER (rhetorical)

@prologic@twtxt.net oh it’s ok! thank you for the explanation! i think for me when it comes to programming i learn best by doing, so like written examples or talking about it helps less, BUT baseline explanations like what a pointer is does help! i was so confused and i still need to fix the error i’m having but i will figure it out!

In-reply-to » my camcorder battery & mini dvds came in the mail so i did a test recording! it's so cool i love the crap quality. i do hope the memory stick arrives soon though because for the discs i can't get them on my computer (not even a rom drive filesystem mount) without "finalizing" the disc which is like an old camcorder thing. i still think i'll prefer disc recording though even if a limit of 30 minutes (or longer for lower quality) is strict. i like limitations like that

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz anyway when i get the memory stick i will record something silly and exclusive for yarn friends i can’t wait <3

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i also like the separation inherent with using dedicated devices. like i have a DAP, a fiio X1 ii from 2019, and it’s still going strong. it’s perfect for on the go music listening and i never have to worry about like going somewhere with no reception and the music drops out. it’s all local AND the battery lasts longer because i’m not using wi-fi or bluetooth or data. also i can directly access the file system and just add files anytime. this goes for my point & shoot and other devices too. i love this shit i’m such a nerd

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i think what i love about “retro” (relative to me because i was born 2004) is that it has friction but in a different way than modern tech does. sure there’s friction with getting a video from your phone to a computer unless you’re a nerd like me with android and syncthing. but not only is that something that could be but isn’t easier, it’s just… it makes sense for a camcorder from ~2009 to have the kind of friction it does
