In-reply-to » I've been thinking in the back of my mind for a while now, that the Yarn.social / twtxt + ActivityPub integration was a mistake and a. bad idea. I'm starting to consider it a complete failure.

I understand your thoughts on this, but I would not call it a failure - because you learned a lot from it, and lots of things worked as well.
And there are alternatives for those who needs\wants activitypub, so I think also yarn\twtxt benefits from you focusing on that instead of dealing with the frustrations of activitypub integration. And maybe it’ll feel a bit better to put that on the backburner? :)

In-reply-to » Question to all you Gophers out there: How do you deal with custom errors that include more information and different kinds of matching them?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org do you need to have an explicit Is function? I believe errors.Is has reflect lite and can do the type infer for you. The Is is only really needed if you have a dynamic type. Or are matching a set of types as a single error maybe? The only required one would be Unwrap if your error contained some other base type so that Is/As can reach them in the stack.

As is perfect for your array type because it asserts the matching type out the wrap stack and populates the type for evaluating its contents.

In-reply-to » I had issues with the current activitypub implementation here on yarn (people could not follow me properly) and I cannot see their posts and stuff like that, so I decided to host activitypub separate from here. So I will turn it off here - and use this site has as before - but without activitypub turned on, and then do all my activitypub stuff over on that other service. I can be added through: @stigatle This does not affect the development of the desktop client, I will still work on that, I'm here to stay :) I just need a way to follow the others properly on the other services..

@prologic@twtxt.net no worries :) and as you know I appreciate the work you put into it!

In-reply-to » got two computers donated from work, xeon server machines. set them up for my kids. they do not know that ill give those to them yet. they have been asking about them, and asked if they can play roblox on them and such. they are going to be so happy tomorrow when they get the machines set up in their room tomorrow :)

@wincent@twtxt.net I had one of those blade servers some years back, I could not have it in my house, crazy noise level on those. I almost build a box for it outside the house, haha.

@wincent@twtxt.net No, they are not noisy. I have one of these my self as well, and it does not make much noise (can sleep in the same room). They are not like rack servers with turbo fans, hehe.

In-reply-to » Just ordered a new phone, making the switch from Samsung Android to Iphone. Been a while since I've been excited about getting a new phone. Looking forward to it!

@prologic@twtxt.net it’ll be nice to get away from google for a while. also moved all my cloud files to proton drive (got tired of self-hosting). I want a mac too, the m2 laptop. But that will be later. but Im unsure how software development is done on it, if its easy to for example code your own stuff (c++), and also I have no idea how gui realted things are handled. but that makes it fun as well - figuring out all that stuff.

In-reply-to » Today our daughter has invited her friends over to celebrate her birthday in advance, so we're spending time doing that today :) Going to be a nice day!

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Thanks! It was really nice! They had a great time! And it was warm, but we filled the pool we have at our terrace, and they got to hang out there.
Her actual birthday is tomorrow, so I’m really looking forward to celebrate it! She will get the gift from us that she really wanted so that’ll be nice!

In-reply-to » Home | Tabby This is actually pretty cool and useful. Just tried this on my Mac locally of course and it seems to have quite good utility. What would be interesting for me would be to train it on my code and many projects 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net The hackathon project that I did recently used openai and embedded the response info into the prompt. So basically i would search for the top 3 most relevant search results to feed into the prompt and the AI would summarize to answer their question.

In-reply-to » Russia blowing up the Nova Kakhovka dam is an incomprehensible war crime. Among other things, it drains water from the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, water that is needed for cooling. They are trying to generate a widespread disaster.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci yeah, I see your point. but it’s sad to say it’s better witha blown nuclear reactor the nuke bombs being dropped around. But yeah, hope this shit ends soon. we do not notice it here at all, but the military is ramping up in the north, which is good, and much needed.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I think the problem is that NATO does not want to get directly involved, because that scales up everything.
So they provide with the things they can to help instead. It worries me a bit (even though I live in the South of Norway - and Russia borders in the north), but it helps a lot that we have Sweden and Finland next to us. But if shit hits the fan - then it won’t be easy to get anywhere from here, unless we steal a boat and go to England or something like that (or get on a plane).
I try not to worry, but it’s in the back of my mind still.. But we have talked about it in my family, and if things happen then we have a plan on what to do first.

In-reply-to » @mckinley Yeah, that’s more clear. 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net that would work if it was using shamir’s secret sharing .. although i think its typically 3 of 5 so you get 3, one to the company, and one to the “third party”. so you can recover all you want.. but if the company or 3rd wants to they need one of your 3 to recover.

but still .. if they are providing them then whats the point of trusting they don’t have copies.

In-reply-to » Rebooting a LUKS Encrypted System Without Typing The Passphrase: https://mckinley.cc/blog/20230526.html

@mckinley@twtxt.net Yeah, that’s more clear. 👌

Systems that are on all the time don’t benefit as much from at-rest encryption, anyway.

Right, especially not if it’s “cloud storage”. 😅 (We’re only doing it on our backup servers, which are “real” hardware.)

Reuters reports: The concept of the metaverse includes augmented and virtual reality technologies that allow users to immerse themselves in a virtual world or overlay information digitally on ... ⌘ Read more

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, we had some discussion about it once it was announced. I said what I felt (And I do love VR - but for flight simulators etc) - but I just knew it would fail.
Especially when they showed the ridiculous screenshots that they where so proud of with the quality of 15 years ago.
And they they pushed it as a place to work or have meetings during the pandemic.. haha.
And they did not even use it themselves in the company.

In-reply-to » What is a good device for home virtualization these days? I have been looking at the Intel NUC 13 pro's. Basically I want something "quiet" (ie not a screaming banshee 1U), smallish, but with lots of threads and rams. Disk will come from an external NAS.

@xuu@txt.sour.is What’s your budget?

In-reply-to » I may have misspoken in my haste/anguish. I don't know of any examples of Ben Shapiro advocating rape. I do know them of Jordan Peterson. He's known for that, but I've seen it myself. So, to be clear, I don't know if Ben Shapiro is a rape apologist and have no evidence of that. Wouldn't surprise me frankly because the set of ideas he does talk about tends to include being A-OK with crimes against women, but anyway.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Ben Shapiro has plenty to be ashamed of not the least of which is selling his home to Aquaman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9FGRkqUdf8

In-reply-to » Went to the barber shop today. Got a nice talk and, surprisingly, my first "contract" to 3D print something. So, I spent the last hour reading about QR codes, versions and patterns and rescue data to embed an image in the centre of the code. Then it took me some time to convert it from a PNG to an SVG to an STL, so I can put it into Tinkercad to design the new plate. I now have a baseplate, a backplate with the QRCode & two smaller plates which I have to glue into placeholders on the backplate.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net That looks cool!

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net any photos on how it turned out?
