@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz come on! Stop giving me ideas when I’m bored, specially when there’s a sewing machine in a room next to mine xD

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org those tuxes are kinda cute but not what i’m looking for! i want a silly stupid looking tux the most lol

@javivf@adn.org.es use 6697 as port, make sure it is using TLS to connect.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de There are some real bangers in your collection! Aro3, the octopus, would look great on a wall.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de A quick search revealed https://www.tux-onlineshop.de/plueschtiere next door to you, but these tuxes look rather ugly. Also, shipping to the US&A is 60 bucks. I bet @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz’s sister can do better. :-)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I was about to say that you can always just buy one, but apparently that’s not so easy anymore?! What the heck happened? 🤨 There used to be several shops here in Germany that sold a variety of Tux plushies, but none of that exists anymore … 😳

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Has that hashing change even be accepted? :-?

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Thanks, I hope so too. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de i know that feeling T__T hope you get some energy soon!!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I CAN’T FUCKING SEW I’M GOING TO BRIBE MY SISTER TO MAKE ME ONE

@bender@twtxt.net Good , glad you agree 👍

@javivf@adn.org.es Sorry. 😂 Meet me on IRC at irc.mills.io in #edgeguard 👌 I’m @james@yarn.mills.io there 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Haha fine 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net where on IRC? Network, channel, nick? IRC is vast! It’s like saying, “meet me in Australia, and we go from there!” 😅

@javivf@adn.org.es Hit me up on IRC or something and we’ll get started 👌

@bender@twtxt.net it’s here!!!! i’m so happy with it :DDD hugo is awesome, i just found astro to be easiest to customize!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz so, where is the site? Show us, show us! I use Hugo exclusively, just a binary. My sites also build upon a commit, on my own VPS. 🙈

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i’m so obsessed like now i actually wanna play with the site more https://bytes.4-walls.net/kat/eunoia-astro

@prologic@twtxt.net hahahah i chose astro!

@prologic@twtxt.net noted!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de yeahhh very true stuff. find is annoying af i just use fd when i can

@prologic@twtxt.net it’s so annoying!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de :DDD

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz You don’t need to change the directory first in line 11, you can just create the directory, that’s sufficient since you’re having an absolute path.

The echo in line 13 is useless, you can simplify this to: newdir="$WD/$now" If you reversed this line with the previous one, you could make use of the variable in the directory creation: mkdir "$newdir".

In line 16, pull the directory change out of the loop upfront. The loop body doesn’t modify the working directory, so no need to reset it with each cycle. In fact, you could even spare the cd altogether when you simply tell find where to look: find "$basedir" -type f….

I didn’t try it, but if I read the manpage correctly, you should be able to simplify line 19 as well:

-C Change to DIR before performing any operations. This option is order-sensitive, i.e. it affects all options that follow.

Hence, remove the cd and put the -C "$WD" as the first argument to tar. Again, I didn’t try it. Proceed with caution.

Finally, you don’t need to specify the full path to rm in line 21. I bet, /bin is in your PATH. When you removed the previous cd from my last suggestion, the relative path that follows won’t work anymore. So, just use the absolute path that you already have in a variable: rm -rf "$newdir"

I hope you find this tiny review a wee bit useful. :-)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Tux plushie is life, Tux plushie is best friend 🤘

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, I’m also having them in my repertoire for ages, so I’m used to the weird command line options. From today’s perspective, they’re not consistent with the rest of the typical shell utilities, that’s for sure.

Regarding find | grep foo, I recommend find -name '*foo*', prologic. Also, I regularly use -type d and -type f to find directories or files.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Nothing wrong with handwritten HTML. That’s often superior to generated stuff I believe. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yeah I actually use sift a lot these days for most “searching” – at least code and text searching. For finding files by name I still use find | grep.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @prologic@twtxt.net Given that all these programs are super old (tar is from the late 1970ies), while trying to retain backwards-compatibilty, I’m not surprised that the UI isn’t too great. 🤔

find has quite a few pitfalls, that is very true. At work, we don’t even use it anymore in more complex scenarios but write Python scripts instead. find can be fast and efficient, but fewer and fewer people lack the knowledge to use it … The same goes for Shell scripting in general, actually.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz It’s also perfectly safe to nuke your cache as well. i.e: rm data/cache* and it’s all good, things will just get rebuilt 👌

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I totally recommend zs 🤣 It powers all my sites! 😅 https://twtxt.dev https://yarn.socia/ https://prologic.dev etc 😎

@prologic@twtxt.net haven’t noticed anything weird in the logs! i’ll let you know if it happens again and monitor more closely though. it was def weird!

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Hmmm Please if this happens again, help me reproduce it. Any clues in the logs? Hmm? 🧐 My own pod has been running flawlessly for weeks now 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Same here, you do get used to things over time and build a sort-of “muscle memory”. But you’re right, maybe they have terrible interfaces and usage options? 🤔

@movq@www.uninformativ.de the flags are SO WEIRD AND CONFUSING especially tar which all look keysmashed and make no sense and the order matters apparently?!?! and find is SO SLOW and when i look at a typical command for it on stack overflow it looks like fucking regex it’s EVILLLLL LMAO

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz What’s wrong with them? I’ve been doing this for so long now, I don’t see the issues anymore. 🤣 (Doesn’t mean they don’t exist.)

@eldersnake@we.loveprivacy.club awww ty! it’s mostly fun stuff and links to my friends :) the buttons have been revived by indie web folks and the people at neocities, it’s super fun!

@bender@twtxt.net I like to self-host 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net you are certainly a special case of a luddite. Or you like to self-punish. Or both! LOL.

@bender@twtxt.net Yeah I know 😢 Don’t have Disney+, hell I don’t have many streaming services at all really 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net yes, @xuu@txt.sour.is was the one who mention it. That’s on Disney+, though.

@bender@twtxt.net Ahh I see. That reminds me, I was going to start watching something someone recommended here hmmm 🧐

@prologic@twtxt.net LOL. It is from the Severance, AppleTV+ series. I am about to finish watching it with my kid—well, what’s available for seeing. The series is still ongoing. I recommend it!

@bender@twtxt.net Huh? 🤔

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz my terrible script https://bytes.4-walls.net/kat/dotfiles/src/branch/main/scripts/Scripts/tinypin-log.sh

@prologic@twtxt.net haha true ig! :‘)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ahh but you’re like one of a very few that actually own domains and do interesting things 😅

@bender@twtxt.net How do you explain mine then? Unless it was registered before me, then let go of and I re-registered it later? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net I will pull the email. The year is about right.

@bender@twtxt.net I’m not sure this is accurate, if you lookup mine:

$ whois shortcircuit.net.au 2>&1 | grep -i creat
created:      1986-03-05

I think this has to be the registrar’s creation date no? 🤔

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org fuck yeah!!! glad you had some fun

@movq@www.uninformativ.de OH SHIT I TOTALLY FORGOT LOL! thanks for telling me! they’re just frontends for ultimate guitar - so these links

https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/fifty-fifty/cupid-twin-version-chords-4667768?no_redirect

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz These are behind a login. 🤔

Thanks to @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz and her shelf I finally spent several hours in the woodshop. I wanted to build two drawers for the workbench and thought that I will complete this project in no time. I’ve been so wrong again. ;-)

I didn’t draw any plans, just measured a few times and then went to cutting a bunch of particle board leftovers at the table saw. I routed rebates on the sides, fronts and backs to lap the boxes and sink in the bottom. It turned out that having no plans was a stupid idea. I cut exactly on the lines as I calculated and measured, however, the math in my head fell apart when it eventually met reality. The bottoms are too short, so I gotta glue on some strips. Also, with the longer fronts, the sides won’t work either, I have to fix them as well. :-D

Finally, the lid of my cyclone bucket broke when the negative pressure got too large. Oh well. It was just an old wood glue bucket, I’ve got another empty one, so I can use that lid but strengthen it first with some plywood. Something for future Lyse to deal with.

All in all, it was still good fun. Wood (haha) do it again, but at least with some sketches on paper. ;-)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz maybe i’ll try to incorporate it into my PHP fanlisting project if i can find a use for an HTMX component

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz i wanna play with HTMX sometime T__T no energy….

@prologic@twtxt.net anubis is THE BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

@anth@a.9srv.net Congrats, that’s pretty cool! Quite some time, I’m impressed.

@prologic@twtxt.net You’ll sometimes find the “Creation Date” in whois. Our domain was registered in 2009. Woah. That’s also been a while, crazy.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yup, that’s Mr. Compiler Explorer. :-)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org … and I realized only now that that’s the guy behind godbolt.org? I never assumed “godbolt” to be a human name, more like some kind of wordplay. 🥴

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I agree with this sentiment 🙌

@prologic@twtxt.net There have always been and there will always be people who have absolutely no clue what they’re doing. I’ve been 100% one of them when I started. Guaranteed, heaps of new SQL injections are born every single day, numbers rising.

That doesn’t justify all the WAF crap in the first place, though. In my opinion it’s just a filthy plaster applied to an injected wound. The software itself must be secure. Otherwise, don’t put that shit on the internet. Probably not even operate it at all. Nowhere. Fix it or throw it in the bin.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @bender@twtxt.net Hahaha! I can’t recall either, maybe even just a chisel or a knive? I’m not terribly good at it, not even close. It’s just fun. And I do it all too rarely. :-/

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com this is awesome!!!!

@terron@duque-terron.cat este gato habla Castellano, o Catalan? Esa oracion suena extranya en Castellano. Yo hubiera escrito:

“En estos momentos, no sé si le está pidiendo a un dios que libere su pueblo felino, o está mirando una paloma.”

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz woodworking is completely down @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org ally. You could really say that he was born with a saw in his hands. Or an axe, I don’t remember.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de a first edition signed Superman comic book, carefully folded just to fit, but not damaged enough to have lost its value?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org oooh that’s a good point! woodworking is scary and i don’t have much room for it but i do have SOME room in mind that could work for it… i feel like i’d just hurt myself in the process though LOL

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz That’s cool. Also, looks like a fun woodworking project in case you exceed the hundred slots. :-) The plywood lap joints might be quite repetetive, but gang cutting them with a story stick or some other fixture shouldn’t be too terrible.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Their gold teeth collection? ;-)

Thanks, @movq@www.uninformativ.de! That seems to be much easier. It’s already implemented in the Python docs as examples of recvmsg(…) and sendmsg(…):

• https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.recvmsg
  
• https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.sendmsg
  

I looked at them sooo many times in order to figure out why my SCM_CREDENTIALS sending code didn’t work. :-D

@prologic@twtxt.net Exactly. 😂 (Texudus.)

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nice! Next up: Passing file descriptors over Unix sockets. 😃

@sorenpeter@darch.dk spot on! xD

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Ahh I see ! 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net ah that’s alright! the banner is just for fun :] it might be easier to skip to the comments with this link if you want (it’s in the site view mode rather than my page’s theme) https://luckyzukky.dreamwidth.org/98451.html?style=site#comments

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz You’ll have to forgive me 🙏 My vision impairment is getting in the way of seeing this “prompt box” thingy 🤣

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah, the post is here! you can check the comments to see my friends and i talking and stuff it’s so fun https://luckyzukky.dreamwidth.org/98451.html

@sorenpeter@darch.dk Hah 😅 Just like how we ‘all just talk about Twtxt right? 🤣

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz This sounds cool! 😎 Can you show me? 🤔

Image

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Look into using something like pyrra for creating and managing SLO(s) with Prometheus 👌 I use this myself actually, plus I also use HetrixTools for external monitoring with SLO-style measures via status.mills.io 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net noted! that all sounds very scary to me but i should lock in for the best experience for my users! (the best experience for my users is my server not crashing most of the time though so i guess the next best experience LOL)

@bender@twtxt.net Me too! She’s awesome 🙌

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I’d recommend alerting off of Prometheus 👌

@xuu@txt.sour.is Cool! I’ll have to give it a watch 👌

@xuu@txt.sour.is a Star Wars series, eh? Never been a fan. I am Trekkie instead; it comes across as more science fiction, less fantasy. Still, I would see it if only we had Disney+. 😩

@prologic@twtxt.net I read a little about her. Looks to be a good fit for the seat she is holding. I hope she gets to keep it.

@bender@twtxt.net Deal!

@prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net That would be fantastic! I encourage you to give feedback or give your experience as an issue: https://codeberg.org/Texudus/website/issues
The specification gives the feeling that it is complete, but there is always gap for small adjustments.

@bender@twtxt.net LMAOOO ty bender!!! everything i do is vibes alone

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz if I haven’t said it before, please allow me to say it now: I kinda like your attitude. Heck, I love it!

@prologic@twtxt.net no clue whenever my servers crash i never know why i just wing it

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Any idea why?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yes, it’s bad, but it’s the message what’s important. Now, if you want, I can give you a different perspective on the site, so that you will not see it as horrible anymore. And I will do for only $199.99. A bargain!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Oh yeah, this is a great article! The site looks quite horrible, but tastes are different. :-)

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I LOVE THIS POST LOL

@movq@www.uninformativ.de hahaha! They sure have a point. There is always the next, shinny bandwagon to jump into.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org it’s thankfully sorted out now but i literally turned on my PC and was like WTF IS GOING ON

@bender@twtxt.net kinda sorta, it’s in a docker container so not a VM but like VM-ish?
