Found twtxt again 🎉

@prologic@prologic.github.io Could you make the polling of your server a little slower please? Thanks.

@uninformativ@www.uninformativ.de Welcome to Twtxt! Liking your introduction article and your Gopherhole is awesome.

My account at https://twtxt.net was deleted due to a server malfunction, but sysop @prologic@twtxt.net came to the rescue.

plans for weewiki: a zettelkasten-like interface, a microblogging platform inspired by !twtxt, and some utilities for managing collections of SQLar archives. #updates #halfbakedideas

@lucididiot@tilde.town thank you for the backup! i agree that wiki is in dire need of some maintenance but that hardly seems like a reason to just up and delete it…

@vain@www.uninformativ.de NOICE. I’m gonna read it later today when i get out of work. also Re: bilingual blogging, i do english and spanish but i mostly try to keep the contents separated

@xandkar@xandkar.net I’m going to give it a shot. always interested in trying new clients

@vain@www.uninformativ.de your twtxt setup looks nice. It looks like what i’d like to do in some time when i’m better at Go

@vain@www.uninformativ.de :O nice catch! please tell me you’re gonna post lots of screenshots somewhere?

@birb@twtxt.net good mAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAArning, my king

@prologic@twtxt.net @birb@twtxt.net It’s a bit difficult for me since i’m mostly maintaining my off-pod file. I wonder if this reply will reach either of you.

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t automate anything but I have sensors in every room to warn me if the humidity is too high and one in the fridge to warn if it’s too warm/cold via xmpp message. It’s working pretty well and was not expensive. I have fhem running on a raspberry pi which also serves other services.

@birb@twtxt.net are you Questionable Content’s Yelling Bird in disguise? hi there

@vain@www.uninformativ.de nice. i’m gonna get on that, then.

@vain@www.uninformativ.de huh, i guess i still fully haven’t figured out followings yet. also hi, nice to see a familiar face around here.

@prologic@twtxt.net to answer some of your previous questions, i’m using txtnish for my timeline and user controls, and plain twtxt for posting. the alternative to that would be setting up a bunch of shell aliases or small scripts. or making my own client in Go. There’s a thought… ;)

@prologic@twtxt.net hello. i didn’t realize you had written to me, i didn’t have you on my follow list yet.

i post through twtxt but manage my followers through txtnish… this doesn’t feel right

i didn’t think clients would be necessary for something like twtxt and yet here we are

@prologic@twtxt.net (#https://twtxt.net/search?tag=tsvhqdq OK. Im upgrading my tools. twtxt works pretty well inside an Emacs shell window…

@prologic@twtxt.net I’\“ve thought through the git issue a bit. Comments on https://github.com/jointwt/twtxt/issues/38

in the original twtxt your URL is your identity. No need for anyone outside your control to do account managment. One reason I’ll likely be sticking with command line. But, great work

FWIW, I put up a quick blog last night about using twtxt command line https://eludom.github.io/blog/hello_twtxt/

What flavor or regexp? I tried here https://regexr.com/ with both PCRE and JavaScript and neither seems quite right. I’m relatively good with regexps, but they tend to be write-only :-/

yes. I read that. Nice post. Brave browser at least has trouble with formatting. The regexp got lost when renederd. Eww (emacs text browser) doees just fine with it :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net I tried to sign up @gmj@www.port111.com on twtxt.net, but it said it was already signed up … maybe beause of my command line posts? Any way I can claim gmj?

@prologic@twtxt.net what is the exact syntax neeed for threads to work in the subject, e.g. will (#tsvhqdq) do it? The whole … (#tsvhqdq) thing seems like a bit of overkill. Too many characters.

as the person who motivated CompuServe’s USENET gateway https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1994-10-07-9410070309-story.html I’ve see what happens when the unwashed masses are turned loose in techie playgrounds

One very real problem to be aware of is “Eternal September” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September

one problme I’m seeing already is that the “micro” part is loosing out. Things are routinely getting longer than 140 characters

@prologic@twtxt.net I will probably stick with command line client just to make sure it keeps working

@prologic@twtxt.net and the fact that I just used /bin/ed to fix spelling before pushing :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net also the lack of a login and complete decntralization is a big win.

@prologic@twtxt.net twtxt is so simple one could read with netcat, cat and tail. I like that.

@prologic@twtxt.net For now I think I will stay with primitave tools.

Thanks @prologic@twtxt.net

if you thought emails were great at getting stuff lost, wait til you check out this thing called twtxt

@eli_oat@txt.eli.li happy to be an enabler :) I keep finding new uses for Janet as well! It has proven to be a remarkable extension language for !weewiki.

Hey @prologic@twtxt.net! still figuring out how to reply to people. I’m based in the New England in the US. What about you?

added a twtxt activity section on the !monolith page

A fork of twtxtc, a #twtxt client in C: [[https://github.com/neauoire/twtxtc]] #links

well, I missed my one-year #twtxt anniversary by a few days. yay?

@eli_oat@txt.eli.li Oh my! Ended up down a fraidyc.at rabbit hole! Thanks! (I think ;-) )

@lyxal@twtxt.net My thoughts exactly! :-D

@hjertnes@hjertnes.social There was. New watches and non-pro iPads.

@prologic@twtxt.net So far it doesn’t mean much but being a member is a precondition to participate in the work teams. I want to join the editor team https://xmpp.org/about/xsf/editor-team and maybe also the commteam https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/CommTeam

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, busy with work and life. 😂 Also I got voted into the #XSF so probably I’ll be more busy with #XMPP im the future. How are you doing?

@eli_oat@txt.eli.li After failing to say that twice, I’d be reaching for… a thesaurus? Baby names?

setup monit to connect and verify that my twtxt page is available

@reednj@twtxt.xyz still alive!

Renabling twtxt on my blog.

@lukem@twtxt.net Nice. As I don’t know how to create an android app I just wrote an xmpp bot for using twtxt. It’s probably very hacky as I am no programmer at all.

@lucidiot@tilde.town I’ll link it here once I am ready!

@coma@tilde.town hello! good to see you on twtxt again!

@prologic@prologic.github.io I will probably check out twtxt.net later. Can we use it without registering for an account?

@Leo@www.gkbrk.com Sorry to disappoint. I think I have Finger running on my Raspberrypi but didn’t make it public.

Hello Twtxt from a Xubuntu 18.04 machine!

@hjertnes@hjertnes.social What are you doing to have wikilinks in Hugo?

@hjertnes@hjertnes.social is there anything else than death metal? 🧐

@eli_oat@txt.eli.li thanks for reading my wiki! janet is pretty cool right? happy noodling.

built a little script for looking up IDs in twtxt tweets: !twtxt_search. Going to use it as a way to look up and reference specific tweets in my wiki.

@inan@tilde.team hello

@mdosch@mdosch.de Oh wow. I thought Apple was the only org out there shipping zsh by default. What was their rationale for not defaulting to bash?

@hjertnes@hjertnes.social rebel.

@hjertnes@hjertnes.social are you using emacs as twtxt client or something? does it render the org markup for you into links?

@lucidiot@tilde.town very cool idea! may have to try something like that at some point…

It turns out that fts5 is enabled by default on SQLite! My twtxt2sqlite generator has been updated to use fts5. Now I can do full text search on all my twtxt tweets. I have implemented a related-tweets box in the !twtxt_playground as a proof-of-concept. More info on fts5 can be found at [[https://www.sqlite.org/fts5.html]].

documenting my experiments with twtxt/weewiki integration at the !twtxt_playground

here is the script I use to convert my twtxt feed into a SQLite database: !twtxt_sqlite

a new twtxt/weewiki feature: any word starting with ‘!’ will translate to an internal weewiki reference in my HTML renderer. Example: here is my !wiki_index

a unique thing I do with my twtxt feed is convert it to a SQLite database. This, combined with the Janet + SQLite scripting abilities available in SQLite, could provide interesting metrics and insights over time.

in particular, twtxt provides timestamps. weewiki doesn’t really track the passage of time. it only wants to be a key/value database with org markup.

made a script that simplifies making twtxt entries. let’s see how well it works…

@adiabetic@www.frogorbits.com I like #ZSH (I’m using it with the #grml config).

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Doing everything in the browser is indeed terrible. But I have to admit that e.g. jitsi-meet for a/v conferences is pretty neat. You just share the link and password and everybody can join without installing and configuring a new software.

@mdosch@mdosch.de Right. I can only last about 15–25 minutes in a 80°C sauna. An ambient temperature of 90°F (32°C) is also unpleasant, but not nearly as bad. I’ll use my iPad indoors when it’s 90°F during the peak of the heat of the day, but I wouldn’t want to take it into a 90°C sauna.

@mdosch@mdosch.de I’m American. All I know about 90°C is that it‘s a reasonable sauna temperature; the literature tends to focus on saunas at 80°C and 100°C. I haven’t been in a sauna in months, and my body misses it.

@tolstoevsky@tolstoevsky.ml You’re version of fzf is too old then. Reload was added in https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/issues/1750

@prologic@prologic.github.io You can import twtxts config via txtnish quickstart. I hope that still works… ?!

Hello, twtxt, and xxiivv members.

Hello, twtxt, and xxiivv members.

@lahvak@lahvak.github.io I use this tiling WM for macOS that also works on Windows: https://code.visualstudio.com/

@johanbove@johanbove.info I can’t listen to podcasts and contribute to open source at the same time.

As it seems to be not well known I advertise it again: Please join the (inofficial) #twtxt #XMPP room at xmpp:twtxt@chat.mdosch.de?join

@dgold@dgold.eu I’ve heard a lot of people successfully run Linux on Macbooks. Never tried it myself as they are too expensive for me.

@mdosch@mdosch.de because its what I have. i don’t have the funds to replace it with something more powerful. Am considering wiping it and slapping a linux on.

@dgold@dgold.eu Why do you use mac of you don’t like it? 🤣
