If you can read this my twtxt (including my twtxt #xmpp bot) is up and running again. 😀
The twtxt.xyz domain is a 1000 days old and expires on 2020-04-07. Wondering if anyone will renew it?
Happy New Year Twtxt!
@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.
@xandkar@xandkar.net Welcome to Twtxt! Noticed a typo in your twtxt user-agent handle. It is pointing to txtxt.txt.
@lucidiot@tilde.town Hmm, maybe I mixed up things. I also couldn’t find any source. 😔
@lucidiot@tilde.town I think I’ve heard it’s using #XMPP but I don’t find a source right now.
@sixbitproxywax@sixbitproxywax.com if I didn’t livetxt Apple presentations, one-per-decade would probably be enough for me. However…I might just get lazy and chop them up into one-per-decade things anyway.
@sixbitproxywax@sixbitproxywax.com it’s not obviously broken if you ask me…
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?
@kas@enotty.dk I aliased ls to exa and nothing broke. With any luck, nothing’ll break for you, either.
@johanbove@johanbove.info A better question: Are you real enough for yourself?
Twtxt is real enough. Feels funny to be so open writing here, yet nobody knows twtxt.txt is here - part of the charm
@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.
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net They’ll just buy a new TV. 🙄
https://registry.twtxt.org << certificate has expired
Oh sweet! There is a twtxt directory at http://twtxt.xyz
@lucidiot@tilde.town @kas@enotty.dk Thx, will play with that. 😃
@lucidiot@tilde.town @kas@enotty.dk Oh, I found out my android keyboard also can easily do … But how do you do this on Linux?
@lucidiot@tilde.town I had this idea. I can probably just set the gz header and send gzip. The request is ending up in a cgi script written in C, which assemples the response. I can do pretty much everything there…
@gbmor@gbmor.dev Your certificate has expired…
@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.
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net: Have you ever looked at pfsense? Once I started, I never touched a DD-WRT again.
@von@tilde.town: I stole the idea from a random webpage that listed a finger address for contact information. I would assume it’s pretty effective against spam ;)
@lucidiot@tilde.town Good one! :-)
@kas@enotty.dk Thanks for the suggestion using Keybase. Playing around with the authenticity idea.
Signing my twtxt with my johanbove@keybase.io account from today onwards
@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.
@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?
@kas@enotty.dk I like your gopher server’s formatting, nice and clean and how did you implement the TLS certificate?
twtxt feels a little like launching simple digital bottle notes into the vast oceans of the Internet
@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.
@von@tilde.town You’ll probably want a separate BuJo if you have a bunch of work-only tasks. One of the nice things about OmniFocus is that it can be really good at hiding tasks you can’t make headway on at the moment for one reason or another, assuming you tag things appropriately.
@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.
@adiabatic@www.frogorbits.com True. The battery life is great - especially since it is new. FaceID is very handy indeed. The bigger screen estate is amazing too. Also esim might be cool - if only my provider would support it.
@johanbove@johanbove.info there’s also the extended battery life (an unambiguous plus) and FaceID (probably a plus for most people). Me, I miss my hand-sized SE.
@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.
@kas@enotty.dk I’m tempted to split my file once per decade.
@johanbove@johanbove.info An iPhone XR as opposed to…?
@johanbove@johanbove.info oh, that helps. Thanks!
@von@tilde.town yeah, I stopped posting to it eventually.
@kas@enotty.dk Good stuff kas++ What command or script did you use to split by year?
@von@tilde.town Understanding you. For me: keeping a bullet-journal on a paper notebook helped me herd my chaotic mind into manageable streams. See https://bulletjournal.com
@von@tilde.town having topic-specific twtxt feeds is not a silly idea. Not sure if the clients allow easy switching though.
@kas@enotty.dk twtxt.txt file splitting for achival is an interesting idea. Should not need to be yearly only. High volume feeds could split faster. Needs a spec though.
@reednj@twtxt.xyz Thanks for making and hosting http://twtxt.xyz - the agreggation of twtxts users, tweets and tags is really cool
Made my own super basic twtxt client in 3 lines of code as a bashrc function. #l33t
@adiabatic@www.frogorbits.com the 0 indicates the txt file type in gophermaps. Gopherholes are made up of mostly plain text files. Does that answer your question?
twtxt is über cool
@johanbove@johanbove.info a random question from someone who’s used Gopher clients a little bit recently but doesn’t quite understand all the memes: Why are numbered directories like “/0/” common on Gopher holes (but not websites)?
@von@tilde.town re: hidden twtxt: I’ve done this. It was fun.
@kas@enotty.dk that said, I have no idea who bothers looking at the commented-out portions of others’ twtxt files. I only bother on rare occasions. Sometimes, there are interesting easter-eggy things to see.
@kas@enotty.dk doesn’t seem like a bad idea. I suppose I should do that one day too eventually, but I haven’t livetweeted enough Apple events to bloat my file to where I’d want to bother.
One of the biggest twtxt feed files I could find is still only 127 KB big
@von@tilde.town Why do you want to keep your twtxt.txt more private if I may ask so?
@mdom@domgoergen.com The news site at gopher://taz.de:70/ is really cool. How did you make it?
Discovered some new twtxt followers by glancing at my web server logs.. Feeling so l33t now.
@mdosch@mdosch.de I thought it was a nice practice to share interesting twtxt-ers through a follow tweet
@johanbove@johanbove.info Seems something went wrong and you tweeted your following list.
Added clients and articles sections and added domgoergen’s twtxt.txt to https://indieweb.org/twtxt
// todo Create a Kaios client for twtxt
@kas@enotty.dk The IndieWeb.org twtxt article is only a stub - me copy-pasting content from other sites - could use some more sections - @t himself found it an interesting concept
@ckeen@pestilenz.org I just joined :-) Happy there are still other peepz active on twtxt.
@c-keen I just joined :-) Happy there are still other peepz active on twtxt.
Added myself to the user list at https://github.com/mdom/we-are-twtxt
Created an Indieweb.org wiki article about twtxt - help expand it please - https://indieweb.org/twtxt
domgoergen also has been twtxt tweeting for a while: https://domgoergen.com/twtxt/mdom.txt
kas has an amazing twtxt feed: https://enotty.dk/twtxt.txt

@davebucklin@davebucklin.com Welcome to the IndieWeb! Thanks also for introducing me to #twtxt. Gophering this for sure.
Hello, this is twtxt!
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Those things you swallow when you have a headache. (It’s a The Matrix reference.)
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Did it try to POST any pills?
@lucidiot@tilde.town You are heard. 😁
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net @adiabetic@www.frogorbits.com I’m really not into MacOS so I had no idea what Catalina might be. But I like the zsh. 😃
@mdosch@mdosch.de Apple refuses to ship GPLv3 software. bash has security bugs that Apple doesn’t want to backport. So they’ve switched default shells again, this time to zsh. (bash and the previous default, tcsh, still ship with the OS.)
@mdosch@mdosch.de @freemor@freemor.homelinux.net was right. The latest (but not the greatest) macOS.
@adiabetic@www.frogorbits.com What is Catalina? A new shell?
@von@tilde.town I moved my family to xmpp. For friends you might consider quicksy that works like WhatsApp but you can reach them via normal xmpp. Maybe you will also find some interesting groupchats there: https://search.jabber.network/rooms/1
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Yeah, jabber.org is in a bad shape. I have an old account there and ‘donated’ it to the conversations compliance tester. Was afraid when I saw the result.
@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Sure the j*u*abber is not a typo?
@fortune-hourly-bot@www.thunix.net Too much!
@von@tilde.town Good luck. I wrote poems twice for a girl. They were rather short, the girls name length in lines. And if you read the lines first character from bottom to top you got, … I guess that’s obvious. 😁
@von@tilde.town I am no dev and I have to use what the company uses.
@von@tilde.town I envy you for being able to use #Linux at work.
@mdom@domgoergen.com Looks good now. Thx!
@kasdk@enotty.dk I am testing the txtnish fix from @mdom@domgoergen.com.
@dave@davebucklin.com Did you type that out with your knuckles, or did you use voice recognition, or…? ;)
@kas@enotty.dk Your link made it into the libraries test. 😂 https://github.com/FluuxIO/go-xmpp/commit/005c8823d9a3d57c133737f1f889658c3ddb869b
@kas@enotty.dk (re @ ) The ‘%F %f %s’ doesn’t make problems now as I quick and dirty added replacing % with %%. 😁
statically generated my twtxt feed here: https://pbat.ch/wiki/twtxt.html. learning how to be social on this thing comes next.
testing out auto-generation of twtxt wiki page now
@kas@enotty.dk Didn’t know of this one. Will try it, THX.
@kas@enotty.dk Oh, it’s so bad? I created an issue. So you might comment there if you have knowledge of possible vulnerabilities. https://github.com/FluuxIO/XMPP/issues/6
