@xuu@txt.sour.is Btw… I noticed your pod has some changed I’m not familiar with, for example you seem to have added metadata to the top of feeds. Can you enumerate the improvements/changes you’ve made and possibly let’s discuss contributing them back upstream? :D

@prologic@twtxt.net in theory shouldn’t need to let users add feeds.. if they get mentioned by a tracked feed they will get added automagically. on a pod it would just need to scan the twtxt feed to know about everyone.

PeerTube v3 is now live with Live Streaming abilities
PeerTube has recently released version 3.0.0, which has added many things, including the ability to livestream. I’ve already updated by PeerTube instance to version 3 (it is linked from this RSS entry), but the link is just videos.lukesmith.xyz .

I’m not sure if I’ll end up immediately using the livestream ability, but it is certainly nice to have a non-YouTube option which is, in fact, self-hosted.

No Moods, Ads or Cutesy Fucking Icons » The Adorable Optimism of the IPCC. https://www.rifters.com/crawl/?p=8433

Love it we have a “contract” developer but he is not in the right group to push commits to the code repo. When I suggested that he be added to the right group one of the other developers was like that will give him access to everything. I’m sorry but what is everything? It’s not like he can pull from any of the repos as it is. Right now he just can’t commit.

It really pisses me off when people use ‘infinite’ to mean ‘really big’. If something’s actually infinite, adding more to it produces the same number (like in Hilbert’s hotel)

@sdk@codevoid.de Well I’ve added the special datetime to my kitbashed client. I store the URL it gets but I’m not doing anything with it right now.

@nblade@nblade.sdf.org: Check my tw.txt file. The specification does not allow a comment. I’ve added this now: 1970-01-01T01:00:00.000000Z▸FF:https://codevoid.de/tw.following.txt. I’d use the special date/time + FF: comment as trigger. This is backwards compatible and shouldn’t really come up in anyones’ timeline.

Any thoughts about decentralized ways to discover twtxt users? I’ve set up https://codevoid.de/tw.following.txt which is my following list plus whatever comes in via user-agent. If everybody would set this up with the with an added .following we could fetch each others list and discover users that way.

I always thought about putting together some sort of micro-blog/journal where I can post my daily brainfarts and list them on my webpage. Now, after adding twtxt to my page I have exactly that. It’s kind of cool.

…and I’ve also added my last tweets to my gopher hole. I don’t know why, but this makes me happy.

Ad Scammers Need Suckers, and Facebook Helps Find Them - Bloomberg https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2018-03-27/ad-scammers-need-suckers-and-facebook-helps-find-them

Hot take: the lack of targetting effectiveness in Cambridge Analytica & Google Ads doesn’t excuse it. There are 4 sins here: taking the data, trying to target with it, targetting poorly, and overselling targetting accuracy. They compound.
