@doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt I happy to be very good friends with the founder of IRCCloud who happens to be also my namesakes 😅
@sorenpeter@darch.dk I started out with Konversation (KDE IRC client) but then moved to weechat over a decade later or so. I just like the terminal. In both setups I was just online when my computer was running.
Recently, @bender@twtxt.net made me finally switch to weechat in a tmux session on my server: tmux new -s irc
and then run weechat
inside. On my local computer I then simply attach to that session, even got an alias for that: alias irc='ssh -t isobeef tmux attach -t irc'
I’m now basically online 24/7 and can skip over the new messages in the backlog by hand when I start my local computer. :-D
I’m very happy with that. Can’t imagine ever going back right now. I’m also wondering why it took me all those years to finally make the small step. Happy IRCing!
@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Ugh, do we really need more brainrot, even if it is more open? 😅
@bender@twtxt.net Yeah I mostly read IRC backlogs on mobile, very rarely talk per se 😅
@sorenpeter@darch.dk I can IRC on mobile, but I choose not too. It is not as easy as when using a desktop computer.
@sorenpeter@darch.dk I use TheLounge. Similar to the one @prologic@twtxt.net uses, but self hosted. Always connected.
The Fediverse Is Getting Its Own TikTok Competitor Called Loops
An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: Similar to how Mastodon offers an open source, distributed version of X, the fediverse is getting its own TikTok competitor. This week, an app called Loops began accepting signups on its new platform for sharing short, looping videos. Still in the early stages, Loops is not yet open sourced, nor … ⌘ Read more
Yeah 😔
@sorenpeter@darch.dk@darch.dk I use ITCCloud, am always online via my Desktop and ITC from the mobile app.

What are peoples #IRC setup? Do you have your own bouncer server or just have a you computer always on? And do you IRC on mobile?
Well for iPhones 15 Pro and 16 Pro Max, and all on the 16 line.
iOS 18.1 is out. It brings the beginning of Apple Intelligence.
@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, that’s what I don’t understand about this behavior. Once you put up a web server on the internet, you’ll be hit by so many bots instantly – the few hits on my twtxt file hardly matter … 🤷
@bender@twtxt.net I tend to agree 👍
Neycer Robalino vs Hayden Green – Brisbane Flexi Season (Week 3) Div 1 Final - YouTube This is Neycer one of our coaches at the table-tennis club 🏓 that I play at vs. Hayden a top-rated QLD player (well not anymore 🤣). What a match! 😱 Go #Brisbane #Table-Tennis #BTTA
@prologic@twtxt.net no, no, I haven’t said anything about turning of smartypants! That would be a step backwards, right? I mean, ¼ is the way to represent a fraction, so its rendering is right spot on.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com To be honest I thought the same too, I felt as though you were being a bit too harsh on yourself 😅 Chill 🤗
@bender@twtxt.net True, I’m just not sure we can have it both way? 🤔 I can turn smartypants off, but I do seem to recall you wanted it on 🤣
@movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net Oh yeah, cool, thanks! Wow, the number of strings picked up a lot over time.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org the name of the instrument is Guzheng. She is amazing, wow! @movq@www.uninformativ.de, she never shows her face, it is her artist’s “signature” behaviour.
@prologic@twtxt.net right, but that uses code/pre
. Don’t get me wrong, whatever works, it works.
@Codebuzz@www.codebuzz.nl I agree. At the end of the day it’s just a text file served by some means, we should get more upset by crawlers that don’t respect our robots.tzt rules 🤣
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oof! That’s impressive. (And what an interesting mask that is.)
That harp (or whatever you wanna call this instrument) playing is very fascinating to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=564u39PJfUI
@falsifian@www.falsifian.org hmm, Smartypants does that. I am not sure there is a way to escape it. One could write “1 of 4”, or 1 / 4 (not sure how this last will render).
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com let me come to the defence of Aelaraji here, and make clear that they are not a “piece of shit”! 😊
(I screwed up the commit message and force-pushed a fix after checking the web server logs. I hope I didn’t break anybody’s repo. 😂)
This should be fixed in Git. ✅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ahh thanks! 🙏
@prologic@twtxt.net Yep, looks alright. I just amended two typos: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtxt.dev/pulls/3
Absolutely, @movq@www.uninformativ.de. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net Unless somebody decides to change nicknames (which happened before).
V:
pattern itself is quite good because you can do quite a lot of powerful things with selected text.
@aelaraji@aelaraji.com It even shows up here too 😅 44 feeds you follow, nice 👍
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’ll merge it then 👌

Feeling suspicious about a little something and I, don’t like it -the feeling- a bit. Maybe I’m just being paranoid… but most probably I’m just being an ignorant judgemental piece of shit and I hate myself for it already.
tw.txt
file wherever". The essence of micro-blogging, as opposed to full-scale blogging, is low friction and low stakes. Imposing a norm that you can't just use any ol' url, looking down on people with insufficently cool urls (as in "Cool URIs don't change" https://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI), puts up too much of a barrier to entry.
@bender@twtxt.net Right, so a “Cool Domain” is just a URI in your Domain space that you control and maintain stability. As you control the Domain Space, you can keep URI(s) stable even in the face of change. Okay.
But what I don’t get is @asquare ’s comment:
Imposing a norm that you can’t just use any ol’ url, looking down on people
@asquare Who’s imposing this and “looking down”? If you got that impression from me, that was not my intent. I’m merely pointing out the problem we have, nothing more. We need to solve for that.

@asquare@asquare.srht.site What do you mean by “Cool URLs”?
IMHO, the original spec had it right when it said (paraphrased) “just upload your tw.txt
file wherever”. The essence of micro-blogging, as opposed to full-scale blogging, is low friction and low stakes.

Yup that’s right.
