@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 … 😳

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

little blog post on how i got my astro site to automatically build & deploy with my git instance + sourcehut builds yayyy https://bubblegum.girlonthemoon.xyz/articles/14

@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

good morning. i want a tux plushie so bad i am going to eat drywall

ugh hearing XG rap over a rock arrangement of woke up is a transcendent experience. best female rappers in k-pop right now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OShP_a6g-3A

I have zero mental energy for programming at the moment. 🫤

I’ll try to implement the new hashing stuff in jenny before the “deadline”. But I don’t think you’ll see any texudus development from me in the near future. ☹️

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

That should minimise the need for muting all those awkward feeds, I figure. :-D Sounds good!

I’m also thinking of adding eye-off icon next to every Twt that, when clicked, hides that feed (tooltip: “Hide this feed”). This would work with the filters as a “temporary additive filter” to restrict/control the current view.

I’m thinking of bringing back filters (this time not as a feature flag, just baked in): New filters: Hide Feed, Hide Bots, Hide News, Media Only, No Replies, Local Only — toggle to trim noise & surface the Twts you care about.

#<2025-05-10T19:34:00+00:00 https://andros.dev/texudus.txt> Nice:) And is this implemented in your client as well? I’ve started to brainstorm on how to parse texudus in php, but I guess it could snatch some code from you?

@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 👌

Was feeling kind of blue, then a bird pooped on me

@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

that site of mine i mentioned earlier? well it’s now statically generated with astro, AND it automatically builds and deploys after i push changes to my own git instance, with the power of sourcehut builds! this is so cool

@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

YouTube just went from this:

Why.

Red for “activated” and dark gray for “deactivated” was easy to recognize.

Now we have light gray for “activated” and dark gray for “deactivated”. It’s clearly worse.

Why, why, why.

@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. :-)

Farrrk me Google search is and these days. Will they please “fuck off” with this Gemini AI garbage at the top that takes forever and is distracting as shit™ 💩 Fark me 🤦‍♂️ #Google #Search #Sucks #AI #Gemini

@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 😎

i got so emo about my site not being statically generated and instead hand coded but it’s like i don’t even know if i want that because i feel most SSGs are built for blogging and continuous posting and i don’t want that i just want to make my silly pages….

that being said, the one i’d use if i did switch to one would be astro and that one is so flexible i could really do anything with it including keeping my pages as is mostly without doing the blog stuff. idk! something to consider

i still want a tux plushie ngl. i’m gonna draft my sister (she can sew) into making me one

@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.)

The album I got by accident is starting to grow on me. Not that bad. 🤔 It’s Dredg – El Cielo, btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4JB8rmXaO8&list=PLRASiMqDV8psZSFQi7nUX4p0R8oRHbUy_&index=1

last night my timeline randomly reset to only show my own recent twts and i restarted my instance a few times and pulled from main and shit and it didn’t change but it seems fine now lol?!

@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 🤣
