as i just setup proxy for minio, they start to charge lmao, gotta change my file storage solution.
this pod was hosted on the mini box too, should I also move gitea to it?
also, imma think a name for the shitbox and tape on it 👌🏽
nice, i just learned how to follow somebody from the other pod/mastodon
insert me tapping on a mic is this thing on???
QR codes, already posted about them in the last two posts, but I want to hear your hot takes: Should they only be black and white, are they even worth doing in 2025, incorporating them into things,..?
Also, finally getting full screen view for avatars in XMPP - a better integrated one, after 25 years. Y@ay!
I sent you my QR code, please respond!
*for context: long ago, there were some complaints, about some of my sitting drawings, where the legs are apart, not using dithering/more shading and one of my favourite artists, made a video, exploring the use of QR codes, in art
P.S.: the code just redirects to my websites
Buying a TV these days, means trying to avoid endless enshitification:
-Spyware and adware
-Shitty AI upscaling/ frame interpolation
-HW that breaks after 2 - 3 years
-One off OS, dead on arrival
-Android OS, that starts lagging after the third update
-8 buttons worth of ads, on your remote
You probably have to make some kind of a compromise. I thought that was buying from some other brand like Hyundai, but that one also felt into some of those categories and just broke, after less than 3 years of use. At this point I’ll probably go back to LG and hope their HW is still reliable and the rest manageable… It has AI bullshit and knowing LG, probably some spyware you have to try your best to get rid of, can buy a remote with “only” 2 ads on it, some web-based OS shared between all their TVs, that usually gets 4 - 5 years worth of updates and works decently enough afterwards.
At this point, I’ll probably settle for anything that doesn’t literally fall apart, not even 3 years in, like the Hyundai did.
My icon on here will never not crack me up. It’s so low quality, it feels like a facebook mom meme. Perfect for random corners of the indie web.
I’ve been poking around with #Crowdsec for the past couple of days, had to deal with a lot of false paositives but I’m starting to get it. I’ve even hooked it up with #Ntfy just because I can. Now I should try making my own scenarios and see how it goes.
En estos momentos, no sé si un dios le está pidiendo que libere su pueblo felino o está mirando una paloma

Nobody want to be a shitty programmer. The question is: Do you do anything not to not be one?
Reading blogs or social media and watching YouTube videos is fun. After them, your code may be a little better, of course. But you need a lot. You need to study! Read good books and study the code of other programmers, for example. Maybe work with a new language, architectures and paradigms. You need break the routine.
If you know Object-oriented programming, you learn functional programming.
If you know Model-View-Controller, you learn Model-View-ViewModel.
If you don’t know anything about architectures, you learn Clean Architecture, Hexagonal Architecture, etc.
If you know Python, you learn Ruby or Go.
If you know Clojure or Lisp… you don’t need to learn anything else. You are already a good programmer. Just kidding. You can learn Elixir or Scala.
Be a good programmer my friend.
I’ve just released version 1.0 of twtxt.el (the Emacs client), the stable and final version with the current extensions. I’ll let the community maintain it, if there are interested in using it. I will also be open to fix small bugs.
I don’t know if this twt is a goodbye or a see you later. Maybe I will never come back, or maybe I will post a new twt this afternoon. But it’s always important to be grateful. Thanks to @prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de @eapl.me@eapl.me @bender@twtxt.net @aelaraji@aelaraji.com @arne@uplegger.eu @david@collantes.us @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt @xuu@txt.sour.is @sorenpeter@darch.dk for everything you have taught me. I’ve learned a lot about #twtxt, HTTP and working in community. It has been a fantastic adventure!
What will become of me? I have created a twtxt fork called Texudus (https://texudus.readthedocs.io/). I want to continue learning on my own without the legacy limitations or technologies that implement twtxt. It’s not a replacement for any technology, it’s just my own little lab. I have also made a fork of my own client and will be focusing on it for a while. I don’t expect anyone to use it, but feedback is always welcome.
Best regards to everyone.

We havet an AI assistant at work, new version came out today “nearby restaurant recommendations” mentioned. Gotta try that!
Ask it where I can get a burger, knowing there’s 3 spots that had it on the menu, AI says there’s none. Ask it to list all the restaurants nearby it can check… it knows 3, of the 10 or so around, but 1/3, even has a burger, on the menu.
Ask it to list the whole menu at restaurant 1: it hallucinates random meals, none of which they had (I ate there).
Restaurant 2 (the one most people go to, so they must have at least tested it with this one): it lists the soup of the day and ¾ meals available. Incomplete, but better than false.
Restaurant 3: it says “food” and gives a general description of food. You have to be fucking kidding me!
“BuT cAnInE, tHe A(G)i ReVoLuTiOn Is NoW”
In Spain, electricity has already been restored. Amazing experience! Luckily, I will only have to throw away some food. But there are stories of all kinds. It has been 12 hours where we have gone back to the middle ages.
After 12 hours of power outage and almost a proper rest I feel uncommonly full of energy

i feel like i’ve stumbled upon an alternative internet universe, gemini protocol, the small internet and a counter-cultural world!
I decided to use Imagor to optimise and transform the images into a stream. I am very happy with the results!
It is written in Go and is easy to run in Docker.

Also, I should cut down on coffee. Seriously, I’ve nearly had a … I honestly don’t know what it was; A Panic attack? A heart attack? I dunno, I just felt like my heart and lungs were so about to burst I had to go for a run to cope.
at this point I am surviving today out of spite, what a dogshit day fuck u tuesday how dare u
This one just occurred to me randomly.
I open a discussion thread: why didn’t the registers work? Will they work later?
#twtxt
also I may have forgor to bookmark this when I started using zen primarily instead of librewolf hallo timeline again

I am not doing good tonight, twtxt nation. But at least my hair is bangin.
Realized I could definitely have a silly gameplay montage youtube channel if I wanted to. All of my best video editing has been goofy visual gags… I could do it…
What does “lock in” mean & why does everyone need to do it?
I desperately need to sort through my password managers & purge old accounts T_T
Some A hole has been trying to pull every single Twtxt feed that existed/still exists since forever. How do I know? Welp’ They’ve been querying my Timeline™ instance for all of it, every single twtxt file and twt Hash they can find. 😆🤦 It must have been going on for days and I have just noticed… + it’s all coming from the same ASN AS136907 HWCLOUDS-AS-AP HUAWEI CLOUDS
Thank you Huawei for the DDos you sons of Glitches!!!
I do not agree with every decision the Internet Archive makes, but I consider it a very important tool, for Internet archival and preservation - to the point, it even influenced what licence I chose, for my media and websites.
Sadly they’re now facing another threat, in the form of litigious music labels, that they’re now trying to convince to stop, by collecting signatures here.
Just keeping this shell alive, and sending an useful twtxt in the process. :-P
It’s ready 🥳! https://dm-echo.andros.dev/

I don’t ask much from browser or OS, just that it doesn’t spy on me.

AI problems, top to bottom:
1: Open AI nerds, believe fine tuning a language model algorithm, will eventually produce an AGI god.
2: Subpar artists and techbros who can’t code, convinced AI image bashing and vibe coding, will help convince the dumber parts of Internet, they are a real deal.
3: Parasites, using AI to scam people, because they just want passive income, selling crap, made by an automated process.
Side: Adobe&co, killing Flash/old web, pricing new artists and developers out, to face learning curves of free tools, or use AI, peddled as solution.
The new toy has arrived and is ready to be cleansed of it’s pre-installed Win 10 pro (yuck!) …
@prologic@twtxt.net I’m not sure if that’s an intended behaviour but twtxt.net’s home page doesn’t load more than 13 twts, no more pagination/infinite scrolling…
