Hey @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org thanks for noticing. I think I had a DNS record pointing to the old IPv6 host. Is the issue gone now?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I know web server which reject request with Referrer header

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ja, eine kleine Inventur vorab kann auch nicht schaden. Der Bestand an Erdankern, Heringen und Gaskartuschen ist durch mich die Tage schon wieder aufgestockt worden.
Wo das Gas bleibt weiß ich. Warum die Befestigungen immer weniger werden, obwohl wir durchzählen (!), ist mir unbekannt. Vielleicht sind wir im Zahlenraum von 1 bis 20 einfach nur noch sehr unsicher. 🤓

Bald geht’s in den Urlaub. Nach Dänemark und auf die Insel Fehmarn. Alles mit dem neuen Zelt, welches wir dringen mal zum Probieren aufbauen sollten. 🤔

ROFL 🤣 I’ve just read from someone on the Fedi, that Bluesky has started asking people for ID

/ME feels like melting fater than a bowl of Icecream. Weeeeee… 🫠😅

Heute im Support-Kanal: Schrödingers Laptop

… der Laptop fährt weder runter noch hoch …

After drawing the bigger canine stickers, I also want to change my profile picture for summer, to something more fluffy, shaded and a bit smug looking.

I was this 🤏 close to buying a couple of baby-cactus plants but, I couldn’t … I still have to save up for that future screen printing project. 🥲

Just discovered how easy it is to recall my last arg in shell and my brain went 🤯 How come I’ve never learned about this before!? I wonder how many other QOL shortcuts I’m missing on 🥲

Felt the need to make this stupid reference - nobody will get, most likely. Feel free to guess (the file name and todays date, are both a hint), any other notes and opinions appreciated too, idk if I ever drew a standing one, from the front, before.

Achievement Unlocked: I have finally gotten to sit my ass down and watch Back to the future from start to the end.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz uh, i use yandex mail which uses HTML by default

FFS! Can’t I just get results, accurate no BS results? No erroneous/misleading AI-Slop of a summary I’ve never asked for ? I get it, there is plenty of people who LOooove (if not worship) that shit, Good for them! But at least make it opt-in or add in some kind of “Do Not Slop” browser option (as if the “Do Not Track” one made a difference, but I digress). Shit’s only going down-hill from here, I might as well as just spin up my own Searx instance and call it a day.

Rest in peace Barry Vercoe

Had a moment, to check up on some of the companies, I stopped following, get to The Browser Company and see their newest product - it’s just Chrome, with an AI chat window pop-up and that’s it. Something Canary Chrome, come with already.
I see Theo from T3.gg, making fun of it on YouTube and promoting “his” product - an AI chat app, where you can choose from multiple models, by all the popular AI companies. Something I already have a worse version of, at work and I don’t even use it.
There’s also an interview, about the future of virtual keyboards, surely this is at least actually a real thing and not more pointless horse shit. I check the website of the keyboard SDK, and it’s around 20 identical apps, that just copy the same keyboard SDK/api and slap chatgpt features on top - in the App Store, these are surrounded by chatgpt clones, that just feed the users prompts, into the real thing and put ads, next to the answers.

You know what! tt2 UX kicks 🍑 !! Message previews and all … Sheeeeesh! 😁

@movq@www.uninformativ.de you have no idea what a soul sucking, heartbreaking SOB 2025 turned out to be. I wish you the best of luck with whatever annoyances life might have thrown your way. Power to you, my friend.

Am Wochenende wurde mit Eisstielen, Stempeln und dem Lötkolben gebastelt.
Das Ergebnis sind Namensschilder für die Kräutertöpfe. Die unegale Optik finde ich sehr angenehm.

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

@bender@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net Jokes aside, I don’t think that’s the right approach either. We had spell checkers, since I can remember, as well as other tools, like the smart image select, used mostly to remove backgrounds. These are tools, that just simplify the process of either opening up a dictionary and looking up a word, you can’t remember the spelling of, or the process of placing a billion little dots around the part of an image you want to select - none of these are creative or enjoyable tasks, we already had tools for them, decades before AI. I don’t think we need to go back to cave paintings, to be free of AIs influence on our creative work.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org maybe 3D printed toys are the solution, to the dust collecting problem. My collection of 3D printed canines, just expanded today, with this new keychain:

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.

y’Know what, I’ve never thought about rotating my twtxt feed before. Hopefully noting is broken now that I’ve #YOLO-ed my way at it xD

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.

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.

@prologic@twtxt.net if I understand correctly it’s just to increase hash size from 7 to 12 once it gets calculated, isn’t it? BTW is this change already approved? I still don’t understand how a proposal become an implementation in the twtxtverse 🤓

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.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz That’s what I was going for at first, I already have my compose file to go up -d, but then I took a look at a couple of #Snac instances at the last second and they looked pretty dope! Now I’m stuck in my own head 😅

So… I wanna take a stab at the #ActivityPub bee hive, but I’m not sure what to pick up, a #Gotosocial pocket knife or a #Snac2 bamboo stick? Any thoughts?

July 1st. 63 days from now to implement a backward-incompatible change, apparently not open to other ideas like replacing blake with SHA, or discussing implementation challenges for other languages and platforms.
Finally just closing #18, #19 and #20 without starting a proper discussion and ignoring a ‘micro consensus’ feels… not right.

I don’t know what to think rather than letting it rest (May will be busy here) and focus on other stuff in the future.

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

@twtxtory@twtxtory.adn.org.es is the demo instance for Twtxtory just in case someone would like to have a look (password is in the README file of the project) sorry for the confusion! O:)

@prologic@twtxt.net I started to write it in order to understand better how twtxt works and I thought it could be useful for non-geek people but they like to host their own data
