What’s all of this about? one may ask…

Well I’ve been itching to toy around with a BSD on actual hardware and away from the comfort of VMs. NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD… It doesn’t matter. I just want to “Make it feel… Make it feel alive AGAIN!”

I’ve ripped off it’s GPU about a year ago to rescue another computer … Now I’m stuck with only SSH to play with it. Since it came with just a VGA port for display and my monitor takes all but THAT!

Planning a file back up from an old machine that’s been sitting in the corner gathering dust… Because I know ! I’m about to eff it up, BIIIIG Time ! 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net Awesome! I guess that fixed it. Unless @bender@twtxt.net sees otherwise LOL.

p.s: Broken mentions again?

This is a test twt to see if :set formatoptions-=t in vim would stop the annoying line breaking I’ve been having in my twts… And I guess, that’s it! Things are looking OK on my end.

How about if I add in a separate paragraph like this one? Did hit return twice for it. I hope it isn’t breaking anything else.

Well! My 24 hrs without a GUI Web browser was quite of a nice experience.
As a matter of fact, and as long as I’m not doing any 3D work, I kind of don’t need gui applications as much as it feels like.

Even though, a couple of websites asked me to eff off because they need
JavaScript to work. Some others handed me a cold “402 Upgrade Required” client
error response… (LOL let’s not even talk about how Github repos looked
and felt like). I have managed to fix a couple of things I’ve been meaning to
for quite some time but never got, mainly to because of my browsing
habits. I tend to open a lot of tabs, read some, get distracted then
open some more and down the rabbit hole (or shall I say tabs) I go.

All in all, it was quite a nice experience.
How nice? It was an “I’m dropping into a full TTY experience for another
24 hrs” kind of nice!

Although, I miss using a mouse already, but hey, I would have never
heard about gpm(8) otherwise.

I guess I’m not missing my GUI Web Browser yet. In fact, I think I’m enjoying this. 😆

I might even drop to TTY to try stuff I read about earlier today.

Do you believe one can survive surfing the web using a text-based web browser? (i.e: Lynx or W3m) no CSS no Bling for at least 24 hours 😲

@bender@twtxt.net well there is “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious”!
I usualy hear people ask Harry Mack (a freestyle rapper) to include it in his freestyles. 😆

I have finally decided on creating a proper… (landing page?) home page or whatever it is for my domain name.

It has been the same eye soar of a blank white page for years now.
And this, is when I had something I wanted to toy with in the background,
otherwise, which is most of the time, to be precise, It wasn’t pointing at anything at all. 😅

@bender@twtxt.net Oh, That sounds delicious! B’Saha![1]
I’m Glad you’ve had quite the productive! All I remember of mine is three chapters of an old novel at the coffee shop aaand … Now I’m here, in front of a computer. Everything in between is just Blank 😅

[1] B’saha: Moroccan word for “With health!” (a literal translation) usually used as an equivalent for the French expression “Bon Appétit!” but also used as “Congratulation!”

It’s kinda quiet in here today!

Good Morning everyone! Wishing all of you a productive and Happy Monday!

@prologic@twtxt.net Thank
you! and here’s a twt with the said random characters, since I’ve been
cleaning them up manually, earlier before scp-ing my twtxt.txt file. And
maybe a screenshot of how things look in my editor?

Those new lines are added automatically as I type (except for the ones
after the screenshot.

Now I’m about to do something that May…be… stupid, I’m no dev but
I’ll try and replace the U+201 in the script with a space and see what
happens …

… or is it vi? 🤔

Down the rabbit hole we go… Wee !!

Thanks again @movq@www.uninformativ.de !! I have figured things out and set up Jenny and Vim completion following your blog post! Cheers!

I wonder if anyone got that as a replay 🥲 I tried and copied thread’s tag from twtxt.net

Oh! thank you @movq@www.uninformativ.de and @bender@twtxt.net ! I’ve noticed your replays by chance checking my logs 😊

Oh, nevermind… it did! I’ve just checked my twtxt.txt file. Now I have to figure out replays 🫤

Nope! it didn’t work… I still have some digging to do.

I’m still figuring out interactions mechanics on Twtxt, for example the at symbol is sufficient to mention someone you follow I guess, like @twtxt@buckket.org when using the twtwt cli. is that implemented in the twtxt cli as well? it wouldn’t heart to try

Good! I guess I’m done setting up my Twtxt. I’ll be juggling between the official CLI and Twixter, although I already have a favorite.

At last! my Twtxt feed is up and running and I can post to it from a remote client! Yey!

Hello Twtxters!
