In-reply-to » Cleaning up some of the 500 open tabs on my phone. I realized that if I don’t have some place to stash the good ones, I won’t go through any. http://a.9srv.net/b/2025-01-16

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I extensively use Cloud tabs under macOS/iOS, and history across both OSs as well. I am finding the it has limited my needing to use search engines greatly.

Granted, I usually keep between 50-60 open tabs, and Safari (both mobile and desktop) does a great job with them (power wise). Now, 500! Ooof! 😅

In-reply-to » Walking those few hundred meters to the dentist and home took me at least three times as long as usual. Complete sheets of ice on the footpaths, definitely ice skating territory. The dentist was caught in a traffic jam and arrived about an hour late. On my morning journey I saw two ambulance operations, one on the way there and the other one when I returned. Just 200m apart. I fear it's going to be an exhausting day for all the rescue personell.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org you just reminded me I need to schedule a visit to the Tooth Fairy. 😅

About the weather, ugh! Crazy the world we live in. Our west coast is engulfed on fires, and the other side of the world is pretty much freezing. You can’t make this up!

In-reply-to » I need an alternative news source... Something I can shove into feeds.twtxt.net that helps me keep up-to-date with Tech and other important news 🗞️ Hmmm 🤔 Suggestions? I can't stand Slashdot anymore since they've decided to come down hard on ad-blockers 🤦‍♂️

@@twtxt.net hehehe, it is not streamlined as you want it. Feedly and an amalgam of news sites, prioritising BBC, NPR, and The Guardian.

Tech news on Hacker News, some subs on Reddit, etc.

@@twtxt.net no. It is jest. Just like The Onion, but exclusively for a fictitious company. 😂

In-reply-to » @doesnm I see problems with that, that do not exist on my approach. You could see, example.com/x/bananas/yo.txt, and the feed has no nick. What is the nick?

I mean, since most feeds are named twtxt.txt, following your recommendation, there could be many “twtxt” nicks. 😀

In-reply-to » Hello @movq . Did you fixed jenny bug which causes fetching long ids from yarn instances on feeds like https://ciberlandia.pt/@marado.txt ? I'm asking because i want to store links in brackets on some of my posts and don't want to confuse jenny users

@movq@www.uninformativ.de on Yarn, if you start a twtxt with (something), for example, it gets stripped out. Not sure if that’s what OP referred about.

In-reply-to » 🤔 Prosoal: Disallowed the @<url> form of mentions. Strictly require that all mentions include a nickname/name; i.e: @<name url>.

@head_honcho_supremus@twtxt.net sounds good but, when using Yarn—at least—users shouldn’t need to worry about this minutiae. They simply hit “Reply”, or “Fork”.

Note, I manually added a nick to this reply.

In-reply-to » I received a tad over four hundred e-mails during my three and a half weeks vacation. That's actually really good, I expected way more. It just would have been nice if some bot e-mail addresses hadn't changed and hence slipped through my sorting filter rules in the first place.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I got a bit over 1,000, which isn’t bad at all. During Thanksgiving holidays I got over 2,000.

I am at inbox zero now, but not telling my boss. This week I feel like I need it slow, to recover from the vacation. LOL.

In-reply-to » 👋 Man, I ready do feel like shit! 🤧😢

@prologic@twtxt.net :-( I know the feeling. It sucks. Plenty of fluids and rest. There is no much else you can do. Of course, a Theraflu, or similar over the counter will make you feel better, but they will also make you groggy and sleepy.
