@mckinley@twtxt.net Thatās probably it ā itās been wrong the whole time. According to my old posts on this matter, the stamps should be wrong during the entire summer (when DST should have been applied). š„“ So, nothing changed recently, we only noticed it (again) ⦠š¤¦
@prologic@twtxt.net But why now? As far as I can tell, no state in the U.S. changes from DST at this time of the year. Itās a mystery! š
Hmm, something is fishy with her feed, though.
curl
says:
Last-Modified: Fri, 02 Sep 2022 21:38:02 GMT
But her latest twt says:
2022-09-02T22:31:26-00:00
So if Last-Modified
is correct (it probably is, unless her serverās clock is off, which is less likely than a bug in the script), then the latest twt looks indeed like it was from āthe futureā.
@prologic@twtxt.net I know, I remember those cases. Looking back at the threads kwptbpa and zmxk6pa (which both appear to be gone from your podās cache? š¤), that timezone business of hers really shouldnāt happen until November. š¤
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org That is one weird picture frame. š¤ How large is that thing?
(And, haha, the place named āGalgenbergā ā¦)
The heat wave is finally over. It lasted about 1.5 months. š„µ Now weāre back to somewhat mild temperatures (17°C) and a bit of rain. Went on a walk earlier today, which was super relaxing.
Big trees have survived, but you can tell by the āgrassā how much everything else has dried up.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Youāre welcome. š This Docker thingy is the first time Iāve seen binfmt_misc
in action. Drew DeVault happened to mention binfmt_misc
yesterday, too, in a different context. I donāt really do cross-architecture stuff ⦠This topic only popped up at work, because Apple introduced their ARM M1 CPU and now our devs build multiarch Docker images (and we were wondering how the heck QEMU got installed).
@prologic@twtxt.net Hm, Iān not sure. Her website says āSeattle areaā and this page says Seattle switches timezones in November. š¤
@prologic@twtxt.net Yep and yep š
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no https://imgur.com/gallery/JEQbneq š«¤
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Wooden house in Norway, right? I envy you š
@prologic@twtxt.net What the heck, now your posts also use https://uninformativ.de/twtxt.txt
as the URL of my feed. Thatās missing the www.
! š
Turns out, I wasnāt entirely correct. According to Wikipedia, several cities tried to outlaw alcohol over the years. š¤ Sometimes, a court overruled them, though. Also, itās not allowed to drink alcohol on some trains.
I wasnāt aware of this. I rarely drink alcohol, let alone in public, so I wasnāt up to speed with the current rules. š But to be honest, I think pretty much nobody knows. People generally assume that drinking in public is fine, Iād say. And nobody cares about people drinking āin a calm orderly mannerā anyway, only drunk idiots are a problem.
@jason@jasonsanta.xyz Yeah, thatās the weakest point of raw twtxt: Discoverability. If you donāt have access to your serverās logs, then youāll have a hard time finding out if someone mentioned you. š«¤
In the beginning, jenny actually used to include the list of people that you follow in the twtxt file. This has later been changed for privacy reasons. (You can still include such a list at the top of your feed, but youād have to do it manually or with a script or something.)
The huge advantage of Yarn is that itās a server-side application. When someone fetches your feed, Yarn will know and it can tell you. Thatās just not possible with plain files. š«¤
(btw, the URL to my feed should include a www.
. Since you omitted that, my jenny didnāt highlight your messages. š
)
@prologic@twtxt.net Why do you ask? š„“
@prologic@twtxt.net Hmm, Iām not sure. Do we/you really want to maintain docs at Yarn.social about other clients? Follow their development and update our guides accordingly? š I think the current solution is better: Have a list of clients and link to their documentation.
(Or maybe I still didnāt understand. š Sorry!)
@prologic@twtxt.net We already link to the blog post, donāt we? š¤ What would be the benefit of moving that to Yarn.social?
@prologic@twtxt.net Germany doesnāt care, as long as you donāt drive a car. š
@eaplmx@twtxt.net Thatās cute. š
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Oof, that video. š
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Thanks! Almost missed it.
But who would think of a bicycle race in the first place?
Donāt you listen to FM radio anymore?! Iām sure they announced it! š„“
Sounds like a stressful day.
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @abucci@anthony.buc.ci ⦠and Rust, Iād bet. š
@akoizumi@social.kyoko-project.wer.ee Yep, somethingās wrong. A lot is wrong. Donāt get me started. š¤£
Oh thank god. Itās cloudy today, finally. And only 21°C (so far). What a relief. This heat was getting unbearable.
@eaplmx@twtxt.net Whoops, I didnāt answer the āwhy do you use itā: Actually, I donāt really know ā¦
It would be awesome to use GPG for private stuff, like family photos and such. A lot of sensitive information is sent that way (in my family at least). All of that is unencrypted, sadly, because nobody in my family uses GPG. I talked to them about it a couple of times, but itās just too complicated. So now Google and other companies have a ton of photos with me on it. That really sucks a lot. (These kinds of things are gradually moving over to our family Matrix server, so itās getting better. Not that Matrix is a great thing, but at least itās self-hosted.)
So all the encrypted mail is mostly mundane stuff that could have been public anyway. š Which brings us to the question why I bother ā¦
@eaplmx@twtxt.net I do have GPG set up and I use the key a lot (like signing Git commits, release tarballs, password stores, ā¦). Regarding email, though, letās see ā¦
I just skimmed over the mails of the last 2 years (back to July 2020). Iāve exchanged mails with 39 different people, which is way more than I expected. š³ 7 of those people were also using GPG and we sent some encrypted mails back and forth. š¤ (Only counting direct mail to other people here, not notifications or mailing lists ā those make up the vast majority, of course, and theyāre all unencrypted.)
Itās more than I expected, but letās be honest: Those other GPG users are mostly some uber-nerds that comment on something I wrote in my Gopher hole. š āNormal peopleā donāt care, at all.
@mckinley@mckinley.cc Interesting read. š¤ The idea of stamps seems intriguing. (Could this work? Do people care enough? Or are they gonna say ātoo complicated, why doesnāt it just work?!ā? Because letās be honest: Current email is probably good enough already for 99% of people ā¦)
@prologic@twtxt.net It is, but thatās just one of many factors at play here. It turned out that the system did not leave the stage of āloading pluginsā for a long time. āLoading pluginsā means: Read the plugin blobs from the PostgreSQL database (thatās where theyāre stored) and put them somewhere in the filesystem (probably so that the Java VM can actually load them), probably also analyze the plugins in some way (I didnāt dig that deep). When finished, the resulting directory in the filesystem is a whopping 1.4 GB in size. Combine that with a CPU thatās way too slow, and voilĆ , it takes forever to start.
The āsolutionā was to move the system to another host which has a more powerful CPU. š«¤
(You might think that thatās a very large number of plugins, but rest assured, itās quite normal. People love to install every plugin that they can find.)
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Good one! š¤£š¤£

@prologic@twtxt.net Iām not even close to āpublishingā any of what Iām currently working on. š The only thing I can show you is my instrumental electronic stuff, maybe start with The Year 2648 or Moonlight. All the synths come from LMMS, though, Ardour was only used for mixing.
@xuu@txt.sour.is Most likely not. š
Iāve been lost in my DAW for a week now. Making music ā especially something along the lines of Metal with actual instruments, not just synthesizers ā is so hard. š© Makes you appreciate the work of all those artists out there a lot more.
