(#lquocva) Need to fix:

• threads
  -media and links

We’ll all my posts are making it to the “Fediverse” https://bridge.twtxt.net/users/c350a5e5fb9d9457

(#scuugpq) @bender@twtxt.net i’m just pointing out that it’s one of those fundamental RS 232 standards that will never die 🤣

(#4bg5k7a) @movq@www.uninformativ.de I think even modern PC still come with serial ports they just don’t wire them up anymore right? They’re still there in the board itself, though just unwired.

(#t24o2wq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Same. :‘-( I just don’t get how people do code archeology with all their shit messages and huge commits changing a gazillion of different things. I always try to lead by setting good examples, but nofuckingbody is picking up on that. At all. Even when bringing this up every now and then.

Currently watching Stranger Things and all I can think of is this:

(#fzfnvoa) @prologic@twtxt.net Bwahahaha! I tried to establish some form of “convention” for commit messages at work (not exactly what you linked to, though), but it’s a lost cause. 😂 Nobody is following any of that. Nobody wants to invest time in good commit messages. People just want to get stuff done.

I’m just glad that 80% are at least somewhat useful – instead of “wip” or “shit i screwed up”.

My current PC is from 2013, so I never even bothered to check, but as it turns out: My motherboard still has a serial port. 🤯 I thought these had long died out by then. To be honest, I didn’t have the need for one, either, not until recently … So I completely lost track if PCs have these things or not.

All I needed was one of those slot-cable-thingies. (And if the order of pins is correct, then it actually works. 🤦)

Cool! One less USB device. 😃

(#fzfnvoa) This is an example of the kind of garbage release notes from this conventional commit autogenerated crap 🤣

(#nlfkqhq) This ☝️ I proxy my SSH traffic and it requires a valid account check to occur.

(#fzfnvoa) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I couldn’t agree more! I think good commit messages are very useful, however, and I’d much prefer the conventional mood style for Commit messages, but rather prefer telling a story rather than this weird syntax all over the shop!

(#fzfnvoa) @prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, I don’t like them either.

As for changelogs, I prefer hand-written ones over something automatically cobbled together. Typically, they are just utter rubbish in my experience.

(#nlfkqhq) @shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe @prologic@twtxt.net Maybe that is helpful to you: https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/twtxt2html/issues/12#issuecomment-20792

(#fgmljga) @prologic@twtxt.net Awwww, I wanna run my hands through this fur so badly! :-)

I kind of hate conventional commit messages: https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/#summary

but I am loving reading RFC 2119: https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2119.txt

(#xckgvxa) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha 🤣

(#xckgvxa) @prologic@twtxt.net No beak, no feathers, … looks suspicious! That’s probably a weird mammal!!1! 😅🤣

(#3dtawna) Confirmed it’s called Tao Tao 🤣

(#hcgd6ia) @itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Aren’t yhere onlu 12 puzzles this year? 🧐

(#xckgvxa) @movq@www.uninformativ.de What about a drop bear? 🧐🤣😆

(#nlfkqhq) @shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Are you using your Gitea username instead of got@ ? Are you forwarding auth?

(#xckgvxa) @prologic@twtxt.net Well, to be fair, if you show me any picture of a penguin (or in fact any bird), I’ll go “awwwwwww 😍” for a little while. 😅

(#3dtawna) @bender@twtxt.net are you able to send me a video recording of how that sounds because I don’t think that that’s what they called it at the breakfast? 🤣

(#xckgvxa) @movq@www.uninformativ.de @bender@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net Four people! Exactly my thoughts, bender, but super cute. :-)

(#xckgvxa) @movq@www.uninformativ.de well I’ve got several minutes of at least three people’s attention now didn’t it? 🤣

(#xckgvxa) @bender@twtxt.net And I think that plan worked! 😂

(#z27akxa) @bender@twtxt.net actually I think it’s a little more nuance than that because for example with salty chat, we have support for DNS based delegation via SRV records and your identity is associated with your Apex Dom name and of course the keys.

I actually don’t understand why Federation and activity pub is so goddamn hard to migrate from one instance to another 🧐

(#upyhhaq) @bender@twtxt.net Same. I think i might have played with it at some point!

(#3dtawna) @bender@twtxt.net ha ha it started the V something and I don’t understand how to reproduce Vietnamese name 🤣

(#upyhhaq) @shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe what app is that?

(#z27akxa) @aelaraji@aelaraji.com does that mean your identity gets associated with your Apex domain or your sub domain?

(#3dtawna) it’s not an apple and it’s not a guava

(#xckgvxa) @bender@twtxt.net LOL 🤣

(#xyfhcsa) @shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Yes! 🙌

That would be my dream job: Weighing penguins. 😍

https://i.imgur.com/Wwyo7En.mp4

(#3dtawna) @prologic@twtxt.net @bender@twtxt.net Reminds me of an apple, too. :-)

(#xyfhcsa) @shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe that has to be one of my stupid designs of activity pub 😆

I don’t know what this fruit is called! The waiter at breakfast told me the Vietnamese name but I’ve since forgotten 😂

(#c7wh6sa) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Yup did yjay some weeks ago 👌

(#zdtae6q) @itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com Nice to see someone else also participating! 🥳

(Btw, they don’t want us to share our inputs: https://www.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/wiki/faqs/copyright/inputs/ Yeah, it’s a bit annoying. I also have to do quite a bit of filtering on my repo …)

(#s3rsdha) I meant were. You get the idea.

Also, I just realized that simple links like that turn into inline images on twtxt.net. Nice! 🥳

(#ftqfrta) FWIW, day 03 and day 04 where solved on SuSE Linux 6.4:

Performance really is an issue. Anything is fast on a modern machine with modern Python. But that old stuff, oof, it takes a while … 😅

Should have used C or Java. 🤪 Well, maybe I do have to fall back on that for later puzzles. We’ll see.

(#ftqfrta) @bender@twtxt.net Nothing will make me use Discord, though. 😅 Not voluntarily.

(#ftqfrta) Most of the Advent of Code action happens on the Fediverse, I’m afraid:

https://tilde.zone/@movq/115595022987289988

There’s just way more people over there who participate. 🥴

(#qx6ageq) @aelaraji@aelaraji.com I like the sounds of this technique a lot redirecting these AI crawling assholes to multi gigabyte files! The only concern I have is how do you do it in such a way that you don’t end up destroying your own ISP speed test servers?

(#zdtae6q) @itsericwoodward@itsericwoodward.com So you’re found for Javascript eh? 🧐

Working on day 3 of the Advent of Code 2025: https://adventofcode.com/

My solutions repo: https://git.itsericwoodward.com/eric/aoc-2025

(#rkjonsq) @bender@twtxt.net Would you like me to say moar words ? 🤣

(#rkjonsq) @shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe carrying an MQTT broker isn’t exactly very simple though 😆

(#usxprsa) @bender@twtxt.net Goes to show you just have a good nose for that. :^)

No doubt, I really do love them. Not only wonderful humans and like-minded, but also technically gifted. That made for a superb combination. I just hope the new team turns out to be equally great.

Bwahahahahaaahaaahaaahaaa, what a brilliant story! :‘-D I’ve been given at most ten weeks to return, let’s see. ;-)
