Man, @quark@ferengi.one has an absolute gold mine. Having dealt again with different clocks and all sorts of strange time things at work today, this made my day! https://netbros.com/1755172401/ :‘-D

(#ixka6ca) @bender@twtxt.net Hahahahahaahaaa, you’re right, it can’t be anything else! :‘-D Must have been one of these manmade objects. Let’s hope they will become a full member of the Grant Wishes Council soon. In any case, I will keep trying.

@danie10@bridge.twtxt.net Fuel efficiency was the reason I had picked the economy instead of the “whatever you have” option in the first place. Although in fairness, I’d have to get a pretty big car to rent a car less efficient than my personal beast which is at the shop.

(#ftss7fa) @bender@twtxt.net Twtxt <-> ActivityPub (2nd time’s the charm? 🤣)

Testing new design, architecture and implementation of a Twtxt bridge I’m working on…

verification-token: ee9bc4da3356f4990671

Please ignore.

@jalefkowit@bridge.twtxt.net IMHO they should keep working on it.

(#bfbkxpq) @bender@twtxt.net I wished my mate would see it, too. But he turned his head a second too late. :-(

@kentonvarda.com That is a fair point. It is also not very cohesive in a “I don’t know what you want, but I’m required to say something” way. It managed to cover your grammar, the source of food insecurity, telling you “just eat something” (which is how I respond to family members who say they’re hungry), and tops it off with a funny video.

On today’s night walk I came across an absolutely giant shooting star. With it being visible for three seconds, it’s my second largest I’ve ever seen so far.

@kentonvarda.com I really hate to defend an AI model, or Google, but you did not give it much to go on here. I would’ve assumed you were telling the machine you were hungry and wanted it to suggest food near you.

The sky picked up a few colors for just a few minutes: https://lyse.isobeef.org/abendhimmel-2025-11-13/

Rental car company absolutely tried scamming me. Obviously they didn’t have the car I reserved, so they wanted to upcharge me like 40% for a nicer car they had… I was able to edit the reservation online while standing there to “whatever you have” for the same cost as my original reservation.
I walked out with the same car they wanted more money for at the same price I had booked for.

(#hnbf6ta) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Yup, it’s been some days here, too.

(#n7g6uxq) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Haha, you were spot on! It took me a bit to figure this out on my own. I’m actually very surprised to have gotten this wrong. Oh well.

(#3neip4q) No, I was using an empty hash URL when the feed didn’t specify a url metadata. Now I’m correctly falling back to the feed URL.

(#3neip4q) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, I noticed that too. I haven’t double-checked my code, though. Maybe it has something to do with selecting the correct URL? I mean, these feeds don’t have any # url = fields, so maybe that’s it?

(#oos3ufq) @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ah, there it is. 😃 Never gets old. 👍

(#tqjqvwa) @arne@uplegger.eu … I still haven’t watched that show. 🤦

(#kf2fo5q) @prologic@twtxt.net And none of them use Yarn-style threading. I don’t think they’re aware of us, they’re probably using plain twtxt. Other than one hit by @threatcat@tilde.club a few days ago, I’ve seen no traffic from them. 🤔

Hmmm, looks like my twt hash algorithm implementation calculates incorrect values. Might be the tilde in the URL that throws something off. :-? At least yarnd and jenny agree on a different hash.

(#uhwlufa) @bender@twtxt.net Hmm, didn’t find anything. But you mean a giant bucketload of access_log /home/$USER/logs/access.log if=… where the condition matches the requested path for said user? Yeah, that gets annoying very quickly. :-D

(#tqjqvwa) @movq@www.uninformativ.de Uuuhhh, beautiful! <3

Speaking of sunsets … https://movq.de/v/753ab5f9e5/sunset.jpg

(#gcaqtmq) @threatcat@tilde.club Let me guess, sl? 😏

(#sxlpyva) This looks like a botnet, to be honest. The IPs are all over the place. Ethopia, Brazil, Kenya, Lebanon, Netherlands, … I mean, that’s the logical thing to do, isn’t it? Do your web crawling on infected PCs. Nobody will block those, because those are the same IP ranges as legitimate requests. And obviously you don’t have to pay for computing time.

… and they all send invalid HTTP requests, all answered with HTTP 400 … How silly.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@MastodonEngineering/115531491817897878The latest engineering (and whole team) update is here 👀

@heidilifeldman@bridge.twtxt.net Guess it’s not unclaimed anymore. 🤔

(#wmnfghq) @bender@twtxt.net i am split between registrars .. isnic is only managed by the country registrar. the others i have at regular reseller

I am not dead. promise.

@RichardBrockie@bridge.twtxt.net They break your device, and they give you the privilege of buying another one from them.

@Viss@bridge.twtxt.net There’s no way someone didn’t notice this when putting it up.

@StillIRise1963@bridge.twtxt.net When it happens, the world’s problems won’t go away, but it will look a little brighter.

is there an etiquette to twtxt’ing? am i flooding?

oops typo tagging @sxb@tilde.club

i’m aging … before my very eyes

@xsb oh no … I’m in a normal brightness room, not quite direct blinding daytime, and light theme looks good

dark mode forevah!

catppuccin latte was great for that. the muttrc color file i found on github, not so much

weird thing: i’m open to light themes now. partly maybe aging eyes, but for sure bc my last home office was so sunny

anyway, i just tried catppuccin in mutt, and didn’t like itas much. and that’s what i prefer on my laptop term

s/but/and/ – though loyal already implies unquestioning

after years of loyal but unquestioning solarized usage, dracula theme feels so good

stoked to have cobbled together a mutt config that feels mostly-right

ngl, little relieved that while reading computer things instead of going out for a quick push on my skateboard, it must have rained briefly

@jordan@bridge.twtxt.net @vkc@bridge.twtxt.net Yeah, I’m Insteon for the same reason, but Z-Wave would be my next best choice. It doesn’t clutter up network bandwidth and in Insteon’s case is too dumb to compromise, the devices don’t even have firmware updates.

Replacement wifi adapter for my main laptop arrived today…5 days early!

hi @lafe@tilde.club and thank you!

hello, @threatcat@tilde.club!
