Nothing makes you feel better than mowing a wet lawn, while rain falls, under 33°C temperature, with 80% humidity. I loved every step I took!

So, the Pope died. From my non-religious stand point, I think he has been the best Pope in a generation. Let's see how the upcoming one does.

Testing ... (yeah!)

(jenny is also broken?)

End of year holidays are a mix of sadness and happiness for me. I can't help but remembering those who are gone, with which I spent so many good times. A part of me wants to feel happy, and celebrate another completed round around the Sun, while the other feels sad because of those I will never see again.

This morning (and a little bit of the afternoon) the idea of having a full referenced archive of twtxts on the web has consumed me a bit. I am talking about something similar to the email archives one see online, but for twtxts, and a more personal level. Such archive would be available, even if the involved feeds are long gone, because feeds will be treated as received emails.

I wonder how long does Yarn caches a description header. Or rather, how often it re-fetches it.

Three days from today, towards the end of the day, we in the US will have an idea of who the nation's presiding person will be for the next four years. In the 32 years I have lived here, I have never been more worried about an election outcome.

@movq, having an issue fetching a twtxt context. I am getting:

Trying to fetch "<a href="?search=mowsvgq" class="tag">#mowsvgq</a>" from Yarn pod https://txt.sour.is ...
Trying to fetch "<a href="?search=mowsvgq" class="tag">#mowsvgq</a>" from Yarn pod https://twtxt.net ...
Twt could not be found

Yet, the twtxt is there: https://twtxt.net/twt/mowsvgq. Bug, or something else?

Hmm:

42 75 69 6C 64 20 77 68 61 74 20 6D 61 6B 65 73 20 79 6F 75 20 68 61 70 70 79 2E 20 4C 65 74 20 6D 69 73 65 72 61 62 6C 65 20 70 65 6F 70 6C 65 20 62 75 69 6C 64 20 74 68 65 20 72 65 73 74 2E

Hey, @movq, a tiny thing to add to jenny, a -v switch. That way when you twtxt "That’s an older format that was used before jenny version v23.04", I can go and run jenny -v, and "duh!" myself on the way to a git pull. :-D

I have noticed that twtxt timestamps differ. For example:

• @prologic (and I assume any Yarn user) 2024-09-18T13:16:17Z

• @lyse 2024-09-17T21:15:00+02:00

• @aelaraji (and @movq, and me) 2024-09-18T05:43:13+00:00

  So, which is right, or best?

I came across this Gallery Theme for Hugo, and @lyse immediately came to mind. I think it would be a very fitting theme to use for all your photos, Lyse!

Could someone knowledgable reply with the steps a grandpa will take to calculate the hash of a twtxt from the CLI, using out-of-the-box tools? I swear I read about it somewhere, but can't find it.

This might be quite unpopular, but I truly dislike Wordle. The reason isn’t rooted on any psychological issue, it is much, much more simple: people share their Wordle result(s)---I figure they feel good about themselves---and for me it is only uneven, unaligned, wasteful noise. I don’t even want to show you an example, but I am sure you know what I am talking about.

Thank gods those posting their hideous squares have finally quieted down. LOL.

Testing the new custom template option. Got to modify it more, but baby steps.

Thank you for adding the feature so fast, @prologic! Look at how beautiful [this one renders](https://ferengi.one/#cgn2k3a) now. Oh my!

Opened a couple of issues on twtxt2html. Maybe @prologic will get to them after he has completed his luxurious recharging cycle. LOL.

Trying to figure out how to use the publish_command to vomit the HTML into a file, using twtxt2html.

@prologic, your first twtxt ever was o6dsrga, but I can't find the source for it (the raw file). I reset everything, and re-fetched fresh feeds (allegedly including archives). Where is it?

@prologic this was your first twtxt. Cool! :-P

@jmjl howdy! Sorry for mistaken you with https://blog.nfld.uk/ (jlj), but glad to connect. Cheers!

One can tell the weekend is fast approaching, as things around these parts tend to slow down then. Cheers everyone! :-)

Does anyone knows how to clear sign a file with an SSH key? Clear sign, not a detached signature.

This tool, using age is pretty neat: https://github.com/ndavd/agevault. So simple, yet seemingly powerful!

I wonder what ever happened to "jlj". All about him pretty much disappeared from the net.

For the mutt/neomutt users out here, what's the trick to highlight threads with new messages? No user interaction, just upon opening, or while opened, have threads with new, unread messages in it highlighted. Thanks!

@movq, maybe you can help me with this. I want to place the vim cursor at the end of the first line on replies, and forks. I have tried adding to this to jenny's configuration:

"editor": "vim \"+normal $\"",

But that doesn't work. How would you go about it?

@movq is there a way to purge twtxts from a feed I no longer follow?

If Canonical really want to entice the enterprise to buy support, they really need to step up. As of now they are not even close to offer the quality of support Red Hat offers. Not even close.

@movq, do you have an example of conf.json in which I can see all the configuration possibilities? Thanks!

It seems like https://proxy.vulpes.one/ runs a code that once was written by @prologic. Its rendering looks quite nice. Sadly, I am unable to compile it (modified code at https://git.vulpes.one/gopherproxy/).

@movq, any plans still to clean up the hash from the twtxt's body? Maybe a Festivus gift? You know, "for the rest of us". :-D

Took a flu medicine last night, and it knocked me down around 22:00. Woke up at 04:00, then slept till 06:30. All has been seemingly fine, not feeling sleepy, and mostly alert... until now. I am having a really hard time keeping my eyes open. 😬

@benk I am using jenny (we chatted a bit on IRC earlier today). I have been using it for over five months now, I think. It is truly a joy to use, specially because you can use the power of Mutt/NeoMutt to read your twts.

@movq was the request to remove the hash (subject) from showing on twts discarded? I don't see it on the TODO, so I am curious. Was it something you decided was not worth investing time on?

@prologic I am seeing a problem in which not-so-active users, such as myself, are ending up having a blank "Recent twts from..." under their profiles because, I assume, the cache long expired. What can be done about it? Business personalities such as myself can't be around here that often! Could something be implemented so that, say, the last 10 or 20 twts are always visible under one's profile? Neep-gren!

An ageing rose cries. My first graphical media twt!

@movq, is removing the hash from the body of the twt on the TODO? I read it, but I am unsure if it is there already, or not. 🙈 Sorry if it is, and I failed to spot it!

@movq woot! I am back on my Ferengi business!

@movq love having fresh changes coming down with a git pull with my tea in the morning. Thank you much!

@fastidious will reply to this twt, quoting something in it. I will do that same afterwards on his reply.

Not to boast, but jenny has never failed me 😂. It is so neat, powerful, and streamlined, not even funny! Thank you very much, @movq for it! 💛

I think it is long due dropping Facebook (now Meta) from the S&P 500 index funds. As an owner of some, I really have a problem with it---and yes, I know there is little I can do but voice it everywhere I make noise online.

My Friday has started. Now, what will I do with this much time?! LOL! Got to remember "dum loquimur, fugerit invida aetas". ⏳

It looks like the new MBP batteries are easily replaceable. That is positively, and absolutely, a very good news!

My nutritional supplements aim should be:

• 1 or 1.5 cups of lentils (or any beans you might like better).
• 2 or 2.5 cups of bitter greens.
• 1 cup of your favourite protein (or an egg), grilled, or fried with a little of olive oil.
• 1 or 2 tomatoes, or a handful if of the cherry type.
• No added sugars. If it is sweet, make it have fibre.
• No added salt (or very little and ionised), as salt is everywhere.

Related, I tried wild rice for the first time yesterday. It was different, in a good way.

Went to sleep at 01:00, woke up at 06:30, having a really hard time keeping my eyes open, and there is still one more hour till calling it quits. Does being this sleepy counts as being sick?

Standby BIG-IP F5s upgraded to TMOS 16.1 (LTS). All their pairs (now on standby) will be upgraded on Wednesday. Just giving the TMOS some time to settle down, and feel at home. Hahahaha!
