Johan's Twtxt Feed

What is Twtxt?

twtxt is a decentralised, minimalist microblogging service for hackers.

So you want to get some thoughts out on the internet in a convenient and slick way while also following the gibberish of others? Instead of signing up at a closed and/or regulated microblogging platform, getting your status updates out with twtxt is as easy as putting them in a publicly accessible text file. The URL pointing to this file is your identity, your account. twtxt then tracks these text files, like a feedreader, and builds your unique timeline out of them, depending on which files you track. The format is simple, human readable, and integrates well with UNIX command line utilities.

The original description for Twtxt by Felix, aka Buckket

(#xwecfoa) @<movq https://www.uninformativ.de/twtxt.txt> It's hot here as well. Luckily should only last a couple of days. Bunkering down in our home and keeping all the doors and windows closed. No airco. Fans give some relieve.

We had a great and relaxing three week vacation in Denmark and Sweden.

Picked up Altered Carbon again on Netflix. Really need to read those books.

Had totally forgotten how cool Apocalyptica's "Nothing Else Matters" is.

(#ze7cu6q) @<Prologic https://twtxt.net/user/prologic/twtxt.txt> No, haven’t had the need to. We’re sticking to trusted and true over latest and sleekest in this project. Perhaps next year.

Asked ChatGPT 3 yesterday to tone down an angry message I had to send, as in make it still polite, but make sure to get the message across, and it succeeded pretty well.

So dissatisfied and disappointed with the Fairphone 4’s audio issues where during phone calls, the receiver only gets half of the messages due to noise cancellation problems, that we’re considering iPhone as a valid “it just works” replacement. Especially since the iPhone15 now also has the USB Type C port.

I lapsed with the coffee drinking. One cup a day. Making tea takes way more time than making a quick coffee. Although I still should take the time.
27.6.2024, 06:12:54

Doing laundry at 6:00 in the morning

Time flows backwards for some successful people
26.6.2024, 23:27:47

And I feel fine...
26.6.2024, 23:27:27

Haven't been sleeping well lately. Going to bed late. Lots to do.
26.6.2024, 23:26:33

Fun with React Hook Forms and MUI Material lately.
16.6.2024, 08:01:29

Cutting down on drinking coffee to one cup a week. Drinking more tea to get me through the day instead.
16.6.2024, 07:59:25

Made something that was mentioned in a national press release last week. That was cool.
12.6.2024, 09:59:08

Saw an airship fly over Düsseldorf and for a second I felt like being in an alternative dimension where these were more common. Really like them as they glide through the sky.
12.6.2024, 09:57:36

We're good. Lots of work to do and that is great.
12.6.2024, 09:56:50

Finally using workspaces in my monorepos.

(#lwb53ba) @<movq https://www.uninformativ.de/twtxt.txt> Yeah, normally I just use s browser to open PDF, but we had actually create one and it needed some special Acrobat features. Afterwards I immediately uninstalled it again.
16.4.2024, 10:36:06

Not having a great experience with Acrobat Reader. What the heck is Adobe trying to achieve with all of these popups and annoyances?

Half of Germany's car owners are trying to get their cars washed today.

If AI coding machines become mainstream in less than ten years no human will be able to understand how any digital service works any more.
26.3.2024, 10:39:57

Even AI coding machines will need to rotate their access credentials every 90 days.
7.3.2024, 12:53:35

Going to have to reinstall my Yunohost server one of these days as the packages no longer seem to be updateable.
3.3.2024, 00:28:36

The show "One Day" is well worth the watch.
29.2.2024, 19:14:20

I'm in need of some nineties rage against the machine right now - sleep now in the fire
28.2.2024, 07:15:51

Asked an "AI Assistant" (Perplexity) to summarize my introduction of my homepage and then I asked it to give me some book recommendations I might like, and the thing actually nailed it.
25.2.2024, 11:23:13

The way things are going, we're never going to make it to Alpha Centauri.
24.2.2024, 07:12:06

I arrived at a phase of life where waking up after 6:30 feels late.
21.2.2024, 11:21:03

What the heck is a Devil's Haircut anyway Beck?

So I had three espressos before 11:00 - today's going swell.
16.2.2024, 10:06:15

Wishing I could do accents like Trevor Noah can.
16.2.2024, 10:00:58

Found a new CLI timetracker assistant named Watson. Works really well.
14.2.2024, 07:26:47

"no-code" and "low-code" is still someone else's code.

I've been enjoying my Fairphone 3 since January 2020. Not planning to change to a newer phone soon.
9.2.2024, 11:08:19

Of all the Daft Punk hit songs, 'Around The World' is probably still my favourite.
4.2.2024, 19:19:20

Played our first "Ticket To Ride" boardgame today.

Listening to classic rock with my six year old son on a Sunday afternoon - what can be better than this?
4.2.2024, 11:32:29

Lost my wallet with my IDs and bank cards. Would have been worse case if I had lost my phone. Still, it's a waste of time and it will take weeks before I get all my cards back.
2.2.2024, 17:37:14

Got a Dr checkup and the screw in my hand hasn't moved. That's the good news. Bad news is that there seems to be something going on with the internal healing. Nothing to do but wait.

Late fees for public libraries are not fines, they're extra donations to keep the organisation going.

Why isn't inkjet printer ink simply replaceable like the windscreen wiper fluid in our cars? Why does it have to be so expensive and complicated?
14.1.2024, 19:10:19

The German indie sci-fi movie "Das letzte Land" was an interesting watch.
14.1.2024, 01:10:17

Anyone else noticed how the current date and the climate are more resembling Blade Runner each year.
14.1.2024, 01:09:04

Hoping for a good 2024.

I fell with a stupid e-scooter and have been waiting at the hospital now for more than three hours. Not worth it. I almost broke my left elbow and right hand wrist. Got lucky because I was wearing a helmet. Not going to try that again. The wheels slipped on the wet zebra crossing paint in a turn.
15.12.2023, 15:56:35

This is the best time of the year - BEFORE the Christmas holidays - when most are hopefully looking forward to spending good times with family and friends. And I do wish you too.
15.12.2023, 10:52:54

Looking forward to losing the muscle memory in my fingers of entering passwords into forms during my two week vacation.
15.12.2023, 10:48:52

Pretty cool how one can post to the Internet with a single curl command.
