-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 2016-02-16T20:49:40+01:00 Yeah, first tweet with twtxt! 2016-02-16T20:51:37+01:00 I'm developing my own implementation of a twtxt client with perl at https://github.com/mdom/twtxtpl 2016-02-16T21:53:04+01:00 Parsing iso8601 is way to hard, maybe http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339 would be a better choice? 2016-02-16T20:59:32+01:00 But HTTP::Date seems to work for most cases. 2016-02-17T21:21:40+01:00 @ That probably my client at https://github.com/mdom/twtxtpl. It sends a proper user agent string now. 2016-02-18T09:16:38+01:00 Forget to tweet about it, but twtxtpl expands and collapses mentions since last night. 2016-02-18T09:18:07+01:00 You can set expand_name to 0 if you want to hide your local nicknames. 2016-02-18T10:09:15+01:00 @ Wow wttr.in is really great! I used finger berlin@graph.no until now. #weather 2016-02-18T20:21:14+01:00 https://github.com/mdom/twtxtpl/commit/cc8b checks if the twtfile was fetched by following a 301 and rewrites the url in your configuration file 2016-02-18T20:21:34+01:00 Always wanted to do something special with 301! 2016-02-18T21:11:45+01:00 Just renamed twtxtpl to txtwat . 2016-02-18T21:36:14+01:00 You can download txtwat as self contained perl script that should run on all recent versions of perl . 2016-02-19T08:46:24+01:00 Too sick to go working. I'm heading back to bed. 2016-02-19T15:23:47+01:00 As german speaker i missed the unintended meaning of txtwat. Sorry, if anybody was offended. The project is now called txtnix. 2016-02-22T08:14:35+01:00 @, @ twxt: The only social network where you're welcomed personally. 2016-02-22T08:14:58+01:00 Wow, it's really pouring down today in Berlin. #weather 2016-02-22T22:12:53+01:00 My one daily hour of programming was spent today with writing tests for txtnix. So tired now ... 2016-02-24T20:21:25+01:00 New version of txtnix. I would be happy if anybody could test the no-dependency script at . 2016-02-25T12:24:02+01:00 #twtxt feels really snappy after unfollowing texttheater. 2016-02-25T12:30:51+01:00 Does anybody have a #twtxt file on a .onion host? #tor 2016-02-25T14:35:45+01:00 @ It's xargs -n1 txtnix tweet on steroids! 2016-02-25T22:42:48+01:00 First release of txtnix should be hitting cpan any minute now. 2016-02-26T20:55:19+01:00 Can't decide if https://github.com/binfalse/jabber-vs-twitter is crazy or genius. Probably both. 2016-02-26T22:32:42+01:00 @ Just put <|formail -x subject | sed 's/ tweet //' | xargs txtnix tweet in your procmailrc and send mails with the subject: tweet msg. 2016-02-26T22:34:47+01:00 @ Better check that the mail is really coming from you. 2016-02-27T16:04:01+01:00 @ I learned the sherpas knot from Ian and never used another knot. 2016-02-27T17:09:55+01:00 @ How'd that happen? post_tweet_hook gone wrong? :) 2016-02-27T17:11:34+01:00 @ I would just create a second config file and call twtxt with --config... 2016-02-29T10:38:43+01:00 @ It doesn't seem to matter what page i request, the result is always the same? #registry 2016-02-29T11:11:41+01:00 @ What project is the front runner in the moment? :) 2016-02-29T21:20:45+01:00 txtnix v0.03 now has support for mentions via registries. Now, if just more users would use registries... 2016-03-01T09:08:29+01:00 @, @ To be honest, my real url is http://www.domgoergen.com/twtxt.txt, and it doesn't support ssl... :) 2016-03-01T09:40:37+01:00 Uh, i misconfigured my service and my twturl was redirected with a 301 instead of 307. Thanks for pointing that out @. 2016-03-01T10:01:12+01:00 Stop caring about how -e works: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-userlevel/2016/02/29/msg009700.html 2016-03-01T10:39:06+01:00 @ //de/berlin 2016-03-01T10:42:51+01:00 @ Yeah, it's way easier to upload files to github than to my hoster. But i'm giving up, the official mdom is now under . 2016-03-01T10:43:21+01:00 Now i just have to figure out how to change my url at the registry... :) 2016-03-01T19:14:30Z @ You can use update-alternative as normal user by supplying --admindir and --altdir. 2016-03-02T08:30:18Z Wow, a third of all ssl certificates on twtxt are from Let's Encrypt. Incredible. 2016-03-02T09:39:20Z @ There's an almost dependency-free version at . 2016-03-02T09:54:52Z @ Not that i endorse anything like that, but one could always just . 2016-03-02T20:08:04Z @ Congratulation! 2016-03-03T08:31:50Z Thanks @ for the final nudge to change my bash history settings. Still on the fence about PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a" though. 2016-03-03T12:05:14Z Just found time to read through . Maybe the best thing i read about CVE-2015-7547 yet. Does anybody has more to read about it? 2016-03-03T16:27:56Z Does anybody have an opinion about https://github.com/DracoBlue/twtxt-registry/issues/4? 2016-03-03T16:30:02Z Actually i would prefer if all endpoints could return seperate url and nick fields. 2016-03-03T16:41:17Z Already registered with ? 2016-03-03T16:46:14Z If you're registered with reednj, would you mind being automatically added the a registry? Is reednj just the registry that won? :) 2016-03-03T18:38:03Z @ Would you mind adding this functionality to your registry? 2016-03-03T21:41:44Z #txtnix now has support for all registry endpoints, you can query tags, tweets, mentions and users. 2016-03-03T21:43:46Z You can even just call txtnit register to register at your friendly neighborhood's registry. 2016-03-04T09:31:49Z Can anybody recommend a webbased ldap account manager other than lamcms that can run custom scripts? 2016-03-04T09:32:42Z We're planning to write one ourselves but i wanted to check the alternatives first. 2016-03-04T15:18:58Z Yay, Hacker Newsletter 290 arrived! 2016-03-04T16:12:23Z /me wonders in which world autocorrecting spelling errors during tab-completion is sane? 2016-03-04T16:38:23Z Haha, haven’t heard that one: "#1 rule of distribute computing: Don’t distribute your computing!" 2016-03-04T22:12:25Z I'm contemplating a announce_following option, disabled by default, to to anounce follow and unfollow commands in your twtfile. 2016-03-04T22:15:01Z This could be a way to discover other twtxt users more easily. Clients could ignore such lines in the timeline if wanted. 2016-03-04T22:16:29Z What do you think? 2016-03-05T13:23:04Z #txtnix now calls an editor if you provide no argument to tweet. Every line in then tweeted as a seperate tweet. 2016-03-05T13:23:04Z It's so much easier to stay under the 140 character limit when vim is showing you the column you're in. 2016-03-05T13:23:04Z @david And there are no problems with shell quoting! And especially with history expansion when using an exclamation mark. 2016-03-05T13:23:04Z @ Yeah, something like that. 2016-03-05T13:31:25Z Although i probably should add a second between each line so that sorting the tweets still works. 2016-03-05T15:03:57Z #txtnix will now add a tenth of a second between tweets to enforce strict ordering between tweets. 2016-03-05T15:03:57.1Z Oh my, we probably need to a way to add multiple twturls. People are now using three different urls for my twtfile. 2016-03-05T16:20:26Z If connected to a pipe #txtnix tweet will now read tweets from STDIN. Will it now be too easy to spam the #twtxt network? :) 2016-03-05T16:50:50Z @ I wonder if you can already see traffic coming in from the heise forums? :) 2016-03-06T12:41:09Z You can at least go sledding @! It's been raining for hours in Berlin. #weather 2016-03-06T21:50:16Z We just started to watch The West Wing a week ago. No idea how I could have overlooked it for 17 years, it's so good! 2016-03-07T08:46:35Z Should i really deploy code to prod that already broke it twice? Tests look good, but they also did the last time... 2016-03-07T08:46:35.1Z Bug bug bug bug bug / new build all should be fixed / bug bug bug bug bug 2016-03-07T20:46:15Z I highly recommend The Chronoliths by Robert Wilson. The Spin series is also great, though i was a little disappointed by the last book. 2016-03-07T20:46:15.1Z My next book will be Darwinia by the same author. Any good tips what to read after that? #books 2016-03-07T20:46:15.2Z @ I'm at the tenth episode know and it just gets better and better. And it's shockingly political acurate for television. #westwing 2016-03-07T21:09:47Z If you want to try #txtnix, now is the time with the new installation guide 2016-03-08T07:54:25Z @ digitalocean.com has FreeBSD servers for $0.007 the hour. And you can use the PromoCode DeveloperTea for $10 credit. 2016-03-08T08:04:21Z // follow kdave https://kdave.github.io/twtxt.txt 2016-03-08T09:18:18Z @ Read them both and loved them! Though I don't know why Stephenson added that strange appendix to an otherwise great book. 2016-03-08T13:05:20Z Definitely worth a read: Myths about /dev/urandom . 2016-03-08T21:47:01Z Thanks @, I just bought it and copied it on my reader! Never heard of the book before. 2016-03-08T21:47:01.1Z #txtnix now has a --pretty and --simple for the timeline and view subcommands and a config option display_format that defaults to simple. 2016-03-08T21:47:01.2Z The pretty format is very similar to twtxt without the unicode glyphs and the relative date. 2016-03-08T21:47:01.3Z Should be very use to implement user defined templates if anybody needs it. 2016-03-08T21:47:01.4Z And there's --new to just show the new tweets since the last time you called timeline. 2016-03-09T08:18:32Z // unfollow david http://htwtxt.plomlompom.com/feeds/david 2016-03-09T08:18:38Z // follow david http://post.aldebaran.uberspace.de/twtxt/david.txt 2016-03-09T08:28:25Z @ Woah, we both implemented ANSI color support for #twet and #txtnix at the same time! 2016-03-09T08:28:25.1Z You have to set use_color = 1 and display_format = pretty to get colorized output in #txtnix. 2016-03-09T08:28:25.2Z The colors are configurable with a new configuration block: [color] nick = bright_yellow time = red on_green mention = grey10 2016-03-09T08:28:25.3Z Does anybody have a good idea for a default color set? I used the first color that crossed my mind, so the default theme is rather ugly. 2016-03-09T18:34:01Z Thanks @ for the new default colors. And colored hashtags are also a thing now. And text wrapping at 76 characters. #txtnix 2016-03-09T18:34:01.1Z @ Ah sorry, should have checked the commit. #twet is officially the first twtxt client with colors! :) 2016-03-09T18:34:01.2Z Yeah! I'm also a frequent listener, @, but i never have the time to listen to the live podcast for four hours... 2016-03-10T08:25:23Z #txtnix displays relative dates when setting time_format to "relative". 2016-03-10T08:25:23.1Z Already three of ten children sick at our daycare. Keep your fingers crossed. 2016-03-10T08:25:23.2Z Did you enjoy the episode, @? Any good rants by Tim or Clemens? Was #twtxt mentioned? :) 2016-03-10T11:43:57Z @, @ I don't get it. How do i generate keys for #saltpack? Do i need #keybase to use it? 2016-03-10T14:49:46Z @ That's what i'm using. But shouldn't i be able to generate keys to communicate with other users? How could i encrypt a message for you? 2016-03-10T18:23:24Z @ Heh, I like twet twet! #twet 2016-03-10T19:10:11Z @ So the first hex string is the private key and the second a public key of a recipient? 2016-03-10T19:10:11.1Z But how do i generate my public key from my private? And shouldn't iI be worried that my private key can be seen with ps? Still confused. 2016-03-11T09:08:21Z // follow krt http://krt.marmaro.de/twtxt.txt 2016-03-11T09:12:18Z @ Hi there, welcome to #twtxt! We sure get a lot of comparisons with #finger... 2016-03-11T09:18:15Z @ needs to move to copenhagen. I lived in Reformert Kirke for few weeks and loved Copenhagen! 2016-03-11T13:24:35Z @ is on fire. Great links, thanks! MovieSwap seems just crazy enough to succeed. 2016-03-11T19:56:49Z Big changes for #txtnix: The last commits added a basic plugin system. There are currently just three plugins: 2016-03-11T19:56:49.1Z ShellExec takes over the work from the current hooks and should work without any further configuration. 2016-03-11T19:56:49.2Z LinkBack can post your twturl to an url every time you mention someone as long as the user has a // linkback $url in her feed. 2016-03-11T19:56:49.3Z And GistStore will upload yout twtfile to gist when you provide it with your username and password or access token. 2016-03-11T20:48:56Z @ You mean, you want to link a url in one of your twets and then send a webmention? 2016-03-11T20:48:56.1Z We would have to write a new plugin for that. Which sounds fun... Do you have a have a receiver we can play with? 2016-03-11T21:59:17Z Until there's documentation: You need at least a empty section header like [LinkBack] to activate it. I'll probaby require active = 1 later 2016-03-12T12:12:14Z // follow raur http://raur.nfshost.com/twtxt.txt 2016-03-12T12:12:28Z Hello, @! Can i ask how you found #twtxt? 2016-03-12T15:12:45Z @ Is twtxt-dir removing exclamation marks after mentions? 2016-03-13T12:05:13Z #txtnix new subcommand will dump all available metadata for a feed. Until a decision is made it uses my // suggestion. 2016-03-13T12:05:13.1Z Otherwise i have not much time to code, daugther and friends intervene... :) 2016-03-13T13:16:13Z The smell of waffles is in the air. 2016-03-13T21:05:48Z Find words for twt: perl -lane '$line=$_;s/[aeoui]//g;print $line if /twt/i' /usr/share/dict/words -- I like twitch... :) 2016-03-13T21:33:34Z @ #txtnix does now expand /me to @. I'm not sold on the syntax though, my brain is trying to find the referenced mention. 2016-03-13T21:55:10Z #txtnix now uses it's own configuration file ~/.config/txtnix/config after @ discovered some incompatibilities. 2016-03-13T22:02:51Z @ Damn, twitch is also already used ... we're too late! Maybe we should concentrate on the txt part and just call them texts. 2016-03-13T22:02:51.1Z That's also an established term but language is a crowded space... :) 2016-03-14T10:06:00Z /me is pondering if there should be two configuration files. One with normale configuration data and one with the state. 2016-03-14T10:06:00.1Z This would allow to add comments, preserves whitespace and ordering. And no process will be writing in your file while you're editing it. 2016-03-14T10:06:00.2Z But what to do with following? Are you hand editing it? Would it be okay to move the section to the state file? 2016-03-14T10:18:39Z @ I had a race condition btw 2 txtnix processes. The obvious solution is to flock, but then config edit will flock for too long. 2016-03-14T10:24:11Z @ Ah, okay, i misunderstood you there... :) Would you be okay with following moving to the state file? 2016-03-14T10:24:11.1Z @ I have no strong opinion about different configs fot #txtnix and #twtxt, but @ had compatibiliy issues with quoting. 2016-03-14T10:24:11.2Z And INI is a weird format for sharing config. Even in perl one library can't parse the result of the other. :/ Maybe TOML? 2016-03-14T11:54:10Z @ The last commit will check for the environment variable TXTNIX_CONFIG_DIR but this won't help if i move following to a state file. 2016-03-14T11:54:10.1Z I could just fall back to twtxt's config if i can't find a config directory for txtnix... 2016-03-14T13:32:12Z @ It all comes back to #48 ... :) 2016-03-14T21:53:42Z Slow day for #txtnix. Just some documentation for plugins and fighting to get the test coverage back up to 85%. 2016-03-15T21:13:25Z @ The only thing stopping me from implementing webmentions by myself is RFC 5988. Crazy stuff... 2016-03-15T21:36:23Z Come on coveralls.io! Show me my new badge! Nothing more depressing that working on your coverage and your new shiny badge won't update :) 2016-03-15T21:39:26Z @ The moon or do you have another favourite glyph? And please with codepoint, my font doesn't handle all the fancy stuff you throw at it. 2016-03-15T21:41:23Z My code worked in test, still worked in integration and failed in prod after 4 hours with no complains. Oh my. 2016-03-16T08:20:44Z @ What are you recommending? I usually prefer Terminus. 2016-03-16T08:20:44.1Z All fonts I tried are either ugly or the unicode glyphs are so small that they become unreadable. #fonts 2016-03-16T08:20:44.2Z @ I don't see anything at all. So either my font has an empty glyph for that codepoint or i'm stripping it. Will investigate. 2016-03-16T08:26:08Z \me wonders if there's something useful we can do with the referer header. We can put our own twturl there like in the user agent field? 2016-03-16T08:26:08.1Z Or we can use it to refback. Every time you mention somebody you send a HEAD with your twturl in the referer to her adddress. Any ideas? 2016-03-16T09:40:46Z @ Great Idea! I wouldn't worry about the file size. Content-Encoding gzip should get you a very good compression rate. 2016-03-16T20:35:14Z @, @ As long as I can still upload my hand edited twtfile on any webserver and someone can follow me, twtxt hasn't lost its way. :) 2016-03-16T20:35:14.1Z I think we sometimes forget that even with all the advanced web technologies, you can still share your ideas with a simple text file. 2016-03-16T21:54:25Z The sun made it across the pacific! @ @ 2016-03-17T16:36:16Z @ The problem is that my ini parser does not remove quotes around values and twtxt's does. Another parser? Another format? *sigh* 2016-03-17T16:41:20Z @ But apache eg can just use mtime,inode or size for the etag. No default way to compute md5 without a filter. 2016-03-17T16:43:56Z @ We had a short power fluctuation yesterday. Funny to see which machines die and which survive. 2016-03-17T17:08:40Z @soltempore Berlin is missing! How long is my day? Please tell me! 2016-03-18T10:23:16Z @ Does your offer for subdomains on twtxt.org still stand? Could you point roster.twtxt.org to 46.101.199.168? 2016-03-18T10:23:16.1Z It's running since last night, supports the twtxt registry api and crawls the feed for new urls. #roster 2016-03-18T21:46:08Z http://roster.twtxt.org got a nicer layout, buttons and collapsed mentions tonight! #roster 2016-03-19T10:55:08Z @,@ Are your twtfiles requested too often? Do you think we need a policy how often to request a twtfile? 2016-03-19T10:55:08.1Z @ Very cool! 2016-03-19T10:55:08.2Z @ What are you working on? 2016-03-20T09:53:20Z Another sunday at the office. Alone. Only admin in the building. Wish me luck that nothing breaks. 2016-03-20T09:53:20.1Z Thanks @. Packaging is such a thankless but important job. 2016-03-20T09:53:20.2Z @ You can use more than 140 characters. It seems twtxt does not limit the number of characters to 140. Neither does txtnix. Twet? 2016-03-20T13:52:02Z @ Good reminder, i really should add a url in my user-agent-string for roster.twtxt.org. Although it only fetches feeds every 600s. 2016-03-20T14:18:06Z Talking about scaling: #txtnix has a new feature since last night i haven't talked about as i wanted to test it for a few hours first. 2016-03-20T14:18:06.1Z Instead of fetching feeds every few minutes, 'txtnix watch ws://url' will listen to a websocket endpoint for new tweets. 2016-03-20T14:18:06.2Z And as luck would have it, #roster provides a websocket stream on ws://roster.twtxt.org/stream. Have fun! 2016-03-20T14:18:06.3Z @ Twice an hour would be really slow for a lively discussion. But i agree, 10 seconds is too often. 2016-03-20T14:18:06.4Z This would be a good use case for metadata. @ could ask clients to refetch less, eg with /refetch 10m 2016-03-20T14:36:13Z Great, i wanted to have cold Club Mate and now i have a frozen block of it. 2016-03-20T22:11:35Z #txtnix watch --alarm mention or --alarm tweet should ring the visual bell when something happens. 2016-03-20T22:11:35.1Z And as #roster is currently the only endpoint it's for now the default endpoint for watch. 2016-03-21T08:50:42Z @ It's a cool game, i played it when it was featured on hn, but lost interest once i could venture outside. 2016-03-21T08:50:42.1Z What's weird, normally you'd think this would be the point where it gets interesting. 2016-03-21T08:50:42.2Z @ I actually like it when tweets are short, but insisting on 140 characters and cutting the tweet is a little bit too strict. 2016-03-21T08:50:42.3Z Sometimes you just need the 20 additional characters... :) 2016-03-21T08:50:42.4Z A detailed document describing HTTP/2 ⌘ https://www.gitbook.com/book/bagder/http2-explained/details 2016-03-21T08:50:42.5Z Anybody has http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7033 running for twtxt? And what to use for rel? https://twtxt.org/twtfile? 2016-03-21T14:39:18Z @ Sorry, but what tweet are you referring to? I have no idea what sounds great... We need a way to reference tweets! 2016-03-22T14:30:38Z @mylesb Nice idea! 2016-03-22T14:30:38.1Z @, @ You're right we should really use robots.txt for twtxt registries. Maybe i even add this as a option to #txtnix. 2016-03-22T14:30:38.2Z @ I'm not sure if i'm ready to document the streaming interface, i'm still playing with different ideas. 2016-03-22T14:30:38.3Z Or do you ask because you want to implement a client or server? I can probably write something up, it's a very minimal api. 2016-03-23T15:46:33Z @ And i thought that was just a thing on the german wikipedia. 2016-03-23T15:47:01Z @ I'm pretty sure i would never have tried twtxt if Zeronet had been a dependency. Though i definetely have to check zeronet! 2016-03-23T15:47:01.1Z And we can support multiple transport mechanism and there's no reason to not upload you twtxt to multiple backends. 2016-03-23T15:47:01.2Z Do we really need to scale? How many people can you follow, read and respond to? And websockets could really help. 2016-03-23T15:47:01.3Z I'm currenty fetching approx. 40MiB per day on roster.twtxt.org by requestion every ressource every 10 minutes. 2016-03-23T20:38:12Z Mike Duncan of "History of Rome" fame has another great podcast: . I can really recommended it! 2016-03-24T12:25:34Z #txtnix and #roster now support the new metadata syntax ts#metadata. Now time will tell if somebody will use it. 2016-03-24T12:25:34.1Z And both are more liberal in parsing twtxt files: Any kind and amount of ws can now seperate timestamp and tweet. 2016-03-24T12:25:34.2Z Anybody wants to do a PR for twtxt? 2016-04-04T13:50:49Z @ https://roster.twtxt.org now supports https and cors headers. And @all: every tag links to a page with all tagged tweets. 2016-04-04T20:08:03Z @ aura akua sound a lot like a sentence from toki pona. 2016-04-05T07:13:27Z There a new version of roster out: All links to nicks now point to a page with tweets by that user. 2016-04-05T07:13:27.1Z We probably should put that in the registry spec. I use /tweets/by/$twturl but /tweets?by=$twturl would probably be more correct. 2016-04-05T07:36:42Z Fun with data! The complete roster twtxt database can be downloaded at https://roster.twtxt.org/twtxt_20160405.sql.gz 2016-04-06T17:38:27Z Just added a search field for users and tweets at https://roster.twtxt.org And sorry for just tweeting about new features... 2016-04-11T17:37:54Z Srsly? Just because unless (cond) { do_stoff unless other_cond } works, doesnt' make it not insane. Or whatever. 2016-04-11T17:37:54.1Z Does cat /proc/fs/xfs/stat | awk '/^ig/{print $1}' == 0 really mean that i'm not using the inode cache? 2016-04-11T17:37:54.2Z /me has programmed for hours today only to learn that our problem is underspecified. gah! 2016-04-11T17:44:19Z @ Do you want to close all issues tagged enhancement and milestone 1.3 before you do another release? 2016-04-11T17:49:23Z Recipe for tonight: http://sidinthekitchen.blogspot.de/2014/04/smoky-incan-stew-quinoa-black-bean.html 2016-04-11T21:05:54Z @ I fixed the connection timeouts with #txtnix. It seems i fetched to many urls concurrently, so now there's a worker pool. 2016-04-11T21:05:54.1Z It's probably a little bit slower now, but i'll add a option to increase the workers. 16 seems to work nicely here. 2016-04-11T21:05:54.2Z @ Yeah ... i was too lazy to buy chipotle and just put a good handful of pepper flakes in it. #yummy 2016-04-11T21:14:22Z @ Haven't seen any asparagus yet, i think the harvest is late this year.

So easy. 2016-04-12T19:15:37Z @ It should match the full word, but it's currently matching the prefix as %tag is easier to implement. But it's on my todo list. 2016-04-12T19:15:37.1Z @ When you get timeouts, do all feeds timeout? Can you check if you can reproduce it when you flush your name server cache? 2016-04-13T20:46:14Z #roster uses a junction table for tags insteaf of like, so #graph does not match #graphite. Should have done that from the start. 2016-04-14T21:00:53Z New features for #roster: Autocompletion for #tags and searching for @mentions in the normal search field. 2016-04-14T21:00:53.1Z I wonder what the neighbours think ... tonight I blocked the windows with tin foil to darken our bedroom. #paranoid #summer 2016-07-15T20:26:23Z Worked the last weeks on https://github.com/mdom/tapsig/, a tap library to test unix commands. Would be interested in any kind of feedback! 2016-07-15T20:26:23.1Z So, after weeks of neglecting my twtxt feed, i try to tweet more often. I think i was simply a little burnt out after roster and txtnix. 2016-07-16T18:31:14Z The only reason i used github for my twtxt was that my hoster not really supported ssl. This changed ... 2016-07-16T18:31:14.1Z You can find my twtxt feed at https://domgoergen.com/twtxt/mdom.txt Sorry for the trouble! 2016-07-16T21:12:58Z @ Okay, i admin, i have no idea what a TZAG is?

Now if someone would like ftp retrieval... :) 2016-07-17T19:52:26.1Z Let's be honest, it seems to be impossible to use twtxt without adding new stuff to the client. So much fun. 2016-07-17T19:57:20Z If somebody is still afraid of using autotools ... https://autotools.io/whosafraid.html 2016-07-17T20:21:35Z @ Interesting post about sharing.

Browsers works fine. 2017-02-27T16:37:43.000001Z @ And the multiverse stares back. Hello to twtxt! 2017-02-27T21:03:12.000000Z @ A lot of tiny things today?! :) 2017-02-27T21:04:29.000000Z @ Something is still broken, every clients but curl works for https. The ppl in #curl bet it is some ssl option. 2017-02-28T19:35:29.000000Z @ Can you check with sh -x? Do you use gpg_sign? This will create a new file in a temp dir. https://github.com/mdom/txtnish#sign_twtfile Maybe you upload your twtfile and not the tempfile? 2017-02-28T19:35:29.000001Z @ But be prepared that you terminal is b0rked! In what language are you writing your client? 2017-02-28T19:35:29.000002Z twtxt: The only social network where every new user starts by writing it's own client. 2017-02-28T19:35:29.000003Z Maybe we should just release the spec and not our clients so that any users is required to write a client. 2017-02-28T19:35:29.000004Z @ Take a look at dns resolv times. This was a major pita with txtnix. 2017-02-28T19:35:29.000005Z @ Still me althoug i know about ctrl-r... :) 2017-02-28T20:26:30.000000Z @ Let me know if you have any good idea how to solve that. You probably need two files: your plain twtfile and a signed one in your docroot. 2017-02-28T22:38:39.000000Z @ Yeah, we are currently relying on the fact that lines without tabs are skipped and gpg does not produce lines with a tab. I agree, that this is suboptimal. 2017-02-28T22:38:39.000001Z But buckket's last comment in https://github.com/buckket/twtxt/issues/48 seems to support that. 2017-02-28T22:38:39.000002Z @ Thanks for the pointer to heads. Didn't know that tails uses nonfree software. 2017-02-28T22:38:39.000003Z @ Reusing twtxt config is probably the easiest way for new clients. Although i'm really happy that i can now use comments in txtnish... :) 2017-02-28T22:38:39.000004Z @ I have to recheck, but i think the dns resolver of perl is blocking? #fud 2017-02-28T22:38:39.000005Z @ Something like post_tweet_hook () { cp "$twtfile" /var/www/twtxt.txt; } 2017-03-01T09:46:59.000000Z Starting an Internet Service Provider http://chrishacken.com/starting-an-internet-service-provider/ 2017-03-01T14:20:33.000001Z Welcome to twtxt, @! Your timestamp looks like your're using txtnish? :) 2017-03-01T14:38:53.000000Z @ Yeah, we just talked this morning about that. There are clients (for example twet) that won't be able to read signed files. 2017-03-01T14:38:53.000001Z The current spec does not allow for clearsigned twtfiles. I just hoped for the best, but sure something broke... :) 2017-03-01T14:38:53.000002Z I would love to add metadata to the spec, but someone would have to hack it into twtxt #issue48 @? :) 2017-03-01T16:13:38.000000Z @ But then we wouldn't be a decentralized network anymore. Or do i misunderstand the nature of keybase? 2017-03-01T16:20:19.000000Z #freedeniz https://www.amnesty.org/en/get-involved/take-action/action-free-turkey-media/ 2017-03-01T16:48:53.000000Z The doomsday algorithm is cool. Do you already have it memorized? 2017-03-01T21:33:02.000000Z @ Ha! Thorsten Glaser is an old colleague of mine. Shared his office for three days before i switched to another client. 2017-03-01T21:33:02.000001Z @ I'm practising, and it's really easy, at least for the current year. Thanks! #doomsday 2017-03-01T21:33:02.000002Z Big improvement for #txtnish. It converts the timestamps to unixtime and displays relative dates! 2017-03-01T21:33:02.000003Z This will be configurable in the future but that's enough coding for one night, time computation is weird. 2017-03-01T21:33:02.000004Z And #txtnish is now on the one hand more lenient and tries to fix the feed, but if it can't it will skip the misformed tweet. 2017-03-01T21:33:02.000005Z Someone wants to write a vim syntax file for #twtxt? :) 2017-03-02T12:46:26.000000Z @, @ I already ignore the scheme for collapsing mentions, I wonder if i should ignore www to. Probaby not... :) 2017-03-02T12:46:26.000001Z txtnish should handle 301 and rewrite urls accordingly, then i can just redirect to my canonical url. #somuchtodo 2017-03-02T16:39:04.000000Z How should #txtnish handle permanent redirects? Prompt the user to change url? But what if timeline is run in cron? A flag like -I for non-interactive? Mhh... 2017-03-02T16:53:30.000000Z Or maybe i just print a message to stderr as @ suggested. 2017-03-02T22:07:48.000000Z @, @ It's a feature, i want to see what the rest of the world sees. In case publishing fails. 2017-03-02T22:07:48.000001Z But i should probably autofollow if twturl is set in the config file. What do you think? 2017-03-02T22:07:48.000002Z I think i just add a configuration option stating if the users wants to be prompted or if it should happen automatically. 2017-03-02T22:07:48.000003Z The unix way: If you can't decide, add a configuration option. 2017-03-02T22:07:48.000004Z @ Shouldn't i check [ -t 0 ] if i want to know if i can prompt? 2017-03-02T22:07:48.000005Z @, @ Sorry, too many new users! :) @ suggested printing the messages to stdout. 2017-03-02T22:15:46.000000Z @ Thanks for the reference! How do you create your timeline? Would it help if you had access to the unformatted timeline? Before formatting it's nick "t" url "t" props "t" unixtime "t" msg 2017-03-03T10:48:16.000000Z @ Nice! But i don't get a UTF8 feed, for example https://twtxt.1337.cx/tazgezwitscher 2017-03-03T10:48:16.000001Z @, @ Okay, following one self seems not so obvious as i thought. With commit 4b9b067 #txtnish displays the local twtfile. 2017-03-03T12:03:20.000000Z @. Thanks, fixed! 2017-03-03T12:03:20.000002Z @ Interesting video, i just watched the first ten minutes and bookmarked it for later. 2017-03-03T12:03:20.000003Z @ Sure, thanks for pointing out the problem. I'm very happy somebody is testing txtnish! 2017-03-03T12:03:20.000004Z @ I think there's just a charset=utf-8 missing to see it correctly in the browser. It's fine in a terminal. 2017-03-03T12:07:54.000000Z @ Looks great, do you have the syntax file uploaded somewhere? 2017-03-03T12:34:19.000000Z @ Can you check with the newest version? This should be fixed in eb3665b. 2017-03-03T12:34:19.000001Z @ Thanks! 2017-03-03T15:43:06.000000Z Welcome to twtxt, @! 2017-03-03T16:24:17.000000Z @ The path starts with /Hund. Collapsing mentions is harder than i thought. #txtnish does now lowercase the hostname to handle 0x1A4.1337.cx vs 0x1a4.1337.cx in mentions. 2017-03-03T16:32:22.000000Z https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/24/business/andy-weirs-best-seller-the-martian-gets-a-classroom-friendly-makeover.html 2017-03-03T18:45:57.000000Z @ Yeah, i know, it's crazy, especially wp http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7996919/should-url-be-case-sensitive/17113291#17113291, let's just use only lowercased urls! 2017-03-03T22:09:40.000000Z @ Uh, i haven't heard about yacy in years. Please keep us informed! I have to talk to our hardware guy, maybe we can run an instance at work. 2017-03-03T22:09:40.000001Z I stumbled upon darebee.com in an unrelated hn thread and i'm really impressed, it's a really easy follow regimen. Try the Totals program. 2017-03-03T22:09:40.000002Z Does anybody has a good idea where to do some promotion for twtxt? A subreddit or online community i haven't thought about? 2017-03-03T22:09:40.000003Z Now that we can autofollow some feeds, the only thing missing for new users would be an easy way to upload some tweets. 2017-03-03T22:09:40.000004Z I though about ix.io, any other good ideas? 2017-03-03T22:09:40.000005Z Maybe it would be a good idea to point new users to reednj, we-are-twtxt or irc. Some set up a twtfile and aren't sure about the next step. 2017-03-03T22:09:40.000006Z #txtnish now reports about redirects or error codes on stderr. 2017-03-03T22:17:38.000000Z And now back to http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29475447-a-closed-and-common-orbit #books 2017-03-05T11:23:41.000000Z @ What should i expect to happen with the last update? Looks okay here... :) 2017-03-05T14:26:24.000000Z @ Ah, #txtnish just dumps the latin-1 on your terminal. Not sure what i should do about that, but it's probably okay. But it's a good idea to test that! 2017-03-05T14:26:24.000001Z Okay, i dumped the wget backend from #txtnish, curl works better and providing the same interface with both was hard. 2017-03-05T14:26:24.000002Z Watched #citizenfour yesterday, i can't believe how much you can forget in four years even if you're technical and political interested! 2017-03-05T14:26:24.000003Z One thing i really miss in posix shell is local. It's so easy to pollute your namespace. Current solution is to use more pipes and subshells. 2017-03-05T14:28:23.000000Z In case anyone missed http://n-gate.com/hackernews/ :) 2017-03-05T22:10:06.000000Z @ lynx -dump etc will not remove menus and cruft around the text you want to read.

It checks every 10 minutes. 2017-03-07T21:16:51.000000Z @ What do you mean by time based? I added syncing with we-are-twtxt in 6c2038 but it simply compares the result against the last run? 2017-03-07T21:16:51.000001Z @ You have to set sync_followings to a remote plain text followings file. You can use we-are-twtxt, but any file will do. Better back up your followings before you test that. Seemed to work here, but who knows. 2017-03-07T21:16:51.000002Z @ At least you aren't under the last three. 2017-03-07T21:16:51.000003Z I just noticed that i still can win bullseye if write a short tweet for any long tweet i published. Maybe i have to rethink the game... :) 2017-03-08T10:45:52.000000Z @ Okay, added the new subcommand. 2017-03-08T10:45:52.000001Z @ bullseye just calculates sum(|140-length| for all tweets) / number of tweets 2017-03-08T12:59:15.000000Z @ Actually i forgot to push.

Also 9°C in Berlin, feels warm for me... :) 2017-03-10T21:08:58.000000Z Meet the firehose at https://domgoergen.com/twtxt/firehose.txt. It publishes the complete timeline of we-are-twtxt every ten minutes. I'll use it for my bots, so i don't have to hit your feeds so often. Feel free to use it too! 2017-03-10T21:26:57.000000Z @ I like the visualization of the timeline.

So it won't catch new users that had questions for 8ball in the past. 2017-03-11T21:48:01.000003Z @ I've thought you lived in Brazil, but right, Canada has also regions with -04:00 ... 2017-03-11T21:48:01.000004Z @, you were both winner and looser in the last bullseye! :) 2017-03-11T21:48:01.000005Z @ Can i add you the we-are-twtxt? And how does the telegram bit works? Never used telegram before ... can you chat it up and it will post to twtxt? 2017-03-11T21:49:59.000000Z Magic 8-balls are really awesome.

First tweet via mail 2017-03-13T09:43:04.000000Z @ RFC3339 is a subset of ISO8601, your timestamps are fine. We're not using 8601 as it's crazy complicated to parse: 2009-W01-1 is a valid represenation for Monday 29 December 2008. 2017-03-13T09:43:04.000001Z @ You mean the leap second in evil.txt? It's expected to break clients ... :) You can just skip lines that you can't parse. Although it's a valid date according to rfc3339. Maybe file a bug against coreutils? 2017-03-13T10:44:08.000000Z @ Mhh, i explicitly allow 60 seconds in my rfc3339 regex. Is there already a bug report for python? 2017-03-13T11:49:00.000000Z @ And to make it even worse, most clients interpret the data as win1252. But does any twtxt client autoconvert to utf8 in case another charset is send?

Probably easier to fix that in the clients... 2017-03-13T12:51:24.000000Z @ Is it? I mean it paints a pretty dark picture, but in the end Aral appeal to us to fix the whole mess without any corporate involvement. 2017-03-13T12:51:24.000001Z There are so many alternatives like ipfs or scuttlebutt, but i fear that we loose the simplicity of the old protocols. That in my mind is the main attraction of twtxt. 2017-03-13T12:51:24.000002Z I recently tried to write a command like client to GNU social, but after reading the specs on ActivityStreams, Webfinger, PubsubHubbub and Salmon i soon lost interest... :) 2017-03-13T14:02:56.000000Z @ I think we 100% on the same page about self hosting.

Your mentions are somehow broken? 2017-09-21T07:53:29.000000Z @ I like the personal touch that we are greeting new users! Hi, @ 2017-09-21T07:53:29.000001Z @ I take a look, it should work with every posix compliant awk, so at least oawk, nawk and gawk should run. What's the error message? Feel free to add an issue. 2017-10-04T07:16:07.000000Z @ Why not just use a menu and link your posts, friends and comments? I like the idea to use fts for comments! 2017-10-06T06:57:29.000000Z Hi @ and @, welcome to twtxt! 2017-10-06T06:57:29.000001Z @ No idea, i could just find https://robbinaer.info/index.php?article93/twtxt 2017-10-06T11:51:53.000000Z @ That's how i found you ... :) 2017-10-16T13:07:41.000000Z gopher://taz.de is now a thing. 2018-01-02T20:33:08.000000Z I've been really quite the last months ... we went on 6 weeks parental leave to south africa and just returned. 2018-01-02T20:33:08.000001Z It's really amazing that although we loose users, there's always also new users trickling in. Welcome! 2018-01-02T20:33:08.000002Z Night flight with two children who won't sleep is a nightmare!!! 2018-01-02T20:33:08.000003Z Just bought me a Kala Walnut Tenor Ukulele as late christmas present, i'm thrilled how nice it sounds! 2018-01-02T20:33:08.000004Z @ Best wishes! 2018-01-03T08:08:21.000000Z Welcome to twtxt @! 2018-01-03T08:08:21.000001Z @ I paid 170 Euros with bag, but if you're a beginner i would buy a something for between 50 and 100 Euros. Just don't by the cheap ones 2018-01-03T08:08:21.000002Z @ Not sure about the size though. The most known is sopran but i started with concert and still thought it was too small. #ukelele 2018-01-03T08:08:21.000003Z Though what do i know, i'm also still a beginner... :) 2018-01-03T15:58:02.000000Z Small feature for txtnish: You can now unfollow multiple accounts in one call, so i'm ready for the next stream of 404. 2018-01-04T11:10:57.000000Z date - Why does man print "gimme gimme gimme" at 00:30? ⌘ https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/405783/why-does-man-print-gimme-gimme-gimme-at-0030 2018-01-05T14:36:48.000000Z Just pushed 40kg of IKEA furniture with our Bakfiets 8km home. Thank you, Amsterdamn! 2018-01-10T09:30:18.000000Z @ I think we already discussed encrypted tweets some time ago, but no encryption seemed short enough. GPG ist just too big. Any ideas? 2018-01-10T09:30:18.000001Z @ You wouldn't even need to add the recipient in the tweet, clients could just try to decrypt anything. 2018-01-10T09:32:33.000000Z @ I'm so bad at tuning by ear. I have a tuner that just shows me if i hit the tight tone... :) 2018-01-15T19:15:06.000000Z Can be please find a better abbreviation for teaspoon and tablespoon than tsp and tbsp? Just threw away pudding bc I missed a char. 2018-01-21T21:23:46.000000Z Wrote a tiny script to renumber files after ordering them in an editor https://github.com/mdom/scripts/blob/master/bin/numprefix 2018-01-27T21:12:05.000000Z @ After choosing the last turn in gopher://tx.god.jp/1/numpop/, the script never returns? 2018-01-31T21:10:18.000000Z What do you think about adding aliases to txtnish' follow file? So mentions could be collapsed for different urls of the same twtxt file? 2018-01-31T21:10:18.000001Z Maybe without a new command? txtnish follow mdom http://new_url.com would just work and add a alias? And unfollow http://new_url.com would remove it? 2018-01-31T21:16:00.000000Z @ So, which ukulele did you buy? If you need a tutorial, i really enjoy . 2018-01-31T21:16:00.000001Z I always stayed ten feet away from our pressure cooker, i was always too frightened to use it... :) 2018-01-31T21:16:00.000002Z Just ordered a Hohner Special 20 Classic, can't wait until friday! 2018-01-31T21:27:02.000000Z @ I'd love to do pair programming again, but sure, it depends heavily on your partner 2018-03-14T05:35:17.000000Z I have a new project!

I like the idea, but somehow i don't find a use case for it... :) 2018-08-09T18:14:37.000000Z Hi @! Welcome to twtxt! 2018-08-26T10:47:05.000000Z @ Thanks for #hugo awards. All books for best novel were really good this year, but I somehow missed Six Wakes ... sound great! 2018-08-26T10:47:05.000001Z But i have to finish "Sea of Rust" first. 2018-08-26T10:47:05.000002Z Fun fact: OpenBSDs vi does not support utf8.

Programming gopher://taz.de was the most fun i had in ages. And it was for *work*! Kind of. :) 2018-08-26T11:30:29.000000Z fmt removed my escape sequences on openbsd. txtnish now defaults to fold -s, which makes even more sense as it is specified by posix. 2018-08-29T14:10:26.000000Z @ Minifesto uses more code than i would expect :/ 2018-09-10T22:08:41.000000Z New feature for txtnish: After setting add_metadata to 1, txtnish will, uhm, add metadata to your twtfile. Currently i only add followings, client and your gpg fingerprint. See my file for an example. 2018-09-11T07:54:17.000000Z @ Great! Though i don't see any metadata on your feed? 2018-09-11T07:54:17.000001Z @ The newest txtnish can show the users other users are following: txtnish following mdom (if mdom is my nick on your system) 2018-09-11T07:54:17.000002Z @ If everybody is happy with the format, sure! Writing a new spec is on my todo list for a long time. Maybe that's a good reason to do it. 2018-09-11T07:54:17.000003Z !!Con seems looks like a fun conference: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE7tQUdRKcyYK5q1bw_YlrnqOFv6_EOF- 2018-09-11T08:25:50.000000Z @ You don't even need the HEAD, you can just GET the twtfile with a If-Modified-Since header. 2018-09-11T08:25:50.000001Z @ Although i'm a gopher fanboy, I wouldn't use it for twtxt. It's really a optimal fit. 2018-09-11T08:25:50.000002Z And to be honest, http 1.1 is (mostly) fine, it's the stuff that is usually transmitted with it that worries me :) 2018-09-11T08:34:07.000000Z If your subscribed to 1000 users, you have other problems. None of our clients would handle that gracefully. 2018-09-11T08:34:07.000001Z I mean, you _could_ update with cron and then read the timeline with -U, does anybody do that? 2018-09-11T08:34:07.000002Z And we still could use range requests to just get updates, *if* everybody uses sorted twtfiles. 2018-09-11T08:34:07.000003Z Do you have ideas for a new spec? Maybe we can collect them on irc? join freenode/twtxt 2018-12-21T10:05:02.000000Z youtube-dl --extract-audio --audio-format mp3 is a life safer to get audio from youtube. 2018-12-21T10:05:02.000001Z Some seasonal music to get you all in the spirit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hvgZmAygX4 2019-01-18T22:17:17.000000Z If anybody want to take a look on my new project: https://github.com/mdom/termpub - A epub reader for the terminal 2019-01-18T22:17:17.000001Z Don't expect too much, it's rather basic, but already enough to read at least non technical books. 2019-01-21T12:30:16.000000Z Welcome to the twtxtverse @! 2019-01-23T21:33:58.000000Z @ Did you first try to install Curses from cpan? Maybe i can clarify the install instructions? 2019-01-23T21:33:58.000001Z @ I still have so much work to do in the renderer ... but the next big goal is to jump to a chapter via the toc. 2019-01-24T07:15:41.000000Z Is it okay to powernap at 08:00 in the morning? *yawn* 2019-01-24T20:15:43.000000Z @ Yeah, cpanm also needs libncurses-dev to compile Curses.pm. I'll add that to the install instructions. 2019-01-30T12:33:17.000000Z termpub features now start chapter detection, saved reading positions, following of internal and external links and a twice as fast renderer. 2019-01-30T13:24:36.000000Z @ You can't argue with math. My math told me to eat a Balisto. 2019-02-09T14:45:32.000000Z @ Woah, you're right! My anniversary is on wednesday. 2019-04-05T12:32:10.000000Z @ re:hyphenation That article motivated me to add hyphenation to termpub. Though i'm using the greedy algorithm currently. 2019-04-18T19:35:18.000000Z Hi @! 2019-04-24T07:51:14.000000Z Hi @! How did you find us? :) 2019-04-24T07:51:14.000001Z @ Nope, i can't reach the server either 2019-07-09T06:59:55.000000Z Good morning, twtxt world! 2019-07-09T06:59:55.000001Z @ Sorry, i haven't tested the build-script, should be fixed now #termpub 2019-09-24T10:58:53.000000Z Hi @! 2019-09-25T11:27:41.000000Z @ Can you maybe summarize the problem our maybe even raise an issue for txtnish? 2019-09-25T13:45:08.000000Z I just released my new take on an epub reader https://github.com/mdom/morepub/releases/download/0.9/morepub 2019-09-25T13:45:08.000001Z The script is self contained and should run on any system with lynx and perl 2019-09-25T13:45:08.000002Z Basically it just compiles all chapters in the right order to html, rewrites the internal links and call lynx on the result 2019-09-30T14:22:28.000000Z I just pushed a fix for https://github.com/mdom/txtnish/issues/11. It seems to work but i have currently no test suite for txtnish, so please don't hesitate to inform me if anything weird happens with mentions. 2020-02-17T13:50:07.000000Z @, thanks for the bug report. Does anybody have an idea for https://github.com/mdom/txtnish/issues/12? 2020-07-01T08:40:40.000000Z Great, I just listended so solosaurus #59 and now i want to buy all the board games listed 2020-07-01T08:40:40.000001Z Except Mansion of Madness - I love the theme, but i just can't stand companion apps. 2020-07-01T14:31:11.000000Z txtnish has an experimantal userinterface based on fzf since yesterday. What do you think? A reply feature is still missing, but that shouldn't be that hard. 2020-07-02T06:36:20.000000Z @ You can import twtxts config via txtnish quickstart. I hope that still works... ?! 2020-07-02T07:18:11.000000Z @ You're version of fzf is too old then. Reload was added in https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/issues/1750 2020-07-02T07:18:11.000001Z I could possible check your version of fzf and start the ui wthout reload. But that seems a lot of work for an experimental subcommand where i'm stil not sure if i like it... :) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEsMUmiUMnR+5/MyvYsWWE1G6zpRAFAl79ijMACgkQsWWE1G6z pRAWqg//XcrXVZuFb2cNuXpeyYXGBrzZKJ8uNcthD1JUl9kkoa8NpBaddkQYVIvs 304aiBR7c3iV1biWNCwXYZO+STCmnjJUGzjd15NDHhIa7s28VqDaqcxRYTrM1exU t3UF59G1adHUAP55Iv6VZEp4q7OUY4eY2S1t8XR30WscmTWY6rg2Yzol0B7uh4cA UARijuk9lFa68Els6qZqIh4GDZMM/LHEkZSaAFk5s5AAUIWRi6jHL6Pt1LKEYqh4 uwOy7xNZ6cXawI00nPHVQMCME8i+wE6iK4+8RRX4f20ZYC8wqH0atovo0F/6Hue0 xG5Fop99eWvI08rftiNGo75pmGzid4CIdZfquZn3qENsZMswlDpqO7QY0/1gLqYk cNSVTpazKaQKBzxtie6aTfl22KpChuCeRpWcC9p/rw9nYhi9JvOw0s9DyGuQ4PBX HlAiH36cFMGZX/JuGejS8eUSkX2ElRxRXehqbwP0B45hb/lItJ9JE/pX66EM2XfY gCnzh9rftEa/cBZ+3sAdsP1Ed580DnJteeWDiTyrPbqbWdCYd8j/gfOzj1QFIeqx UeDtpWB9NmEakPfFXd55L5YBDBOAuAByOypopm2tgGZ5YS3oC7YDEwQ6N0gu084C Z2NWt1Xq21jKv4QS9y82+wbCGm2zs5295Q+FE+SckVEBCA1KqkQ= =cMOO -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
