~115k on this machine, similar on others. I’d say if I summed them all up I’d be in the millions 😅

In-reply-to » Heya folks 👋 For those of you that have accounts on my pod (twtxt.net), I'm going to be deleting 235 accounts today: https://gist.mills.io/prologic/0381c79977384051bb0b4afc89b4893d

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ahh heck you’re right! 🤣 I noticed a few go by that I thought “fuck that’s probably worth keeping” 😅 Oh well, I have backups, and everything is “archived”. There are ~314 accounts left LOL 😂

In-reply-to » I made some improvements to the Twtxt Search service tonight. Hopefully this update makes it a bit easier to use and resolves some of your critical pieces of feedback @lyse 🤞 The main idea being that by default the search is basically a "Query String" type search, meaning that it does what you expect. If you search for a simple term, it'll do that, If you enclose your search term in "double quotes" it'll search for that phrase. If you then want to search against specific fields you can do so with mentions:prologic@twtxt.net for example. I hope this makes the useability much better 👌

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Ahh I probably missed a few! If you still have ‘em can you fix? 🙏

In-reply-to » I'm starting to embrace containers on my PC for software I want to use once without littering my home folder with junk files. It's nice.

@mckinley@mckinley.cc That’s actually one of the most useful aspects of so-called “containers”, really images, or effectively tarball(s) with a full userland that you can effectively chroot in to.

@prologic Nice!

Btw. the versions in the search.twtxt.net and twtxt.net footers are both a bit wonky now. 8-)

@prologic FWIW, at least five feeds were not empty. But their feeds still looked dead, since the last posts were from 2020 and 2021. So that was probably before the date of last login was recorded.

Btw. how many accounts are there currently on twtxt.net? https://twtxt.net/user/stats/twtxt.txt looks like a grave, too. :-D

@movq@www.uninformativ.de wc -l .zsh_history gives me 7100. That’s surprisingly a bit more than I thought. I used to regularly clear new stuff by hand and keep important commands to about twenty-something. I don’t recall the numbers anymore.

In-reply-to » Started my day with getting all the materials I need to build a deck, dog yard will be built on top of that. That way our dog can be outside by himself when we go out and do stuff etc, gonna be nice!

@bender haha yeah. he’s never been free to roam the house when we are away, he’s either with us - or in his big crate in our bedroom (he’s not in there for long, just when he cannot be with us in the car etc). So it’s going to be damn nice to have a safe place for him outside. We fenced our garden in last year, he’s been there a lot when we are home, he loves it a lot (especially during winter). But we cannot have him there when we’re not home. But with the new dog yard thing - he can stay there without me worrying.

In-reply-to » One great feature of Vim (and probably other editors) is “keyword completion”: Type the beginning of a word, then press Ctrl-N and Vim will give autocompletion options by scanning all the words in the current file. For example, when I now type “au” and then Ctrl-N, it will suggest “autocompletion”.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yep, I use it all the time, too. Except for Go, where I use Ctrl+x+o for Go-specific completion. But Ctrl+n still comes in very handy for strings and the like. In fact, it scans all the open buffers for completion suggestions.

@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no you mean, you don’t want the dog mauling everything in the house while you are away? 😅

It’s 500. I never changed it, so that’s the default of either Bash or my distro. It’s fine for me.
