in reply to XSF: XMPP Standards Foundation

I think that Matrix is better in the sense that there is one specification and two official reference implementations, one in Python and one in golang while XMPP has a base specification and dozens of additional specification and end to end encryption is either provided by OpenPGP, Off the Record or the newer specification and all of these are incompatible with one another.

The Crimson Diamond is ONE WEEK away from launch! Years of hard work on a labour of love - I'm so excited to finally share it. Thank you for your support & patience. Thank you to my testers & patrons. I say I'm a solo dev, I didn't do this alone. 🥹

Here's the Steam link, please wishlist! store.steampowered.com/app/109…

in reply to JuliaMinamata

Congrats on being close to launch. A couple of questions:

Do you plan to sell it anywhere other than Steam, e.g. Itch?

When you say it's an "EGA text parser" game, what exactly does that mean?

in reply to Matt Campbell

To clarify, I know what parser games are in general, but am unsure what "EGA" means in the context of a modern Windows game. Is it recreating an EGA aesthetic using a modern engine? Is the underlying parser-based game using an interpreter like Glulx or a Z-machine interpreter?

I want to determine if it would be feasible to make the game accessible to blind people using screen readers.

How to increase the timeout for a timeline fetch operation?


I'm currently trying to use a tool named FediFetcher, specifically to try backfilling certain Lemmy groups that are taking much longer than usual to sync, sometimes taking up to one week to receive a message. Unfortunately, I'm stuck in the step where I try to fetch the lists where these groups are, because it inevitably fails due to a timeout of 60 seconds that I cannot figure out how to raise. For instance, this is the output of FediFetcher:

$ bash fedifetcher.sh
2024-08-08 15:50:10 UTC: Starting FediFetcher
2024-08-08 15:50:10 UTC: Getting context for 677 lists
2024-08-08 15:51:10 UTC: Job failed after 0:01:00.229908.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/admin/FediFetcher/find_posts.py", line 1640, in <module>
    timeline_toots = get_list_timeline(arguments.server, user_list, token, arguments.max_list_length)
  File "/home/admin/FediFetcher/find_posts.py", line 1424, in get_list_timeline
    posts = get_paginated_mastodon(url, max, {
  File "/home/admin/FediFetcher/find_posts.py", line 1043, in get_paginated_mastodon
    raise Exception(
Exception: Error getting URL https://hub.azkware.net/api/v1/timelines/list/1. Status code: 504

I've been digging through the source code and cannot figure out whether the limit is on Friendica itself, on PHP (or FPM), or on the database. This is a list of files, and the edits I have added, in the hopes of raising that 60-second timeout:
  • /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf:


innodb_lock_wait_timeout = 600

  • /etc/php/8.2/fpm/pool.d/friendica.conf:


pm.max_requests = 0
request_terminate_timeout = 1d
php_admin_value[max_execution_time] = 600
php_admin_value[set_time_limit] = 0

  • /var/www/friendica/config/local.config.php:


'worker_max_duration' => [
    Friendica\Core\Worker::PRIORITY_CRITICAL   => 1440,
    Friendica\Core\Worker::PRIORITY_HIGH       => 20,
    Friendica\Core\Worker::PRIORITY_MEDIUM     => 120,
    Friendica\Core\Worker::PRIORITY_LOW        => 360,
    Friendica\Core\Worker::PRIORITY_NEGLIGIBLE => 1440
]

And of course, the "Network Timeout" option in the main admin page was raised from 60 to 600, to no avail. Any suggestions?

in reply to Carlos Solís

These are the wrong places they are meant for something completely different. It seems as if your webserver cuts the connection after 60 seconds.
in reply to Carlos Solís

I think I found the proper place to change it, for those that are in a similar issue. On your site's nginx settings file (in my case /etc/nginx/conf.d/hub.azkware.net.d/friendica.conf), edit this section to add the following parameters (which I copied from the defaults for Nextcloud):
 location ~ \.php(?:$|/) {
    fastcgi_read_timeout 600;
    fastcgi_send_timeout 600;
    fastcgi_connect_timeout 600;
    proxy_connect_timeout 600;
    proxy_send_timeout 600;
    proxy_read_timeout 600;
    send_timeout 600;
  }


Спит Москва. В ночной столице
В этот поздний звездный час
Только Сталину не спится -
Сталин думает о нас.

Сегодня выдался богатый день, а это я только одно издание посмотрел.

- Путин подписал закон об ужесточении наказания за пропаганду наркотиков
- Путин подписал закон о наказании военнослужащих за гаджеты
- Путин разрешил признавать любые иностранные организации нежелательными
- Путин подписал закон о запрете треш-стримов

Особенно интересен закон про запрет "треш-стримов". Везде его называют именно так, хотя из текста следует, что под запрет попадают видео с любым противоправным контентом, т.е. не обязательно выгонять свою девушку на мороз или бить бабушку, можно показывать процесс дачи взятки или дискредитировать тех, кого нельзя дискредитировать. И в качестве наказания там обязательная конфискация инструментов производства материалов (компьютера как минимум т.е.). И "зарегистрированные СМИ" под него не попадают, поэтому когда РТ показывают расстрел из миномёта, то это не оно.

С наркотиками не так интересно, но тоже резиновый закон и под него попадает масса уже существующих произведений с 1 сентября 2025.

Buster is a browser extension that solves captchas for you.

It leverages the fact that blind people should be allowed to use the web too.

github.com/dessant/buster

I love this for 2 reasons:

1. Fuck Captchas
2. Fuck Captcha Companies getting free labor from people to train AI.

I hate this because i fear if it catches on this will negatively impact blind people's ability to use the web.

See also points 1 & 2 re EVERYONE.

in reply to Mikołaj Hołysz

I think all people deserve privacy and security in their daily lives, and the fact that the only effective captcha solution for people with disabilities sacrifices their privacy is a tragedy tbh
in reply to CyberFrog

@froge People also deserve not to see Viagra ads in every single contact form and comments feed, and that's what would happen without these kinds of captchas sadly.

As I told the @washingtonpost , Elon Musk’s political advocacy has erased any trust in the platform’s neutrality & spotlights which accounts get restricted, suspended, supported, or promoted. Neutrality has left the building. Institutions must adapt, faster.

in reply to Alex Howard

Open questions:
How should institutions respond to a tech CEO abandoning neutrality on a platform that continues to have disproportionate influence around the world?
How should governments respond?
How should media companies respond? How should other tech companies respond?
How will you respond?

@mush42 The article? The error in my original post sharing the link was my fault; I calculated the percentage wrong.


do not drink something when you listen to this. there is your warning. so I wanted to see how bixby sounded when it spelled something. I started bixby on my watch and asked it how to spell something. I wasn't expecting what happened. it switched to my pphone, and used my personal voice to spell it. I was hoping for the watch to spell it with the voice I have selected on my watch. that did not happen. so here is bixby using my voice to spell something. this is rather painful, but funny to listen to.

#roffit converts manpages to HTML. Another side project of mine for over twenty years.

in reply to daniel:// stenberg://

That's awesome. I have recently been looking into utilizing manpages for API documentation (silly usecase, i know 😅) so someone can open /manpage or use curl and get all available APIs through html or plain text manpage-like format.

Guess i should checkout #roffit
