yesterday, around 4PM CET I've blocked all robots from accessing /git on my site.

• facebook still haven't got the memo
• petal also didn't

(and I also blocked FriendlyCrawler on packet filter. It's amazon's LLM stealing machine)

I just "wasted" multiple hours to write a script that does the following.

• Extract a website title and remove non-ascii characters and replaces spaces with underlines
• Download the website as an epub, with the modified title as the filename
• Open the Downloads directory in nautilus when it's done

The idea is to use my kindle more for reading articles because I get less distracted.
There are much easier options, of course, but I enjoyed the little project.

While the LSP protocol is useful for completion or access to symbol definitions, some of its features are less appealing. In #Emacs, you can instruct Eglot to ignore any feature you dislike.

E.g. (setq eglot-ignored-server-capabilities '(:inlayHintProvider)) to remove annoying hints mixed with the code in c-mode with clangd.

Hard to imagine a signal that a website is a rugpull more intense than banning users for trying to delete their own posts

We are not here to have an easy time and forget about it all. We are here because we like to gasp "why the hell doesn't it work?" or "how was it that you do that thing?" and then frustratingly hack our way through it until in the end it kinda works. This is a path of penitence and chastity from the temptations of the easy way through the clicks and UI buttons. We all work collectively to contribute to the elisp hive mind, until one day there will be the perfect configuration, everything will work out of the box, you will just have to customize your theme colors, and at that point singularity will be reached, and we will move on to ed.

Hello Emacs hackers!

A new version of annotate.el (2.2.2), a mode to annotate files without
changing them, has been released; this is a bugfix release.

This version fixed wrong coloration for adjacent annotations.

Annotate.el is available on MELPA and also on NonGNU ELPA; this means
that, if you are using an Emacs version greater or equal than 28, you
could simple run the command: 'M-x package-install RET annotate RET'
to install the package.

The development repository is available on:

https://github.com/bastibe/annotate.el

Happy hacking!

Fun fact: you can use Phanpy to read threads even if you aren't logged in, so its a nice way to link a thread for folks. Think of it like an unroll from the twitter days. For example, take this Lisp thread where we were debugging someone's use of the ASDF build system:

I feel so awkward explaining Mastodon and the Fediverse to people who have no prior knowledge of either.

I've used phrases like: "imagine if you could run your own Facebook (ew) for your friends and family or join an existing community of like-minded people".

I've explained all of these concepts time and time again, to people from various backgrounds, those in software engineering for example find the concepts of federation and decentralisation really interesting. Some find these concepts hard to grasp, while others find the extra step of finding the right community cumbersome.

I understand that "X" social media platform is where people are, but, in the Fediverse, where people are can be any one of Y, Z, or whatever; all of us can communicate under different jurisidictions.

I'd really like to know the examples you've used to introduce the Fediverse to your peers and friends.

Huh, TIL Emacs has a cheat sheet command, M-x cheat-sheet. Really need that for all the C-x r commands. Though, general tip: After any prefix keymap you can press ? to see all the keybindings under it, like so: C-x r ? (second screenshot shows what that looks like)

#emacs

An Emacs window display a single Help buffer. Shows all the global keybindings under the "C-x r" keymap. They are mostly related to registers, bookmarks, and rectangles.

Here is a directory of simple websites by @sjmulder:

Do you know more directories?

Most of those pages work well in #Dillo, so I'm thinking in including some directories in the Dillo website.

I released a new version of my #GoLang module for persistent message queues based on #SQLite today. I added a basic job runner, since that’s one of the things I most use a queue for. Check it out at https://www.goqite.com
