hey ~clubbers,
I've just set up a tool called `tilde` that can be used to submit, find,
and run user-submitted scripts. I originally created it for tilde.team
at some point last year.
To get started, run `tilde` at your shell. To qualify for submission, a
script must be:
1) executable with a proper shebang
2) in your ~/bin dir (make it if it doesn't exist)
3) responds to a help or --help subcommand
4) have a unique name (not a system tool or subcommand)
Feel free to ask here or on irc if you have any questions about
submitting or using other users' scripts!
Happy scripting/programming!

Hullo, ~pfhawkins here
It's been quite fun seeing the rebirth and explosion of the mailing list
this week, but haven't had a chance to *really *sign on until today.
Every 3-6 months I'll get an email from someone setting up an alternative
server, or letting me know that their alternatilde is being mothballed, and
I'll update those lists accordingly. But that's the extent of my
involvement these past years.
Mosh is still working with my ssh key, so that's great fun. But I've
completely forgotten my password and will need to reset it to get into my
server mail. I'm glad this forwards onto my personal email.
The little blog I set up on my main page was built in middleman, a static
site generator… I don't even use ruby any more really. Hopefully in the
near future I'll have time to port that over to Hugo.
That's all I've got for now. If anyone can point me to how to get my
password changed, I'll be most grateful.
Thanks,
~pfhawkins

Hello all,
As is being discussed, many believe that tilde.club will benefit from a
codification of how members are expected to conduct themselves, a
veritable "Code of Conduct" if you will. Many are aware of the "no
drama" rule that has existed for some time, and as far as I know that
rule still exists. But perhaps as the community rapidly grows and is
relaunched, it is prudent to explore options for writing down specific
conduct that will not be tolerated and how incidents of such conduct
will be dealt with.
Anyways, I don't think this has to be a, you know, HR-wheels-in-the-VCR
kind of moment. But I think it's important, and I wanted to kick off the
discussion on the mailing list.
See this issue on Github: https://github.com/tildeclub/tilde.club/issues/94
And here are some open questions:
What does a Code of Conduct for tilde.club look like? Is it a web page?
Something else?
Who is responsible for responding to claims of violation of the Code of
Conduct?
Is it satisfactory or sufficient to grab a free and open Code of Conduct
from another community or another tilde? What modifications would we
need to make to something like this?
Who should be responsible for drafting or writing the Code of Conduct?
How will a proposed Code of Conduct be approved by the community? What
is the standard for adoption? Consensus? Does there need to be a vote?
How do we avoid being "bogged down" in process, beauracracy,
rules-lawyering or administrivia?
How do we create a Code of Conduct that is inclusive and empowering? Are
those properties that we even want?
I'm excited to be a part of this process, and again, just want to kick
off the discussion. I know my own answers to some of those questions,
but hopefully there will be plenty of other opinions.
Cheers,
-Travis (~audiodude)
folks... i tried to log in for the first time since 2014 and my first three
password attempts were rejected. then the second time i tried to log in,
the server stopped responding!
i don't know if it was unlucky synchronicity or what but now i of course
feel like i am the one who caused this! although i don't even know if it's
related! i'm sorry everyone!!!
Hey ~ clubbers, this is a weird one, but I also feel like I’m among fairly self-aware people here, many I am familiar with and respect, and many others who are the kind of people who would be on this list to begin with.
I doubt the question I’m posing will be lost on you. And if it goes unanswered, well, I know it’s a pretty expansive and personal question. Maybe some of you will find it relevant, maybe you won’t. At the heart of the issue is my love of making things, and finding myself with no direction that leads me toward doing so.
Think that’s enough self-conscious sandbagging to cover the bases.
I’m 33 and I’ve been self-employed as a writer for most of my adult life. I stuck with it because circumstances demanded it – I’ve dealt with a lot of weirdly evenly spaced deaths in my family, been an estate executor twice, and now I am the last of my kind. I’m good at what I do, I negotiate and organize like nobody’s business, I work hard, I’ve got intensity and grit, I am dead calm in any storm. All things I learned from being executor of two estates at 19 while attending school full time.
The problem is, I no longer know what to do with any of that. Life quieted down so much after fifteen years of utter chaos, and now I’m incredibly aware of the fact that I’ve got nowhere to go back to and nowhere I’m expected to show up. I feel like a ship without a rudder, just drifting around without any direction, on a sea that’s gone calm for the first time I can remember.
It’s got me thinking of what all of the energy I used on tragedy could go toward. How I might be even better at my work. It’s got me thinking about taking a full time job somewhere I can mitigate chaos and make life easier for others besides myself. It’s got me thinking about going off to some foreign country for a few years. I don’t know. I’ve just started taking really crazy shots in the dark lately to try to find new things I could say yes to, but I don’t have any real sense of direction.
I don’t know if there’s an “answer” that makes this adrift, dislodged, floating feeling go away, but I need to find some new way forward now that it seems none of the old rules that I’m used to apply anymore.
If you’ve felt anything like this before, how’d you deal with it?
Hi Friends,
I cleaned up the webring and hit counter that I built during the original
tilde push in 2014.
You can join the webring here: http://tilde.club/~harper/join.html
and use the hit counter here: http://tilde.club/~harper/counter.html
yay!

1. Is the sunrise enough?
Today’s prompt:
Invent an animal for us and explain it in one paragraph. Where does it live? What does it eat? Anything unique about it? How rare is it? How large? Is there anything about this animal that will be interesting to my kids?
Holy moly.
1. Horribly embarrassed that I signed up for and got a ~tilde space that I did exactly nothing with. For 5 years.
2. Warm-belly-happy going through this giant mail-a-lanche in my in box.
3. I have abandoned all social media over the past year or two so, I guess, i’ll do ~tilde instead.
4. I don’t really know how to code so this might take a while.
5. Thanks everyone who has put effort into creating this.
Beste Grüße aus Hamburg
