Multi-protocol browser (Dschubba) Dschubba is intended to be a multi-protocol browser for use with X windows in GNU/Linux systems. It is FOSS, and is not written much yet; part of the decision of how to make up the data structures and a few other things. Goals (not all of them are first priority, though; some would be later): Gopher (without TLS) Gemini Nex Scorpion (with and without TLS) Spartan Local files TLS client certificates Bitmap fonts (including non-Unicode bitmap fonts) Never do...

Separate to my previous post about new server software, I'd like to sign up for some personal Gemini hosting for a gemlog and perhaps some smallish CGI toys. I've looked into various tildes and such and would welcome some input. The main priority would be ease of use (I don't have a lot of time to manage complicated setups these days). Being able to host interactive content is also a big plus, as mentioned; it would also be nice to have the gemini site be mirrored to HTTPS. Lately I've looked...
Would be good to figure out a system for dealing with changed client certs, preferably gracefully. I got a message from @satch, but can't respond because I sent a message to them with a previous client cert while trying to test my server initially. I suspect it'll be common for folks who build their own server or client to change their client cert while debugging and testing, even after sending a message to someone. P.S. - @satch, if you could delete my old client cert fingerprint for vi@...

Mermaid graphs rendered to ascii — Pretty cool really. A little go script to convert Mermaid markup to ASCII art. It can be even called via curl: [preformatted]

lagrange on android tablet showing as a desktop — I have a boox tablet, and lagrange installed on it, it runs on android. Lagrange displays as a dektop layout which makes it harder to manage. Can I force lagrange to display like on my phone? It seems the UI is different.

I have 2 gopher holes that I maintain, but I'd like to have a better Gemini presence. I wonder about automating one of these gopher to duplicate to Gemini. Anyone is doing something like that? I'd rather not have all my gopher file ending with .GMI But I am also thinking to have a Gemini capsule for a complete different subject maybe.. Also are there many agregator on Gemini to be aware of?

Misfin-Server Update 0.5.9c — More advanced threading system - threads now take into account the participants. A change in participants creates a new thread (or "branch"); which is actually a compromise that makes the system *simpler* because of the lack of message IDs and reply-to IDs in misfin. Minimalism often makes simple things more complex. Reply links on gemini mail interface. Misfin links now use new "misfin:" format (rather than "misfin://") You can install misfin-server here, for...

I gave up long ago on GnuPG and switched to age. age is pretty cool, but as a casual user I often forget the proper command line arguments combinations. Therefore I decided to create minicrypt, which only has two commands, -d decrypt and -g generate key pair. Encryption for a single recipient does not need a parameter. The nice thing, compared for example with GnuPG, is, it does not produce meta data and therefore is ideally suited for anonymous communications. [https link]

If you're using clagrange with less than 256 colors (e.g., TERM=xterm, vt200, or linux), please upgrade to v1.18.3 to fix the background colors always being inverted.

wow, without changing strategy, just playing like I usually do, I just don't seems to get anywhere! If I follow the law of probability I should hit very good games soon!!

Lagrange 1.18.2 released, mobile builds updated — I've done the whole gamut of builds tonight: desktop, terminal, and mobile. The changes are listed below. All platforms Misfin: URI format has changed to "misfin:address?message" instead of the previously used "misfin://address". The optional query string ("message") is used as the initial message contents if the upload dialog's text editor is empty....

I'm working on a proof of concept for that game I mentioned earlier. I won't give away too much just yet, but it's a word guessing game. The basics of gameplay are working; making it look good in Gemini will come later. The biggest headache right now is generating grammatically correct clues. Right now, the word list includes a lot of derived forms, like "walks" and "walked". I've used NLTK and WordNet to auto-generate clues, but the problem is, it lemmatizes words and gives definitions for the...

Lofi-hop track I wrote back in 2018 — Inspired by the last post by u/AlbertLarsan68 , I have published an old track of mine with lofi vibes. Even if it got rejected from all lofi channels I wrote to, I always enjoyed listening to this track at late night. I played all instruments on this track, except drums.

Threaded View in Misfin Clients — Since I have covered verification within misfin, I also want to cover how I have implemented Threaded view, and some other considerations that need to be made for Threading. Note that this is a client-side consideration, and has been partially implemented in misfin-server's client gemini interface, rather than the server itself. Threaded view tries to organize messages into threads based on a common topic. It is useful not just for responses to private...

Hoy, 12 de octubre, me es indiferente si un gobierno ofrece disculpas por los agravios de sus antepasados contra otros pueblos. Pero considero inadmisible que en pleno siglo XXI haya quien salga a decir que masacrar civilizaciones fue hacer las cosas bien. Les comparto esta invitación a mi `Cementerio de libros olvidados`, donde recién agregué `Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias` de Bartolomé de las Casas:

On 2024-10-25, I will replace the server certificate on Rob's Gemini Capsule with a new one. The current cert fingerprint ends with BB6C557D; the new cert fingerprint will end with 56D4B3AF. If you see "untrusted host" warnings in the near future, please don't panic!
