🌒 BBS

Discussion forums, microblogging, and Git issue tracking for the Gemini community. You only need a Gemini client to participate. Welcome!

Tree identity — So I had a random idea, and hopefully, someone more knowledgeable in the internals of x509 and related technologies can chime in. When, say, Lagrange encounters a page requesting a client certificate, it offers you an option to generate a certificate explicitly for this particular server. The certificate remains entirely disconnected from any other certificate you might be using. Which is both a good thing, as it ensures privacy, and a not so good thing, as it prevents you,...

Blog dillema — In a recent discussion here on BBS, I told I had nobody to talk to. Many people chimed in. One commenter suggested that I should make a blog instead and I would attract people that wanted to discuss the same topics. After thinking about it for a while, I think this commenter might be right about it. It might be the only way for me. I kind of opposed the idea of a blog because I didn't want to attract attention or fame. I wanted to discuss things with few people while remaining a...

I found I2P to be perfect for privacy in conjunction with the Gemini protocol. I created this subspace to support new members who have questions about this technology and server setup, as I2P does not require a hosting provider or a dedicated IP.

@admin Thanks for the add!

any good guides to hosting a capsule? — hey everyone, im kinda new to the geminispace, and i wanted to ask if there are any good guides to hosting a capsule. i know i can probably find them on google, or a gemini search engine, but i feel like asking the people here directly would help more : D

Planned for a while, and I just recently added a .zip archive option for my gemlog in case someone wants to grab the entire capsule for backup or offline reading. The link is available on the main page: [gemini link] [https link] deployment script

Purple and Pink Fluffish — Another Fluffish drawing, I promise this'll be the last drawing of these furry fishy monsters for a little while. Please enjoy.

Thing you should never do #17: Do a deploy to a production server, then go to another continent for 2 weeks. 😅 I pushed an updated version of Stargate to the hosted version I run on stargate.gemi.dev:1994 but I forgot to update the systemd service definition to use the new command line args. The new version of stargate will default to generating a temporary cert for just localhost, which is what it served for the last 2 weeks or so. i just fixed it. If you got an certificate warning/error, that'...

I have somehow found myself doing a lighthearted talk on retro hacking this Wednesday. Would anyone here happen to know anything about it?

Gopher Proxy? — Hi all! Please a need some help because i don't known any gopher proxy for add in Alhena, can anyone help me with that, please? Maybe the developers could consider including gopher support by default in future releases? Kind regards!

🖥️ Lenovo P510 PSU Troubles: Temporary and Permanent Fix — A short log of troubleshooting adventures with my Lenovo ThinkStation P510. What started as a simple click and no power mystery turned into a proper PSU replacement story. [gemini link] 🖥️ Lenovo P510 PSU Troubles: Temporary and Permanent Fix

I wonder if ink could be wired up to serve the interface as a Gemini capsule. Could make for some cool interactive friction. [https link]

some crypto art i made — im a little weird about cryptocurrencies. i really like them. in a weird way. heres my art of some of them thanks for looking at my crypto object art. i will now die in a ditch

What's up, Geminispace, anything new going on?

Have you heard of p2p panda? Some interesting projects. I keep checking on them every six months or so to see if I want to build anything with the tech. [https link]

I don’t get the association of Gemini protocol and CGI. CGI seems like a rather weird tech.

Multi-player gopher game system — I find it interesting that I stumbled upon this capsule and specifically this subspace when I did. I recently started designing a game "system" (for lack of a better word at present) for Gopher to allow multi-player turn-based game engines to be written in a more-or-less UI agnostic way (which means they could theoretically be ported to Gemini or to the Web with little to no change). A game engine will provide the game logic and handle input (user actions) and...

alt.cyberpunk — Anyone in here "over there"? Quite a few users have started populating the alt.cyberpunk.tech group

gemini and openssl 1.0.2u — Will Lagrange or other Gemini browsers connect to the server that works with OpenSSL-1.0.2u? I want to add gemini protocol to the Indy (Internet Direct) components for Pascal. Those can be used with FreePascal/Lazarus as well and they come by default with Embarcadero (formerly Borland) IDE's. It is much easier juts to implement Spartan or Gemini without integrating it to any framework. But I want to integrate to Indy. Indy, by the way has Gopher support, Finger...

Some people are complaining that new members can't join BBS because of anti-bot protection. If that's true, it's not cool, as it simply makes it harder for them to join Geminispace..

What is amazing is that I am not getting any better at it, no matter how much I play. And I play an awful lot. Once the bottom row gets an accidental 1 or 2, there is just no way to get past it. I almost thought I could get the 9 or the 10 back into the corner, but it takes so much effort that it's not worth it.

Recently tested the minimalistic, radio-first oriented Reticulum network with its NomadNet/LXMF implementation, but I still don't understand how to host a Gemini capsule there e.g. when the global network is down. It seems I need to convert everything to Micron. It's frustrating!
