Ramen Review — Noodlicious chicken sriracha flavour, packet 65gr: Pretty good! Nice flavour. Not all that spicy.
Plans for self hosting my personal website — So after some thinking to myself, I'm now planning on using Filazilla instead of Docker, since I want to be able to host my personal website and my Gemini capsule without any issues, and I'm using Windows 11 so that's another reason why, and I'll just use noip for DNS stuff, or I can code something for DNS, I'm not sure. I'll also use pollux.casa to host my Gemini capsule as well. And I'll only use Filezilla's server end stuff, since I don't think I...
I've been without much motivation for programming... Do you guys know anyway to combat this? Like some mental-exercise?
I never thought of muting the Linux subspace before, but it seems like it's a good idea today. 😅
Which Gemini Server? — I am looking to run a Gemini server with CGI (and in the future something better that CGI) on an Amazon EC2 instance. GMID - unable to start. When started with -n, says configuration is ok. When started proper, just comes right back and does not seem to daemonize -- grepping for gmid yields nothing in processes. When doing 'make test', fails on almost everything -- localhost port 10965 seems not accessible -- even though I opened it. gmisrv -- cannot compile -- uses...

Linux Foundation is nuts. — Words are words, and like any blunt object may be used as a weapon or a stepstool. Unfortunately the Linux foundation, instead of focusing on Linux wants to change our language under the banner of 'diversity and inclusivity' by banning words. Master/Slave, valid engineering terms, out. Retarding, nope. I imagine, delayed is also frowned upon. Blacklist is not allowed. Whitelisting is also racist. Black anything is a nono. How about brown, yellow, pink, rainbow or...
I've been gaining some momentum with Lagrange development after the summer vacations. I would expect version 1.19 to be ready for release soon(ish?). The focus for new features will be on the sidebars, but I've been fixing little UI glitches here and there in other places, too.
Another Mini Rant — Just downloaded my Game roms and retroarch onto my laptop, instead of a usb/hardrive, then I'll save both onto my games folder on my TB hard drive. Apparently Android is getting locked down by Google for "safety reasons" I'm starting to believe that corporations just want an excuse to get people's gov IDs and of coarse they want people to use their bs LLM Ai crap as well, so typical. I still hope the LLM AI bubble bursts and these stupid corporations learn something for...
I'm just going to listen to Demoscene songs from Scenestream (Or Nectarine) I recommend it! 🍊
Any tips? I’m looking for a VPS to run a Gemini server. What kind of software requirements should a VPS have to make sure it’ll actually work? And what are the usual keywords I should keep an eye out for? Some concrete suggestions for a VPS provider? Thanks a lot!
I am toying with the idea of creating a software store in gemini. (pay and download binaries kind of workflow) My idea is to port what I have here: to a text based experience. I think it is possible. I believe it would be the first of its kind as well.
I have seen *perfect* summary, for google "sideloading" drama. [https link] Eugen Rochko on mastodon.social
Wherein the professor has no concern for the passage of time — "Professor, are you still awake?" "Indeed. I must complete my review of the results of the day's experiment." "But aren't you tired? It's the middle of the night." "Nonsense. It's still two in the afternoon. See the clock?" "...Professor, that clock broke when your experiment exploded. It's stopped." "So it is. But even a stopped clock is right twice a day. And as a new day has not yet begun, there's still an opportunity for it...
Usenet — I miss usenet. It seems the free servers (AIOE, eternal september) have been down for some time, and sdf also lost its feed. Anyone have a recommendation for a server (free or not)?
Suggestion: Treat notifications for new threads differently — When I go to my notifications to look at a new thread, what I'll do is open the "user posted" notification and then scroll the page to see its comments. But that doesn't mark the notifications for comments in those posts as read, so I have to either open them manually or clear all. I'd like it if when I open a new post notification, all of its comments are also marked as read with it.
And my internet is down for hours again, second time this week. Manhattan is a third world country.
Trying to make a proper yaml file for my docker mirror of my website. — Not sure if this counts as programming, but here's an image of a yaml file I made from a Docker and Nginx tutorial video by MadhuKraft. Please let me know if I need to change some stuff, since I'm still new to Docker.

I've been on and off dumbphones for couple of years now. Similar to my smoking habbit really. My current set to fight the online/sharing/being noticed is: I have an old Nokia e71 and a new Nokia flip that I use away from home. I bought an old digital camera and a bus card and do my banking on laptop. I've a smart phone at home that I use as a hotspot and to check signal messages. To ensure, or atleast make it more likely, I have degoogled and dumbed down the smart phone. I have only Rosy crow,...
5.3.0 — Alhena 5.3.0 has been released for completionists. No major enhancements but a few minor ones with the usual smattering of small fixes. Maytag mode is right around the corner. I took German in high school so maybe I'll do a translation first.
Are we under attack?
Andrei Tarkovsky movies on YouTube — I recently found two movies directed by Andrei Tarkovsky on YouTube; first, Stanisław Lem's "Solaris" and then "Stalker" by the Strugastky brothers. Real SF gems, with English subs, free to watch at the time of this writing: Solaris [https link] Stalker [https link] Both books & movies are classics.
