Capsule Is Not Dead

My capsule is not dead; I've just been very busy! 2021 is finally over, and truth be told it was kind of a drag. I am just a few weeks away from graduation, so of course most of my life energy is focused on school right now plus a bunch of other issues.

A Fresh Start

However, I feel that the new year is a fresh start to pay attention to my capsule more again and add some new content. I tried doing a gemcast last week but deleted the initial recording because I didn't really like how it turned out. However, I have some ideas floating around for new episodes, so we'll see how that goes. Stay tuned!

New E-mail Address

One change I made for the new year seemingly on a whim is that I changed my primary e-mail address. The old one still works, but I've pretty much moved everything over to my tilde.team address. It's possible I only did this for aesthetic reasons, because I think it's a cool looking and sounding address. I already migrated my Delta Chat over to it and will likely be responding to e-mails that way. I haven't really done e-mail on mobile for several years, although I can't remember how many. In 2022 we're going to see how that goes. (MEGA -- Make E-mail Great Again?)

The Mailing List Is Down

Until further notice, the Gemini mailing list is down! I was told this was due to a hard drive failure over at orbitalfox.eu. I will try to keep you informed of the latest developments. In the mean time, I offer the geminauts@chat.kwiecien.us XMPP chat room as an unofficial gathering point for community members. (Long live XMPP!)

Conclusion

As you can see, 2022 is exciting already. These are the first of many amazing changes and developments to come. I wish you all good health and cheer.
