Help wanted: cert issues Trying to register a new, 2nd certificate to my account on Station but when I activate it I don't get the "Join Station" link. This happens regardless of which of the 2 certificates is active. More importantly When neither is active, I am still logged in to my account for some reason! At the same time, on the BBS site, I get the registration page no matter the certificate I use (and they are both registered!) while I *don't* get the normal page when I deactivate the certificates. Any ideas as to what's going on here? Is there some cache I'm supposed to delete? I use Lagrange 1.19.4 on Debian testing

this Microsoft products story made me laugh. It could probably happen with any really big company that has loads of competing products. https://www.osnews.com/story/142882/the-most-microsoft-support-document-of-all-time/ the most Microsoft support doc of all time

what's your favourite cli tool to create text art, e.g. figlet?

my next door neighbour had a what looked like a cardboard box filled with electronic goodies outside his door. Next thing you know, I have 2 new computers including a Thinkpad T60 beauty from 18 years ago. Out with Windows 7 and in with Linix. It now sports a brand new version of Antix Linux distro. The build quality of that thing... I have another desktop computer to play with that looks cool and has a 500GB hard drive and an i5 based board. the stuff people throw away...

I just updated my bio. I hope I don't put you off by it. I really am struggling to be a bit more optimistic

FINALLY recovered my account password (thanks, KeepassXC backup and my former self!) and registered my new ID. I haven't been here a loooong time. Decided to head back to gemspace to detox and hopefully stay permanently this time. yay!

Just bought Grim Fandango, my favourite game of all time, again. Don't have the CD anymore, but this time, it cost 3$ on itch.io (it's a remastered version). I wonder if I'll also love it and finish it this time

The only escape I have from this madness is my child and Geminispace. Thank you Geminispace, and thank you Station

My daughter is 5 and we decided it's old enough to start playing a viseo game. I Finally I can justify to myself playing again ! chose SuperTux as my second game on the NES was Super Mario (Mario Brothers was the first) and I spent ages on SMB 1 to 3 back in the 80s. It's so fun playing a similar game yet that is new to me ! 😊😊😊

I found a book that may interest you: https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2023/08/thematic-books-series/ Thematic Book Series: How to Build a Low-tech Internet? We have launched the first volume in a new series of books opening up Low-tech Magazine’s archive by theme.

seems like everyone is working on their geminaut social network these days

Looks like there are a lot of skiers here...The new Gemski us unavailable

When I shared the news about the Amfora dev annoucing quitting Geminispace, some people replied here as if it was me who wrote that post. I just shared the post, you guys amd gals :)

"Bye, Gemini" gemini://makeworld.space/gemlog/2023-08-05-bye_gemini.gmi

Did you know about tootik ? gemini://hd.206267.xyz

The Fediverse grew so much in the past year. It is so exciting, yet bad for me as a late-diagnosed ADHD guy. I plan to use Station and Bubble BBS more freely and time my minutes per day on the various Fediverse platforms from now on

Really liked this tale of a Dragon's poo-dependent society, translated from the Polish original: gemini://archiwistka.blog/the_archive/a_tale_of_dragons_dung.gmi

If I only have a windows machine, is there any way for me to have my own server ?

just opened up sloth.run for registration. hopefully the new email works

hmm...tryingn to set up an image didn't work.
