Today’s “Where in the World” puzzle was tough. gemini://gemi.dev/cgi-bin/witw.cgi/play

I grepped access logs and found at least three subscribers! @apex@rawtext.club, @prologic@twtxt.net, and @darch@neotxt.dk, hi there!

I might be in the minority on this, but given what small Web projects like Gemini aim to achieve, I don’t like the idea of establishing standards for Gemini capsules purely for the purpose of aiding automation.

All the scripts on my Gemini capsule (except chess) have now been rewritten using Python and storing data in a SQLite database. This is the first time I’ve ever worked with database in a “production” environment, and I’m inordinately excited.

My gemini capsule has a gemlog now and I update it usign a script I made…

Lab6, the zine about itself, just released Issue 3! It’s a PDF/Gemini/HTML/TeX/x86 polyglot this time. Great stuff! https://lab6.com/3

My Gemini log posts have been getting very long recently.

There are some Gemini feeds that Antenna is failing to connect to, and it looks like it’s clogging up the log pretty badly. I hope it’s not putting too much strain on the server.

LibreELEC dropped the RPi1 in August. There’s so little software left for the thing. All the more reason to devote mine to Gemini, I guess.

Gemini seems like a great community to revive the concept of the pen pal. Would anyone be interested in doing that?

Boot drive failed on the server that hosts my Gemini capsule’s headless repo. Now there will officially be no updates until it’s fixed!

@benk@kwiecien.us I haven’t actually looked at the original twtxt client, which means the following is ill-conceived speculation, but I believe that it only fetched feeds when you “refreshed”, with a minimum time between feed fetches. Sure, you’ll fetch feed unnecessarily now and then, but not nearly as often as polling every 5 minutes ;)

@benk@kwiecien.us I am using jenny (we chatted a bit on IRC earlier today). I have been using it for over five months now, I think. It is truly a joy to use, specially because you can use the power of Mutt/NeoMutt to read your twts.

Though twtxt registries never really took off gemini://warmedal.se/~antenna/twtxt.txt presents the last 7 days of twts known by Antenna in the registry format. It’s intended to be a help in discovering twt feeds in geminispace (there aren’t very many yet).

@benk@kwiecien.us I meant literally a few minutes 😄 @prologic@twtxt.net told me he’d just implemented it. Btw, which twtxt client are you using now, Ben?

@benk@kwiecien.us https://yarn.social/ has support for fetching feeds over gemini since a few minutes back! Not serving them there that I know of, but that’s just a matter of pointing your gemini server to the twtxt.txt file.

@benk@kwiecien.us Hello, benk! 😃

@fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com the things Gemini has going for it are mutual TLS and lack of JavaScript. Which makes for a secure albeit boring experience (much like gopher). The fake markdown is a bit of a drag.

A render mode for Gemini probably wouldnt be too hard. There are markdown to Gemini libs out there.

With Web3 the whole trust a 3rd party browser ext + high fees + env impact for compute and storage are serious no gos for me.. I have heard one too many horror stories about clicking the wrong link and some script draining your metamask wallet.

@benk@kwiecien.us Ubuntu is being similarly mean to me. “Can’t upgrade X because Y depends on older version. Can’t update Y because there’s a dependency problem”. I’m pretty sure the dependency problem would be solved with an upgrade, but I can’t perform one…
