at some point i will unfuck my mkfiles so i don’t have to do a full rebuild to properly regerate the indexes

this is a test

(#yqke7sq) I’ve been sketching out some gemini-specific offline social stuff here https://ix.cyb.red/wiki/pikabu, but for the online parts i’d be willing to adopt what tw.txt protocols work under the constraints of gemini

(#yqke7sq) @prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de my setup is pretty old-school tw.txt hosting-wise. just a text file and a very simple static bridge for pikkulog-style subscribers on gemini. i do try to keep up on the twtxt format spec so i’m publishing a modern and well-formed feed. my dual-hosted website/gemcapsule is meant to eventually be entirely bespoke (my friend wrote the gemini server i’m using, so that counts enough for now) and i’d like to eventually support some of the server extensions that yarn has piloted. follow-wise, rn i kinda just manually try to pick up on who is following me by browsing random feeds. my custom clients usually do a FoaF crawl, but i don’t have anything that really works running rn.

my whole life, i’ve been leaving things behind. venturing far away from everything that i know. these days, i’m trying to find connections that i can still rekindle, mend, and remember. this is much much harder than what i was used to

early preview of my new web-based twtxt client https://sunshinegardens.org/static/howl/

moving to a new town is lonely, i think i’m lonely. maybe that’s why things have been so hard..

the new post-quantum encryption algos have dope names CRYSTALS-Kyber, CRYSTALS-Dilithium, SPHINCS+, FALCON https://www.nist.gov/news-events/news/2023/08/nist-standardize-encryption-algorithms-can-resist-attack-quantum-computers

i’m over here thinking about how to get free internet to millions of people and keeping the system requirements as low as possible.

but everyone is talking about making a computer using scraps that can barely render a few lines of ACII and maybe some non-latin characters as images.

imo the only useful application would be so that I never have to get a new computer again unless mine breaks. i like being able to talk to people from around the world, so its going to have to include internet and video (y’all saw the impact tiktok had on the gaza situation, can’t deny that video is important)

what’s that point of permacomputing?

trying to be alive, part 2: in the city of angels

some day, you’ll be able to download nix-on-android from f-droid and nix run git+https://git.cyb.red/pkgs/free-internet.flake and join the no se vende mesh collective.. something like that

i’m excited about how the new system is coming together. i’ve chosen bento as the system admin runtime. the centralized model simplifies some things and encourages people to setup their own (if small) binary caches. the whole thing is federated in the end and i think we can find some ways to make an HA bento. co-ordinator nodes i think are important for making a stable network. a spare laptop can easily buffer some power, run a secondary radio, and have an ethernet hookup. even a phone can make a nice one.

tried out a demo vm setup of nixos, but i really want to level up my server game and provision the whole thing using terranix.

NDN is looking pretty neat https://docs.named-data.net/NLSR/current/INSTALL.html https://github.com/named-data/ndn-svs#installation

this is what i like to see https://gerbil.scheme.org/guide/nix.html

re: reticulum i might just make my own internet replacement protocol if i keep finding out that the extant ones have yellow snake flag people attached to them

honestly kinda hype about this one https://reticulum.network/manual/gettingstartedfast.html#sideband I think some concepts from named-data networking (andana and statevector sync in particular) and secure scuttlebutt (plumbtree) could help make it more robust, but I like the overall direction and architecture a lot. the multi-hop transmission design in particular 💋

biiiiig oof when it comes to compiling big things on my laptop. i’m gonna have to get a binary cache up and running pretty soon

i have successfully put a docker container inside of a nixos container, a turturken so to speak. next up, we get arion-compose working in there and then see about mem_limit and cpus!

(#tm726iq) @prologic@twtxt.net Fair enough! I just added some metadata.

(#mlq66zq) Thanks @prologic@twtxt.net! I like the way Yarn.social is making all of twtxt stronger, not just Yarn.social pods.

Does anyone care about the 140-char limit recommended by the #twtxt spec? I have been trying to respect it but wonder if it’s wasted effort.

I learned a #Toronto #hex club just started! I’ve played since ‘98 or ‘99, but rarely in person. https://www.hexwiki.net/index.php/Hex_clubs

(#112523331886496813) Portugueses: entrámos em dívida com o planeta! ⚠️

Ontem assinalou-se o dia simbólico que marca o Overshoot Day Português, que significa que se todos consumissem como nós, seriam necessários 2,9 planetas para sustentar a humanidade. A partir de ontem, por isso, começámos a usar os recursos de 2025. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

É urgente fazer mudanças! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Para além das ações coletivas e governamentais que devemos exigir, todos podemos contribuir individualmente. Algumas sugestões:

🌍 Escolher alimentos oriundos de agricultura sustentável e preferencialmente local;
🌍 Optar pela partilha de transporte ou utilização de transportes coletivos;
🌍 Adotar a economia circular comprando artigos em segunda mão, evitando desperdício.

Não esperes por 2025 para agir e faz a tua parte!
