06:42 Techrights-sec; it appears to be a bug in the gemini client, if only the list were active

06:42 Techrights-sec; we could as to be sure

06:42 Techrights-sec; there was /also/ a but in how the paths were handle for the links,

06:42 Techrights-sec; thanks for finding that it's fixed now, but the problem with the gemini

06:42 Techrights-sec; clients still remains

06:42 Techrights-sec; I don't think it's feasible to escape all utf8, there were some French speakers

06:42 Techrights-sec; using Gemini. I wonder how they have managed

06:42 Techrights-sec; their URLs

06:55 schestowitz-TR; the 3am cron job did not work as expected investigating...

06:55 schestowitz-TR; the files should not be ready, I think key-based login or something similar fails as cron, still investigating

06:55 schestowitz-TR; the log file, messages, says it ran, but does not specify where it went wrong

06:55 schestowitz-TR; I'll write output to a file

06:55 schestowitz-TR; and then check againt tomorrow

06:59 schestowitz-TR; ---

10:53 schestowitz-TR; bear in mind I've not been seeing many friends in person since the breakout of covid-19

10:53 schestowitz-TR; the risk of infection only increased over time, now a "banality" that I reject

11:21 schestowitz-TR; COVID-19 takes its toll on young people, and even though it seldom kills them it seems to leave all those nasty little things for them to carry (for a lifetime)

11:22 schestowitz-TR; to some of them, that's a cost/toll worth paying to sell their "friends"

11:22 schestowitz-TR; I can hardly think of any common disease that is tranferrable by breath that does this much long-term harm
