A Gemini client* is needed for the following links.
> In this tutorial I walk-through how I set up void linux on an old 2013 Raspberry Pi 1B, then installed a GUI and configured it with i3 window manager, and the basic software I use. A follow-up post will be on my experience using this set-up for the Old Computer Challenge V3. I had originally started using a Chip computer but I rendered it unworkable earlier in the week so pulled out this old Pi I had.
> I did not set up wifi or a wifi card but instead just plugged the device directly into ethernet, which simplified my setup a bit. Note: I'm not an expert, just an ambitious coder-tinkerer. Directions may not work for everyone nor in all situations. You'll likely need ingenuity to solve challenges, and things could diverge from what I describe here. Follow at your own risk.
> If you reach this page, you may be interested into this new category of Linux distributions labeled "immutable".
> In this category, one can find by age (oldest → youngest) NixOS, Guix, Endless OS, Fedora Silverblue, OpenSUSE MicroOS, Vanilla OS and many new to come.
> I will give examples of immutability implementation, then detail my thoughts about immutability, and why I think this naming can be misleading. I spent a few months running all of those distributions on my main computers (NAS, Gaming, laptop, workstation) to be able to write this text.
> I've decided to write on [my blog] how I manage my manga collection with org mode (and orgtable / orgplot). If you want to read about the how, you can read it on [my blog (https)] or on the [gemini version] (might be less optimised and images are missing). Although I've explained the how I maintain my manga collection, I haven't shared it. Instead, I'm sharing it only here on my gemini capsule. Maybe people reading my blog will be curious enough to install gemini to read this post :) ?
> Kerkerkruip is a coffee-break roguelike game with a text adventure interface. This makes it unusually suitable for playing over gemini, and now you can do that: Gemkerkerkruip
> It's a mostly solitary affair, but I added a couple of means of user interaction to take advantage of online play: a daily leaderboard, and a "ghosts file".
Gemini links can be opened using => https://gemini.circumlunar.space/software/ ↺ Gemini software
. It’s like the World Wide Web but a lot lighter.
