A Gemini client* is needed for the following links.
> It seems i accidentaly converted a coworker to the church of emacs... well it was a couple of months ago when she told me how much stuff she does note on paper and that her desk is cluttered and she is drowning in too much information. Well... i just mentioned that there is something called org-mode, gave her a few links to youtube videos and helped her set up an emacs with some basic quality of life settings.
> MIDI has a pitch_wheel_change event that may do things, and the things done may vary by playback device, which suggests writing some tests scripts to delve into how this event works.
> My wife and I were going through some of her old things at her parents' place and we made some interesting finds.
> She managed to track down her childhood Game Boy Advance SP along with all its games. A replacement battery was all it took to get it back up and running. I think she even managed to finish a couple of the games she could never beat as a kid. I thought about ordering a flash cart for it too but it looks like the good ones that people often recommend are so expensive that it'd be cheaper to buy a modern retro handheld and emulate.
> I don't know why or how he installed it, but the way I do, I never got into any problems with whatsoever. It could be the way he tries to install it, my only guess would be he might build it from source. Maybe some build dependencies are missing then? I've never had any issues with it on anything GNU/Linux, whether it is a Fedora, Ubuntu or Arch Linux. And it is usually just an aptitude install or pacman -S away.
> yesterday was the day when hashi decided that it didn't need the open source community which built it. hashi has decided to switch from mpl2 to busl. busl is not open source, it reverts to open source after 4 years. this is unfortunate, to start, it's a security risk.
> Just wanted to say hi. I think I'm not going to proxy content from http to gemini and vice versa, I think it is just not worth it. Gemini has always been an alternative and not a replacement, so it makes sense to just put a link to the web when I feel like.
Gemini links can be opened using Gemini software. It’s like the World Wide Web but a lot lighter.
