Discussion forums, microblogging, and Git issue tracking for the Gemini community. You only need a Gemini client to participate. Welcome!
Looking for an alternative, smolweb inspired, web browser... 🙏 — Hello folks, I am currently using LibreWolf but unfortunately it is still Firefox. I tested other alternative browsers and the best one I found has been: Surf; however it didn't match all my needs, which are: smaller footprint fast & light, alternative UI toolkit tab support ADS & Tracker block sock5 support easy bookmarking JavaScript support Usually lightweight browsers, like Dillo, does not support JavaScript therefore it is...
I am starting to monitoring mosquitoes in our garden. As I am very interested in insects, this is worth a try. Together with the children. There are various CO2 based traps to attract the mosquitoes. There is also a project to monitor, identify and map mosquitoes where you can send in the trapped ones. It's called the Mosquito Atlas [https link] anyone out there interested in insects?
Dice Poker -- no daily limit — [gemini link] Please play this game -- as many times as you like! I need to see how it does with a bunch of people playing.
When setting up an account for Bubble, what is it that the client must do to be successful? Same with login. My 'number one' browser supports gopher/gemini but I'm unable to login to this site and others as I'm not sure what is actually required to A) create an account and B) login I'm hoping to rasie a bug report for it.
Working For Two Anuses — My mother is known for not being able to say certain words; one of them is 'sheet'. I've tried to help many times and the conversation goes like this: "okay Mom let's try it, 'sh e e e eet'''... "shhhhh it". Maybe it's genetic? When practicing Spanish today I caught myself saying 'ano' instead of 'año'. As you may know 'ano' means 'anus', not 'year'. I wasn't trying to 'disrupt the class', it just came out that way. It's surprizingly hard to make even simple foreign...

New here to Geminispace, so it's not a habit yet. Now that I have to take care of a plant, I will return daily! :-)
Super trademark — So, yesterday I learned that “Super Hero” is a registered trademark since long ago. Fun times…
🚀 Going full Gemini — Since I am extremely disappointed by the weird course of ActivityPub, Mastodon, Threads and BlueSky... I am seriously considering to do 30 or even 60 days challenge using exclusively Gemini for my online social activities... 🤔
Things appear to be very slow here in terms of new posts... is anyone keeping track of overall Gemini activity?

I've been a bit lately getting into music, mostly live playing. I've been gathering some hardware synths, I have a guitar and well... most of the software for all these synths is Windows or Mac. No Linux. My latest addition, a Novation Circuit Tracks, has its software run as a webapp, using some kind of "WebMIDI" implementation. In Linux it reads, and allows some things, but when you try to upload a whole pack or a big sample, it fails. I thought "Oh, well, another for the Windows VM". Some...
Given the number of times I've just been farkled on rolls with 3 or 4 none held dice I can only conclude I'm unluck AF. LOL.
Mental Gymnastics: Hacking Up Simple Gemini Games — Surprize! 'Simple' things turn out to be much more complicated than they should be. This is my second go around: first time was spellbinding, which I implemented it as a specialized CGI program with a bunch of adjacent programs and scripts. While that worked, it required keeping track of a lot of details, scripts and cron jobs, and is so specialized that it's entirely useless for anything else. So this time around I was going to be smart. I...
The Lackrack begins! I've just finished putting together a lackrack with casters, as well as a top and bottom table surface. Next up is a patch panel, used Cisco WS-C3650, re-cased used Lenovo TS460, UPS, industrial 5v power supplies, and as many spare Raspberry Pis in 3D printed rackmount enclosures as I dare. The beefiest system will be running NetBSD and Xen for virtualization, leveraging ZFS on the storage. 64 GB of RAM and several WD Reds should do nicely. I'm thinking Kubernetes/...
I have started an interesting experiment: A Gemini frontend to my personal knowledge management system, Knowfox. [https link] Knowfox Knowfox stores all content as Markdown. This makes it easy to convert to Gemtext and display it. Saving content through a Titan request is a bit more involved, as I have to strip out the navigation and convert Gemtext back to Markdown. I have a local implementation working, as a Python CGI script behind GmCapsule, working against the Knowfox REST API....
Anyone else trying out making a gingerbug to make carbonated drinks at home? I'm used to making kvas here but not my own starter for the fermentation process. Just started a bug today and hope I get somewhere. I had a lot of fun working with yogurt once opon a time. When Dannon said they were going to patent their yogurt I was like, hoist up the jolly rodger we be taking some of that in the name of the king....
Duplicate page when submitting empty query string? — When starting today's game, the response was duplicated (see attachment). Otherwise everything worked normally. It does say "empty query string" in the second part, perhaps that's a clue. I'm still keeping my auto-prompt setting on so the first "farkle/app" will have an empty query string on it.
So, I don't know why it took so long to think of this. Is there a Gemini version of QRZ? The ARRL look up tool anything like that? Anyone got a good link to share?
Alex G - Serpent Is Lord — Here's a song I cannot stop listening to:
40m is working close today. I copied KC9HEK calling CW SKCC about 75 miles away but no reply to my answer. Copied WA2YLY in Hawley PA 92 miles away down in PA, short QSO. Bob was a 599, he reported me at 559. I'm only using 4 watts out to my zepp and there was some fade so if you're trying HF it's working but at least on 40,m CW it's real close in!
Dice Poker -- a new Gemini dice game (alpha) — [gemini link] A 5-dice poker game, inspired by @gritty. During each of 10 rounds you can hold any of the dice to build the best hand, and roll the remaining dice. You specify which dice to hold by their values, not their position! It's a little rough, and uses cgisesh (which is WIP) to keep state, so apologies if it breaks... But give it a shot!
