Cont. of my note at Thu 06 Jan 2022 10:31:56 AM CET. So, Russia invade Ukraine with their troops, and on one of the phlogs I can read that "more fault" is with everything else than Russia. I'm shocked again.

Who dare reads all zines from 90's? ;-)

For my personal purpose, there are some new Polish capsules on Gemini:
In coming days I will celebrate my first year in Geminispace. That part of net seems to be bigger than year ago. As @bacardi55 has written, I'm also using more Antenna/Cosmos than my Commitium. But I don't know if it's good thing? It was about controlling what to read by myself, not by the third parties. We should remember also what is the importance of blogrolls.
The second thought is that my Commitium is not so loud, at it had been in last months. It seems that many old feeds are quiet for long time. The Geminispace is changing before our eyes.
I've got some new replies for my question about 90's net. The most of them are on the local SDF.org board, but one is on Gophersphere.
gopher://sdf.org/1/users/xiled/phlog/2022/20220124_intarnets
gopher://sdf.org/1/users/xiled/phlog/2022/20220125_intarnets_2of2
It's interesting because I had also Commodore 64, and Pentium 75MHz computers. But computers in Poland were shifted by about one decade. So I wasn't able to surf net on my C64 in 90's, as do so Xiled in 80's (sic!). Possibility of surfing the net on C64, for me is mind blowing. Probably everything what had been possible in net on C64, I did not earlier than on my Pentium 75MHz!
When I am thinking about this I also recall first MMORPG (Massively multiplayer online role-playing game) which was also introduced on C64. People who even didn't see 8 bit computers, never will believe in this.

@bacardi55: I was thinking that is curated list of tinylogs, and you are the maintainer. ;-) So maybe it is why, there are no new feeds. People don't know how to join?
@bacardi55: I've add to my GTL one feed of my colleague, and I realized that there are no any Station's tinylogs in your aggregated feeds timeline. Is it on purpose? I remember that Station had add tinylog support on the early stage of RFC creation, and It seems to be quiet about it from that time?
gemini://station.martinrue.com/discrust/tinylog
@lykso@lyk.so: We shall defend our Tinylogs, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight by the GTL, we shall fight by make our Tinylogs active, we shall carry the torch of education in the whole Geminispace; we shall never surrender.
;-)
As I had written, I'm playing with ASCII maps, graphs and so on. Today I found nice example:
UUCP/USENET Logical Map - June 1, 1981 / mods by S. McGeady 11/19/81
It's funny that it seems that [twtxt] made more noise than [tinylog]. Twtxt was added to [Antenna] some time ago, and at this time there were about 10 active users aggregated by @bacardi55, and only several testing posts on twtxt provided by Antenna. Of course twtxt is reaching more far than Geminispace, but in Geminispace tinylog is more homely. For me the key benefit is that tinylog is readable for any Gemini client, ant it isn't only formatted text-file, at the same time it is offering the same functionalities, with the same simplicity.
I'm looking at skyjake's Capsule and I must say it. Is he has the most impact on the Geminispace? Lagrange for every OS, include iOS and Android. Some time ago GmGitView, and now Cosmos.
Lagrange is also the best Gophersphere browser for mobile, and its include Finger protocol. I suspect that many people can't access small-net without him.
[RuarĂ] has written about `sftp`, and this reminded me about my last adventure with `scp` on `sdf.org`. In short term - `scp` doesn't work for me there. I was in trouble, but I've read about `tar`. I'm not so novice in Linux, but I what to do with it about transferring files to remote machine?!
tar cf - sourcedir/ | ssh login@remotehost " tar xf - -C /remotedir/ "
VoilĂ . It works for me.
I've asked question on my Mastodon's accounts:
Hey #Gopher users, how you were using the Internet in the 1991-1995? I had been asking this question before, but this time I am with it specially on #Gophersphere!
gopher://sdf.org:70/0/users/szczezuja/novice/2021-11-13-How-you-were-using-the-Internet.txt
https://mastodon.online/@szczezuja/107605562986447761
I got several responses. I think that only three of them was about Gopher. But nobody could reclaim from memories what was read on Gopher then. I have some hypothesis that Gopher was less popular in Europe, than it is thought now. And it had less non-academic/official stuff, so there aren't any clear memories about that. But maybe I am wrong. It is said that there was official MTV Gopher hole then.
A new thing in Geminispace - Cosmos.
gemini://skyjake.fi/gemlog/2022-01_cosmos-reply-feeds.gmi
And my Cosmos Reply Feeds:

gemini://skyjake.fi:1969/url?gemini%3A%2F%2Fszczezuja.flounder.online%2F
I've been using:
gemini://geminispace.info/backlinks?szczezuja.flounder.online
gemini://geminispace.info/backlinks?szczezuja.space
Which I've been tracing by my script:
Any Gemini user don't think about a way of publishing new gmi files. Gopher user must think about it. So I had must also learn to compose gophermap, a special file which handle content on Gopher hole. It isn't any rocket science. But, Gemini users should be happy that they don't need to do so. It's a very delicate structure, which could be destroyed by accidental letter pressed during writing. So it's good idea to check everything after editing. So I have been checking, and I figured out that there was some mistaken character. The second thing is to remember about files permissions. So we could have directories, files and gophermaps - but there could be wrong chmod, so Gopher hole isn't accessible. I had also problem with them. After that there is some syntax for gophermap, there are also some constants for static structure, for directories, for files and so on. There are much energy put into the thing, which isn't core thing. In such way Gemini is more convenient. Despite that separating content form site structure could be interesting idea.
With help of RuarĂ's script I moved my Gemlog's articles to Gophersphere. I was thinking about it before, but I hadn't had such useful tool on the hand. The main idea is to move serie called "Gopher novice" and question about the Internet 1991-1995. I'm interested in Gopher answers so the question should be ask there.
My gopher hole is set up with success!
I've spent today for making gopher hole at sdf.org. It's hard thing, despite I registered a new account very quickly. I can't change shell before I will validate account. I initialize gopher hole, but I can't put files to it.
I would put there my Gopher articles. I'm expecting that I would get more answers for my questions of everyday use of Gopher in 90's there.
gopher://sdf.org:70/1/users/szczezuja/
It could be useful.

There is a new search engine for Gemini. TLGS is more kind for my articles. ;-)
gemini://geminispace.info/search?gopher
gemini://tlgs.one/search?gopher
As @deerbard recalled. I wish I will take more photos in 2022. And I will settle down with some gallery in Geminispace. Or maybe it should be Pixelfed? I didn't make any decision yet.
Interesting link from @guigui3000@pollux.casa - 2700 new nodes and 14 projects in Fediverse in 2021!
https://fediverse.party/en/post/fediverse-in-2021
During everyday browsing of small-net, I was a bit shocked about one entry. It was first time in small-net, to read something what I totally disagree. I live in Poland, where there were changed a lot since 90's. Before that we were stuck in soviet part of the world, and after we managed to join that normal/democratic part. For me to write about NATO, as something what destabilizing east border of Europe and Ukraine is insane. Especially that days, when it's possible that Russia invade Ukraine again. Writing in that way for Poles is something more, that again somebody want to put Poland in some grey area, between normal part of the world, and that post-soviet one. What is more, people outside probably often think, that countries like Poland should be put farer more in geopolitical zone of Russia influence, because it`s just the way it is. I think that that way of thinking is thorny point for every country in that part of the world.
gopher://sdf.org:70/0/users/agk/2022-01-04-gone.txt
Last days there are much buzz about web0 manifesto. It's nice, because it's a bit about acting like small-net, in that big one. But I didn't get the details, there are no any detailed description there?
Remember to check the news about The Low Bandwidth Guild.
It's good to remember this links. I often forget about it.

After `stagit-gemini`, second git repository viewer for Gemini - `gmgitview`.
gemini://skyjake.fi/gemlog/2021-12_gmgitview.gmi
I finally got the main idea of mcabber UI. I don't know, why it took so long. The key concept is to switch between `chat mode on` and `off`. Inside `chat mode` user can interact with selected JID and window (can also give commands without typing JID for selected one), out of chat mode user interact with roster (contact list).
With that knowledge navigating through roster up and down is easy, as navigating through content of chat windows and history of commands.
Everything noted as had written earlier, ASCII-art/yellow notes/cheat sheets concept.
gemini://szczezuja.space/cheatsheet/mcabber.gmi
It could be popular topic, to talk about Web3 nowadays.
I've spotted link on @toby@tobykurien.com tinylog, and kev@fosstodon.org Mastodon's account.
"The Third Web" by tante@tante.cc
"The Web Is Fucked" manifesto by Kev Quirk
They are summarizing the ideas, which could lead us to, or must prevent us from, so called, Web3 (with that whole blockchain concept, which I technically understand - but I still treat it more like some hype). Second one is doing it in denying manner.
On the Mastodon thread has mentioned also:
-- Not a word about #Gemini?
-- It's basically trying to fork the web, which will end up being a nerds echo chambers.
I will be surprised when blockchain will be part of successful Web3 (whatever it would be) with so uneducated majority of Web2.0 user base, which it is now.
It's more likely to increase Geminispace user base, what could be also a hard thing to do. Or it's only my imagination, that we are more aware, that there is a need of catching up scientific wide context of many things, in comparison to today's world of re-shares of catchy headlines. So people would trust blockchain and Metaverse, or try to be more educated (for example in building their own (small) net)?
There are no much movement in the closest Geminispace (and Tinylog's space!). There was 16th issue of Smollzine, which I eye-scanned quickly. Not much on #gopher and #gemini tags around Fediverse. I don't have also too much free time, I'm stuck on first pages of Liu Cixin's Dark Forest, without energy for the next paragraphs. I gave up Astrobotany, except for watering my 20th generation plant. I haven't took any photo for several weeks, what stopped organizing photo gallery here, on my capsule (it's available only on my Mastodon's account). It's like cyber-winter, when everything slowed down covered with thick cyber-snow layer. Waiting for the arrival of cyber-spring.
I try to design my idea of: ASCII-art/yellow notes/cheat sheets concept. It's mainly for my own purpose, because sometimes I am forgetting some keyboard shortcut and I must looking for it on non-ASCII cheat sheets. I will be completing it (rest of shortcuts and programs), if it fulfils its task.
First cheat sheet describe Draw-It plugin for vim, which I'm using for drawing.
gemini://szczezuja.space/cheatsheet/drawit.gmi
gemini://szczezuja.space/cheatsheet/tmux.gmi
I've installed new version of amfora and tmuxp.
Amfora has two features which I will try to use.
Tmuxp is helper for tmux. Some time ago I planned to use "tmux freeze" for saving my default tmux layout. For example vim opened on tinylog.gmi in left pane, and gtl in right pane in first window, and some next windows.
Interesting point of view on Gopher purity.

I've read The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin finally. I had two previous and unsuccessful attempts. During third one, I easily settled down into book's story. I like every aspect of seeking of extraterrestrial life history from this book. I wasn't familiar with, maybe base, concepts of such searches so every term like Kardashev scale was a wow for me.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale
Tinylog-space is silent!
I've disabled nerdtree plugin for vim. It's funny, but I don't need it and the most time I've been switching it off.
gemini://drewdevault.com/2021/11/20/Dark-forest.gmi
I had two attempts to read The Three-Body Problem, I'm preparing for the third one. ;-)
This is happen again. There is so many toots in my home timeline that I wasn't able to process them through passing week. I tried to read and filter most interesting discussion but ergonomic of use of every client is so poor in that aspect, that I failed. Now, during morning Saturday's espresso, listening favourite radio program in the background, I carefully read every toot on #gopher and #gemini tags in my CLI client. It's calming. I am thinking of the best way of rederict some activity from Mastodon to Tinylog, but the real truth is that above tags are so interesting that I want to be on Mastodon for them. Tinylog cant' replace it.
@deerbard: I have just watered my plant (about 90%) and one other. Sometimes I am watering only two others, if my plant isn’t dry. I am choosing top wilting (flowering) plants, from community garden. It could be month of my Astrobotany experiment, but only one or two people watered my plant in reward. ;-)

Hey retro computers and smallnet enthusiasts. Oscar winning Dune screenwriter Eric Roth banged out the screenplay using the MS-DOS.

According to previous topic. I was watching First Prize-Winners' Concert of 18th Chopin Competition on my TV and I thought that in today's times orchestra must be prepared for video streaming. They aren't hidden behind music, and dark of the scene. They are sitting in front of me sitting on couch. I can see every hair, every freckle, crease on clothing. Sometimes progress could be literally distracting. The same concert on 80's TV receiver would give them some more intimacy and space for music.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMP5qgci6_E
I like Chopin's music, I try to review many standards. I love Mozart's Requiem, I love Vivaldi's Four Seasons, but whole compositions of Chopin are unique. His music is specific, and instantly recognizable. It is not surprising that the Japanese are so interested in his music.
I've noticed that is some sort of tech-romantic answer to my "Gopher's questions", which I was asking. It isn't important how Gopher was like. It had been deleted so should be forgotten for ages. Internet Archive isn't the proper answer.

I've put my repos on Geminispace:
@deerbard: I don't use Telegram. But maybe it's good idea to start such activity on Gemini? My whole photo equipment is packed in drawer since years. I am doing only everyday family photos. Some time ago, when I had much free time, I was thinking about going into some film medium format system.
There were some discussion on Fediverse about absence of Solderpunk but he start to write. He must be photography enthusiast because he responded to the same post I had response some time ago.

I am writing on #Gemini mainly. But there is some magic to read that fixed length lines of #Gopher, with all ASCII-art decorations synchronized with layout of the whole article. It isn’t possible on Gemini. It’s good and bad the same time.
gopher://gopher.linkerror.com:70/0/phlog/2021/20211004
@bacardi55: Yes, I was interesting in generating pages for Git repository on Gemini. Because it's stupid that we publish our projects about Gemini on WWW. And I've found Gmnigit/Stagit. Gmnigit has lack of advanced features, and didn't work with my repo (I'm must check this again). Before this I'd ha idea that I will improve Stagit. But I'm in shortage of free time for doing such big things now.
Integration of twtxt and mutt.
I'd like to write about my Astrobotany routine. I try to check everyday my plant, I'm watering if is it required. If I have water for watering other plants I explore community garden, and plants sorted by health section. I am watering one, or two plants and pick up some flower in return. I'm doing this for probably two weeks, every day - it could be more than 20-30 plants. After you have watered other plants the owner can see it on their status. But I think that nobody has watered my plant in return. ;-)
As I have written, I'm doing very minimalistic approach of Geminispace existence. I have time only for watering my plant on Astrobotany, and Antenna aggregator. But today is Saturday, so I have some more time to do additional things here.
I have tried to organise my XMPP/Jabber presence and configure mcabber.
I looked in mcabber's source:
https://github.com/McKael/mcabber/blob/master/mcabber/mcabber/xmpp_muc.c
and found `settings_opt_get_int("muc_print_status");` line. Yep, of course I forgot about `~/.mcabber/mcabberrc`. I've put `set muc_print_status = 0` for `do not display joining/leaving members`. It was irritating. Finally I can see whole conversation at my MUC. It's great to has ability of reading sourcecode. Mcabber it's written in C, so it's inspiring to see old-school style app.
I also joined to `geminauts@chat.kwiecien.us` - there are about 40 Geminispace users, nice.
To answer Deerbard and say that's everything ok. I haven't found time to write here in last days. My work and home routine have been taking too much time, and are no time left for Geminispace.
It isn't mean that I would abandon Tinylogs.
As Deerbard mentioned I also noticed less activity in know Tinylog base. Bacardi55 has been also complaining for lack of free time. Maybe it's because end of summer holiday time?

My first computer was C=, a chicken head as I found today.
:amoeba: /n./ Humorous term for the Commodore Amiga personal
computer.
:chicken head: /n./ [Commodore] The Commodore Business
Machines logo, which strongly resembles a poultry part. Rendered
in ASCII as `C='. With the arguable exception of the Amiga (see
{amoeba}), Commodore's machines are notoriously crocky little
{bitty box}es (see also {PETSCII}). Thus, this usage may owe
something to Philip K. Dick's novel "Do Androids Dream of
Electric Sheep?" (the basis for the movie "Blade Runner"; the
novel is now sold under that title), in which a `chickenhead' is
a mutant with below-average intelligence.

I was afraid that after leaving my job at Calvin in 1993, I might not
be able to get an account which has direct "live" access to the
Internet, and therefore have no more cool gopher access. I expect
that no matter where I live, I'll manage to at least find a service
(free, cheap, or commercial) that will let me send email to Internet
addresses. My GopherMail program lives on an Internet computer, such
as this Sun at Calvin where it started, or the computers at U of Minn,
or maybe someday on every gopher server on the net, and it accepts
email requests from anyone, on or off the Internet. It makes the
gopher connections on the Internet, then it emails the results back to
the person who requested them, to whatever their email address is.

I've written on my gemlog that the Small-net is finite. Today I spotted social media with 2880 limit of users. Some days I figured out that Geddit (Gemini Reddit) is purging inactive posts. The same idea of limits I've seen on some Gopher aggregators, which are now empty because they are inactive for long time but still ready for new content.

In my opinion I have sense of humour and I like abstract way of thinking. But I never could telling jokes. Despite this, it isn't stopping me from seek people for commenting reality in such abstract manner. The results are deplorable when someone has no sense of humor. Dangerous when you find the right person. ;-)
For the rest of mentioned aging symptoms - yes, it's popular comfort zone. I like my comfort zone. I like my style of clothing. I like my favourite meals and cuisine. I like my music. I like watching the same films (I watched all series of The Sopranos more than five times etc.).
But... I'm Geminispace. So sometimes I bend my rules, a little.
I was writing about Internet Archive project for Gopher and WWW. I spotted two links for Gemini:

Second half of 1994 and first half of 1995 was period when WWW overtook Gopher and FTP. On my Gemlog I mentioned Gopher archive from 2000s and it's interesting what were happening in Gophersphere during this 5-10 years.
Today I have time for Gemini, I realized plan to write something longer and I fixed alternate texts on my ASCII arts.

@bacardi55: You are also absent for two weeks. Vacations time! ;-)
@adele@pollux.casa: Are you abandon tinylog? Or moved somewhere else?
Have you noticed that backlinks on Geminispace.info had been fixed. :-)
Remember my "Gopher Novice" posts? I've read article as below [1] and noticed that maybe I'm already "Gopher Adequate" [2]. ;-)
Lagrange support Gemini and, what it's new for me, Gopher protocol. Nice.

[Repost from Mastodon to QBasic's game `Gorillas` screenshot] It was so different from today’s time. Computer has programming language build into OS and attractive open source game to inspire people new possibilities. You can play and after a while in natural way go into the code. Look how it’s working, and how to do first own computer game. Today’s new programmers don’t want to code games, they code “my first” MVC and micro services pattern POC.
I'm using seven years old laptop and I have recent version of OS, with security patches from from the previous week. It's MacBook Air and macOS Big Sur 11.5.1.

Backlinks doesn't want to look favorably at my capsule. You can look at address as below, it's empty.

Bacardi55's lost capsule on 7th issue of smolZINE.
I'm also looking for the best Gemini sever implementation. ;-)
Today I realized that I'm bored with Mastodon (micro-blogging?). I'm looking at timeline everyday, because in January I discovered there information about Geminispace. So I suppose that I can find there something interesting again. But the true is that more interesting things can be found on Geminispace and Gophersphere. Less time consuming is looking at Antenna, some Tinylogs and Phlogs, and following people here in other forms.
I'm reading `Schismatrix` by Bruce Sterling. I've been inspired by zaibatsu.circumlunar.space backstory theme and I enjoy it. I'm not a specialist of sci-fi books. My favourite book of sci-fi genre are probably Frank Herbert's `Dune`. World created by Sterling could drive your mind in the same way like Herbert's one.

Re: @bacardi55 Sun 25 Jul 2021 22:48 CEST
I'm thinking about preparing text for copying by "system" mechanism rather than copying text inside `gtl` by its internal mechanism. Internal mechanism need some dependencies, for example to `xclip` and complicate whole design of `gtl`. For me the best solution is `toot tui` approach.
I tried to record some screencast.
1. I started at 5th tab at `vim` window;
2. I changed it to 4th tab with `toot tui`;
3. I choose one of the toots in my timeline with several links;
4. "Status links" dialog is helper for browsing several links, which could be mixed inside toot with some text;
5. "Status links" dialog provide also functionality of opening link by system browser - it works for `lynx` browser, but unfortunately it doesn't work for `amfora` ...
6. ... but I can use "system" mechanism for copying text, I am using `tmux` and I pressed C-[, and navigate to start of text, space, enter, I changed to 5th and pressed C-] for pasting. I copied text to 5th tab, into `vim`;
And it's all possible inside `gtl`, without `xclip`, but structure of information inside `gtl` window doesn't help to do so. Text is placed on the whole screen, not inside smaller dialog, and the active cursor is set on the last column and last line of active window. Because there are no smaller dialog, active window is far away from text I'd like to copy. And I need to move cursor to this point.
So I suggest dialog likei below:
========= Reply stub =========
[ ## <sysdate> ]
[ => <reflink> Re: <refdate> ]
==============================
[Ok] [Cancel]
When after pressing [Ok] gtl could try to run `xclip`, but everybody who don't have `xclip` would also easy copy text from textarea and press [Cancel].

@deerbard: You must correct your link for manifesto at index site. I've corrected it manually and have read it. :-)
My Little Art Manifesto / Mój Mały Manifest Artystyczny
Your manifesto is inspiring. I have three thoughts on it:
@bacardi55 - gtl testing report no. 7:
The most tempting thing in emacs is swarm of advanced packages, which seems to be superior than that of vim plugins. Vim plugins are great, bu there are in most cases rather like a powerful extension of text editor. Emacs packages are more advanced, and often they are like standalone utilities embedded into mechanic of editor environment.
Via: "Old Computer Challenge Wrapup" by jmcbray@carcosa.net
In Emacs, I used:
* mu4e – For email.
* Gnus – For actual, NNTP-based Usenet
* org-mode – For scheduling, planning, and note-taking.
* org-roam – For additional note-taking.
* elpher – For Gopher and Gemini
* eww – For most of my web browsing.
I have been taking notes the links (some HTTP, Gemini and Gopher). Now I'm using bookmarks in Amfora, and Comitium (Gemini) and Lynx (HTTP and Gopher) browsers. But I realized that it's too much notes, and in to many places. Is there any good bookmarking tool for linux, which could handle many protocols. It'd be great to set something like below for Gemini, and Gopher. I don't now how people are configure this in multi-protocol for (small and big) web browsing.
$ update-alternatives --get-selections | grep www-browser www-browser auto /usr/bin/lynx
New content on Gemini about Gemini space project, that real one.
I've installed Emacs-nox, Spacemacs config for Emacs and Elpher.
$ du -sh ~/.emacs.d 146M /home/michalus/.emacs.d
;-)
Because global warming era is approaching, and last weeks temperature is always about 30 Celsius degrees we should use light terminals, in text-mode, and do all of heavy computing on the server side. Otherwise, the computer fan heats up our room additionally. ;-)
The most unsuccessful part of my come back to CLI is XMPP/Jabber. I am so disappointed with Profanity IM, and I am so disappointed with my XMPP server, which seems to reset several times during the day - what Profanity write in console for several lines each time. It's the most of informations in Profanity's console.
The Geminispace and Gophersphere are intersect in the most interesting points of both. Users which are active in first, are the most propably also active in the second.
As I wrote on gemlog, and today on Mastodon. I am wondering what was the source of migration people to so simplified web apps. When I look at reminders in, for example, Google Calendar, and reminder command [...] it’s light years gap.
Today I discovered that gtl, running through Blink.sh on my iPhone, could be navigated by touching a screen. So I can activate feeds on Subscription pane by touching individual address. Combined with "s" for hiding pane, creating comfortable way for operating gtl on small screen.
It's third interesting link for today. Every GTA 1 player would say GOURANGA! ;-)
I was looking for the source of Gemini in Gophersphere, and somebody have written everything for me.
Interesting capsule - doesn't work in Amfora.
Alternate way of sending gemlog to Antenna:
timeout 5 openssl s_client -crlf -quiet -connect "warmedal.se:1965" <<< "gemini://warmedal.se/~antenna/submit?szczezuja.space/gemlog/atom.xml"
Re: Wed 07 Jul 2021 18:35 CEST
@bacardi55: There is a "toot tui" for that. But I think that philosophy of Mastodon-like posting doesn't fit into small-net way of life. There are too many boost, likes and chatting there. It's why we have moved here.
"Track changes in /etc with etckeeper"
@lykso@lyk.so: Gemini isn't too technical for everyday users. I think that it shows only that people aren't educated in computers. I like some gemlog post (it's in tinylog archive) that Gemini is a good way to teach children how to effectively use old computers (in opposition to buying a new one year after year), and UNIX systems. People can't use computers, they are using only Google, Facebook, and some other webapps. They are knowing lesser than 10-20 years ago.
A collection of awesome things regarding the gemini protocol ecosystem.
I have a problem with running gmnigit (go version mismatch). But this repo should have Gemini version (also with Markdown transferred to Gemtext).

I have a DrawIt vim plugin and I won't hesitate to use it! ;-)

Geminispace answered: Here you are. ;-)

https://git.sr.ht/~kornellapacz/gmnigit/
@deerbard: About making chat on tinylog. It's true that too many responses are hard to tracking. But I think that tinylogs are something more dedicated communication in smaller groups. I've written on gemlog about Gophersphere, and Circumlunar Zaibatsu. They base assumption is that they want to build groups of maximum 100-150 users per one server, and federate them in Circumlunar Universe. They also split user group of one server into smaller groups for better socialization. It's based on Dunbar's number theory. And it's opposite to Mastodon, where you handle many followers and toots.
I try to follow every tinylog for now, because there are not so many tinylogs, but in future I probably would organize it.
@bacardi55@gmi.bacardi55.io: I know, that it's GitHub/Codeberg is more popular, and more powerful tool. But I have been thinking about it, especially about Tinylog RFC, that for Geminispace oriented tools there will be more proper to do all discuss on Geminispace. It will make Geminispace more complete, and self-sufficient. Geminispace need a Git interface, and some workflow for such projects.
Todo.txt vs. Org Mode - I used Todo.txt, and I am still afraid of using Emacs. ;-)
There is some new antenna on Geminispace!
Experimental response format is looking nice in browser.
The second pros is that you will see backlink, for example:
https://proxy.flounder.online/geminispace.info/backlinks?lyk.so/tiny.gmi
@lykso@lyk.so: You can use tmux, and copy&paste via: C-A [, spacebar, enter (for copying) and C-A ] (for pasting). It's working with gtl.
Re: Wed 30 Jun 2021 09:07 CEST
@bacardi55@gmi.bacardi55.io: Me the same. I discovered that I'm bored with Fediverse, discussion there is in the most cases without any point (interface isn't supporting long discussion, everything is mixed up, and I am losting responses). And I also don't have any other social account.
BTW I try to use experimental Re: syntax for Tinylog. ;-)
@deerbard: On the rawtext.club you have also gopher server, so you can put Gemini capsule, and Gopher hole at once.
Gopher vs. Gemini, we are YouTubers on hyped protocol, and we will vanish. ;-)
Archaeology:
I've been browsing Gophersphere. I searched Veronica for "why gopher" term. There are many results on phlogs, and many personal posts about it.
"Web, Gopher still remains relevant. -- Cameron Kaiser"
Pubnix History Project (Gophersphere).
I've read about Gopher "The Circumlunar Universe" based on Schismatrix by Bruce Sterling.
Sorting lines in vim - V for "visual mode", select lines to sort, and do ":sort" function.
Archaeology:
The gopher lawn - "Categorize the interesting part of the gopherspace."
My study of Gopher is stuck in the same place. Browsing haven't given any answer nor new paths to explore.
I must catch up gemini-tinylog-rfc - there are so many changes, but I haven't had time to read them.
@bacardi55 - gtl testing report no. 6:
Jirait is a Gemini-based MUSH by Alex Schroeder.
Archaeology:
I've been reading content at Solderpunk's site. I spotted post:
Papa's Antisocial Media Manifesto (2018)
and after a year some continuation in post:
Papa's manifesto is also mentioned in post on dbucklin's site:
But, despite above posts are from 2018 mentioned Papa's manifesto isn't available. I searched Veronica without success. Gopher seems to be very volatile. Available is only the last mentioned manifesto:
Archaeology:
Interesting Gopher post from 2019-04-19 on mozz.us/phlog
Rather, from a perspective of "Why is everyone wasting their time on
this?". I can't think of any good reasons for gopher to *need* TLS
connections. Let's be real here
It could be some echo of the Gemini protocol conception, and the official birth witch came two months later.
It's obvious but I found it only now - best tool for browsing Gopher is Lynx. I've add some bookmarks for gopher:// - press "a+l" for adding, and "v" for viewing bookmarks.
@bacardi55 - gtl testing report no. 5:
I start to using more gtl, than lace. A new is coming. ;-)
@bacardi55: That frontend's author gemini site is down, so we can't see his git in that way. But from description it could be that. :-)
There are many WWW interfaces for Git repositories. There are mainstream GitHub, there are alternative as Codeberg.
There are (some?) Gopher interfaces for Git as well.
But there are no Gemini interface? And for getting a download link of a new release I must go on HTTP or Gopher side.
@bacardi55 - gtl testing report no. 4:
I try to continue digging into Gopher.
I) First part is transformed into gemlog entry;
II) Second part is still open question on Mastodon;
III) Third part the same as above;
...
Today I'm also looking around for some answers, and interesting gopherholes. Maybe I spotted answer for third questions:
* Zine which was published month ago, and try to mention Gemini, and _Gopher_ topics;
* As I found, its author is mieum;
...
Today I also have read good article about Gopher history;
...
I'd like to summarize all information, which I would found, in series of gemlog posts.
As a stranger in a strange world I am traveling through Gophersphere.
Thought for today - there are much more ASCII-art than in Gemini. There are graphical headings, and (in favour of 80 chars text lines) some graphics inside paragraphs - for example first capitalised letters, which got 3-5 lines of height.
Real baroque of text files.
@bacardi55 - gtl testing report no. 3:
Interesting post about junior developer meeting his boss.
It's interesting to see his junior point of view, and recall from memory my situation then, and now. Young people afraid what the boss could say, bosses afraid what they can hear, and sometimes take much time to prepare what to talk. Feedback could be hard task.
The worst is to meet lazy boss, who don't have time for prepare and don't have anything to communicate. But not many employees are dare to request a real feedback, also not so many want a real one. The most important in company is communication.
If there are any Gopher novice here, I try to get familiar with it. Report of a first clash on my gemlog. ;-) All Gopher masters could send me a backlinks. :-)
@bacardi55, @frrobert: TUI client for tinylogs, and all work of Bacardi55 is inestimable, and it's great job. It will overcome Lace in number of users for sure. But simplicity of 150 sloc script, which do so much is so inspiring. I haven't seen something like it before. And all this, against all folks which are saying that TLS is a big obstacle, in... Bash.
@bacardi55: You are right that Mastodon-like solutions, have content which is temporary in its design. It's something like /dev/blah-blah-blah, which is not far from /dev/null ;-)
But I try to organise somewhat this heap.
@frrobert: So we are using the same OS, and it isn't a version mismatch. Now I'm away from my computer so I will check again every commit and I'll send to you a summary what is working, and what isn't.
Previously I thought that uouu's version is the latest so I am using that version, and commit which I wrote in previous post. I wasn't aware that there are normal and dev branch, now I don't remember which I was trying from your Gitlab. I was following by link on your page, I think. And the empty output was the same as in uouu's fork last commit.
@bacardi55: I also saw this practice of deleting old tweets and toots. Of course everybody could do whatever want, but for me its has two flaws:
1. Posts who I try to follow have often some informations, which I fav/boost - if everybody would delete content I should before any response quote full for my archive purpose.
2. I like long archives, my Polish blog has archives from 2004. Maybe most of the content is useless, but whole set is more authentic. It shows some evolution of myself, and a real person (event like, it's only online avatar with some self-moderation).
@frrobert: Thanks, I am running a version from uoou's Gitlab and I had must revert from 80316adc to a36052c5 because the last give an empty output. The same is on your last commit. I think that I have all needed commands, and it must be some version mismatch. I am working on 20.04 LTS distribution, so I could have some older version of commands. I will investigate this later.
BTW Thanks for such great utility, it's very inspiring to have so many functionalities in so few source lines.
@bacardi55, @reaton: At work I develop system for Windows user, and some tools are only Windows version. Backend is *unix. Some developers try to use Linux on workstations, it isn't forbidden, but sometimes need an effort to do so. As I said, Windows 10 and Office 365 for corporate user is the best Windows I have been working for years. So it isn't so bad. ;-)
@reaton: Microsoft today is making much work to include some Linux tools and workflows. So you wouldn't be a hostile in Windows world. My firsts warm-up question on recruitment interview is always about Linux and every person who works on it as everyday user has extra point. ;-)
Yesterday it was third month anniversary of my tinylog.
@reaton: It's funny, because I was using at home only Linux for about 15 years. I was working on Windows at work for the same time. I am using MacOS for about 5 years. I like Linux, and my home workflow is great (some time ago I was doing much DSLR raw editing on it). I was disappointed also, when I couldn't resolve issues with my WiFi on last kernel update. I praise Windows 10 and full Office 365 license at work, for corporate user this solution is fine. But of course we all know the biggest issues on the Windows side (Git, Docker, package managers, console - which Microsoft try to improve). I also like MacOS for their seamless integration of devices. And I laugh at them about their "amazingness".
And ... I realised that I hate only one thing. Sometimes I too old for changes. And I don't like if my tools and workflows (in every of above OS) are changing. ;-)
2021-06-11 12:30 — thoughts on solderpunk's mercury protocol
I've been thinking about Gemini protocol future (is it just a temporary trend?), and try to analyse opposite side posts about it. There were often links to Mercury protocol, which don't have mandatory TLS. It's interesting summary about it.
@bacardi55: Thanks for adding my tinylog in the Known-tinylogs.md list. :-)
P.S.
And for v0.3.1.
@bacardi55 - gtl testing report no. 2:
@adele, @frrobert: I have some problem with last versions of lace. Itshows me blank output. It's interesting because fast look at changes don't give any answer, there are nothing big and suspicious.
Today not too much time for Gemini, I put only a short post and subscribe to new tinylog mentioned by @bacardi55.
@deerbard I'm using ":r! date" in vim for date, with timezone as you can see above. You can see format settings in command line by "locale date_fmt", my is "%a %d %b %Y %r %Z". You can see "man date" that "%Z - alphabetic time zone abbreviation".
The work on Tinylog RFC begins.
Gmidiff v1.0-beta was released.
Now it's ready for backlinks detection, it's like Hubble Telescope. The only question is who will want to backlink to my capsule. :-D
@bacardi55, @adele: I will be happy to give you an opinion on draft.
From my side, I would try to make something light. Like our author, avatar, license information. Rather a good practise than an obligatory thing. I spotted some tinylogs with for eg. simplified date format. It's not OK for Gtl, Lace script etc., but it's good for people, who can be less technical than we.
Today I figured out, for the next time, how irritating for me is Mastodon. More I get into it, and more people I follow, it's harder to manage all these information. I tried several clients, and there are no good solutions for threading and browsing through some topic. I try to look at #gemini hashtag. Sometimes I look at the same posts (boosted, or displayed second time), sometimes I give up and don't look at it for some time (so I lost some posts). The reason of characters limit in Mastodon must be for it, that it is designed for quick reactions, without any information value. Then we don't need advanced organizing features in clients. And, as many people do, we can delete statuses older than eg. three months. One of reason for not quitting is that I found there information about Geminispace. So without Mastodon, I wouldn't be here.
I was thinking about tinylogs and a better way for tracing to whom subscribed people are responding. It's easier than I thought. We should use links, so backlinks will show our connections also for tinylogs. How it should be done?
@bacardi55 - gtl testing report no. 1:
Terminal Programs I Like by Kelbot
Creator of smoll.pub community - m15o.
@deerbard: There are two solutions: search engine, and checking for mentioned @name and search engines and checking backlinks. This idea has some limitations - it's harder to response. But maybe will make stronger relationships, as somebody find a response. In Mastodon there is some information flood.
Today I made many steps in my Health app, but there wasn't any progress on my Gemini projects. Low energy week affected me. ;-)
@bacardi55: I have LTS distribution so my go version is only 1.13.8. So you can put some binaries, I will test it. Local git instance is ok for me, I'm using GitHub because I'm lazy. ;-)
Today is too late so I plan for tomorrow investigate a GitUI installation process (as @bacardi55 mentioned)
@adele: I'm using ProtonMail, because I didn't find any better solution. I've been testing Tutanota and situation there is the same for me (immature client, and no SMTP access).
@bacardi55: Is your gtl is ready for first users? Is there any public repo?
Third day in a row of development. My script has 76 sloc! :-) And two issues. :-(
A few lines of my gmidiff script were added. It's 40 sloc! ;-)
@adele I'm also using a ProtonMail but after a while I'm also disappointed. As you wrote, there are no way for easy SMTP. Their mail client isn't mature enough (for example I had problem with sending a plain text only mails). And what is the most disappointing for me - their solution isn't promote PGP/GPG, and security is seamless only in communication between ProtonMail users. Communication outside ProtonMail is complicated as in every average mail client. So for what we use ProtonMail? I don't believe in their marketing about Switzerland as symbol of security.
732 POC of getting gemini page in Bash. Inspired by Lace. Next time I will add hashes comparison.
@bacardi55 Your marketing is welcomed here, and new version of your software is awaited. :-)
Mentioned earlier Comitium backlinks experiment have ended and failed. Comitium and geminispace.info seem to noticed changed page every time it is loaded.
It's interesting what will bring first release of @bacardi55 tinylog's client. There is some teaser on author's tinylog. First tinylog marketing on Geminispace, ever. :-)
I forced myself and have tidied all gemlogs signatures, and licensing. The same for tinylog. I added also avatar and author information like @adele. Uff...
@adele - I must repost from Mastodon. It's easier to find information on a tinylog, than on Mastodon feed. Section after # and before ## in #Lace is ignored. This is [author's post about Lace]:
[...] You can have whatever you want at the top - a level 1 heading and an introductory paragraph or whatever, that's all fine. [...]
@bacardi55 - I am editing my tinylog *by the power of Grayskull*... ekhem, vim. ;-) It's easy:
vim
:r date (arrow up key, get command from history without typing)
i
##
By the power of Grayskull
ESC
:wqa
Any script will be slower, and less enjoyable, than my super vim power.
Oyster was approved as part of Unicode 12.0 in 2019 and added to Emoji 12.0 in 2019.
You must update emojis. ;-)
Seriously maybe my emoji isn't as standard as I think.
Today's tmux heaven - C-a z is for zooming pane to full window. Tmux is so polished that it will display "Z" (as zoom) in window list bar.
@deerbard I think that showing emojis/favicons in Lace depends on terminal app and terminal settings like xterm-color.
It's interesting because I thought about Tinylog as microblog. But it's true, that it could be treated as social stream as @adele, @bacardi55 have written.
Jonathan Blow's "Preventing the Collapse of Civilization"
Envied Przemek the favicon. So I set my own - 🦪. In Polish my nick "Szczeżuja" means "duck mussel". But there are no duck mussel emoji, so I must choose oyster. Oyster is foreign cousin cousin of duck mussel! ;-) My favicon is now visible in Lace!
