I found it a little odd that the Awesome Gemini list on GitHub didn't seem to exist at all in Geminispace, so I spent way more time than I expected to using wget, sed, and perl to fetch the Awesome List dynamically and convert it to gemtext. It syncs every time I build my capsule: gemini://gemi.dev/awesome.gmi

This is cool. A history of the original Project Gemini, as written by NASA in 1977. Its available as a whole book, but because its a US govt work, its in the public domain: https://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/SP-4203/toc.htm

there is an interesting and serious security vulnerability in OpenSSL that may impact Gemini servers. basically a Malformed certificate can cause a crash to a program using OpenSSL to read it. Gemini uses client side certificates, so I can create a malformed client side and connect to random Gemini capsides and send it as part of the TLS handshake. this could crash the Gemini server. to be clear I think TLS in Gemini is A Good Thing (tm). this is the biggest issue in 6 years which shows how far OpenSSL has come. but it does show how the security of a system is a union of the security of its parts https://www.openssl.org/blog/blog/2022/11/01/email-address-overflows/

OK, this is just unfair. While building and testing Where In the World, I kept getting stupid hard puzzles like Diego Garcia, Bouvet Island, Palau, or Central African Republic. But once it's live for everyone, it's serviing up these easy, fairly distinctive countries. WTF random algorithm I created? Why do you hate me so?! 😂 Give us something weird like a French Island near Antarctica!
