Ok, I've done lots of work on my search engine, including improving the ranking system and it's performance. Searches should be quite fast now. The next step is to improve the keyword extraction, and continue crawling more pages. It has currently indexed 13189 pages. You can try it out now here: gemini://pon.ix.tc/searchengine/

Currently running my crawler. It's quite slow right now, but it works. If anyone has problems with it hammering your server (the IP of the crawler is 67.60.37.132), do tell me so I can figure something out.

So, I just found out that geminispace.info/GUS blocks a *bunch* of stuff for various reasons, some technical, and some seemingly not. It's also just poorly designed. I'll be making my own search engine for Gemini soon. https://src.clttr.info/rwa/geminispace.info/src/branch/master/gus/excludes.py#L76

Just added a bunch more comic issues to my Star Wars Database, including all issues of Star Wars (2015), Darth Vader (2015), Kanan (2015), and The High Republic (2021), as well as all one-shots. More will be added continually until it is complete. gemini://pon.ix.tc/starwars2/

@skyjake I have another idea for lagrange 😁 It'd be cool to have a simple table interface for csv files. Astrobotany uses them for the leaderboards, and I'm considering using them for a database project... Although, there isn't hyperlinking in them. I wonder if a new document format that combines hyperlinking and CSV would be interesting....

Since I have been reading all of the Marvel Star Wars Canon Comics, I compiled a list of all the series'. I have made this available in case it could help anyone else out. gemini://pon.ix.tc/~krixano/StarWarsComics.gmi

@skyjake So, I have a cool idea for lagrange. On my music service, I have this URL where every refresh, it sends a random song from your library. It'd be cool if lagrange had a auto-reload setting where it auto-reloads when the song is finished playing (if the page is of an audio-file).

For server owners, I recommend reading this article to learn how Linux's disk caching works and how the swappiness value can help improve it by swapping out more to free up memory for disk caching. https://www.linuxatemyram.com/play.html

The only important thing left to do for my music uploading service is to support uploading via Titan. Otherwise, it's basically done! :D
💬 1 Reply · 0 Thumbs · 2 years ago
I am currently working on a new project that will be done hopefully soon! It will be a music upload service. You can upload your own music files with Titan and listen to your personal music collection with Gemini.
💬 2 Replies · 2 Thumbs · 2 years ago
This Titan protocol (gemini://transjovian.org/titan) looks pretty cool. It's the flip-side to Gemini that allows for upload only. I might look into implementing some things with it. It'd be useful to have more clients supporting it though, like lagrange perhaps :D ( @skyjake )

Just read this book review on an introductory C programming book (gemini://hexdsl.co.uk/book_club/20210428-cprogrammingineasysteps.gmi). I just found it funny that he was expecting a beginner book on C to teach how to draw windows on Linux, lmao. Let's just say there's a *reason* literally nobody does this themselves anymore and instead uses SDL or glfw, etc. :D

History shows that Progress doesn't exist. You want to know what the most common thing to do is? Say that the previous movement sucks to justify your own movement. Then that movement becomes dominant, and then the next generation says that movement sucks and starts their own movement, oftentimes going the complete opposite direction. Imo, There is no empirical evidence to show that Progress exists.
