I wonder if anyone uses the Mastogem proxy to read on Mastodon. Does this make sense at all, what advantages and disadvantages do you see in it? Would interest me times. Have a nice weekend together!
Looking through old backups from the last 10 years, I clearly come to the conclusion that I've stayed pretty true to my interests. I'm going to pull out some old PDFs and look at them again. Feels good.
Is there actually access to a bookstore catalog in any form via gemini? That one can query available books? I have seen a few REST API , eg: www.booklooker.de or also via different book search engine via Wikipedia. Unfortunately, I'm not quite clear from a technical point of view how to implement something like this. Ideas?
Is there anyone who does archery? I tried it a few times about 2 years ago, but stopped due to lack of time. I really like archery, especially traditional / intuitive archery. There is an outdoor archery venue where fire bowls are set up in the evening so you can still shoot at dusk. Looking foreward to buy my one bow. Any recommendations to start with?
Rarely seen such a thing: in the neighborhood were planted new trees (already a good 2 meters high), on a green strip. Today I see that all of them, a dozen or so, have been knocked down or broken off completely. Simply blind vandalism. :(
You never stop learning: i looked at the old industrial complex around the corner, where all kinds of studios and workshops etc. are now inside. the other day i noticed two large olive-colored metal bodies that were stored there. To me they looked like torpedoes or something. A man explained to me now he used these things for his houseboat or raft. They were drop tanks from airplanes. Before that, he used empty gasoline drums for the raft. These are now no longer allowed and he is switching to the drop tanks. He has also found a online seller who specializes in such. I'd love to see the results....
This made my day: a poster for a small exhibition about science fiction in the German Democratic Republic, GDR. In a library very close to our apartment. Can't wait to see what's on display. Took out my old Stanislav Lem (he comes from Poland) books and leafed through them. Should definitely read more books again.
Go fishing with the kids. The last time I went fishing I was 8. Now my oldest son is 8. I am curious if he will like it. And if I still know a little bit about fishing....
I'm still excited about the Gemini community. I like the philosophy behind it, and it gives good ideas on topics I like, especially net activism, technology, and privacy. However, for topics like the history of medicine (MedHist) or even the history of science (Nathist), I'm still looking. Can anyone make any recommendations? Happy to contact as well!
I've been thinking lately about telling friends about Gemini. Some have tried it, but often felt there is not enough content. I felt the same way, but that was probably because I didn't find the capsules that interested me. Have you had any experience with Gemini's recommendation? I would be very interested to know. LG
Quick question: what is the best workflow to parse pdf in gemtext and set up a small archive? Thanks a lot
Could buy a used Nintendo Switch. I have games for the kids, but I'm still looking for something for me. Does anyone have a recommendation? I was thinking "The Stanley Parable" last ....
Help needed! How can I comment and follow someone here? Posting works fine. I am using Lagrange. Thanks in advance.
I'm on a trip, but still planning new projects. Have 1 m³ space in the basement and not far a garden with a bit of space also not used. I would like to use both for a project. I thought of mushroom growing ad hoc. Do you have good ideas?
Gemini Self-Hosting - Tips wanted. Looking for a detailed (!) tutorial on self-hosting a Gemini server on a Raspberry Pi and using a dynamic IP. Thanx
Gemini Hosting - Tips wanted. I'm looking for a Gemini host that only serves Gemini and possibly Gopher, but does not automatically provide the account / content via WWW. Glad about any advice!
