Created a dictionary search. let me know if you spot any issues... I just got it working tonight.

my AVS from retrousb came in!

anyone have a good listing of Unicode icons I can use on Gemini that doesn't require sifting through 300 pages of characters?
I created a HOWTO on making a capsule. I still have some sections to write, but the server section is done. If you have suggestions or spot some errors let me know.

my only sense of people joining Gemini is the docking bay at the bottom of Station. it's nice to see.
If you popped over to #BBS lately you may have seen that I rebranded my Antenna clone to be Deep Space Network (DSN) Antenna, with the intent of hosting non-technical gemlogs / transmissions. Feedback welcomed.

With the official Antenna being down, I made a clone on my capsule. Feel free to use and let me know if there's any issues:

Finished season 1 of Silo on Apple. pretty happy with how it went. some deviations from the book series, but minor and didn't detract.
still recommend.

great day today! sitting outside waiting on some food with some good oldies playing.
Aliens
got all the spellbinding words! score.
capsule is back up
learned the hard way the difference between user and system services in systemd. blindly following the instructions for gmcapule had me install as a user and when I logged out it stopped. Fixed by putting in /etc/systemd/system/ like I should have.
not that I get much traffic (or post that much) but my capsule is down. not sure when I'll actually have time to fix it but it's on my list.
interesting pangram on spellbinding today. didn't think it would take.
I seem to water digital plants better than real ones.
impressed with the first episode of Silo on Apple. good to see the books come to life with some good visuals.
@martin is there a way (or a plan) to be able to see a listing of your own comments? maybe I just missed it?
I'm looking forward to watching Silo on Apple. I read the trilogy some years ago and loved it.
for those wondering what sequel is, like I was: Gemini://sequel.space/
I had an idea for a Gemini Contributor awards program. just popped into my head. not sure how it would work or the time investment but I think it would be a neat idea. be good to get @solderpunk take on it too
for the new folks, here are a few links to check out

I find it interesting how many astrobotany plants are alive without their owners. there's quite a few it seems.
just discovered that Unitarian Universalist religion exists

I'm considering switching servers on my capsule so I can create a script to post to my tinylog as easily as I do here. I'm using a static server currently.
Anyone know of an epub to gpub converter? I found one but it's written in nim and I don't know what I'm doing with that lang.
any tinylogs out there that are worth subscribing to that aren't on station or bacardi55s list?
I subscribe to these and aggregate them on my capsule with #gtl for easy reading.
I think a lyric database for Gemini would be great. went searching on the web for my recent gemlog and was appalled by the amount of garbage hitting my screen for just *text*. unfortunately I don't have the time or expertise to do something like this.
finally got Writefreely running on my VPS. I like the simplicity, that it federates, AND doubles as a gopher hole.
I'm trying to remember something I read about. it was like an alternative to the about me page and would always be located at my site.tld/<here> but I can't think of it. was it something along the lines of a .plan file? should've bookmarked it. I remember wanting to add to my site
Does anyone know how I can log agate accesses and errors to a file? I'm running as a systemd service and know it has something to do with setting the environment variable but that's about it.
had to stop playing spellbinding on here for a while because it was all I thought about all day. surprisingly addicting game for the geminiverse
I was only a professional programmer for a very short period bit I found it draining. I often hear about and read about burnout among programmers, so I'm wondering how those folks that love it avoid such mental overload?
I haven't checked on crypto in a while but boy is there a huge fire sale going on. I do believe this had to happen at some point. it won't die though, and as others said, governments will swoop in and save the day with their regulations. some will welcome it. I've read an article saying as such.
What Spartan server(s) are folks using, and are they secure and reliable?
are there mirrors of solderpunk's gemlog? im trying to figure out a few things with molly brown and he mentioned some configuations in his gemlog.
