How is it that station has managed to recapture the early social media era feeling of, "I don't know who this stranger I'm talking to is, and it feels strange in a good way to say something to them." I love it!
if I end up acquiring an IBM 6400 line printer (dot matrix at 1000 lines a minute) would anyone be interested in a print service? like, for a small fee ($5 or so), print anything you want on that famous green and white striped paper. I'm having ideas tonight!!
Already have the printers and punches up and running on my VM/CMS emulation. Waaaaay farther than I've ever gotten with MVS already.
Decided to edit the config file for VM/370 six pack; I now (symbolically) run an IBM 370/168 with eight 3420 tape drives and six 3350 DASD disk drives... and two printers. cuz why not :D
Decided to get back into mainframing again; This time I set up Hercules and VM/370 CMS on my very old and unused Raspberry Pi 2. Runs well tbh. and I'm really warming up to CMS already; feels more natural than MVS. Screen vs Interactive interface might've been the pain point with me honestly. We'll see!
Back from my camping trip! thank you so much @Zero and @prk for watering my astrobotany plant!
Could someone take care of watering my plant please? I'll be camping with my partner til Sunday, don't know what the cell reception is going to be like. //astrobotany.mozz.us/public/21b34ff9a3664cd284aa80869613ace9
if you're a furry (and you're already cool cuz you use Gemini!) you might really appreciate this blast of a site: https://asswolf.com/
does anyone know of a capsule that would stream lofi music? can't seem to find it.
Is there already an email-like gemini-only message service? if not, is there any interest for one? Would love to work on something like that, and try using LDPL as a backend processing language. Sounds fun tbh!
This might be a very frequently asked question; But my cert is expiring here in a few months. is there any way I could renew / extend it without losing the accounts this identity is tied to? x.x
Hello from Lagrange on Android! Thanks for the recommendations!!
What's the best Gemini browser for Android? currently using deedum.
On digital (computer) currencies: What if the notion of a Blockchain was dropped? What if, instead, the currency emerged from nothing but archaic bureaucracy? Records, reports, and old fashioned data processing. For fun...
Will be working on a digital currency project that uses obscure hardware, to put the fun back into computer money. won't be cryptocurrency or a payment processor. let me know if anyone's interested.
I have a fully functioning Macintosh Performa 640CD. Any ideas on how to get it connected to the smolnet? Thinking modem + voip + free/cheap dialup?
Selling my Kaypro II on eBay to help fund my move to Oklahoma! Check it out: https://www.ebay.com/itm/275587791529
Could anyone provide links to how to implement authentication logic on Gemini pages? Like how one authenticates with their self-signed cert on station or Astrobotany?
Had an amazing time at Midwest Furfest. spent nearly the whole con in my suite with someone who quickly became my world. told him tonight I fell in love with him. and he said he thinks he feels the same way. Couldn't be happier 💜🧡
Hello out there, fedilab furs!
So, what's the buzz in gSpace? Are there any new and unique capsules out there?
Are there any furries out there? Would love to get to merpin' with ya!
Would mastodon be considered part of the smolnet? If not, what besides twtxt?
Quite proud of my little plant on Astrobotany. gemini://astrobotany.mozz.us/public/21b34ff9a3664cd284aa80869613ace9
So, like, the web... it's broken, right? xD
Hmm... peer to peer text only mastodon? or twtxt?
What other text only internet protocols exist? Currently know of Gopher, Gemini, Netamict, and Line Mode Browser if that sounds! What else is out there?
What's your favorite android Gemini browser? Currently using Deedum!
Been into Bitcoin since 2011. It, and crypto, has changed too much to be fun anymore. Makes me want to build a smolnet (and probably centralized) digital money system. Where the numbers themselves are the money. Anyone want to help?
Been learning Standard ML lately. Started as a stepping stone to Haskell, but... I've grown kind of fond of it. Helps me think functionally tbh!
Just out of curiosity, is there anything like station on gopher?
My daily Gemini routine has been to log into astrobotany, water my plant, and hop on over to station to see what's been said. Check out astrobotany here; it's really neat! gemini://astrobotany.mozz.us/app
Always love logging on to station. Usually find something cool and unique. Check the feed for mention of video game cartridges made from paper! cool stuff!
Never sell us anything, Gemini. The work was free. Keep it so.
Got my paws on a UDS 202T leased line modem today. Any fun ideas on what to do with it? and anyone have any manuals on how to set the baud rate? XD
Followup idea to my last log; Do you think Gemini served via SMS is usable?
Has anyone used Gemini / Spartan over a 56K dialup connection? If so, what's your experience been like? if not... who wants to help me set up a Gemini dialup ISP :v
Finally figured out how to get a cert into Deedum on Android, from Android. So hey, everyone! how goes it?
