A subspace for the AuraGem capsule and all of its services.
AuraGem Chat — I have created a live chat in Gemini. This is obviously not the first time this has been done, but it was a fun project! It does save a history, but only for a day. After 24 hours, the whole history is cleared. [gemini link]

AuraGem's Radio Stations will now have a 12.5 second announcer every 30 minutes (may make this less frequent in the future). [gemini link]

AuraGem Public Radio Updates — I have updated the code for AuraGem Public Radio so that there's less repeats for most genres (some genres like World have less songs atm, so they will have repeats more often). The radio keeps track of which songs have already played up to the max number of songs for that genre. Then, when it reaches max, it will pop from the front of a queue about 1/4th of the songs on the list. Poping off a...

I've added a new station to my public radio called "Old Time Radio". It features old public domain music from 78rpm records as well as radio dramatizations of a few books, and about 12 episodes of the radio shows called "The Adventures of Philip Marlow" that play at specific times, with a new episode twice a week. I plan to add more radio shows and music later. All of the content...

I've written some computer history facts that I've personally found interesting on my nex site here: nex://auragem.letz.dev/ (You should now be able to use Lagrange's latest version to view Nex sites).

AuraGem Devlog Newsletter — I now have an AuraGem Devlog newsletter on my misfin server! You can subscribe to the newsletter by sending a message with the subject "Subscribe" to devlog@auragem.letz.dev with misfin. If your misfin client doesn't prompt you for message subjects, send your message with "# Subscribe", which is how you specify a message subject in gemmail.

AuraGem Music Public Radio Stations — AuraGem Music's Public Radio now has multiple stations! There are 4 different stations: Diverse, Mainstream, Classical, and Non-mainstream. Diverse will play all of the genres at specific time slots. Mainstream will play mainstream genres, like Pop, Rock, Acoustic, Cinematic, and World. Classical will play Classical as well as Classical-adjacent genres like Jazz,...

Gemini Audio Streaming Workarounds — I'm considering a workaround for mobile devices that have no way to stream audio via gemini. I might go the Gemini to HTTP proxy route, or just offer the public radio stream via HTTP directly. I wanted to stick with AuraGem being Smallnet-protocols-only, but until there are more clients that support audio streams, I will have to find some workaround that works. Unfortunately, iOS (and I believe Android) require you to pay at least a one-time fee to submit...

AuraGem Music Bugfix — The bandwidth throttling of music files was on a global basis by accident, which meant that it was throttling bandwidth for the sum of the bandwidth of all connections. Now bandwidth throttling happens per connection, which means there can be concurrent connections of 320 kbps streams running. Tl;dr: Music files should no longer pause when multiple people are streaming at the same time. So if you experienced pauses while streaming before, give AuraGem Music another try -...

AuraGem Music Streams — I've been working on something for AuraGem Music for a while, and it's very exciting. So, initially AuraGem Music would just serve you the mp3 files that are in your library. Unfortunately this meant you had to manually click on each song you wanted to play. But now it has three new functions: 1. You can stream a full album in one stream. AuraGem Music will strip the ID3v2 tags (I'm working on getting it to strip *all* tags, including LAME Xing headers). No need to...

— Configure Default Search Engine in Lagrange
Updates and Mistakes — AuraGem Updates: 1. So... apparently the openssl command overwrites files without notifying the user. I was quickly pressing the up arrow to run previous commands and accidentally ran the command to regenerate the certs. And openssl just wrote over the existing files. So AuraGem has a new cert again. Lol. *Sigh* 2. Anyways, I was rebuilding and restarting the server to add...

PageRank — Is there any search engine in the Gemini space that implements the Page Rank algorithm as in Brin, Page, "The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine" (1998), or something similar? The Gemini space appears not to contain manipulated content ("SEO"), so PR could work pretty well.

AuraGem Has a New Certificate — AuraGem now has a new certificate. When you re-visit the capsule, you will have to accept this new cert, unless it's your first time at the capsule.

Cert Problems with Amfora and AuraGem — Apparently Amfora verifies certs differently than other clients, so it isn't working for AuraGem. It might have to do with CN vs. the subjectAltName thing in the certificate, but I'm not quite sure. I expect clients to look at *both*, because I use CN for the main address and subjectAltName for alternative domains (hence the "Alt"), but maybe that assumption was wrong, idk. If anyone knows anything about this and how I can fix it, that would be...

AuraGem Music Relaunch — I'm relaunching AuraGem Music! AuraGem Music was a project I originally announced on 2022-07-15 that allowed people to upload their private collections of music with Titan and stream their private collection with Gemini. Unfortunately, the service was slow at that time, for various reasons, but this situation has been improved; although, it's still not perfect since the AuraGem...
