misfin update: it's now possible from the frontend to block misfin accounts by address or certificate fingerprint. Doesn't seem necessary right now but there was nothing preventing spamming, except the rate limiting ...

Playing OSE's The Hole in the Oak with Fantasy Grounds — Last night the DM of my regular Saturday Night D&D game wasn't available, so I ran another session of The Hole in the Oak for the other players in that group, minus two who weren't available, as I have been doing occasionally when the regular DM isn't available, or between games which that DM is running. Apparently, the last time I ran this game was in 2022… The regular DM is very consistent at running, generally only not available when...
Am I missing something here? I tried to reply to [gemini link] post it inform them, its down again. However, I don't see a "Add comment" or anything else like that to reply.
It appears my capsule [gemini link] went down at some point yesterday evening, and I only discovered it this morning. The capsule is now back online. I apologize for any inconvenience!
chromatika — this is the source of my pascal app. i am writing it by using delphi community edition, because it is able to build same source for android and ios, also for windows and macos. the app has 4 hald cluts as resource files. those are taken from real film stocks. to apply hald clut i had to implement the algorithm, and only hald clut implementation took one week. at some point i was desperate, thought i cannot do it. so the 'presets' are chrome, warm, cold, landscape. those are...

Quest progress available — Finally, we have marking of completed quests. And uncompleted quests too! [preformatted] And if you've always wanted to delete your account, but were shy to ask, now you can do it! Delete account, i mean. There is menu item in "Options" page. But beware of the artful Lagrange, which remembers the association of the certificate with the authorization page. I recommend open the pages linked to the certificate in separate tabs, and unpin the certificate after deleting...

Mala Pronunciación — He estado leyendo el New York Times en español durante dos horas! Entiendo mucho, pero... Intenté leer un artículo sobre Donald Trump en voz alta en Google Translate. La traduccion fue: Better butter, Donald Trump call your dispatcher in the Torre Trump era on the special infinity. Kiss anime horror. La segunda vez fue mejor. Necesito trabajar en mi pronunciación.

Enshitification — How does it happen? How does a community of generally well-mannered people become a zoo full of vandals that requires hardcore policing, with automatic weapons? You could blame criminals and build higher walls and get bigger guns. But I think it is exactly the cause of enshitification. People inherently want to be a part of their community. We are social animals. And if we are rejected and have no hope, we apply whatever skills we have to express our frustration at damaging...

New forum — Hello, I have launched another forum for Gemini/Titan at [gemini link] I would welcome feedback and suggestions from people here, especially in regard to display and formatting. My inspiration is a vbulletin-esque Web forum, so hopefully it is interesting in its difference from this board. It is a work in progress, so there are several features I've not yet added, like PMs and permissions for moderators (separate from normal users or administrators). I hope its basic...

Tried it, love it — I hope you don't mind a little feedback, based on my first round. It took me a few rolls to realize I don't get it and look for instructions. If you keep live data of past games, you could provide instructions for new players upfront. If you don't, you can detect a stupid first move and show instructions... It shouldnt be hard to show the dice I am holding, unless you think keeping notes is a part of the game. Finally, at the end of a round, you could show how the score...

I finally discovered Single Window mode for Lazarus and I like it quite a bit more.

Trying Rocket Languages, FluentU and LingoPie — Maybe I am wrong, but my approach to leaning Spanish is to avoid translation when possible, but instead try to internalize the language -- I want to feel rather than know. I think it's the key to fluency. And so, in addition to banging out DuoLingo exercises (which are surprisingly good at making their way deep into my brain), I decided to try out a few more apps, in order to get good enough to watch TV. Rocket Spanish They offer a free trial...

I had this dream the other night where, in the next world war, trillions of microplastic beads infused with dioxin are dropped by a fleet of large aircrafts. I woke up absolutely terrified.

Geolocation — I got curious on which continents users of bbs.geminispace.org are located so I wounder if the status page could show that?

Has anyone read Margaret Murray? — I read her book *The Witch Cult in Western Europe* a few years ago, and felt enchanted. I am not a neopagan myself, but given her influence on your community, I was curious what you thought of her. (Of course, I know she is not taken seriously by academics, but I don't think there's much to say on that.)

Showing my script "gemlogssh" in action with an old-school video — I've just published the video in my Mastodon account. The script helps me to manage posts in my Gemini capsule, served with Agate, trough SSH. For the show, I used OBS to screecast a Cool Retro Term screen over an image of an Amstrad PC W512 monitor.
