I totally got the Miata, it’s exactly as awesome as I thought it would be. Manual swapped NA model with racing coilovers. There are a few things that need worked on, namely
Plug in popup button (they’re stuck open), replace headlight bulb, get AC belt, and most importantly muffler.
Also an alignment.
All that being said, it’s fully owned by me and it’s such a good car to work on.
Drives like a dream, only 20k miles on the engine.

15MAY24 annual ::Ride of Silence:: Wed. May 15th, 7:00 PM Worldwide Cyclists will take to the roads in a silent procession to honor cyclists who have been killed or injured while cycling on public roadways. Although cyclists have a legal right to share the road with motorists, the motoring public often isn't aware of these rights, and sometimes not aware of the cyclists themselves.

Ido and Conlang: I'm wondering if anyone has any Ido connections. I'm starting back into auxlanguages and after doing a basic in Esperanto many years ago I'm returning to Ido for it's improvments over Esperanto. Particularly as I want to upgrade my BBS to an Auxlang theme and Esperanto's 100+ year old problem with special characters was managed by Ido just not using them! Any thoughts?

Just found my way over from The Station via a search on Meshtastic.... New to Gemini and typically hanging out on BBS. It's really nice to find this sort of space has opened up, following in the path of what was it feels right. I've seen a lot of math talk here at the top of the feed. I think Stand Up Maths' is the suscribed maths channel on my feed. I'm more of a practical maths person working in land survey, civil enginnering and CAD but not at all lost to the beauty mathamatics.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I plan on implementing identity updating as soon as I'm able! It's been suggested a few times, and is necessary for the longevity of the capsule. I’ve been… busy the last few months but I finally have enough time to work on fun projects again. I’ve also been itching to rewrite the CGI scripts for this capsule (making a library and docs to use it). It does cool things like abstract forms and auth to ifs and one liners. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while, but I’m not making any promises; my schedule may fill up again. Committed to getting identity updating done asap though!

I usually use web resources, a lot of the time I watch stuff from numberphile, 3blue1brown, and other similar YouTubers! They focus more on the intuition of math, which then leads me to looking up more things about those topics!
If you ever want tips on specific math subjects I'm always happy to help!

Hehe, I'm the opposite of you. I started to use Slackware recently, only ever booting Windows 10 when I need access to some very specific software. My computer cannot tolerate any compatible Windows version properly and it's driving me insane that every second boot starts with a BSOD. Maintaining Slackware is less painful to me AND my aging computer but I may just be a hobbiyst that doesn't maintain a server or VM's.

I've decided to turn it into a kind of general document storage. I want to get a terminal epub reader set up, get a small oled (or even better, eink) display to hook it up to.
The reader I want to use (bk) is written in rust, and the RISCV MUSL platform isn't amazingly fully supported (the RISCV GNU rust compiler is just a download away). I spent way too much time yesterday trying to get it working, but once I do I'll have a low memory low profile compiler on the system.
I'll keep progress updated here! Probably in this thread.

I got a small RiscV computer (a Milk V Duo). It's running a very minimal Linux installation, and I can communicate with it via wired SSH.
It's pretty cool, and I'm working on a small document editing application.
It's crazy how small a form factor it has.
I'm not really sure what else to do with it though, because I can't connect it to the internet at the moment.

I got my submission for ROOPHLOCH in on time! The client wasn't mentioned on the main post but I'm there along with 15 others who participated in the list of posts!
I also said in my ROOPHLOCH post that I'd release the source for the client!
It's really messy, and was hacked together in about a week, so don't expect a beautiful elegant codebase or anything, it's a giant main.c (err... sockets.c, it was based off the devkitpro sockets example for TLS connections)
There's also tons of bugs and only one page of history (that's cached at least!)
Also you can quit at any time by pressing START.
Anyways, enjoy!

Less than a minute ago I pushed the final commit absolutely /needed/ to let my 3DS client do what it needs to for ROOPHLOCH!
I'm really excited to write my little blog post with it lol. I'm going to some time this week.
The weather isn't going to be great the next few days sadly, but hey. Gives me more time to work on making the client look better and function better too lol. Kind of held together with sticks and glue, but the structs and general execution flow are really solid.
I'll unprivate the repo after cleaning it up!
After making the UI look a little better I'll send some screenshots Sunday!

It isn't at the moment, but it is source controlled in a private repo! I'm gonna take a look at that bug real quick and see I can figure that out.
That being said, most of the capsule was built off of a python library a wrote in conjunction with the capsule. It helps abstract gemini responses, session management, and form page creation.
After I finish my 3DS client (nearly done with an MVP for ROOPHLOCH)
I'm going to clean those libraries up, write some docs, and open source that for sure! It really makes CGI capsule creation a lot easier.
At a certain point I probably will open source hidden.nexus. At least I would like to!

I could be wrong but i think there's an issue with the redirection after you write a reply to a post, it seems to redirect you to gemini://hidden.nexus/feed%postid when it should really redirect you to gemini://hidden.nexus/feed ?

I also got the basics for interactive UI up so I can control things. Tomorrow I'll work on that UI more, as well as actual gemtext rendering!
Keeping the top screen for showing gemtext, bottom for UI and control. Really excited to show you all when I get it looking a little nicer!

Something longer form that I keep going to is

Really good story on the development of the Macintosh, from the people who made it. (Mirrored obviously)
Gemini lends itself really well to reading something long but well organized like this.

What I was thinking is that when there are more users, or there are enough posts to justify this, that I'll make it so you see posts/likes from people you follow! That'll make it look a little less cluttered. (If you follow no one or enable a setting it'll just show everything still)
Then each post kind of is a thread for replies!
Or something like that. Questions or comments abt that?

There are a few places I frequent due to the variety they provide. Flounder.online is one such capsule host and microblog, which provides a feed of recent additions from ppl's capsules. Gemini chat also seems interesting, in that it's a sort of chat wall people can write messages to at any time. One of the other capsules that's a good visit for music is higeki.jp/fanden/ which seems to be a music project that incorporates synth sounds and experimental noises.

A question to anyone here,
Do you have any specific niche places in gemspace you find cool for one reason or another?
I'm exploring more, and finding lots of cool things. The crawler has helped a little bit with that, but most of it is just exploring and reading what people have to say.
Anything cool at all! Just something kind of niche in your opinion.

That's correct!
The gemtext spec says that quotes are one to a line, but a lot of times quoting someone would take more
So Lagrange and a lot of other clients group consecutive quote lines together!

Yeah so indeed hidden.nexus sends a quote instruction for each paragraph, that's fine. But i've noticed that Lagrange for example displays it as one block, maybe it's grouping quotes togeter when there are multiple "single" quotes in a row.

I also notice that when you load the feed, it grabs my profile picture link one time for each time it's on the feed! Little bug report : )

I suggest you check out your settings! If you view your user profile when logged in you can go to your settings which have tons of options for interactivity.
Replies are currently implemented, in fact I've been replying to your posts this whole time pretty much!
If you click on the date of a post to view it (or the interaction in a repost to save on space, they all have the same icon tho). All the interaction buttons will show up no matter what because viewing a post specifically implies intention.
It also renders replies. I'm going to add it so replies will show the parent post too if you're viewing the reply post specifically.
I'll make sure to make settings more easily findable!

That's a really smart idea! I'm actually currently
doing some light adjustments to UI and stuff.
Just made birthdays optional, and the TOS is stated to
be agreed on sign up, with the link to read right there. (open
to feedback about that, I want to make sure that it's
obvious that the TOS is being agreed to, but I also
want a smoother user signup experience)
I'm gonna swap the text over to a quote for post text
and we'll see how it looks right now lol.
I know the default lagrange look for it is okay, but it has two options. Also want to check Elaho and Lagrange on mobile.
Hopefully we hear if it looks good on Gemlaya too :)

one more thing: it's more an observation, really.
below every post made here, there are 3 indicators
that follows as such: like, repost, and replies.
the way I can check or take part in likes, I can see
the amount and place a like. checking reposts is very
straight-forward and immediately viewable on front page.
I try to figure out replies, but there's not really a button
at all to leave one from what I can tell, and instead of
any replies being available it seems like the "reposts"
effectively works as the reply. will there be plans for an
internal comments section per post to incorporate
a reply feature? if the reposts are replace replies,
is the empy feature productive to keep? TYSM

Thank you for your feedback! The key replacement mechanism is a really really good idea.
I'm going to work on that as soon as I finish the setting for preformatted block width, and the image stuff.
None of those are really that hard to implement, but I'v...

hey abraxas, glad to see you're hitting the weekend up :D
if there's one suggestion I have for this pre-format text
switch, i've noticed that if there's one element not being
used through most of this space it's one and one only: quotes.
You can use the > element to follow before every post text body
like so:
> This is an example of a post
> continuing into another line from a break/wrap
> and starting the new line with a quote so as to
> not break the format. Hello, world!
I imagine it might effectively work similarly, w.o
the rendering issues that pre-formatted text might present
across other devices. Sorry for the tl;dr post, cheers!

None of those are really that hard to implement, but I've just been enjoying my weekend after a long work week haha.
With preformatted text, I think it makes sense to manually split it up into smaller lines when rendering (it's still stored exactly as typed). How I've seen it is that a preformatted block can be formatted for the situation, hence the "pre" formatting. All within spec!
But I do understand the criticism and have been debating if a solution is needed. Thank you for posting!

This is a very cool concept for a gemini. I do agree that the formatting should be rectified. Personally I don't like the idea of allowing users to do any formatting outside of the Gemtext spec because that is what renderers are designed around. I cant read half of the posts without changing my orientation which goes against the whole idea of minimal formatted text.
Additionally I would suggest a key replacement mechanism. I usually set my keys to expire at the end of the year so that the renewal process shows I'm still active.

@abraxas hidden.nexus works nicely with gemalaya :=) I think it's a good idea to offer the possibility to write posts that are rendered as preformatted text, but maybe that shouldn't be the default ? On the post page, you could have an option to set the format ? Anyway thanks for hidden.nexus it's pretty cool.

I'm developing a keyboard-driven Gemini browser called Gemalaya (written in QML, oddly enough), it's already quite usable. Check it out at:

Hi Morgan!
Happy to see another user!
Funny to find you post this, I'm actually testing the setting to change the width of the preformatted block line breaks!
Right now it's 55 characters, which is really nice on my desktop lagrange. I also got an email from a mobile user as well, so I'm working on the setting for both of you now! (and everyone else, it's a nice setting to have)
I like to keep preformatted blocks if I can, because it allows people to post nearly any characters they want. If it continues to be a pressing piece of feedback though, even with the blocks I'll convert things over : )
I really appreciate your feedback, thank you!

Hi :)
It's great to see another take on a Gemini social site. Thanks for making it :)
Here is my first feedback ;) the code formatted blocks are quite hard to read on lagrange on my phone, I have to scroll sideways. Is there a possibility of changing that or maybe offering a change as an account setting, by any chance?

Oh I also totally want to have a gemlog style feed for notifications.
Then you can subscribe to it in your browser of choice.
Still doing some initial experiments for that.

That's a really good idea, I'll try to implement that tomorrow and push it live!
I don't think it should be very hard to implement with how I've modularized things.
I wish you luck with your restructuring!
And thank you very much,
I have some fun plans in the future for this capsule.
Something like subdomain hosting for capsules for registered users, to provide hosting for formatted text.
Maybe a super compact viewing mode on here.
Taking a small break though to mess with the crawler before doing bigger things here.
But something like text formatting is a great idea.

All of that sounds really good!
(making me consider some restructuring of
documents/formatting on my own pubnix
myself mhm).
The only thing I could think of is, maybe if there's
a way to integrate word-wrapping within a
pre-formatted text frame? Thx for giving this
a go btw, this is an amazing capsule. :)

I'm thinking of a few small to medium sized updates for the nexus, just some things that have been bothering me a little bit since I released it.
I think I want to remove the dob requirement for registration, as well as changing the tos so it's agreed by default (a "by registering you agree to blah blah blah").
I want to make the user onboarding experience a little easier, and it would make the registration page a bit cleaner.
I also want to open up post "images" to allow for any kind of link as there's not any difference between the two.
Are there other things anyone would want to suggest? Or comments on these proposed updates?

So I released this capsule yesterday, after lots of work.
I thought maybe I'd take a break from gemini coding and stuff.
Today, after work, I wrote a crawler to traverse gemspace.
It's going around now, it's found a few thousand pages so far!
Excited to look at the data and captions written for the traversed links.

This is where I got mine, they're an official UK seller for them who ships worldwide (I'm in the US).
I know most popular places to get them scalp their prices (amazon and such).
Don't want anyone overpaying!
