The moon was dark pink, almost red last night. I'd never seen a moon like that.

emergency misfin roll call — Hello, I call on this roll call in the effort of making sure all systems are still operational in terms of the Hashnix misfin server. Recently I had helped a user delete their account, though in doing so I noticed a strange glitch occured between misfin and the directories for gemboxes and identities. After resetting the server, my account's gembox had been wiped. I must post this now in the interest of all users to make sure that hasn't happened across the board....

POTA- Parks On the Air — Have you heard someone calling CQ POTA, or maybe a pile up trying to reach an operator and they're just giving an RST (signal report) and a SPC (State Code)? It might be a Parks on the Air station. They are portable operations set up in a park as defined by the program and it's a type of radio sport again where you're trying to collect contacts. You can be an Activator, (in the park) or a Hunter, (not in a park) to collect points and make lists and all the usual stuff....

Vanity — After a busy long week, I left early today. The team gave me dirty looks for leaving them, but something was in my eye. I have been searching in the mirror for two hours, sweating. Violently rubbing is the only way to feel relief from the sandpaper under my eyelids. I pinched a hair in my eye and pulled. It was stuck. A sharp, stabbing pain shot into the back of my head. I trimmed the hair as closely as I could using nail clippers. In an instant, it felt as if I was staring into the...

Ham Radio... I was tuned into 40m this morning and I also had the SKCC Sked page up which is a real time chat room for SKCC members to use on line. There's a fellow NY'er AD2DX and Nate's hangin on 20m but bouncing around looking for QSO's shen he chanced on an Australian ham on 14Mhz as well (also a SKCC person so on the Sked page) 10 watts and timing and they made it happen. There's plenty of times your on the air and you say "asshats.." when you hear them operating like Lids, but there's...

Ah, the end of summer. Enjoying a warm evening sitting outside on the patio, thinking about Titan improvements for Lagrange. I had a few moments earlier to get started on the ";edit" parameter, although it was slow-going. The vacation has purged my mental models.

reading list! because, why not? ~ “the myth of sisyphus” by Albert Camus ~ “the third Reich” by Roberto Bolaño ~ “the romantic dogs” by Roberto Bolaño ~ “the stranger” by Albert Camus ~ “kallokain” by Karin Boye ~ “the dangers of smoking in bed” by Mariana Enriquez ~ “la familia” by Sara Mesa ~ “suicides in Taiwan” (this one includes a text by Qiu Miaojin, one of my favorite writers- if anyone has somewhere where I can find it I would appreciate it a lot..) ~ “cauterio” by Lucía Lijtmaer

What a difference a day makes: Yesterday I was doing really well It was Weekend Sprint from SKCC and I caught some pota and a Maryland QSO party. RST ranged from 339-599 with my 5w set up. Today/this evening I can't get a how do you do! Didn't get any more WES hits or the SST slow speed test that' happens Friday and Sunday evenings in EDT. K index bounced up so that's a good sign that lQRP will be hard to do! Good sign for Aurora though if you're in Northern Tier states. [https link]

Debian upgrade...to bullseye — Today I learned there hasn't been security updates for buster since June 😮 so I urgently upgraded my server, which was a bit risky to do in the evening - I might have ended up all night trying to fix it... Main thing I was worried about was my mail server (dovecot + postfix), as that's not stuff I know off the top of my head, but thankfully that part of the setup had no issues ! My php websites didn't come back - but all I had to do was install lib-apache2-mod-...

I was just about to post to s/Meta because I tried and failed to add a new certificate to my BBS account. The page accepts my user-name, but keeps re-asking for my password, as if the user-name or password were incorrect. When I tried to create the post, I discovered another problem: Entering the ‘:’ command to get the Titan form does't work; I get the response “Input Required”. At the last second, I thought to try the same in Lagrange, and both actions succeeded. It seems like I've...

Following on from random2934 throwing a project idea out there. I think something that might be useful to folks is if someone was able to host a DynDNS service which used a periodic gemini request with an identity cert to update IPs for registered domains associated with that cert. Registration (including association of the identity) and management of domains and associated RR would be fairly doable via a gemini interface. Nice easy: setup of the service and add the domain(s) you intend to...

I recently tried out what a short story might look like if it were written by an AI. Together with the children, I entered a few ideas that came to mind. Then we tweaked it a few more times. We could smile about it. But the whole thing is also kind of flat. We wanted to make a sequel, made a nice plot and the kids came up with some great ideas. Somehow it seemed to me that we didn't need the AI anymore, the story was already written. ... I'll have to think about that. Greetings
