Future plans for AuraGem Music Updates: The ability to change the tags (Title, Album, AlbumArist) of songs. Possibly a "Jukebox" mode that offers an infinite stream of songs played from your library. I'm also considering the idea of allowing musicians to publish their music to the capsule so that users can browse and add this music into their library. Let me know if anyone would find this interesting.

Ok, this is pretty exciting! I have finally finished one of my Gemini projects that I started almost 2 years ago, since just before Lagrange gained Titan support. Introducing AuraGem Music - a free music hosting service that will let you upload mp3's via Titan to your own private library so that you can play them from the capsule. Because of limited storage, there is a quota system, which you can find more information about on the capsule. gemini://auragem.space/music/

Ok, so... Do I spend a billion hours today trying to fix up and finish off my Sefaria proxy (providing Jewish Texts), because the API for it is terrible, or do I finish off one of my projects I have been planning for almost 2 years now that is gemini-native?
This gemini-based MUSH, ijirait, looks pretty cool. Just needs more people on it. gemini://campaignwiki.org/play/ijirait

Fun Fact: I have two hidden sections of my capsule that I started about 2 years ago that were supposed to be new services specifically for Gemini. I never ended up finishing them.

While the YT and Twitch proxies allow you to download videos, unfortunately my internet upload speed is terrible (1.25 MB/s), so they are likely not very useful atm. Once I am able to get enough money, I will hopefully be getting a server from a service provider. But right now, I don't have the means to do so.

Been using my YouTube proxy with gemini subscriptions to see new videos each day, and then download them all within Gemini. Probably going to switch to this completely now, especially since I added a download option for 720p :D I'm finally getting closer to completely replacing my web browsing!!! Now if only we could get twitch in gemini.....

The Jewish Texts on AuraGem now link to the most important Commentaries (Tosafot, Rashi, Rashbam, Tur, Shulchan Arukh, etc.) at the bottom of the text. gemini://auragem.space/texts/jewish I have been using Lagrange's split view to have Rashi's commentary on the right and the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) on the left. It's very useful for this, so thanks for that feature @skyjake :)

I'm probably pretty late with this, but... Woah, this Duckling Proxy is pretty cool! @Acidus setup a public instance at stargate.gemi.dev:1994 Then, in Lagrange's preferences, go to the Network tab, and put that url into the "http proxy" part. Now, whenever you put in an http url, or click an http url, it will automatically use that proxy to proxy http to gemini!

AuraGem's YouTube proxy will now download videos in 720p by default. Later on I will add seperate links for different qualities. You can visit the proxy here: gemini://auragem.space/youtube Note: There are currently some bugs with showing recent videos. I am working on fixing them.

The Qur'an in Arabic and a few other translations have been added to AuraGem! Now AuraGem has Christian Bibles, the Qur'an, and *almost* has a bunch of Jewish texts - this covers a whole branch of religions (except for the Samaritan Pentateuch and Latter-Day Saint books, which will be added later). Explore all of these religious texts here: gemini://auragem.space/texts

I've decided to start back up my gemlog by posting some of my entries from my journal. It'd be an interesting experiment. Hopefully since I've went through the process of taking my time journalling it out once prior without the urgency that often comes with posting to the internet, the gemlogs will be more fleshed out and coherent. I'm also considering continuing the work with gemini://auragem.space soon. I still have so many ideas for it. Because of these two things, I will probably be spending less time here on Station.

And in the naked light I saw Ten thousand people, maybe more People talking without speaking People hearing without listening People writing songs that voices never shared And no one dared disturb the sound of silence "Fools," said I, "You do not know Silence like a cancer grows Hear my words that I might teach you Take my arms that I might reach you" But my words, like silent raindrops, fell And echoed in the wells of silence - Simon and Garfunkel, The Sound of Silence

I was sexually abused as a very little kid by 2 of my step-siblings, one of them male and the other female. And yet I don't hate all males or females. Why? Because I choose not to project what happened to me onto other people. I recognize that not everyone is the same as those people who hurt me. This is likely my default overly-logical mode coming out, so I'm not going to pretend to try to understand how people can stereotype others based on how they've been hurt in the past. I recognize that it happens, and I would certainly be sympathetic to their hurtful experience, but I can never agree to the stereotyping.
