schestowitz__> Hi RoyFeb 16 07:28
schestowitz__> Thanks, and I appreciate you removing the politics from the image, andFeb 16 07:28
schestowitz__> crediting, but it looks like I've done a terrible job on the art now,Feb 16 07:29
schestowitz__> lol. Fresh version attached, incase original lost, and definitely usingFeb 16 07:29
schestowitz__> a layer over any original art makes it really easy to edit and re-useFeb 16 07:29
schestowitz__> lots of times. If the present image can be removed/replaced, that wouldFeb 16 07:29
schestowitz__> be awesome. Hope the fresh upload is helpful, and thanks again.Feb 16 07:29
schestowitz__Cheers, I will reupload now.Feb 16 07:29
schestowitz__By the way, weeks ago my wife asked if she can buy art from you. She really loves your work and wants to pay for it. Is that something you would do?Feb 16 07:29

Techrights-secI'm still not finding my way around Git yet.Feb 16 09:57
schestowitz__Maybe one day there will be a truly decentralised, p2p system for those sorts of things. svn and cvs did not last very longFeb 16 09:57
schestowitz__ot; rianne and I think we can afford to retire in 2-3 years, then focus entirely on our sites, but at times like these with unpredictable economies it's hard to set anything in stoneFeb 16 09:58
Techrights-secearly retirement is good, if there is enough saved to keep up with the rate ofFeb 16 10:20

schestowitz__seems like job prospects are not great, either, esp. for those who risk losing what they haveFeb 16 10:20

Techrights-secOoos. I'll check on the iRC logsFeb 16 11:32
Techrights-secOk.  All set/Feb 16 11:32
Techrights-sec2017 is in place now tooFeb 16 11:32
schestowitz__is it worth producing gemini howtos?Feb 16 11:32
schestowitz__does the front page/index page have the option to scan for past years and add to the index their monthly archives? I've just tested that those pages are, indeed, accessibleFeb 16 11:34
Techrights-secFor the site, I've been adding notes and refactoring when I can.Feb 16 11:34
Techrights-secThere's not much to say but to point to the page about the file specification.Feb 16 11:34
Techrights-secThat would be for the site.  Then agate or another server would be coveredFeb 16 11:34
Techrights-secelsewhereFeb 16 11:34
schestowitz__All that I can say about agate was already covered elsewhereFeb 16 11:35
schestowitz__I just spent 10 minutes checking how to make animated gifs. In the process I broke webcamoid and had to use apt to fix it, which took a while...Feb 16 11:35
Techrights-secYes, anything can be added to the front index, that is in gemini-main-index-template.shFeb 16 11:36
Techrights-secHowever, the index should not get cluttered,  Maybe a second index of Feb 16 11:36
Techrights-sec*everything* should be in  a second page?Feb 16 11:36
schestowitz__yes, I realised it would become way too long with all those past years, not sure what hierarchy would suit visitors best and didn't manage to find software for in-capsule searchFeb 16 11:36
Techrights-secHOWTO in which context?   Feb 16 11:37
Techrights-secI think some kind of hierarchy of pages might be best for navigation.Feb 16 11:41
schestowitz__I am trying to think of tricks for pseudo-search, or offline searches, but wiki pages are more effective at thisFeb 16 11:42
Techrights-secIs there something like CGI?Feb 16 12:00
Techrights-secLooking at the spec there is an option for input.Feb 16 12:00
schestowitz__Yes, the most basic such optionFeb 16 12:00
schestowitz__we have been added to gemini://geminispace.info index. I am looking for examples, working examples, of in-capsule search. It's hard to find docs on "gemini" as it's a widely used termFeb 16 12:03
Techrights-secMaybe it could be a one-field input for a local filesystem search,Feb 16 12:04
Techrights-secthere used to be something called glimpse but there is probably somethingFeb 16 12:04
Techrights-secbetter now.Feb 16 12:04
Techrights-secGood, being in the index with raise visibility further.Feb 16 12:04
Techrights-secYes, the term is rather common and thus difficult to search for.Feb 16 12:05
schestowitz__I can barely find even simple examples of POST/input/user queryFeb 16 12:08
Techrights-secWould any of the contacts doing indexing have tips?Feb 16 12:14
schestowitz__I prefer not to 'bother' them if I can locate something online, but I think such a form would also be valuable for other things, esp. if we want to avoid spam/botsFeb 16 12:14
schestowitz__getting closer, but still no working example of query interfaces https://www.susa.net/wordpress/2020/06/gemini-protocol-markup/ https://samsai.eu/post/introduction-to-gemini/Feb 16 12:19

schestowitz__The more I look into it, the less convinced I become that POST is supported at all (some say it is not). I looked at the original spec, too, and I cannot find where it says that it supports it. Some site let you search (GUS for example) and I saw games over gemini that do the same, but maybe it it beyond the standardFeb 16 12:40
