Good afternoon #sdf, #tildeverse and #fediverse! Watching Trix play Dark Souls 3! Come get in here: https://www.twitch.tv/bagotrixhttps://www.twitch.tv/bagotrix

Good afternoon #sdf, #tildeverse and #fediverse! Today I wonder about how we can make self-hosting easy for the average person. Something they could learn in 5 min with a cheat sheet.

Of course, it depends on what you want to self-host, and it also opens a can of security worms.

Maybe peer-to-peer solutions are the way to go for now? Stuff like RetroShare, ZeroNet, I2P and the like are good examples I guess, but are there other good applications out there not listed on wikipedia?

Good afternoon #sdf, #fediverse and #phloggers! Today I plan to experiment with the #tomu, which, if you didn't know, is an ARM microcontroller that is super tiny! You plug it into the usb port of your computer, in fact! It also has 2 buttons and 2 LEDs. It doesn't have much storage space, but someone managed to put C64 BASIC onto it, which you can access via serial! Anyways, I'm also playing with a #opensolaris distro called Tribblix. It's apparently meant to be retro and uses SVR4 packages

Good afternoon #sdf, #fediverse and #phloggers! Today Discord was down for 30 minutes(as far as I know). This isn't a rant about Discord, however. I just know that millions of people place their trust and their business(like streamers) onto proprietary networks like Twitch and Discord. What happens when proprietary software becomes too big to fail? I don't want to see my fav Twitch streamers lose their business, but I'm worried...

Good evening #sdf, #phloggers and #fediverse! Once again I would like to point out that I created a tilde, which will be a constant WIP from here on out. It's an intentional community like tilde.town. It runs on a freedombox. I want to promote free software, open hardware and more within it. Right now I have Mumble, IRC and Matrix servers running!

All are welcome!

Good morning #sdf, #fediverse and #phloggers! Last night I logged into my SDF account and realized I hadn't updated my homepage in forever. Not to mention my gophersite as well. So I updated my phlog and today will update my homepage.

The thing is, I want to completely revamp my site into one that's lynx friendly(Which it already kinda is) and is less messy with the links. So yeah, I need inspiration!

Good afternoon #sdf + #fediverse + #phloggers ! Still waiting for a distro to replace my Win10 machine! I'm thinking that until I can replace it, I'll use the #freebsd desktop I have.

I'm also thinking that I won't be running a #tilde, #gopher, #irc or any other type of instance atm because in order people to want to come to it, it's gotta be advertised and most people just wind up going to either SDF or tilde.town.

I still plan to use the #freedombox because it's amazing!

Good afternoon #sdf, #fediverse and #phloggers! Normally I would be playing #dnd right about now, but the DM is out of town.

I am thinking of converting my #freedombox setup to a #tilde, and it should be rather easy to do so. As far as my #BBS goes, I am thinking of retiring that and just using that for a box that runs #syncthing and #gopher!

Good afternoon #sdf, #fediverse and #phloggers! Do you ever see how many online accounts you have, and realize you've probably been data-mined since the beginning of whenever all that Web 2.0 stuff began?

Not to mention all the security breaches we DON'T know about because corporate doesn't think it's worth telling us about?

So I've decided that I'm getting rid of some of my accounts that aren't needed any longer.

Good afternoon #sdf, #fediverse and #phloggers! Unfortunately, I am still tied down by proprietary services. I think I can get rid of twitter now, I just need to tell my friends about Mastodon! Next on the hit list is google! Then finally, the big one, facebook.

It's been a long road, but I believe that I will become proof that nowadays you don't need to rely on such services and that, depending on your needs, there's a better solution out there just waiting to be used!

Good afternoon #sdf, #fediverse and #phloggers! So I setup my wiki site, and it's on the net. I just need to continue to work on it before I let anyone know where to find it. Also I got a #disroot account! It's awesome that they use #nextcloud, #xmpp and a host of other free software for their site! I would like a #riseup account too, but apparently you need an invite link or something.

Good morning #sdf, #fediverse and #phloggers! Still working on the synchronet BBS... also on my wiki dedicated to de-google-fying and decentralization and privacy and so on and so forth.

On another note, my new laptop, the sound wasn't working right, and I figured out that it was driver issues. I fixed it! Sadly tho, I can't switch to Linux just yet because the wireless driver hasn't been integrated into the kernel. It's a Realtek 8723de card.

On the DnD front, I found a campaign to DM! Woo!

Good morning #SDF, #fediverse and #phloggers! I got my freedombox running on the big scary 'net last night, and so far I'm running the #coquelicot, #searx and #syncthing services. It's running pretty smooth so far! As far as my #BBS goes, I'm thinking of also making a website that would advertise it and directs people on how to reach it. In effect, I would like it to be like a #tilde. Fortunately #synchronet offers lots of services that anyone can use. So yeah, that's what I'm up to.

Good morning #SDF, #fediverse and #phloggers! I ordered another Raspberry #pi since I felt my older one just wasn't cutting it anymore. I'll put a #gopher server and #BBS on the new one coming.

I'm thinking of experimenting with #arduino, so I wanna know, what kind of things can you do with a arduino and a pi together? Have you peeps done anything cool lately with your pis and arduinos?

Good afternoon #sdf, #fediverse! The #neogeo mini looks fun! And it comes with all my favorite games!

Good morning #sdf, #fediverse! So I’m back at my family’s place. They have a win xp machine that’s agonizingly slow. I would like to replace with a fast and cheap Linux machine. I mean, this thing has 512 mb of ram and like 20 gb or less of hd space. Dunno of any good Linux machines that are cheap tho...

Good morning #fediverse, #sdf! Today I've watched a Retro Man Cave episode and I've got to say, the dude is impressive in his upkeep of retro electronics. He makes me want to make sure I keep my electronics around as long as I possibly can, game systems and computers. I want to anyway, because I hate planned obsolescence! I just have no electronics education when it comes to hardware and also things like soldering and whatnot. I want to learn tho.
