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

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Tuesday, 17-Jul-2018 16:12:10 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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...

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Saturday, 14-Jul-2018 21:39:58 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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!

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Friday, 13-Jul-2018 10:33:12 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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!

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Monday, 09-Jul-2018 14:26:57 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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!

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Sunday, 08-Jul-2018 14:29:28 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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!

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Saturday, 07-Jul-2018 14:29:55 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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.

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Thursday, 05-Jul-2018 14:17:10 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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!

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Wednesday, 04-Jul-2018 15:53:14 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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.

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Tuesday, 03-Jul-2018 11:09:00 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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!

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Monday, 02-Jul-2018 11:32:37 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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.

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Saturday, 30-Jun-2018 10:44:35 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma 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?

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Friday, 29-Jun-2018 19:41:55 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma Good afternoon #sdfers, #fediversers and #phloggers! So today I worked more on switching my accounts from google. It was surprisingly easy and felt liberating. I'd say I'm 97% of the way done, and as far as dropbox and google drive go, I'm just gonna use syncthing. I'm still compiling a list of resources that concern recommended sites, applications and so on and so forth for people to use that are decentralized, open source and secure. I want to make a wiki about it eventually.

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Thursday, 28-Jun-2018 17:48:38 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma Good afternoon #SDFers. #fediversers and #phloggers! So today #Protonmail was under attack by a DDoS, and a group claimed responsibility. I have most of my email on there, and I couldn't access it today, which got me worried. Even if there's good solutions to everything, it's gotta be decentralized and you can't put your trust into just one piece of the puzzle. Ultimately, it's harder having multiple accounts for everything, but in the end, it's safer and more reliable. What all do you think?

Zed Ex Fuuma (fuuko)'s status on Wednesday, 27-Jun-2018 19:14:42 EDT Zed Ex Fuuma Good evening #SDFers, #fediversers and #phloggers! Yesterday is when I seriously started to move almost all my email out of gmail. I'd say I'm almost completely done with the email bit of my de-google-fying. I'd say I'm 90% with things now, and now with the help of the #freedombox, I am also successfully moving things out of other services as well and making them my own instead of being owned by a third-party! Onward and upward we go!
