The new feeds functionality in @jk 's #lagrange is fantastic. What a friendly, convenient, and attractive way to browse the #gemini space.

Am convinced that attractive & intuitive (to those coming from web browsers) cross-platform GUI clients like #lagrange are the most important projects in the #gemini world if it's to gain a bigger audience.Even a lot of techies, like me, aren't complete CLI devotees, and enjoy some very pretty GUI typography.

@mike @docskrzyk 😀 I still have a 16mb Crucial USB stick somewhere in a drawer from pre-dropbox time in my university days.

I was today years old when I learned this 'Mandalorian' thing everyone is on about is to do with Star Wars.

Going to stream to #tilderadio a little as I sort out records. Alphabetizing time!

@Gina ughhh. HP are the worst. Several weeks of not being able to print for me, as a firmware update locked out the non-HP cartridges I have. The genuine ones (902) are out of stock everywhere for weeks, due to work from home demand, even direct from HP. Printer is currently a useless lump :-(

For any #gemini folk - I've made a start on a manually curated directory of gemini capsules/sites, by category. I think there are enough links for it to be initially useful. I hope to fill it out over time, as well as refine the very brief descriptions that are now present. I would be very glad of suggestions for links!gemini://directory.randomroad.net/

Added some more sites to my fledgling #gemini directory this evening. Some submissions by email already 🙂 Also starting to get things organized a bit. Planning to mostly fold gemlogs into other categories where appropriate, and add any submissions in the next week or so.gemini://directory.randomroad.net/If you think it's useful, but missing a good link, please let me know!

Here's something I didn't expect to work at all, but mostly does... #trisquel 9 without any non-free stuff added, running on a 2017 iMac.No onboard sound, wifi, or bluetooth. Other than that it works.

Stretching things a bit now.... a 5.10.4 kernel and only the non-free Intel Wi-Fi firmware added makes the MacBook 12” workable under #trisquel 9. Sound is headphone jack only. Why do this? Every now and again I like to see how close to fully free software I can get on the computers I have, and Trisquel being Ubuntu 1804 derived is slightly more convenient for me than Debian without non-free.

@klaatu @chaosmonk I’ve looked into it in depth before. The newer iMacs use a custom sound output setup with a multi channel amplifier. It’s not supported at all. Doesn’t bother me though as I have a USB audio dongle that runs sound into a stereo, so I do have sound.
