New payload on my #gemlog

Sshhhh...don’t tell anyone

I have a confession to make. I never took the time to switch my various VPS to key-based login. Sure, I changed the SSH port and disabled root login, but so far I have actually relied on fail2ban and reeeeeeally long passwords.

Then I stumbled upon a very interesting blog post by Elena, which pointed my to an excellent video by Veronica. And my mind was blown!

I always thought that setting up keys and getting them to the servers was a lot of work. Turns out, it isn’t. I was done in about 30 minutes, which included watching the video twice and taking everything step by step. And keeping a proper SSH config file will make my life much more comfortable from now on.

My home-based servers will also be switch from passwords to keys soon, even though they’re not ssh-able from the outside at all.

Thanks again to Elena & Veronica for the precious infos.

Telescope [0] is an emacs/w3m-inspired browser for the "small internet"
that supports Gemini, Gopher and Finger. Written in C, with a privsep design in mind.

Telescope is now available on pkgsrc (below you can see it running on SPARC). With a few patches [1], it builds and runs fine on Solaris too.

Thanks @op@bsd.network, @thomasadam@bsd.network, and others for contributing to this project.

Finally, after some tweaking of https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo-plugin-gemini I'm able to view the #Gemini sites in the DIllo, not the blank page

Looks like, the gemini.filter.dpi file contains some lines, which works well with GNU sed/awk but breaks with the same BSD utils:

1) according to man 7 re_format, the "\s" can't be used to specify the space character class. Instead of it the "[:space:]" should be used.

2) The forward slash inside the awk's group should be escaped.

It is interesting that both escaped and non-escaped versions works the same way with the GNU awk

3) Added two options for ansi2html to avoid unwanted second header's content drawn on the page. And to have properly formatted and clickable links in the browser.

everyone calm down, the enormous #NPM supply chain attack of the incredibly popular (27,000 #github stars) #nx#AI build tool thingamajig is probably aimed solely at crypto bros. if you don't have any crypto you (hopefully) don't have anything to worry about.

my fact free, completely unsupported by evidence hunch is that we will find this came from #NorthKorea (because if it's a well orchestrated attempt to steal a bunch of crypto it's pretty much always north korea).

@sebsauvage Ou Gemini ? Mais pas le logiciel d'IA Générative (de qui on sait), pas l'ancien programme (!) de conquête spatiale : le #format texte et le protocole #gemini bien connu (!).
NB : il y a même une citation (+ sa référence) de Stéphane @bortzmeyer dans l'article de Wikipédia (en anglais) !

Si vous voulez changer le monde, il faut entrer en résistance. Il faut accepter d’agir et de se taire. Il faut accepter de perdre du confort, des opportunités, des relations. Et il ne faut espérer aucune récompense, aucune reconnaissance.
