We seem to have a lot of new members tonight. How did you learn about
tilde.club? I'm assuming someone blogged/tweeted about it to create this
coincidence.
Hi all
Not sure whether this list is the right one, but I have a question about
running a small Python Flask web on tilde.club.
I saw that Python 3.8 is installed on tilde.club, so I created a
virtualenv and got all the dependencies for the app. So far so good.
I can even run the app on the Flask-built-in server and the app says
that it "is running on http://127.0.0.1:8050/“, but obviously I cannot
make tilde.club’s whole underlying web server make listen on port
8050!
So, I am curious how I could run that flask webapp, so that it can be
accessed from the outside through a subpath of my homepage
www.tilde.club/~halloleo/, for example
http://www.tilde.club/~halloleo/flask.
Maybe this is a silly question, but I really have no idea how to do
this.
Happy web hacking,
~halloleo
hello tildeverse!
my name is tyler etters and i am an artist. this is my first email here
and first time using alpine. my friend ~license and i joined a tilde.club
a few days ago.
i just released some new music and am hosting the download codes at
gemini://tilde.club/~tse
i'm promoting the music now and incentivizing people to learn about gemini
this way. i think this (glorified marketing campaign) an ok proof of
concept but doesn't nearly scratch the surface of what can be done here
artistically.
i'm passionate about educating people about privacy, ops-sec,
info-sec... as an artist i think i can make a unique contribution to the
gemini world this way. raising awareness, driving adoption, and making
some cool tunes along the way.
are there any other artsists or musicians here? i would love to connect
and talk about strategies using gemini in art.
p.s. i read our mailing list netittique page and hope this email abides.
sincerely,
~tse
Hello all!
I joined tilde.club a couple days ago, and I had the idea to improve the webring
so that it has "next" and "previous" links, so that you actually can follow the
ring to the end and arrive where you started, one page after the other.
Since this can only work if every page has the webring snippet in it, I have
made it so that participation is opt-in: only users with a ~/.ring file in their
home are used.
The implementation is fully server-side, so browsers without javascript enabled
can enjoy it as well.
I explain in detail how to join the webring at
https://tilde.club/~cosarara/ring_info.html
And you can see it in action at https://tilde.club/~cosarara/
I would expect people to get creative with the presentation of the
snippet. Say, instead of "Previous page" and "Next page" having
<- -> or unicode arrows, or using an old style image map, etc.
It would be cool if they didn't all look the same, is my point.
Right now, the ring has only 2 users in it (me, ~cosarara, and ~deepend), so it
is quite short.
If you like the idea, please join!
And if you don't, or have questions, just reply to this thread :)
Peace,
~cosarara
I get pretty regularly blocked from tilde's nntp (pretty much every time
Comcast flickers and we get a new IP address) but this business of
timeouts reaching the server at all is new. Is all of Comcast under
interdict, or am I just stuck in a block with a bunch of bad actors?
(Not much choice of ISP in South Jersey. And I love you tilde but I'm
not setting up a VPN just for you.)
Hi all
I think I missed a prompt somewhere... here's a quick message to introduce myself (http://tilde.club/~bupkes).
My name's Matt. I am in my mid-forties and I live in a town called Lewes just near Brighton on the south coast of the UK.
I'm married and we have a 12yo kid and a cat.
I've had a few jobs in the past, most of my twenties in a record shop but now I work for a charity.
My job is basically working with blind people (generally older people) explaining how to use various bits of technology.
Many people I work with have never used a computer before and can't see what I am talking about, so it can be tricky :)
For fun at work I play with VR stuff which - surprisingly, I guess - works really well with people who have poor vision.
At home I enjoy playing with Python and doing cryptic crosswords. Every week my wife and I do a twitch stream (https://www.twitch.tv/bupkes_)where we (and a bunch of people in chat) do a puzzle.
Anyway that's me, or at least a bit of me.
I'm here to meet people and learn new things.
See you around.
Matt / ~bupkes
