Hello everyone!
First off.. Hope you are all doing well and Happy Holidays!
Has been great to see tilde.club come alive again and we hope we can continue to provide a service that people will enjoy and use.
On that note I would like to find out what the community would like to see tilde.club become.
Reply to this topic with ANY suggestions of additional services or improvements we can be making to the tilde.club experience.
Please note:
SSH login now requires key. Password authentication has been turned off. Stop by IRC or shoot a mail to root(a)tilde.club if you need help getting back in now that password auth is disabled for SSH.
Thanks everyone!
Hello, ~clubbers:
Welcome to the first-ever Weekly Webpage Workshop. I've seen many a
complaint amongst you that you don't know what to put on your shiny new
~club webpages. The gleaming white blankness can be intimidating, so I've
decided to at least *try* to change that by sending out what you might
call "HTML writing prompts" each week. If you like, try implementing the
idea yourself, and then share and discuss your attempt in this thread.
Next week, I'll try to put together a participation summary for your
enjoyment.
So, onward we march to the first prompt:
**Make a custom 404 page.**
We all know 404 pages. `HTTP 404 Not Found` is the tumbleweed-filled
wasteland that meets any traveller of the Internet unfortunate enough to
follow a dead link (or mistype a URL). Most web servers don't bother
replacing the bland default 404 page that ships with their server binary,
and a good fraction don't even have such pages. Instead, they just tell
the web server to redirect 404s back to the homepage, or something boring
like that.
A few server admins have the creativity and lightness of heart to take a
page that normally creates frustration or disappointment and make it at
least a little fun. Take [Google](https://http://google.com/404) and
[Slack](https://slack.com/404) as examples. (Many more examples exist;
these are just the ones that came to my mind immediately.) Your task,
should you choose to accept it, is to build such a page for yourself and
host it somewhere on your ~tilde.
Maybe consider putting a neat `.gif` or video on your 404 page, or perhaps
a meaningless aphorism. Make it simple or grand, detailed or unpolished.
It's up to you.
As far as I'm aware, there's no way to make your 404 page show up as the
actual 404 page for your ~tilde without help from ~ben or ~deepend. I'll
say that getting your 404 page set up on tilde.club will be extra credit.
Fly, you fools! And have fun,
Bradley
That’s the prompt this time. How are you?
I’m in the southern hemisphere, so I’m still getting used to the idea that December is a really hot month. It’s enjoyable, but … strange. I’m drawing comics again! I’m really excited about it.
Which reminds me, if you’ve kicked off a new project, don’t hesitate to share a link or just talk about how you’re excited!
Let's make a silly little story together. Everyone will add one
sentence, each on a new line, until it feels like it finishes well, at
which point one should write END on a line after the last sentence.
Thanks for adding me to the mailing list. I don't know if this is reaching
anyone else, or if I was added by accident (I created ~tea on tildeclub).
Who are you?

Hello all,
I've had an account at tildecow.com server, which is at pfhawkins' list.
The server is down since Sunday 19/10/27. Do you have any information about
the status (down for a certain time frame/forever), as admin/owner
Chickenbaconranch(a)protonmail.com does not
respond to my e-mails (but e-mails to this address are not bounced)?
Best regards and thanks,
~ml
Hello everyone! I am sneak. (https://tilde.zone/@sneak on the fediverse.) This is sort of an intro post, and sort of a call for assistance.
First off, I'd like to say hi, and how much I love the tildeverse - I also ran a free unix box for about 20 years (the domain was registered in 1997) - and I want it to grow and continue. If there is anything I can do to assist in that, let me know.
I'm working on a project that is only relevant to Las Vegas local people, so if you don't go there or know anyone there, you can skip the rest.
https://cryptoparty.vegas is an attempt at getting a once-monthly Las Vegas cryptoparty going. If you haven't heard, cryptoparties are community gatherings where people who may not be super techncial can learn about preserving their privacy and security online. All are welcome.
If you know anyone who would like to participate, either as an attendee, or as a speaker/teacher, please let me know.
Best,
sneak
