I can tear my network apart, and power the pieces back on in a different configuration, and connect and start fixing/changing configs, without having to exert any brainpower.</p><p>brainpower can be a highly limited resource.

The BSD Cafe Journal<p><strong>A Self-hosted, BSD-native Gemini Protocol Server Stack</strong></p> <p>For those who are adventurous enough to explore the non-http corners of the Internet, the Gemini protocol is a delightful experience to use. It has been around a number of years, making the biggest bang around the time when discontent with the web’s general demise started to reach current heights (so maybe around 2022).</p> <p>My “capsule”, Vigilia, is self-hosted, and has been since its inception.

deliverator<p>I have an older nest 2nd Gen thermostat that's going EOL (won't work remotely anymore).
