If Satoshi has at least half a brain (which we know he has), he knows that moving even one coin from this historical stack could crash the whole Bitcoin economy. So, no, he doesn’t…

My theory is that Satoshi is a persona created by Adam Back and Hal Finney. They probably devised something where both needed to agree and sign something for Satoshi to act. This a…

is it because I was young? I still believe phpbb forums were the best!

Your example is completely stupid: I’m talking about writing a website. Would you go to rural Spain without knowing a word of Spanish and handle flyers with a Spanish text you had …

Exactly! If you can use GrapheneOS, good for you but what /e/OS offers is: - Usable Android with your usual Android app (banking, etc) - No data sent to Google by default - Easier …

"One of my coworkers is EXTREMELY capable but functionally almost illiterate." I cannot imagine what it means. To me it reads like "I know someone who can run very fast but has no …

nope, let the user does the translation, with his own choice of tool and being thus perfectly aware of the shortcomings. I know that some people translate my French posts to read t…

Yet another text blog that doesn’t work without Javascript. What kind of sick mind does it take to ensure a straight blog post requires Javascript?

Me too but I’m OP. Really happy to see I’m not alone!

see that contributed picture: https://offpunk.net/screenshots/resist.png

the "open" open outside. So you go to a site. If the site is not complete, try "v full" (for "view full"). The reason is that there was no unmerdify rule for your site and that rea…

well, indeed. If you use mutt and use the "reply" feature in Offpunk, you will see how well emails and blog/gemini posts merge well ;-) (this will be the subject of another post la…

I tried to add kiwix support to Offpunk in the early days but kiwix do not support incremental update of the wikipedia database, which makes it a huge pain point.

The cache is pure and straight files-in-folders. This makes it trivial to browse the cache by hand: cd .cache/offpunk/https/news.ycombinator.com/item cat "id=46943752" So it could …

Contributions are welcome. I even believe that this whole code should be migrated from python-requests to curl.

OP here and Vim/UNIX fan. I get the idea behind "reinventing Emacs". But there are main differences: - offpunk is an offline content browser/reader. Main component is fetching/cach…

OP here: Didn’t even come to my mind while writing this. This would be totally against the philosophy of the projects. Don’t worry: I wanted to celebrate humans cooperating over go…

Try "gemini protocol", it helps a lot. But, trully, there’s no much to search. The beauty of Gemini is how small it is: all technical informations should be there : https://geminip…

offpunk’s slowness has two main sources (while offline): - loading modules at startup (will be solved in 3.1 with lazy loading, patch is pending) - parsing HTML with lot of picture…

each tool needs very specific set of options so we can’t just let the user input any command. And offpunk has been built for use with chafa since the start. Timg is just an histori…

Well it seems that, those days, instead of SUM(expense1,expense2) you ask an LLM to "make an app that will compute the total of multiple expenses". If I read most of the news on th…

It is also a matter of choice. I don’t remember any news trivia, I don’t engage with "people news" and, to be honest, I forget a lot of what people tell me about random subject. It…

We use Chafa but I’m curious. Are you planing to contribute something related to w3m?
