and creation tool, now has 256/true colour support plus a bunch of optimisations including all dependencies bumped to the latest they can go currently.

I forked moebius because it was no longer being maintained (since like 2023), needed some new features and some optimisations.

      So I've been quietly building something and now it's finally ready.

      ssbbss.org - the Secret Society of BBS SysOps - is now live.

      It's a certification program for BBS operators. Four ranks: Initiate, Operator, Adept, and Master. Every rank has a curriculum covering the things that actually matter - BBS software, door games, message networks, ANSI art, FidoNet, the history and the law.

      Study materials are free and open to anyone, no account needed.

      When you're ready, you sit the exam. Pass, and you're a certified member. You get a downloadable PDF certificate with a QR verification link, an ANSI badge you can display on your own BBS, and a member ID in the public registry.

      Right now there are 95/100 Founding Member spots available. £99 one-time - that covers all four exam slots, lifetime membership (no annual fees ever), a physical certificate shipped to you, and a low member ID. Once those 100 are gone, they're gone.

      If you run a BBS, or you used to, or you just care about keeping this scene alive - come and have a look.

        "For instance is there anything similar to RSS for gopher."
        The best way is likely to write a bash script to construct an XML file with a page per channel.

        'cURL' should be useful since it support gopher, although you will have to custom script it.

        'Lynx' browser also handles gopher quite nicely and you should be able to use the -dump feature and parse what you want.

        'sfeed' may also help: https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/resolute/man1/sfeed_gopher.1.html

          Released v1.3.3. of , my surprisingly popular tool for visualizing YARA rule matches with colors (a lot of colors).

          1. --export-png images lets you export images of the analysis

          2. almost all command line options (including multi argument ones like --yara-rules-dir) can be permanently set via environment variables or .yaralyzer file

          3. couple of small bug fixes and debugging related command line options

          You can try it on the web here: yaratoolkit.securitybreak.io/
          (I didn't build this website, Thomas Roccia from Microsoft just integrated Yaralyzer into his existing site)

          - on macOS you can also get it with by installing Pdfalyzer: brew install pdfalyzer

              10Rogue (1984)

              Food is often randomly scattered throughout the levels. You have varying degrees of luck, or not. Finding it as you progress is key. Save your steps! Yesterday I lost the game at level 8, ran out of food, & ended up stuck.. My character couldn't move anymore.

              Today seems to be looking better. We'll see!

                          Naturally, I had heard of this game for a very long time but never gave it a try until I spotted it in the Manjaro repo. Having tried it out at this point, I can't believe how unappreciated it is these days!

                          One of the most classic roguelikes, based on the Silmarillion-era Tolkien stories, and fully open source to boot.

                          Whether you play in ASCII or with fan-made tile packs, it's a fantastic retro roguelike!
