Lucid.observer new home

A new computer came my way. A small thinkcenter.
It will be a good host of lucid.observer. 

I've been reading and experimenting with raspberry
pi and openBSD, and it's not a match made in heaven. 
I also didn't have an extra raspberry 3 or 4 so I had
to experiment with one box that I used as a synth. 
But now it will have its dedicated box! It will
speed up implementation. 

Although one of my goal was to have a server that is 
as portable as possible, the thinkcenter is still
quite small although requiring more power. 

Having a small headless box is quite exciting. It's 
a lot of power for a server but at least I won't be 
lacking resource. 

Write freely

I was checking all the server that are part of the 
fediverse, then realized there was one close to
where I live. Zooming on it, I realized it was
exactly where I live. Clicking on it, I realized
it was my own instance of Write Freely. 

I really like that project, and it made me think
that lucid.observer could host a write freely
instance for its users as it publish on gopher
as well as on the surface web at the same time. 

Post Market OS

While browsing postmarket OS I saw that the eeePC 
tablet + keyboard was supported! I still have that
computer around, as it's too cute to get rid of. 

I've been wanting to install Linux on that device
for a long time. I'm excited to see how postmarket 
OS could give it more life. The Android system on 
there wasn't too bad, we used it for a long time as
our main multimedia system, watched many movies and 
played many games on it. It had a few emulators too! 

So lots of install for next week!
