Write semantic HTML, add <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://latex.vercel.app/style.css"> to the <head> of your project and you are good to go. The source code can be found on GitHub at https://github.com/vincentdoerig/latex-css.

I looked at Mastodon myself today quickly, but I think I'll try spinning up a docker container at home inside a VM or something and see how to expose it lightly to the internet. > The problem is not the hardware in our houses, assuming you control > the software (like Linux), and it is not installed and updated by > sinister forces (like MS Window). > The problem is how to communicate through the internet without your > messages going into sinister databases. So there's the issue! If we want to have a productive conversation, then maybe we need to be willing to share our thoughts. Now maybe we limit who can "be in the room" to just those we like. Or just limit people who can write to those we like. But sharing the conversation isn't a terrible thing. > I used to run a smtp mail server on a computer in my basement with a > DSL connection and static IP address. They broke that.

I very much do the same thing. I'm I'm going nuts getting opendkim and postfix on Debian 12 working together to sign my outgoing emails properly. It's driving me nuts! > If the CIA or DOD use Windows or a cloud server, they have a > problem, because they are worth a lot of trouble. Cloudstrike! :-)

Tomorrows meeting will also have a virtual component

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody, Sorry about that.. Yes, we will also have an online meeting! At the usual spot as well: https://meet.jit.si/WlugMA -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

I can't go to Technocopia, but I plan to log in to https://meet.jit.si/WlugMA You didn't mention that, but I hope and assume it is still on. Some people on the mailing list expressed an interest in document (book) production systems. I have made a few slides and planned a short presentation of how I use LaTeX. I wouldn't want to take the whole meeting, but maybe 10 min depending on how many questions people ask. I don't know what mastodon, revolt, or tailscale are. Will google. I know what a (rasberry) pi is, but don't see how it helps. The problem is not the hardware in our houses, assuming you control the software (like Linux), and it is not installed and updated by sinister forces (like MS Window). The problem is how to communicate through the internet without your messages going into sinister databases. I used to run a smtp mail server on a computer in my basement with a DSL connection and static IP address. They broke that. Now my Rogue-ness consists in using a VPS in the cloud to do it. Theoretically, the VPS provider could monitor everything I do, but I am reasonably confident that I am not worth the trouble. If the CIA or DOD use Windows or a cloud server, they have a problem, because they are worth a lot of trouble. -- Keith

Reminder! Meeting tomorrow!! Location: Technocopia, Topic: Going rogue.

by Tim Keller

Hey Gang! Location: Technocopia, 44 Portland St. Worcester MA. Date: November 21st, 2024 Time: 7PM Topic: Going rogue. I know, a flashy title to draw you in! Let's be frank, the digital landscape is looking a bit bleak right now. More and more, I'm finding myself not that interested in posting anything about myself or my family because I don't need some AI algorithmically categorizing me. Even this email I'm sure is being analyzed by google.. gmail is free for a reason.. I had an idea and that was this. Would people be interested in a mastodon server running inside a tailscale mesh? Or some other service, like IRC or https://revolt.chat/ or I'm sure other people have other great ideas. My plan is to show off a pi running mastodon and/or revolt with tailscale. I'd love to hear people's thoughts about this. If people even think the tailscale stuff is needed. So that's my thought for what we might talk about. As usual, there will be dinner afterwards and I'm sure we'll keep talking. See you there! Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
