Es gab die Überlegung, ein #RfD im #Usenet anzustoßen für de.comm.freifunk .
Doch ich habe das RfD zurück gezogen. Zwar wird #Freifunk prinzipiell als Thema für ein #Newsgroup als interessant gewertet, aber dann Bedenken, Gegenwind, Begründungen usw.
Keine Willkommenskultur.
Ich bin zu spät für das Usenet und kenne Internet so: Webspace mieten oder Server anschließen, loslegen und machen.
Ich dachte im Sinne der Dezentralität auch den Kanal zu nutzen.
Jedoch Mumien bitte nicht stören.

Does anyone know what are the steps to join and read a usenet newsgroup like sci.physics or sci.physics.research? I tried to simply enter "sci.physics" in Thunderbird's Newsgroup reader, but apparently it doesn't work simply like that...

Monday marks opening day for golf

It may not look like it, but Monday marks the first day boys golf and tennis teams can begin practicing across the state of Wisconsin.   Kewaunee is the only school in Door and Kewaunee counties to field a tennis team in recent years, but they did not field a girls' team last fall and likely a long shot to field a boys team this spring.   The Storm is scheduled to be the first team out of the chute for golf with an opening meet on April 8th at Par 5 against Mishicot. They will travel to Sturgeon Bay's

#NOTICE: Do people here know #usenet, #finger and other obscure protocols? I've been thinking about adding them into The Blue Pages lately and been looking into popular resources for the aforementioned. I'm also looking at popular (and useful) #gopherholes and #geminispaces too if any.

I am not interested in running my own #email server, #weblog server, etc, etc, etc.

That's a full time job in and of itself, and I know this, because I founded what was (as far as I know in the mid-1990s) the first 100% broadband end-user ISP in America.

I don't want to be in that business, anymore. I don't want to run my own #fediverse server, my own #newsgroup server, my own #webforum server, especially because so many of these basic services rely entirely on network effects for usefulness.

I've noticed a lot of people asking on the #fediverse recently whether or not there is a good #substitute for #FacebookGroups, and I just want to point out again that #InterNetNews still works great for group discussions and #groupware, and is still capable of being used as a private #newsgroup server with #moderation and #federation via #NNTP.

#INN is still in active development, with v2.7.2 being released in June 2024. What it really needs is a great HTTP gateway.
