#UsenetReborn sr.ht/~rek2/Usenet_Reborn/ pronto lanzaremos la versión beta1. Estoy emocionado de haber estado trabajando en esto durante un par de años, primero tuve que escribir la biblioteca #NNTP para hacer lo que necesitaba crates.io/crates/rek2_nntp y cuando eso estuvo mayormente bien, comencé a #RTFM sobre #RUST TUIs y comencé a jugar con #ratatui en mi tiempo libre entre mi trabajo de #hacking #ofensivo #seguridad Gracias a la gente de #matrix y #usenet por el control de calidad.

Improved threads logic and drawing now icons show on subjects and some more fixes! on #UsenetReborn sr.ht/~rek2/Usenet_Reborn/ soon will be releasing beta1 I am excited I been working on this for a couple years, first I had to write the #NNTP lib to do what I needed it crates.io/crates/rek2_nntp and when that was mostly ok then I started to #RTFM about #RUST TUIs and started to play with #ratatui on my free time in between my #hacking #offensive #security job Thanks to #matrix and #usenet folks 4 QA.

"Usenet Reborn" cliente TUI para Usenet y NNTP en lenguaje Rust, ¡fase alfa!
- sr.ht/~rek2/Usenet_Reborn/
Ahora que tengo la versión 1.0.1 publicada para mi biblioteca #NNTP llamada "rek2_nntp" (crates.io/crates/rek2_nntp), he logrado que el cliente "Usenet Reborn" esté listo para usar, nuevo cliente #usenet en formato #TUI usando bibliotecas #ratatui #rust. No soy experto en Rust, ¡los parches son bienvenidos para ambos proyectos! #hackers #culturahacker #descentralización

"Usenet Reborn" is an Usenet and NNTP TUI client in Rust language, in alpha stage!
- sr.ht/~rek2/Usenet_Reborn/
Now that I have a 1.0.1 released for my #NNTP library called "rek2_nntp" crates.io/crates/rek2_nntp was able to go ahead and get "Usenet Reborn" client in a usable stage a brand new #usenet client in #TUI format using the #ratatui #rust #libs not a rust expert so patches are WELLCOME to both projects! #hackers #hackerculture #decentralization

Today I cobbled together a weird construction where I managed to sent updates on our local newsnet (nntp) forum to rss and then have the feed announced as new posts on our IRC server.

And I feel like all this must have been solved before and easier but it's not like you can find this stuff doing a search anymore.

**Released rek2_nntp 1.0** a #usenet #nntp #rust library
I still need to polish some things this next month on a 1.0.1
- crates.io/crates/rek2_nntp
- git.sr.ht/~rek2/rek2_nntp

Hope someone will find it useful, I did got on my older versions still in alpha a bunch of downloads from crates.io I started this because I am also writing a #TUI usenet client and after that I hope to write something for android (this is harder for
me)

NEWSCARD: Decentralized, Encrypted Paste Bin via Usenet Newsgroups

NEWSCARD Publish and fetch permanent named records via Network News

Newscard creates a decentralized, encrypted, named record paste bin.

[git repo] https://codeberg.org/OCTADE/newscard (use most recent version only)

With a single command, name the card, snarf the file and encrypt it.

With another command, push the encrypted file to the public network.

With another short command, snarf a file from the network.

Only users knowing the name [key] of the record will be able to decrypt it.

If a strong passphrase is used to name the file, it will be very secure.

This is useful for quickly snarfing, encrypting, and publishing a text file:

$~: card enc [passphrase] [file]
$~: card put [passphrase]

It is useful for retrieving a text file with just a key:

$~: card get [passphrase]
$~: card show [passphrase]

If and when you want the general public to access the record just share the keyword.

Newscard uses nine (9) (NINE) layers of encryption with OpenSSL chacha20 cipher.

Newscard generates 9 each of: cipher keys, salts, key iteration parameters.

It would be nice if something like this were added to the ActivityPub protocol, such that keyword[@]host.url would do the same thing. Then secret text records could be stored securely for later retrieval or revelation.

The colors are inverted so that everything on the face is black except the lines which are white, like a charcoal cutout picture., giving it a retro digital appearance mixed with retro handicraft vibes.

Behold! The net cop gives expensive advice! You are basically requiring that I pay for yet another ERC20 cryptocurrency token just to send text messages.

From the Autonomi site:
"WHEN SOMEONE (A PERSON OR A COLLECTIVE) UPLOADS DATA THEY PAY A FEE TO DO SO."
"+1 Million tokens on offer for early contributors."
MaidSafe is credited as having invented the ICO. I wouldn't touch it or any of its descendant projects with a ten-foot pole.
"MaidSafe are the team behind Autonomi ..."
Didn't you learn from Maidsafe+Mastercoin ICO and ten thousand other ICOs already? The purpose of digital 'tokens' is to separate gullible people from their dollars or euros or yuan or rubles, providing in return something they could already have for free or so cheap it's nearly free. It appears that the people behind Maidsafe are also behind the crypto token you are suggesting, for merely posting text files. Get outta here!

Newscard has several selling points:

0. It's not for sale. Try that with Autonomi, Maidsafe, and a thousand others.
1. It is free, unlike your suggested cryptocurrency pump.
2. My solution is simple and elegant - naming small text files for retrieval.
3. Newscard uses existing infrastructure already in operation for decades.
4. Many mature client softwares and terminal emulators already exist for the task.
5. Newscard doesn't require investment or payment.
6. Newscard doesn't have an integrated, useless payment system.
7. Newscard is ANONYMOUS and uses The Onion Network by default.
8. Users won't lose their money when using Newscard.

And my Newscard solution doesn't require taking zillions of dollars from people who will likely never see a return on their token investment. Storage token sale schemes are a dime a dozen. I can't believe you think I have the credulity to swallow such a scheme.

For almost two decades running countless crews have claimed that they will, 'decentralize the Internet' if you give them your money.

Newsflash: The Internet already is decentralized. Decentralization is a basic part of the design of the Internet. It already routes around damage and censorship by default. Why do I need to pay for a crypto token for something that already exists? Decentralized Usenet has been in continuous operation for decades. I'm already using the 'decentralized Internet' for the Newscard protocol. I've been using the 'decentralized Internet' since forever! It doesn't need to be decentralized by crypto pump schemes. The Internet is already decentralized.

So we already have a decentralized Internet where data storage is abundant and cheap. And these token pumpers want to set themselves up as gatekeepers so we have to pay them to get the tokens to store our data. That is not decentralization. That is the essence of a centralized monetary gatekeeper!

You accused me of misusing Usenet. Yet I am only doing what people have done with Usenet for decades--posting encrypted messages. I'm not misusing Usenet. You're misusing my patience for cryptocurrency dumps and re-hashed token sales strategies.

I found a new Usenet interface: News Grouper.

https://newsgrouper.org.uk/

"This website provides access to the worldwide Usenet discussion system. Usenet was established in 1980 and may be considered the first "social network". It is organised into Groups for the discussion of particular topics and/or for particular geographical areas. Within a group, messages (also called articles, or posts) are grouped into discussion threads. A thread consists of an initial messages, followed any replies to that message and replies to the replies etc.. "
