MinusBrowser 2.30.1 is Published

Minus is like Gopher, but even simpler. MinusBrowser also browses Gopherspace.

MinusBrowser is written for Linux-based operating systems.

  • MinusBrowser now correctly displays the Tor version in the about:browser and about:server pages. This fixes a bug in the previous two versions.

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

To get MinusBrowser if you do not already have it, download this file from Codeberg.

https://codeberg.org/giXzkGsc/Minus-Protocol/raw/branch/main/MinusBrowser.tar.gz

There is no need to install MinusBrowser. Just download the .tar.gz file to your home folder and unpack it with

tar -xzf MinusBrowser.tar.gz

or use your favorite GUI software to unpack it. If you have a version of MinusBrowser earlier than 2.1, unpack the .tar.gz file into the same directory as your present MinusBrowser folder.

To follow the progress of the Minus Protocol Project, click on #minus-protocol or look at https://nerdpol.ch/tags/minus-protocol

You can download MinusBrowser from a terminal window with this command. This will work only if Tor Browser is running because it borrows Tor Browser’s SOCKS5 proxy. (Both Tor Browser and MinusBrowser contain their own copy of Tor.)

curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 -O gopher://mvxpelpxu2f7kzotb2s2t6fkmggvrd7qdg2wjs6waiyf2nbhkawux4yd.onion:1990/9/MinusBrowser.tar.gz

This works because all Minus URLs can be translated into Gopher URLs.

minus://something.onion/gopher://something.onion:1990/9/

MinusBrowser 2.30 is Published

Minus is like Gopher, but even simpler. MinusBrowser also browses Gopherspace.

MinusBrowser is written for Linux-based operating systems.

  • Updated to Tor 0.4.8.11.
  • Clicking on a file:// link to a missing file no longer fails. This fixes a bug in the previous version.
  • The about: pages have been improved, and two more have been added: about:computer and about:network.
  • The built-in documentation has been revised, and a new page has been added that summarizes the protocols and schemes supported by MinusBrowser. The three files: schemes.minus, keycmd.minus, and clicks.minus together now provide a quick reference for MinusBrowser.
  • Typing Shift-Control-j now finds words with spellings similar to the entered or selected text. This is the same lookup used by the editor window when you select a word and type Control-d.

To update to this new version, if you already have MinusBrowser 2.1 or later, just follow the instructions on your browser’s home page. You will not need to use a web browser to update.

To get MinusBrowser if you do not already have it, download this file from Codeberg.

A really fun podcast episode with https://mastodon.social/@Rushkoff@social.coop and other cool people talking about psychedelics, history of the internet and how tech bros are trying to monopolise psychedelics as an industry

https://www.teamhuman.fm/episodes/290-the-secret-history-and-unwritten-future-of-psychedelics-and-technology


At one point Dr. Julie Holland says something along the lines of "how about schools where one doesn't have to ask permission to go to the toilet when they need to", and I was like "holy shit, woah, yes, that is a very sensible reasonable no-brainer baseline humane thing, isn't it?" 💡 while feeling crashed by this sudden realisation in the saddest way possible 😓

Elon Musk, the right-wing anti-union billionaire owner of Twitter (recently rebranded as X), has cast his defiance of a Brazilian judicial ruling as a free speech crusade against censorship. Such framing is, of course, bullshit. It is instead a political campaign by a capitalist to use social media to reshape global politics in favor of the right. And it’s important that we all understand why that is.
