Feel me
Touch me

 Fly like a song, fly while you're singing
 A song without you is a bird without winging
 Some city flights leave in the morning
 Some city nights end without warning
 Can you hear me call?
-- Betty Thatcher (Renaissance)

Come on and touch me
When we're dancing
You know you've got that loving touch

If you didn't notice from the Grex problems item, Dan Cross upgraded Grex's
OpenBSD to version 6.1. Grex was inaccessible for a few days during this
process. Many applications have been updated to newer versions. If something is
missing or not working right, post about it in the problems item and let staff
know.

FYI: I've rewritten the `menu` shell. As far as the user interface is
concerned, this version is a more-or-less faithful recreation of the
previous version, though there are some minor differences in some of
the details.

This version is written in `go`; the older version was written in C and
was something of a nightmare.

FYI: I'm going to write about Grex a little bit in the `agorage` conference
(conf:agorage). Check it out if you're interested. Or don't.

"conf:" is a neat trick, like "resp:".

Are there any other tags like that we can put in bt posts? References to
to responses in other items and items in other conferences would be us
useful.

Are such tags documented anywhere? I've searched the bt documentation 
on unixpapa.com but haven't found anything.

There will be downtime tomorrow as I attempt to migrate Grex to
different hardware. I need to repurpose the hardware Grex is currently
running on, and need to figure out a way to move the VM. 


#40 of 54 by tonster on Fri Sep 21 16:08:30 2018:

The transition to the other hardware was completed successfully.
Apologies for the downtime.


#41 of 54 by papa on Fri Sep 21 18:50:25 2018:

Thanks for taking care of the old girl. ;)

May I ask on what hardware Grex is now running? Is it in a VM?
 


#42 of 54 by tod on Mon Sep 24 11:32:31 2018:

re #41
My guess is raspberry pi 3  :)


#43 of 54 by kentn on Tue Sep 25 18:22:19 2018:

Thanks for taking care of Grex, Tony!

M-Net and Grex both became VM's several years ago. They exist today on
an HP bl495c G5 server blade.

Millenium Falcon

Good job for keeping grex alive.
Thanks for the hard work!


#47 of 54 by tod on Tue Jan 18 20:08:30 2022:

Yes, Tony! Hats off

GREX is an even more hidden gem of the net than Tildeverse. I
really like this place.


#49 of 54 by papa on Wed Feb 23 00:37:30 2022:

Indeed, it is. A little too hidden and underused.

We need to get a wordle-like game running the Games conference.  It's
similar to the 5-letter match game.

Well, well, well cyberspace is alive and well :) Howdy folks! Greetings from
the InfinitelyRemote ;)

There goes the neighborhood


#53 of 54 by papa on Wed Feb 23 23:47:19 2022:

resp:50 You mean like we used to do 20 questions with one "master" who
thinks of the word and the rest of the players making guesses to which the
master reports results (letters correct; letters used in other position)?

Oh, i thought this was like a 'safe' word
