• Free Synchronet hosting...

    From Marisag@VERT/AMIGAC to All on Wed Feb 24 00:49:11 2021
    Hello! Monthly reminder for February that I *still* have some free Ubuntu Synchronet servers I can donate again. \U0001f601 What's included? Linux 64-bit server with 2gb of RAM and 50gb of SSD. More than enough for a BBS. Servers are in one of a selection of datacenters (your choice). We also preload over 100 door games and BBSLink & DoorParty games if desired.

    Interested in working with you and hope to talk with you further! Be sure to check out our Synchronet doors at https://synchronetbbs.org/index.php/downloads/category/3-doors as well...

    If you are interested, go to https://SynchronetBBS.org/HostSplash and check out with the "offline" payment method so you don't have to pay. Be sure and put "free server" in the comments field so I know what you are wanting...

    Here's to Synchronet fans! I'm going to try and post this only once per month, for as long as I have them \U0001f61d This is likely to be the last free servers I have in the foreseeable future, so if you think you might want one please reply soon!

    Thinking about starting your own BBS? This is the place to start. Give it a try. I did and am a very satisfied customer.

    I'm curious about that method of inserting a Unicoded emoji. Where's that syntax come from?

    Can't speak to the encoding, but appears to be "grinning face with
    smiling eyes". Also curious as to what application is/was used.

    Interesting. What program did you cut *from*? I'm pretty sure SyncTERM didn't do that \U encoding of the Emoji.

    Could be the clipboard manager, since that is how I copy them. You select the emoji and it copies them to clipboard and then the clipboard gets pasted. As far as I know of course...
