Website on pi


I spent some time on last night, setting up a mini web server on m Raspberry pi.
So running a http server on a Raspberry Pi.
For this project I am just using the python3-test-server package,
- Install python3-test-server
- Create a directory to hold some html files
- Change to this directory
- Create a very basic html file e.g index.html
- run python3 -m http.server:7800 where 7800 is the port you want to use

In the browser go to ip:7800

What I have done here, however is
I have, gone a little further than this:
In order to share my free software video dvd (and other resources) with people I:-
- Uploaded files to the server
- Created a web link to the iso file
- Edited my router firewall so it would allow a connection to the pi
I then shared the appropriate IP address with a friend via irc so he could download the ISO file, and it worked really well.

The decent(ralized) metaverse
This was posted to Mastodon on 30/12/2020
The metaverse is here: an immersive Web full of social virtual and augmented reality experiences. However, mega-corporations want to lock it down and wall it up to make another addictive, toxic ad-selling platform. We’re taking it in a different direction because we dream of a democratized new era of the Web where creators own their content, users own their data, and no single entity exhibits undue influence on the community as a whole.
We need to build web services free of tracking, free of ads, or other corporate nonsense, and respect user freedom and human right to privacy.
