So, after a little more digging, I found that what is displayed by finger
can be changed with SDF’s maint
command.
I may or may not have done this. I can’t remember for certain. It’s also possible that the default settings were different 10 years ago.
Have you tried emailing [email protected]?
@murph It was argued that you need to have a ~/.plan
file, but I do not have one.
I do not recall having had to do anything to enable it.
@siipale For current accounts, yes. I can’t answer definitively for legacy ones. I’ve only been on SDF a couple years now.
@siipale You could try reaching out to [email protected].
This is not true. I do not have a ~/.plan
file. I just double checked in case I set one up and forgot about it.
finger
still pulls some basic information without one.
@murph It does. Try finger jlamothe@sdf.org
(that’s me).
You can run the command finger username@sdf.org
to see if an account with that name exists.
Considering what group this is, I’m surprised I’ve not seen anyone mention “not essential to your salvation”.

Oh yeah, I can’t see any practical use outside of educational, but for that purpose, it’s a fantastic resource.
@secret300 bboard and com both take some getting used to, but they’re both pretty great once you do.
I’m certain that’s by design.
I love this one:
The fall appears hard. I’m sorry for you, your family, but agency got you here.
You mean the same agency that was supposedly A Gift from God? Classic Mormon doublespeak.
@shellsharks I’m working on ironing out some bugs in the code of my virtual sushi bar in #LambdaMOO.
I have edited the post to include a sixth part that recently came out.
…and I’m a level 40 paladin. What’s your point?
Wow. I guess I’ve got to give him credit for the hinesty, if nothing else.

I’ve heard good things about Hetzner, though I’d be remiss if I didn’t point out that SDF offers VPS services.
Maybe worth looking into. I wonder how much shipping to Canada would cost me.
