I’m looking for information on how to embed a logotype on a X.509 PEM certificate, for the purposes of doing some tests with BIMI, using OpenSSL to generate a CSR. I have assembled all bits and pieces I need, except figuring out how to ‘convert’ the ASN.1 definition of the logotype-embedding extension into a so-called ‘configuration file’ that the OpenSSL CLI will accept.

This is a simple experiment which I did while trying to learn how to programme in Google AppScript, which allows data from a Google Sheet to be imported from the ‘outside world’, placed & properly formatted in a spreadsheet, and lastly presented as a nice graph. Like everything that Google […]
I have to say, I love this new feature of SL! I know, LL could have spent that time improving a gazillion things, but sometimes we also need useless but fun featurettes to play with… I have taken a look at some very complex plugins/toolkits that can string together several […]
As I patiently sit at home while waiting for one of my servers to complete its tribulations (long story!), I was briefly scanning some of the ‘old’ places in the SLogosphere (do people still call it these days?) where I used to hang around for inspiration about what would be […]
So I’m slowly — very slowly! — trying to catch up with things. Bear with me for a while longer. I cannot promise to go back to the routine of ‘several blog posts per day’ (like I did in, uh, was it 2005?…) not even ‘once a week’. It takes time […]
Rumours of my permanent disappearance, as always, have been exaggerated 🙂
I’ve tried to write a comment on the latest article on High Fidelity posted on Technology Review. But I’m long-winded and their system didn’t accept my comment. So here it is: Rosedale’s latest attempt at designing a virtual world from scratch shows that he has learned a lot of lessons in […]
Unless you have been hiding in a warp hole somewhere (like I am!) you might have missed the latest announcement from Linden Lab: Second Life: The Next Generation, or SL2, or — as I prefer to call it — NeXT Life, is currently being developed, and the first beta will probably appear […]
Of course this was a prank; happy April Fool’s Day, and my apologies to everybody! 🙂
I’m breaking my long period of silence (I should be working instead of blogging!) just to share with you some exciting news. Since Linden Lab introduced user-generated, custom animations in June 2004, people have been craving for a more ‘natural’ way of animating their avatars, without resource to pre-loaded animations. […]
The year was, oh, perhaps 2009 or so. In the middle of all the excitement about virtual worlds in general and Second Life® in particular, professional 3D designers were raising eyebrows at a new opportunity to sell their content. A virtual world with a million regular users who were engaged […]
[Update (again) Since 2015, the L$ Authorized Reseller Program has been cancelled] [Update 2013/05/07 6 PM GMT — Linden Lab has just announced the launch of the Linden Dollar (L$) Authorized Reseller Program] Software features turn into products Nine years ago, Linden Lab revealed a series of new features for […]
I wrote recently about my experiences in trying to fit a whole Web environment running WordPress into a tiny virtual private server. Well, from my notes, I sort of wrote a long-ish tutorial about it — who knows, it might be useful, if you’re considering leasing a virtual private server […]
