Since favicons are not part of the Gemini standard, you may not want favicons to display. Commenting out the above line of code will prevent favicons from displaying.
### Updates
-2021-04-27 I added a timeout variable in that is used with the timeout command to timeout connecting after a designated time to an unresponsive server. If the value for the variable is a number it is in seconds if it is a number followed by a m then it is in minutes.
-## Things to Do
-Currently the script checks the server for a favicon and the actual blog page, so it connects to a server twice. Currently, the script will check even an unresponsive server twice. I need to add the logic that if the server times out on the first connect to skip the second connect.
+2021-05-03 I added laced and lacedreader. laced will download microblogs but will not open them for reading. It is designed to be used with crontab. lacedreader is the reader to be used with the laced.
