๐ AS400 RPGLE/COBOL/C++ I do those things. But most likely not here. Here instead, perhaps to discover more Gemini and getting back to a Smolweb.

A friendly reminder that Internet Explorer support ends tomorrow. The 27-year old browser is finally laid to rest/put out of it's misery.

Clear example of the difference between mindset of web browser devs and Geminispace devs. I don't want to encourage the use of Markdown instead of Gemtext, as that would make viewing content in other clients a worse experience. gemini://skyjake.fi/gemlog/2022-05_lagrange-1.13.gmi Had this been the web, a browser dev would have been "Cool! Now we can crush everyone else!" @skyjake actually stopping to think about other clients' devs is something you just don't see on the web anymore.

Inform7 is now Open Source! I don't if anyone is into Interactive Fiction, but I love Inform, been using it since Inform 6 in like 2005-something or another. If you ever wanted to write your own "Zork", Inform 7 is an amazing choice. http://inform7.com/

Had our first really warm day today. Broke out the lawn mower. Started drifting in thought while cutting. Nothing really, just in and out of different things. But I hadn't been in a state of just roaming around in my head since the pandemic. What I did find out is that I really need to dust out the old noggin. Clearly I need to pick back up some old hobbies.

Is anyone else having issues with gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space ?? It seems down at the moment.

I recently read Stack's newest post and hit this spot in it. If Gemini ever becomes a valuable entity, it will be seized by one or more corporations. It will be googleized, twittered, and facebooked (ahem, metaversed I suppose) overnight. And I think the answer is, we will find somewhere new. I think the digital landscape offers us the change to carve out new places in an endless sea of interconnected computers. Your own life, or your band's, or even your species' might be owed to a restless few-drawn, by a craving they can hardly articulate or understand, to undiscovered lands and new worlds. โWe Are Wanderers - Carl Sagan

I think Iโm fortunate. I live somewhere in the middle of nowhere with fiber optic internet. I get to be connected to the world, while looking out my window at hills and trees. Itโs an interesting feeling to be nowhere but have the entire world at fingertips.

I recently saw this posted about adding emphsis with the limited markup that gemtext provides. gemini://gerikson.com/gemlog/gemini-sux/e-m-p-h-a-s-i-s.gmi ๐ง๐ฎ๐ถ๐ค๐ต๐ค๐ฑ, there are math unicode that seems to be able to do roughly the same thing. ๐๐ถ๐ธ๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฏ๐ผ๐น๐ฑ. ๐๐ณ ๐ช๐ต๐ข๐ญ๐ช๐ค. It's not a perfect system, but I think it works well enough.

We are not made great by having a single great thing. We are great because we have a great number of things. The world, and perhaps, the universe seems to prefer heterogeneity. ๐ 1,000s of clone bananas and a single virus takes them out. ๐ญ One giant company and it is too big to fail. ๐ฒ A single kind of tree and a disease makes the land bare. But a diversityโฆ a diversity survives, a diversity promotes more diversity. And a diversity of web ๐โ promotes more diversity of the web.
