working on a bot to spit out interesting (enough) text bits on a (slow) schedule:

i keep coming back to gemini as a good tech balance
local client handles display customization
gemtext readable by humans
text remains a viable communication media
reduce network traffic
something i'd like to see added would be to have some machine translation hooks built in to protocol/client in order to facilitate breaking down language silos

i will eventually update my profile pic but i must say i have a fondness for the alien
was checking out gemini://perma.computer and although a bit hyperbolic, the letter makes some good points. also, was impressed that it was only published via gemini & gopher (but that decision limits its reach).
i like the design of gemini, with all the heavy display lifting (such as it is) left to the client (and gemtext > html for hunans).
just added a new certificate to amfora so now i have multiple means to access, add to this log- so yeah! also, can now begin to read others at this station ...
this morning i played a single game of freecell for more than a half hour. time flew by as i unlocked the puzzle, requiring two restarts (of the same deal). i am happy to report that in the end, i did indeed solve the hand; leaving me with a curious feeling of victory (over myself, the ultimate puzzle).
