So I just published a regular old boring blog post and now I feel | |
dirty. I mean, not really, but I do feel something. I think it's | |
frustration or annoyance. You see, I wanted to open the blog with | |
a screenplay style intro, but it turned out to be painfully | |
difficult. I'm using Hugo which in turn uses markdown for | |
formatting and generally that's just fine. But in this case | |
I wanted to do some very specific text formatting that would have | |
been obvious and immediate in gopher but which took me five or six | |
iterations to figure out over there. | |
But it has a picture! :/ Meh, I guess so. More-over, the content | |
fit the theme of another blog post I wrote about Clue (this one is | |
about Guess Who, btw). It made sense to put it on the web. | |
I guess it once again illustrates why I prefer gopher. I can just | |
write stuff here and I'm done. In the world of HTTP I need to | |
massage stuff, play with themes, etc. Moops to that. |
