Yesterday, I took a double surfski with a
less-sporty fellow. Nevertheless, it was quite
fun. Thank you winds and waves!

Paddled a carbonoly zest on rough waters yesterday
Oh, boy, what a blast!
I feel like 2 inches taller now!

Two months already! And the space firefly
keeps flying, all systems shiny.

I don't know how true the YT videos
about how Europeans are not travelling
to the USA anymore.  But the USA feels
scary, I mean all the hassle that travel
is and then, you find/fear even more.

These days it seems I enjoy creating
much more than gaming.  I even enjoy
sports more than computer gaming.
Who'd say?!

2025-05-21 06:17:58
And now, after having "solved" the
atom on gopher issue, I'm considering
not having an atom feed.
Go figure!

2025-05-20 08:57:05
I'll probably slow down after a while
I'm mostly editing old stuff, but that
will run out, eventually.

2025-05-19 06:28:55
These days is very hard of having
evidence of anybody reading your site
bots... too many bots

Is this the true cyberpunk manifesto?

Just gave my website home page a gophermap,
kinda,

2025-05-14 20:32:09
When I read the phlogs on gopher.club...
I feel
so
wee

2025-05-14 13:26:50
Another sdf server incident.  What's going on? :(

2025-05-13 09:22:20
Considering doing a basic atom feed reader
for feeds hosted in gopher.  It won't be
superpopular but sounds fun, and it could be
useful to some of us. Something easy to install,
maybe in Python...

2025-05-12 08:07:07
Just added a fantasy map on the storygames
menu. It took some work on inkarnate, but
I kinda of like the result.

New rule for Space Firefly:
Entries shorter than 100 words go to this tiny log
Entries longer than 99 words go to the phlog
Easy!

2025-05-09 17:33:46
Added new chapters to my new ttrpg:
health and magic!

2025-05-07 08:08:45
You might notice I'm working in some ttrpg rule-system.
This is mostly for my own fun at creating them, but
feel free to enjoy them when they're done :)

2025-05-05 07:23:57
Those who say Gopher is dead haven't
been in sdf.org for a long while. If
ever!

2025-05-04 11:34:36
I'm arpa now, btw!

2025-05-04 11:33:38
I've posted twice on my "Heart of Valor" story.
It's a relatively small one, being 25-ish pages
long, so it can be read in a couple of sittings.

2025-05-03 09:34:41
Thinking about the recent outage in sdf.org,
I decided to finally apply for arpa membership.

2025-05-02 11:29:21
Had a look at gopher.club and it looks like
there's been a swelling in our ranks!

2025-05-01 14:56:02
Well, it seems sdf had some mantenience
to do.  It's funny how fast you can learn
to love this little thing.

2025-04-29 11:03:41
OK, I've also simplified the
"root" gophermap.  By addind modification
dates to each entry, there's no need for
a separate "new entries" section.  Dates alone
should make that obvious.

2025-04-29 08:34:59
Making my gophermaps simpler. Not too
minimalist, but I'm removing the...
funny parts except on the main gophermap.

2025-04-28 08:03:30
Recently, I got two nice letters (emails) from
nice gopher/gemini people. Thank you all!
(I need to write to other people in the smol
nets like right now)

2025-04-28 08:00:43
Oh, dear, I might got the
PicoCalc craze!
=> https://www.clockworkpi.com/picocalc
It has LORA, it can be coded in BASIC
Its batteries should last for ever...
I need a cold shower.

It's Space' Firefly's first month.
And we're still flying!  The 'verse
has been kind to us and we're happy.

Two cups of Mudder's milk for everybody!
(But kids, sorry kids)

The best way to oppose an extremist
is .not. to become an extremist of
the opposite kind. Command your passions!

2025-04-24 06:23:00
Please contact your local
gopher-er today. It means you care.

2025-04-23 13:19:07
It looks like sdf.org had a bit
of a flu. Did I miss an update notice?

2025-04-22 08:42:49
I was able to revive the old draft of
one of my gamebook, only to find I mustn't
finish it. Oh, the irony!

Gopher's two souls theory
Thesis: There are 2 souls in Gopher
* Ancient content from eons ago, preserved as it was
* Nice people posting new hand and heart made content

He's risen indeed!
Hallelujah!

Price perspective: a firefox addon
Have you considered how $100 look
to somebody else in the world? A
chinese factory worker, a billionaire?

It's all a secret but I'm working
on single page blog. It's all in
Spanish, and it's in

Luciérnaga is Spanish for firefly :)

"If you're not changing your mind, it's likely you
aren't having an argument (or hanging out with the
wrong people). While it can be fun to change
someone else's position, it is also a gift to
learn enough to change ours."

Toddler"

Considering going arpa, so I can go
more exciting things here. Games
perhaps, not sure.

2025-04-13 08:10:38
Just to inform you of my webpage,
mostly sharing my own hyper-fiction of
a juvenile, fantasy nature
Bosque Protector at
https://bosque-protector.com
All in Spanish, certainly!

2025-04-12 12:05:33
Thinking about ditching my storygames
section. I'm simply bad at writing fiction
in English and it takes too much time for
something that might be of little value to
you.

Just started a new section to share
my attempts at coding, starting with
a, sort of, pseudo-random number

It's funny how the small differences between
Linux and BSD can cause so many headaches!
It's good exercise for the brain, though :)

Watched Chaplin's "The Great Dictator" yesterday.
The final speech that, in other times, I felt basic,
almost naive, was deeply moving and a great reminder.

Go watch it. We do live in interesting times.

Just created a tiny script to generate my dates
so I can read them easily in 'ed'. Scripts are
the way to go with ed. The one line is
date "+%Y-%m-%d %T"

We're living in interesting times; hoping for
boring times.
