Man, I feel charged tonight! I'm at one of the local |
|
inspiration points were kids go to park, or at least they |
|
used to. The city has placed shipping containers in strategic plac |
|
to discourage such nocturnal activities, but I found a nice spot in |
|
between. |
|
|
|
What a night, what a view! What a sunset! It is 81F and we have |
|
a nice breeze up here on the hill and I got done just playing my |
|
guitar. |
|
|
|
I'm actually up here doing 2 gopher-related tasks for 2 great ideas |
|
by tomasino and solderpunk. One is trying to finish up a gopher |
|
request from tomasino regarding the cool zine he is putting |
|
together...the deadline is extended. [1] I was one of the |
|
people who actually forgot, so I am going to try and submit |
|
something for the topic of, "hammer," before the end of the |
|
weekend. (edit: it's actually due Saturday Morning, GMT :( ) |
|
|
|
The other task is for a request from solderpunk.[2] He had |
|
requested for the phlogosphere to go phlog off...grid, |
|
outside, somewhere I usually do not phlog. Well, this is the |
|
place and I am phlogging on the battery-powered AlphaSmart |
|
dana.wireless. The entry will be transmitted via Gemini PDA |
|
via my car's wifi, via ssh, live and direct to SDF from |
|
inspiration point overlooking the downtown grid of Los Angeles! |
|
|
|
The transmit mechanism on the dana is pretty cool. You |
|
connect to the Gemini via USB, you open AlphaWord, and hit |
|
the "send" button. The text in AlphaWord basically gets |
|
automagically typed to the Gemini terminal or whatever |
|
USB device is connected. The dana shows up as a keyboard and |
|
you can even use it as a USB keyboard on the |
|
Gemini/PC/Raspberry Pi/whatever. |
|
|
|
If you have a chance and you are reading this, I highly |
|
encourage you to contribute and participate in the |
|
gopherphun! |
|
|
|
OK, I'm gonna connect to SDF via ssh on the Gemini using the |
|
dana as the keyboard tethered via USB and hit "send" to |
|
transmit the entry...maybe at 9600 baud? |
|
|
|
p.s. I'm gonna edit this after with the links to the |
|
gopherphun. |
|
|
|
p.p.s. OK, I get my ROOPHLOCH 2019 participation badge, lolz: |
