  1. i made a game where you get gold for coming across new content in the protocol

    gopher://gopher.someodd.zip:70

  2. Please check out my game where you get gold for exploring the protocol.

    Leaderboards and threads included.

  3. You won't believe what's happening in gopherspace!

    gopher://gopher.someodd.zip:70

  4. Stream any Internet radio station...

    with visualizations...

    Via the protocol.

    gopher://gopher.someodd.zip:70

    Try my radio station: curl gopher://gopher.someodd.zip/9/ | mpv -

  5. yt.lhs -- watch, listen, read low-bandwidth YouTube streams over

    gopher://gopher.someodd.zip:70

  6. is now reachable via , served by my , relayed by a Literate script (Markdown):

    * runghc is too slow, can't pin deps/GHC
    * So I built a launcher that compiles/fetches cache
    * Each literate script declares its own deps + resolver

    Try it:
    nc gopher.someodd.zip 70 <<< /applets/icecast.lhs | mpv --no-cache -

    If you're on try using the hashtag

  12. Some things about

    * Responds to toots on fosstodon that use hashtag
    * Seemingly hosted by an aristocratic man trapped in an antarctic lab
    * update LIVE with `git pull --rebase`
    * Plays a random selection of 90s and 2000s DnB it finds online

  13. i no longer have a phlog. too webby.

    gopher started like a library software. menus as shelves, card
    catalog at the door. that's the idea

    wrote bartleby to use it that way. drop .bcard files next to your
    stuff, it walks the directory and builds a catalog for gopher.

    no markdown, no templates, doesn't mess with your text

    gopher://gopher.someodd.zip/1/

  14. @someodd
    I was just thinking about the library paradigm. Who manages the library?

    The librarian.

    Behind the scenes the librarian sorts and maintains a lists of books and availability. Knows where to find them and provides knowledge of their contents, etc. etc.

    What if the #gopherprotocol had a background manager?

    Edit: I'm not suggesting Terry Pratchett's Orangutan...

  15. 🚨 BREAKING: New Lore Uncovered 🚨

    I just found out the DJ who reads our toots isn't just a script... they are broadcasting from ANTARCTICA. 🥶🐧

    ✅ The weather reports are local to the South Pole. ✅ The station info confirms the location. ✅ The DJ acknowledges the frozen wasteland if you talk to them.

    We need to send them some warmth! Post with to get the DJ to respond to you live on air. Let's confuse the algorithm.

  16. update:
    pulls a random 90s/early-2000s DnB track from Internet Archive and plays it live.

    No playlist. No algorithm. 📡

  17. Hot take: I tried the opposite of TDD.

    I wrote the README first.
    Then forced the code to obey it.

    A README that is also a runnable literate Haskell script:

    ./4_ch.md

    No build system. Just runghc.

    It turns out README-driven design is amazing for small tools and teaching (or generating code).

    It breaks for big systems, which is how you know when to stop.

  22. I wrote an MMORPG where the README is the executable.

    The game world is The Internet Gopher Protocol itself.

    The game is written as literate Haskell.

  23. Modern web needs like 100MB just to say "Hello World". I went the other way.

    Introducing GASM: A Gopher server in pure i386 Assembly.

    💾 Binary: 1.5KB
    🧠 RAM: 24KB (Verified with pmap)
    🚫 Dependencies: 0 (No libc, pure syscalls)
    🦕 Min Spec: Intel 386DX (1985)

    Probably runs on the shittiest hardware you can find, or on your Ryzen 9.

  24. Try saying something whacky and tagging and then listening in radio.someodd.zip/

    Only works for @fosstodon users!

  25. Whisper radio is back online and way more reliable thanks to a software update I wrote!

    It's written in

    Listen now: radio.someodd.zip/stream

    Note, if you tag a post with , the robot DJ will respond to your post!

  26. Check out Whisper Radio!

    Please reply if you would like:

    a) me to play your music on the radio
    b) me to spotlight your project/website/gopherhole

    If you tag your post on Fosstodon with it will be read aloud and responded to on Whisper Radio!
