@ajroach42 @doot What? We have another celeb in here? 😲

@ajroach42 Now I need to find a version of the Enterprise opening that has the Smashmouth song over it.

I still maintain a non-gemini blog at https://ajroach42.com, and I'm still working out the exact relationship between the two, but for now they coexist.

I'll be more active on the capsule than on my blog for a little while, because it's new and I'm trying to figure out how I want to use it, and that means I need to *use* it, but the big bits will probably make it back to the regular web at some point (and, if not, there's the web proxy.)

@ajroach42 thanks! and oh yes I sure have 😂

If this kind of thing interests you, you can also hear what it sounds like to take music and crush it down to Floppy Disc sizes: https://ajroach42.com/tiny-music-from-the-american-public-domain/

@ajroach42 fuuuuuuuuuck terfs.

@ajroach42 The least fuckable people on the planet though :(

@DoctorDeathray IMO, go buy her stuff on bandcamp, but you know.

@ajroach42 the ocean! I want to explore the ocean, and since I can’t afford a science vessel I ended up making my own ocean exloration simulator 😀

@ajroach42 researching, playing, and making videos about old and obscure video games.

@ajroach42 very excited to mulch mulch mulch all winter and potato potato potato in the spring

@ajroach42 that's been my status quo for the past couple of weeks... hope you beat it sooner than me.

@ajroach42 Wild West stuff there. Thanks for giving me that bit to know to block em.

I'm still fiddling with my post template, and getting the server set up the way that I want, and migrating old blog posts in, and moving over all the other posts I've done on gemini in the past, but yeah.

Subscribe, if you do that kind of thing.

@ajroach42 That's a great post :)
I was a heavy usenet user during that era, and I don't remember any eternal september, I just remember when the RIAA or MPAA would complain and suddenly my local ISP would drop access to Usenet.

That was part of what inspired me to work at a community BBS in the mid 90s :D

@ajroach42 why would anyone do that?

@ajroach42 Yikes, you okay?

@ajroach42 Oh, wow. One of the big instances?

Along the way, though, I've been thinking a lot about Gemini, and I've started writing what will become a gemlog post about gemini and about where and how it does/can fit in to my life, and where and how it might fit in to other people's lives.

I'm not a big fan of the whole "use the thing to talk about the thing" meta discourse, but I gotta get those thoughts out in order to get back to the rest of it.
