| | | | | Shortly after I set up my gopher hole last year, I downloaded all of the MOD files off of textfiles.com thinking I would mirror them on my gopher site. I decided not to once I had finished the 54 gig download of over 140,000 MOD files. The directory structure of the downloaded files was going to make it a little cumbersome to be useful on a gopher site. As an aside, I can't remember the exact details, but I pretty sure I used wget, or maybe it was curl, to grab the files; either way it was easy. I kept the files and have enjoyed listening to them as background music on several occasions since then. | |

| | | | | I often need to view a bunch of static HTML files in my browser locally, and I often need to open them with http:// rather than file:// URLs so related CSS or JavaScript files load correctly. Luckily, Python provides a simple web server, and most Linux distros include Python. | |

| | | Maya narrates an annoying annectode involving iMessages. By buying my mother a gift, I have now made it so that her contacts with iPhones, who all have her email saved, will - by default - send her messages that she cannot access on her phone, and they won't know that they're doing this when trying to text her. This seems terrible. This is terrible. I recall I had gone through a similar frenzy when I had switched from my iPhone to Android. | ||
