Short notes, all the Cool Personal Homepages, screenshots, links.
My first distro
Just discovered #myfirstdistro and here's mine: #Suse #Linux 6.0 - It happened at a second-hand shop for hard- and software; between Data Becker and MS Frontpage boxes there was a copy of Suse. The back-cover had a screenshot of what looked very similar to Chigago shell, just a little different. It was #KDE 2. That was when I first realised that there are obviously other systems to operate PCs. I bought that box for 5 Deutsche Mark. 🙃 One week later I managed to successfully start #XFree86 😅

Kristall browser
I recently stumbled upon Kristall - "a browser without support for css/js/wasm or graphical websites. It can display user-styled documents in several formats, including gemini, html, markdown, … provided by a server via gemini, gopher, http, finger, …" As it supports not only Gemini & Gopher, but also HTTP/S, it's a nice way to view a stripped down version of the web. 💙

"If you have to ask "Why?", then the answer probably won't make any sense to you either." 😅 https://users.monash.edu/~damian/papers/HTML/Perligata.html
PS: Damian Conway, the author of this package, also wrote "Object Oriented Perl" (Manning, 1999), a programming book I really enjoyed! https://users.monash.edu/~damian/papers/HTML/Perligata.html
Viktor Klemperer - LTI
Diese Ausgabe der LTI ("Lingua Tertii Imperii", Sprache des Dritten Reiches) habe ich vor etwa 20 Jahren aus einem Schrank in der Schule geklaut. Behandelt wurde das Werk nicht. Es hat mich nachhaltig beeinflusst - vermutlich mehr als jedes andere Buch. Brandaktuell..

TIL GNU units exists
Did you know there's GNU units? That's something for the daily toolkit.
