More blogging
A little further work on the ranty blog post.
Not much exciting there.
However, not having ready access to seeing the post in a
full CSS-enabled browser means I'm previewing it in
lynx(1). I don't find it a bad experience, and it helps
push me to focus on the content and semantic markup rather
than the presentation (which I can touch up later after
the #OldComputerChallenge)
And a little old-school gaming
I had a little fun playing some of the bsdgames
collection:
- While I enjoy playing atc(6), it's a real-time game, so I
can't pause it at life's many interruptions, and thus I
don't play it as often. But I got in a few rounds today.
- My mother taught me how to play cribbage(6) back when I
was in early elementary school, and she just spent a week
last month sharpening our daughter's cribbage skills. So
having it on the console not only provides a quick bit of
fun, but also brings fond memories of Mom.
- Similarly, my late father taught me how to play Mille
Bornes[3], so while I was feeling sentimental in my gaming, I
also fired up mille(6) for a few rounds.
