            the internet was
             never more than
           hype whose success
             presumed a far
            higher quality of
            being than human
              would be the
           primary participant

            i love my http[s]
            / gopher (lynx),
            gemini (gemget),
           and nex (nc) based
              browser whose
            interface is less
           (yes, the command)
             in a loop that,
           when less is quit,
           takes in a command
            or a number - the
            latter associate
             with a link on
                the page.
        
                so clean

                bullshit

               it's really
              not that hard
              to write the
            means to monitor
        http[s]/gopher/gemini/nex
              monitors that
           periodically check
             for change, and
            report when found
        
              'lynx -dump',
              'gemget', and
               'nc' do the
             heavy lifting -
               aka getting
        
             'diff' detects
              change from a
              previous get
        
            'less' views the
            latest if there's
               been change
        
               no need for
              feeds/readers
        
              it's hard to
               imagine one
             who can't roll
            their own getting
            truly high on the
            internet, because
           most of the fun is
            in the making it
            work for oneself

           i want to interact
            with others until
           about three seconds
            after they start
            talking / writing
        
           when i'm invariably
            quickly reminded
            the impossibility
               of separate
              conceptuality
               contexts -
               aka minds -
           communicating with
            merely said-to-be
             common symbols
