A Pelican generator that writes a capsule beside the HTML build: plain
Markdown plus per-directory .itsybitsy.toml sidecars, which a protocol daemon
converts per request to gemtext, XHTML-MP, WML or plain text.
The obstacle was recorded in the README as "smolweb reads YAML frontmatter
while Pelican uses bare Title: lines". Both halves turned out to be wrong:
itsybitsy parses no frontmatter at all, by design, and metadata lives outside
the document. So the transform is not a translation between dialects, it is a
removal, and a protocol daemon stays ignorant of one static generator.
Nothing in plugins/smolnet.py is specific to this site. Every difference is a
setting and every setting has a default, so another site enables it with
PLUGINS = ['smolnet']. It sits at the repo root for the same reason
flux.vision reaches into tobias.raayoni-last.com for lostimages.
Index entries are emitted as link-only paragraphs rather than Markdown lists,
which is not a style choice: the gemtext renderer prints a bare => line for a
paragraph holding nothing but links, and a bullet *and* a => line for a list
item, so a list would publish every entry twice. Gemini clients number link
lines themselves, so the board's dial-an-area-by-number idiom survives into
the capsule without emitting a single bracket. The trade-off is in the
docstring: the text renderer reflows such a run into prose, which costs
nothing here because randogoth.com is not getting Nex or Gopher.
Also drops a Zemanta tracking pixel that came in with a 2012 blog import and
is live on the site today, firing a third-party request on every view of that
article. It would have been worse in the capsule, where an image becomes a
visible link line advertising a dead tracker. It was the only one across all
three sites.
Verified by serving the output with the real daemon: 41 articles, 2 pages, 6
area indexes and an archive, no metadata surviving, no {filename} left,
trl@posteo.net revealed on Connect where the renderer would otherwise have
dropped it with its enclosing HTML, images served as image/png, and the index
rendering as a clean run of => lines in gemtext and as XHTML Mobile over HTTP.

i watched the sequel of Crank last night, without any expectations in
|
||
quality and plot - but i was stunned! the video camera work is faster
|
||
and shakier with fast cuts and beautiful fish-eye sequences - like a
|
||
music video of aphex twin or squarepusher. the music is hysteric and
|
||
ingenius with cranky sound effects and a more than fitting musical
|
||
selection. all in all it's a fine piece of 90min video-art with
|
||
adrenaline and testosterone overdose...
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
the flick is peppered with graphical elements and typographic
|
||
delicacies, live-visuals style kaleidoscope effects and colors and
|
||
contrast always crisp to the max. there are psychedelic sequences,
|
||
illustrated sequences, super8-aestetics, a really absurd long shot
|
||
tribute to godzilla movies.

|

|
||
|
||
|
||
the characters are exaggerated comic heroes reminding me a lot of robert
|
||
rodriguez archetypical figures. couldn't be better! the appearance of
|
||
david carradine as a life-craving horny old chinese triad gangster
|
||
drooling over busty young whores is hilarious considering his current
|
||
absurd death.
|
||
|
||
if you have strong nerves, are used to bloody gore mayhem, explicit
|
||
language with funny brit accent and a b-movie fan, video or VJ art geek,
|
||
you will definetly enjoy this flick as much as i did.
|
||
|
||
5 out of 5 stars!
