randogoth 8505b7e9e0 Three sites, one directory each
flux.vision, tobias.raayoni-last.com and randogoth.com. They were one site until
October 2026, serving four audiences from a single dated list, which is the only
format that can hold unrelated things at once.

flux.vision is recovered from the Wayback Machine, where it had sat since being
deleted in 2021: 90 articles, closed and maintained rather than updated.
tobias.raayoni-last.com is the professional record, 97 articles back to 1999.
randogoth.com is the technical work, 41 articles across six areas, served as an
ANSI bulletin board.

History starts here deliberately. The development history, the 266-row inventory
that records why each article went where it did, the Wayback pipelines, the
pruned articles, the source archives and the full-size images are kept beside
the repo rather than in it, so a clone is the web presence and not the argument
that produced it. REFACTOR.md is gitignored for the same reason. See README.md
for where that material lives, and keep it: the sort is not reproducible from
these three directories alone.

Each site documents itself in its own README, including the traps that cost time
and look like nothing when you get them wrong.

Title: md2txt Date: 2025-10-20 23:00 Category: MINIMAL Slug: md2txt Summary: Driven by my interest in retro, text-based systems, I built md2txt, a standalone CLI that converts Markdown into Micron and other niche formats such as Ancient Machine Book and Gemini’s gemtext.

As you might have guessed already I am a fan of retro technology and text based operating systems.

Expanding on my previous work on a converter from Markdown to Micron, the markup used by NomadNet, I created a standalone CLI called md2txt that can also convert Markdown into other arcane text formats, like Ancient Machine Book markup for DOS and also for the Gemini Protocol's gemtext format.
