it’s been unchanged because http got more popular.
there is a vocal part of the indieweb that does not want encrypted communication because it increases the system requirements, and because it disincentivises sending sending any sensitive information. i don’t really agree with that assessment but i do think there is something to not sending stuff you don’t need.
gopher predates http, of course it didn’t have certificates.
it was just the word meta on a country tld. i used it as a personal site, but they just did nothing with it.

well there are versions of miku that just output gibberish, as in random syllables. but that’s not the main product.

i’m inside my car almost daily and it’s only 14 years old.
i’m in a union country. we even have a national union for people who aren’t in any work that has its own union.
today marks five months without a job. my union-provided salary insurance runs out soon and i’ll be down to unemployment benefits. i’ve applied for about forty positions and gotten something like five interviews total.
maybe i needed a break though. i’m almost done getting my motorcycle license, i’ve gotten into 3D printing, i’ve gotten my teeth fixed, and i’ve had time to try two different medications to help my focus. i wish it would help with the headaches though.
5k ish. i had paid maybe 50 bucks total for it over all the years i owned it so it was a pretty good deal.
