< Vornotron>
let's see. I should also rejigger the original author's folder layout, because it's built in a way that requires you edit your package path, which is dumb; the default package path has a way of handling this, just Do That Thing, gosh

I just want to say that Rust is amazing and can I just not code in C++ ever again

<@ErikMesoy>
I'm on a site that gives me normal website at www.example.cx and a Gopher-like folder browser at www.example.cx:70 and it feels like arbitrary magic to me. What keywords would I use to find something de-magicing it? Google seems to drop the colon from ":70" and return colon cancer results for "colon 70"

12:07
<&[R]>
And you're on a browser without gohper support?
12:08
<@TheWatcher>
ErikMesoy: port 70 is the gopher port, so the server probably is running a gopher server.
12:08
<&[R]>
`curl -ivv www.example.cx:70`? It might be just an HTTP server that's configured to look like a gopher server
12:09
<&[R]>
(curl does support gopher though, but you should see gopher stuff instead)
12:10
<@TheWatcher>
What to you mean by 'de-magicing'?
12:11
<@ErikMesoy>
[R]: The website offers a link that says it points to Gopher directly in case my browser supports it. Clicking the link does nothing in either firefox or chrome. Pasting the link into URL bar of firefox or chrome produces a search engine result for that tet.
12:13
<@ErikMesoy>
TheWatcher: It feels less like a wizard waved his hands and then magic happened. I have a vague memory that this kind of folder-like browsing used to be a lot more standard than it is now. I don't know what changed, I don't know how it works, I don't even know what I'm missing and I'm looking for a reference text on what kind of magic I bumbled into.
12:13
<@ErikMesoy>
I have tried reading about Gopher and I do not feel enlightened.
12:13
<&[R]>
You mean an auto-index page?
12:14
<@ErikMesoy>
Maybe?

Pretty much. Maybe I should just link site, not just discuss the abstraction: http://maistre.uni.cx:70/Texts/Philosophy

<&[R]>
Scroll down to the very bottom
12:18
<@TheWatcher>
Ah, they're running a gopher to http proxy on their system
12:18
<&[R]>
Basically their gopherd can respond to HTTP requests appropriately
12:21
<@TheWatcher>
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/7/x86_64/os/ - this is the equivalent sort of thing generated by a webserver doing auto-indexing
12:22
<&[R]>
Yeah, that's autoindexing

Ok "pixels" - vornonoi to the rescue; I can create the right number of points, duplicate 8 times to fill in the king's move blocks, then voronoi and relax, reduplicate, do a couple more times until I'm satisfied with how they look.
21:14
<~Vornicus>
then filter out clipped-away polys and I'll have a set of non-square pixels that I can tile.
