cybah_rig_v3
The cybah_rig is this thing I cobbled together that would allow me to have a portable, pseudo full-immersion Linux shell environment. It is comprised of mostly off the shelf components and stuff I had lying around the lab. The main components are a Raspberry Pi 0w, an old Olympus Face-Mounted Display (FMD), folding USB keyboard, and 5 volt USB battery for power. I use it in a folding zero gravity reclining lawn chair with a Carhartt ambient light shield.
The cybah_rig has been updated to version 3. m0ar here:

Glad to see y'allz here! I gotta take more screenshots of the nice builds on the server. Hope to see you on the server!
Panzinger Z
Here is Panzinger Z (Panda-Z was already taken.) Part panda, part Mazinger Z. Screen shot was taken 20230421. Part of my base on the SDF minecraft server. Near -166,117,-651. Enter through the shelter in the basement. You should come visit and sign the guest book!
When I used gopher back in the day, it was meant for consuming information, like at the university or the library. There was no contributing to gopherspace unless you were part of the institution that had the server and usually that information was for official business of that entity. Any discussion, if any, was through email, usenet, or on a BBS.
Having said that, when I started participating in the gopher of now and had my own place to phlog, I came across the same question. Then I realized that I was trying to treat gopher like the web of now, which has a place for comments and discussion, if you wanted to add that to your web page. Web 1.0 was mostly static web pages with no comments or discussions. Feedback was usually via email. I think that since the use of gopher ended basically where Web 1.0 started, it just stayed there with static pages to be consumed, not really meant to be commented or discussed. This works for me since this is the web I enjoy, not so much the web of now. Even my web page is done the old way in a text editor with static html pages.
There have been workarounds in the gopher of now, but they are usually one-off solutions. If I need to phost a comment about something I saw in gopherspace or the phlogosphere, I will phost in my phlog and reference the original phost as a footnote. That seems to me to be the common practice and works for me for the time being. Hope this helps.
