Interesting looking Pi Os

One thing I like about Hugo is how easy it is to expand its functionality with your own code.

For example was able to create a shortcode to embed Lbry.tv videos into a post in around five minutes.

First I created an empty file layouts/shortcodes/lbry.html which I pasted the basic embed code take from the share button on one of their videos.

<iframe id="lbry-iframe" width="560" height="315" src="https://lbry.tv/$/embed/this-new-fedora-powered-thinkpad-p53-is/097106eb68aebc90b33d83bb053467af942a8e20" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Then parameterized this so that the src url can be changed.

New retro game, looks worth getting a Commodore emulator setup to play it.

This style of game is one of my favorites, loved Boulder Dash and Repton.

With WFH since March I have been finding myself fidgetting more while on video calls.

Usually with a lump of Blu-Tak (other options are available), but got this delivered yesterday to keep my fingers busy.

One of the games I loved playing in my youth on my BBC Micro, I’m still rubbish at it to this day.

Game FAQs

Rediscoverying Inkscape vector drawing application after a few years, its even better than before.

Had a lot of fun converting some of my doodles into vector line art.

Found this useful Android Mark down application.

Markor it has a Hugo template to use for blank documents which is useful.

It’s on FDroid so it’s easy to install o on my kindle as well.

Then use Github website to upload the new file to my Hugo blog repo.

Testing github Web upload.

Update

Edited on mark down app, uploaded again via github web page.

Found mGit App which looks like it would do the job of repo management on Android.

First trial not so good.

Wondering if its an issue with having MFA enabled on my Github account, although using my personal access token instead of the password should work I would have thought.

I’ve submitted an issue on their Github page, so wait and see what they say about it.

Trying to think of a way to be able to post content from my Android devices (phone/ Fire Tablet).

Basically would need just the following;

• Text editor for creating markdown for the post.
• Git to checkout, commit and push updates to GitHub.

My Travis CI pipeline would then handle the publishing.

Finding a text editor app isn’t a problem there are any number of them on both Google Play and Amazon Kindle stores which could be used.
