https://codeberg.org/5225225/microfortune/src/tag/2248 update on the fortune thing: this works (2248 bytes) though is a pain in the ass to compile with nixpkgs (rustup needed both for build-std and nightly, didn't really feel like involving fenix or whatever into its system flake to build this so it's just made it work (on the main branch) with a standard stable rustc, without no_std.

but the premise that rust can make pretty god damn small binaries and not be miserable to work in is demonstrated.

now time to build up a collection of robot/drone/various Gender(tm) quotations. and since it implemented comment support in this, it can cite sources.
