Good read by @jinscho, I was there too for the early web era he describes, and I (obviously) agree.

I am interested in getting into writing.

One thing I would love to make is an RPG zine. Have a blog, put homebrew, worldbuilding, rulings advice, little thoughts and articles and then take those blog posts of mine and self-publish a zine. Really just make one for myself. If I sold it, I would sell it for the cost to print, staple, and mail.

I would also like to write about cybersecurity. Should this be one blog or should it be two blogs?

Separate blogs for TTRPG and Cybersecurity
One blog to rule them all?

I'm having a course about digital communications this semester. Guess who will be writing about ActivityPub.

Occasionally, I must traverse deeply nested data formats, typically encoded in JSON, to extract the bits of information that are required to shed light on specific subjects of interest.

To better comprehend which pieces of data are significant, it is often advantageous to pivot the data in the JSON files into wider and longer tabular data representations:

It took me way too long but this page is finally part of the IndieWeb Webring again.

so now it's my time for the official #introduction

hi, i'm alex, an east europesn ghost haunting the lands of nether and i run this place. fairly sure some of you already know me on fedi, but if not then keep reading

i'm a trans guy on the internet. i am often described as a devil's advocate or a contrarian because i tend to defy people's expectations and views of reality.

i don't take academia kindly and i believe it makes you out of touch with reality, the "low classes" so to say. my rough and terrible life circumstances molded me into who i am today (and i'm not entirely saying it's good, i carry a lot of trauma with me that possibly will never heal) and i believe it's rarely possible to fully comprehend one's suffering without going through a similar thing

i am also shamelessly gay on main and not afraid to admit to liking men, after all it's the most masculine thing one may like. if i don't yearn for men then the world has fallen apart

i also make art! due to my life circumstances and disability that was my source of income (but more often than not i wasn't earning enough to cover even basic cost of life) - and i honestly wish i could live without worrying for survival and funds to just devote myself to drawing i swear!! with that being said if you're a big fan of generative AI you can frankly fuck off because you are not welcome here

i also run a website at hofnarretje.eu where i post my art mostly. i have a guestbook, be my guest to sign it!!

i take interest in mental health strictly from mad perspectives. i think mad pride deserves more attention than it gets and that sanism is a hugely accepted form of ableism that not many take seriously.

at the time of writing i'm still not there but i look forward to starting a new life in the netherlands, given that i've already been autistic over this place and started learning the language..yeah!! i hope it goes well!!

here's tag spam for reach, including other interests of mine that i haven't mentioned:

#queer #LGBT #transmasc #transman #disabled #disability #ActuallyAutistic #HardOfHearing #MadPride #MentalHealth #ArtistsOnFedi #Art #VideoGames #Nintendo #Pokemon #WebDev #IndieWeb #Furry #Cats #AUDHD #PTSD #netherlands

If you wanted to share #music with random folks on a site, but don't want to link to anything paid nor to youtube, what would you use?

I guess uploaidng & <audio> tagging an .mp3 will end with a not very nice letter in a few week but it seems the best option?

Finally, somebody said what I thought for a long time. I am not #IndieWeb, I just crave good ol’ days when #HTML was enough.

#SelfHost #indieweb #SmallWeb #ngrok #picosh #tuns

So can you use something like tuns or ngrok on a VPS to safely serve web content on like a raspberry pi in your home network with the wider internet without setting up port forwarding and dynamic DNS? All other concerns for self hosting still apply naturally.

Would be nice to be able “proxy” a self hosted blog from my house to get the advantages of self hosting but restricting access into my home network.

Someone is preaching pure doctrine here 😅 But somehow I like it :blobcatgooglyshrug:

Another bytetower.social update:

https://search.bytetower.social gives you access to #yacy, the community-based web search project.

I'm currently compiling a list of domains or topics for which yacy still lacks content.

So if you use the search and don't find the results satisfactory, let me know and maybe we can help to improve the yacy search experience!

If the most useful thing I achieve this Bank Holiday Monday will have been to make it easier to post short geotagged notes from my mobile to my blog (and Mastodon), it will have been a success.

This has been a test post. Feel free to ignore it.
