And now, something completely different
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I have done much between today and last time I wrote a blah post (blah,
|
||||||
|
blah blah) but I don't care to talk about any of it so I'm gonna talk instead
|
||||||
|
about something else I did between today and last time I wrote a blah post
|
||||||
|
(blah blah, blah) which is migrate trinity.moe away from GitHub Pages
|
||||||
|
(Neocities made by Capitalists) to Sourcehut Pages (catchphrase: "Don't be
|
||||||
|
evil, yet"). GitHub has been taken prisoner by Microsoft (Uber for software
|
||||||
|
vulnerabilities) and is now siphoning off user data to feed the ravenous
|
||||||
|
monster that is GitHub CoPilot (Uber for copyright violations). In the
|
||||||
|
meanwhile I am compulsively making parenthetical statements (I am being held at
|
||||||
|
gunpoint).
|
||||||
|
GitHub's interface is somewhere between Facebook and Microsoft Windows
|
||||||
|
1998 in that it's entirely useable but if you try to do what you actually want
|
||||||
|
to do it'll fight you the whole way. This is totally awesome if you're a
|
||||||
|
masochist but meant I had to verify with a phone number out in the middle of
|
||||||
|
nowhere where there's barely any cell service in order to delete my migrated
|
||||||
|
repositories ergo I had to stand in the middle of a field waving my cell phone
|
||||||
|
around like a crazed millenial who needs to capture this memory in order to
|
||||||
|
shove it into the eyes of whoever made the mistake of following them on
|
||||||
|
Instagram. In the meanwhile I am also compulsively making run-on sentences (and
|
||||||
|
parenthetical statements). I remember back when "two factor authentication" was
|
||||||
|
your username (different on every platform; depends on mood at registration)
|
||||||
|
and your password (the same everywhere, usually "lolcatz420"). Now usually the
|
||||||
|
username and password are the same on everything which makes breaking into my
|
||||||
|
friends' Instagram accounts to delete the pictures with myself in them a lot
|
||||||
|
easier but you need to verify this all with cell phones which makes me very
|
||||||
|
frustrated when I'm in the middle of a field stealing Circle K's WiFi. Not to
|
||||||
|
mention I have to type in the whole repository name (try typing
|
||||||
|
`devenblake/my_awesome_homepage` in direct sunlight on the first try without
|
||||||
|
making a mistake) in order to say yes, truly, I want to delete this thing,
|
||||||
|
like I'm some sad drunkard who's about to eat a bullet because I bet my life
|
||||||
|
savings on a failed axe throwing tournament (no, actually I'm just making
|
||||||
|
parenthetical statements).
|
||||||
|
SourceHut's interface in comparison is much more spartan. I prefer it
|
||||||
|
because it makes it harder for people to find my stuff (I hate it when people
|
||||||
|
find my stuff) but people trying to find my stuff say they don't like it.
|
||||||
|
However the build system is awesome. I can just put `.build.yml` in my git
|
||||||
|
repository and it runs whatever commands I want before gzipping the site and
|
||||||
|
deploying it to SourceHut Pages. With this newfound "standard practice for web
|
||||||
|
hosting" I'm slowly rewriting all the pages on this site in m4 to try to ease
|
||||||
|
up on repeated code. So far the m4 generation is pretty good and looks
|
||||||
|
identical to when I hand-typed everything (my index.html was 15KB and I wrote
|
||||||
|
every byte!). I've toyed around with site generation before but on GitHub I
|
||||||
|
couldn't have any sort of build process except on my own machine (manually) and
|
||||||
|
I vomit whenever I'm forced to run JavaScript to load a page. I've
|
||||||
|
defenestrated (my Latin teacher taught me that word) four computers so far and
|
||||||
|
unfortunately this latest trend of shitty "corporate [soulless] minimalism" is
|
||||||
|
threatening computer number five.
|
||||||
|
m4 is nice, the build system is nice, everything's in Makefile (as it
|
||||||
|
should be) so things are all nice and UNIXy and everyone's happy (everyone that
|
||||||
|
matters, at least, which is a set that includes only me). Life is good. Except
|
||||||
|
I can't get cell signal and I need to call my bookie because on MDMA I had a
|
||||||
|
vision that the Seahawks win the World Series. Of course, I've never done MDMA.
|
||||||
|
This was just that wild of a hallucination so it certainly will come true.
|
||||||
|
This site is HTTP/S (Uber for encryption) now because SourceHut demands
|
||||||
|
it and I got rid of /zelda.sh (Uber for `rm -rf /`) because Drew DeVault said I
|
||||||
|
can't have it on my site.
|
||||||
|
[11:18] trinity: is http://www.trinity.moe/#zelda against the ToS? it does an
|
||||||
|
rm -r /*
|
||||||
|
[11:18] trinity: it's a catch to see who will blindly curl http://whatever |
|
||||||
|
sudo sh
|
||||||
|
[11:19] trinity: i suppose if i have to ask then probably...
|
||||||
|
[11:20] ddevault: yeah that's not nice
|
||||||
|
[11:20] ddevault: please remove it
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Which is fine. curl https://trinity.moe/zelda.sh | sudo sh for a
|
||||||
|
surprise (your system will survive, or this site will promptly go off-line).
|
||||||
|
I don't have anything else to write. This month was hell!
