Linkdump

Since moving to a home with some dirt space and a decent gardening space, I've decided to grow some edibles!

Over the last two weeks I've transitioned my site to use the Zola Static Site Generator, this is the first new post with it

I have a very specific gripe against 'Kitchen Sink' (KS) minecraft modpacks

Yeah It's a Linkdump but I didn't wanna call it that

First post in over 4 months. Honestly haven't even opened my note editor in that long as well. A lot happened in my life over the last 4 months, and while I've on and off wanted to write I simply haven't made myself do it.

To upgrade or not to upgrade, that is the question

How did we get worse than the outcomes in 2016?

Not the meme, I promise

More developments with my home server and the things I've been tinkering around with, plus a question about reverse-proxies!

A blogger I follow through their RSS feed at [82Mhz](https://82mhz.net/) posited a recent question to their readers and fellow bloggers. I found the question interesting and recently had a conversation with my mom about our different organizational styles and how we get through necessary but possibly unfun tasks.

Finally stood up my home lab/server and got modded Minecraft running! Also discussing future plans and asking for advice.

You say 'mid' but you type '7/10', why?

The story of how I started drinking the Linux kool-aid (sorta)

Smaller update today just cause I felt like I should write something light as I'm progressing in my building of the site.

Ramblings on the word 'hater' and it's connection to conspicuous consumption

How are y'all rocking pants in the summer?! And other brief thoughts on fashion blogging

Leave it to Trigger to absolutely fumble a solid world and story elements 60% of the way through the show. Y'all remember the DITFranxx aliens arc? Yeah 😐

I can summarize this manga pretty easily: it's an incel self-insert rom-com that is at best frustrating and at worst downright infuriating.

I wrote this way back on Nov 11th, 2020. This was around a year after I started learning about leftist essays, so brace for baby leftist talking points. I will probably write a critique of my own critique at some point.

I have not read the manga so this review is limited in scope. Minor anime spoilers ahead

This is a rant/essay I wrote back in July of 2021. There are a lot of errors and things I frankly disagree with in it. But as my first blog post on this site I wanted to archive it here.
