I’ve created a new little tool to help run and manage scripts in a folder tree, called scriptura.

Recently, I’ve been noticing more linguistic misunderstandings and it prompted me to make changes to how I communicate in order to reduce the likelihood of such misunderstandings.

I decided to create a search tool for NixOS, nix-darwin and home-manager options and packages, potentially with more sources to come.

On a router, I have dnsmasq and kresd as DNS servers.

I switched away from Zola and made my own static site builder that uses only HTML templates.

I managed to get NixOS running on my NanoPi R5S (FriendlyElec Wiki).

This website is now hosted on three continents.

I wanted to set up a server so that any local email (e.g. generated by cron jobs/systemd timers) would be forwarded to an external address, regardless of the user.

I had been using gogs for about a year.

I recently encountered ghq, a tool for automatically organising VCS-backed projects automatically.

I’ve not made any posts for quite some time.

I recently discovered cedit, which provides some structural commands for editing c-like languages.

I use cask for managing the dependencies of my Emacs configuration.

I use Projectile for working with projects in Emacs.

I finally got around to making a website.
