Yojouhan.net now up! Main page is of course not used for much, but the video subdomain is where the meat is. Personally going to be mainly using it as an online archive, other users can do with it as they please.

Told you guys I could do something correctly... bet you all feel real stupid right now, talking down on the Rosco... uh huh, uh huh... sure thing... yes, apology crypto will do just fine.

Fuck the official documentation, and fuck a lot of the unofficial ones too, should not be this complicated to get something like this running. A deep thank you to this small guide for providing the correct way to configure everything.

I thought this was going to be a 1 hour job, but I forgot how much trouble I had setting up Peertube the first time. Horrible, horrible documentation. Have had to reinstall the OS multiple times after running into multiple deeply engrained issues present following all the recent instructions. Community forums aren't that much better. Hoping to get it done soon.

I'd like to take this opportunity to show that I'm (obviously elsewhere) alive and doing well. Pretty much half a year with no blog posts, and all the current ones on here were only made on that November of 2023. What the hell?!?!?!?! I coulda sworn it was more spread apart. I apologised for a 17 day absence?!?!?!?! Ritual suicide is the only apology I can offer to make good on all this now...

I finally got off the bad work schedule again. Like a fool, I bought more domains, which lead to very little here, and 月, and especially our dear departed Yojouhan, who never really came back. I've owned an equivalent server to reboot Yojouhan since about Christmas but I've just not taken the time to install all the software and get it online again. Oooof. What a waste of money! I'll do it today, and have another blog post announcing that its back up within the day. Go Rosco, go! Prove to the world that you're not just a lazy procrastinator!

On the bucket list,,,
>RSS feed was implemented! Although hasn't had a lot of purpose...
Other pages weren't updated within this time. Oops!
Including bio and info!
More files not yet added, although I guess this won't be too hard to do at all. I'll do it today as well.
>Temp file host implemented! Not for public use though, too much of a risk to have available to everybody, need to do further work on learning how to harden something like that.
No new backend shit really done.
>Site was debootstrapped to great effect.

Let's try to goonsite more in this 2024...

Oops, it's been longer than I thought. Site de-bootstrapped. I think the pages look better without it honestly. I don't remember why I implemented it, or chose to stick with the implementation. All looks a lot neater with a better general aesthetic that's truer to the sites spirit, I'm happy with it.

Some font changes too since I realised the place was dependant on MS Gothic which non-windows machines just wont have. For some reason the font just doesn't look the same when I supply the MS Gothic .ttf file, so going with Consolas for now.

The wall's gonna be restricted to only show 20 posts from now on, as it was getting a bit busy. I've reduced the font size range on top of that so hopefully there's less total overlap. Still thinking about the other stuff on the bucket list, have some free time this week so I'll try to play around with the site a little.

Spoiler: It didn't fuck it. Posting this to see if the cronjob ends up working.

Super happy with this so far, and gave me the chance to start following the RSS feeds of other blogs while cracking this. It's all coming up Milhouse.

RSS Feed added! Most of the kinks worked out, python script that I'll automate through a cronjob. Doubt it'll get any use but it was a nice exercise to keep me busy at work. Glad to get one off the bucket list so quickly.

No image on this post to show that it's possible and to test if this fucks my RSS somehow.

NEXT FOR GOONSITE.
>RSS feed.
>Movement towards a solid aesthetic between pages.
>Rewrites of bio and info pages.
>More files in lain repository.
>Learn how to create a temporary file host function.
>More backend shit.
>Less bootstrap bloat, simpler pages.

Many thanks to the members of the lainchan webring for their excellent sites lighting the fire to learn even more. I aspire to be on your level someday, distant kyoudai's...

I've been on a Riichi Mahjong kick in for the last couple of months. If you'd like to play through Mahjong Soul, my friend ID is 116543593. It's easy, and fun, so I encourage any newbies to give it a try.

Implemented functionality for an enlarged version of the blog image to follow the cursor when you mouseover it, since I recognise it can be a little hard to read the text, notably on >>51 and some of the older removed blogposts (yuck!). Doesn't really do anything with >>72's Mitsumi image due to its already small size, so please test it with this big image here.

Also a chance to display the anchors to different blog entries, I don't know how often I'll need to use these but they're pretty neat.

Thank you to my friend casino for inspiring me when I remembered how her old MySpace93 page solved this same issue.

月.co has been rehosted. Thankfully the cheap & reliable host I'm with was forgiving of the many, many times I forgot to pay the invoice. I'll maybe do something a la the lain page with the image displayed, but for the most part I'm going to keep the site very simple so it doesn't get fucked when viewed through in-app mobile browsers, which is the unfortunate fate that goonsite (still and probably always will) suffers. For now though, Mitsumi remains. It's been way too long since I read Skip & Loafer...

Edited some of the backgrounds on the pages to make them less harsh on the eyes and to improve readability of text. Info page is probably long due for a general rewrite as well. I've got a poor grasp on this stuff so please gimme feedback if you think anything is due for tweaking.

The site (and I) have been dead for a couple of months. Sorry. 月.co had its payment bounce a while ago and I failed to notice before it got blammed, and yojouhan.net was burning a massive hole in my wallet so it's being put in the stasis chamber for a little bit.

I learned a lot, especially on yojouhan, which I can hopefully put to good use here and on other sites in the future. I'll try to update the goonsite more and get 月.co reupped to act as a little Xen borderworld area connecting all my little things together.

I also died on Twitter (or X), I need to update my media thread, I'll force myself to do within the next 2 weeks. Probably won't ever be as active there as I used to, getting to the point where I can't give a shit about social media, but who knows.
