Using Tailscale in builds.sr.ht

Mon, 05 Feb 2024 12:09:00 -0700

Using Tailscale inside your builds on sr.ht are a little trickier then you might expect, since it’s done in a way thats counter to how Tailscale outlines the process of using it in CI inside their own docs. I had to learn this the hard way trying to get my own .builds.yml configured for this very blog, as the server it’s hosted on can only be accessed outside of HTTPS via the tailnet, and am now able to pass this knowledge onto you.

Kentucky Fried Zero - Part Three

Wed, 24 Jan 2024 14:36:00 -0700

This is the third part of our analysis of Kentucky Route Zero. Original by Magnus Hildebrandt, translation by Josefiene Pertosa

Lateness, delayed projects and the kind of Faustian bargains one strikes in order to not have to give up. Just as we did in the previous parts, we will once again delve deep into the background of and inspiration for Cardboard Computer’s surrealistic adventure. This time it’s about mathematics, romantic poetry, Olivia Newton-John and why Heaven on Earth is almost always destined to fail. Before we go on, here is your obligatory spoiler warning. First spoiler: Olivia Newton-John will not make an appearance.

Kentucky Fried Zero - Part Two

Wed, 24 Jan 2024 14:36:00 -0700

This is the second part of an Analysis of Kentucky Route Zero

Original by Magnus Hildebrandt, translation by Dennis Kogel

Welcome back, welcome back, I hope you thoroughly enjoyed the short break, had some lively small talk and tried some of our criminally overprized canapés. But break’s over, so please head back to your seats, because the second act of Kentucky Route Zero is about to start.

Christine Emba: Rethinking Sex

Thu, 18 Jan 2024 15:32:00 -0700

I have a lot of thoughts about this book but I’ll try to keep this brief.

To start, this book has a very odd citation format. The author directly cites journalists, blog posts, magazine surveys directly in line, but then deeper resources, ie Academic Studies, Medical Journals, are cited at the back of the book - and not many are cited compared to how many Journalists are. This creates a problem where many times in the book the author will say something along the lines of “many studies show…” but not actually directly link to a study.

John Micklethwait: The Company

Fri, 05 Jan 2024 15:46:00 -0700

While occasionally simplistic and revisionist, The Company is a fascinating foray into the history of human organization, corporate profits, and human society.

An interesting reminder that things have not always been the way they are, humanity pushes forward through progress and chaos alike, and shows that even in the largest bureaucratic machines in the world, any choice can be traced back to an individual.

Musical equivalent of having a tooth pulled out at the dentist and then having to walk a mile home. Love it.

Favorite track: Bring me a berban.

I’ve had the ability to post chess games on this blog for a while but have found few games I have really wanted to highlight - this one is one I’m proud of.

Hopefully I’ll be willing to start posting losses I’m proud of, too.

Unlocking the Bootloader on the Kyocera 902KC

Tue, 05 Dec 2023 15:30:00 -0700

There have been mixed reports of people managing to unlock the bootloader on the Kyocera 902KC. I’ve done some extensive research on unlocking and rooting this phone and I’d like to outline all my findings here.

Being able to unlock the bootloader on the Kyocera 902KC would be a huge boon for usability in North America, as it would mean you could sideload the microG services, allowing you to utilize maps properly, as well as any apps that rely on Google Play Services in order to function.

Quality of Letters to the Editor

Tue, 01 Aug 2023 10:20:00 -0600

I find reading letters to the editor enjoyable. I find a lot of good debate springs up in that column, and on the flip side, I find it hilarious how poor comment sections can get. I wonder if this is due to the greater degree of curation by print editors versus the cacophony of the vox populi. I wonder if this is a problem that could be solved on the internet. Is the barrier for entry too low on a website for quality to remain consistently high?

Webmention Deno!

Thu, 06 Jul 2023 15:38:00 -0600

Wrote a webmention library for Deno, it was good practice getting it to pass the test suite at webmention.rocks.

https://deno.land/x/webmention@v1.1

The next step is writing out a CLI tool that can completely replace (the now defunct) webmention.app.
