So that's it. Twitter reached a deal with Elon Musk. There's not much to say that hasn't already been said. I want to believe Musk will make improvements, but I think whatever improvements he makes will please the wrong crowd of people. Twitter has a monopoly on the type of platform it provides, which puts him in a unique position of power, especially with all the fuss US lawmakers have been making about free speech on Twitter and elsewhere online.

I can't seem to find a healthy way to use TikTok, so I just shouldn't use it at all. I first installed it during the height of the pandemic in 2020 and have since uninstalled and reinstalled it at least 4 or 5 times. While there is a huge load of shit on the platform, there are also cool and interesting creators on there, lots of funny jokes, shitposts, and memes, and even videos where I legitmately learned something! However, short-form video scares me as a social media format because of how addicting it is. TikTok's algorithm in particular is so good at showing you what you want to see that you can't help but scroll. It got to the point where I was reaching for my phone and scrolling TikTok every time I had a free minute. On my worst days, this would sometimes last hours. Just scrolling. Filling up my brain with content of dubious quality and intentions. TikTok is also experiencing a rise in Internet discourse and outrage culture on the platform. Due to the short virality cycle of content on TikTok, it seems to be speedrunning the same discourse Tumblr did a decade ago. It's exhausting. I'm tired of all interaction online being subject "discourse". I'm tired of hot takes. I'm tired of hearing the unwanted opinion of every random online.

My favorite thing to do is nothing. Just sitting idle, observing the environment (or more likely, my apartment wall). It's fun. I just get to think. Like David Puddy on a 16 hour flight. The world requires constant attention these days, so don't forget to take a break.

I've been out of commission and stuck in bed for the past few weeks, and this weekend was the first time I could sit in at all in a few weeks, so I wanted to do a small project. There has been some chatter about self-hosting cloud services in the [Yesterweb forum](https://forum.yesterweb.org/viewtopic.php?p=619), and I decided I wanted to give it a shot.

The last time I played Cyberpunk 2077 was shortly after release in late 2020 on the PS4 version, which was a [rough experience](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InNgPtzTpgM), to say the least. I had been excited for the game since the announcement almost ten years ago now, so the disappointment was quite painful. As a result, I left the game alone for the past 2.5 years, even though I heard the patches fixed a lot of issues. I just couldn't convince myself to try again.

Specifically, I got a ThinkPad T450s from 2015 for about $40. It didn’t come with storage, a power adapter, or the external battery, which cost me about an extra $100 to order. The internal battery is there but I can’t really test it until my power adapter comes in (I forgot to order it at the same time as the laptop whoops). There are also some keycaps missing. I can’t test if the switches are good yet but hopefully it turns out to be an easy fix. When I removed the back panel, I found that the plastic towards the front that the screws go into was broken, as if someone had just ripped the thing open with the screws still in there. One screw’s plastic is completely gone, but the other two are there, loosely hanging around, which is annoying, but some super glue should fix that right up. Assuming the laptop works once all my parts come in, I can’t be too mad over a $140 laptop.

Normally gacha games aren't my thing, but I downloaded Honkai Star Rail on a whim and now it's consumed so much of my time. I know basically nothing about the lore, but regardless I'm really enjoying the story and characters. The combat system is really fun and I like getting to try different characters. It's so weird because I've tried to get into more "traditional" turn-based RPGs to no success but this game just scratches an itch in my brain.

Recently, I was working on a toy Linux shell to learn about the fork and exec system calls, and I got curious about how the popular shells like bash implement shell scripting languages, which led me down a rabbithole of lexers, parsers, and formal language definitions. It led me to Robert Nystrom's [Crafting Interpreters](http://www.craftinginterpreters.com/), a book that guides you through writing an interpreter for a toy language called Lox. Nystrom's code is in Java, but I wanted to do it in C, which has been a bit of a headache. I'm really rusty in C compared to my college days, but improving my C skills and learning about programming languages has been quite an enjoyable experience, regardless. It's neat to see real applications for some of the topics covered in automata class.

I did a complete overhaul of the layout of my site. When I launched my website a year and a half ago, I designed it while under the influence of web 1.0 nostalgia. With this redesign, my goal is to better use the amount of screen space PCs have these days, while also making it easier for the content to be responsive on mobile.

I recently read fLaMEd's post discussing the shortcomings of linking techniques frequently used on the smallweb, such as link pages, webrings, button walls, etc. Many websites on the smallweb employ these techniques in order to connect to other stops in the smallweb space. I don't think they are inherently bad, of course, but the context matters a lot. I want to know *why* the webmaster has chosen to put these links on their website, even if the explanation is as brief as "these people are my friends and their websites are cool."

For the past year, this website has been generated using some Go code I wrote, which was fun while it lasted, but it got to the point where every time I wanted to add something I would have to hand-code the new feature, which resulted in my website never getting updated. So moving forward, I've gone back to using Hugo as a static site generator. It's been a great experience so far, converting my old stylesheets into a Hugo theme has been quite easy. My custom-built site generator is a project I'd like to revisit in the future, but for now ease of use takes priority.

It is an interesting time to be online. Twitter went from bad to worse. Reddit kneecapped itself. It seems now that the period of free money is over, tech companies are finding out that operating at a loss to amass users and putting off any sort of monetization plan as long as possible isn't as great a business model as was once thought. So far it appears to only work in a monopolistic scenario, like with Google and perhaps Meta. Everyone else hasn't really hit that critical mass. The only thing of value these companies have is the data they host, which is now being siphoned for free by AI products, then repackaged and regurgitated to the consumer. To defend against this, both Reddit and Twitter have removed free access to their API and are charging exorbitant prices to restore access. The result is shittier platforms for the user, who create the entirety of the platform's value in the first place.

Man, my [one blog post per week](/blogs/2024/01/reflecting-on-2023) goal sure fell apart quickly. To avoid going too long without a post, I figure I'll give a quick update on what I've been working on. Over at the 32-Bit Cafe, we [announced we are expanding into a Discourse forum](https://discuss.32bit.cafe/f/32bitcafe/217/valentine-s-day-event-huge-announcement)! I've been spending a lot of time setting it up and working alongside the rest of the mod team to get it ready before the February 15th launch. This weekend, I was able to find some time to work on projects, though. I built a PC for my partner, which they have been enjoying! It was a much needed upgrade over their old system, which was a frankensteined build made out of the core of my first PC build from 2015. I also spent some time working through [Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment](https://stevens.netmeister.org/631/). I'm working on the first homework assignment, which is a simple program that copies a file. It's been a fun challenge and I'm learning a lot. On the fitness side of things, I haven't made much progress yet. I actually took the week off from the gym because of a combination of sleep issues and hurting my back, but I'm feeling a lot better now and will be back at it tomorrow! While the first month of 2024 hasn't gone quite to plan, I've been keeping busy anyway.

This week, Riot Games announced they are bringing their [Vanguard anti-cheat software to League of Legends](https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/news/dev/tl-dw-season-2024-look-ahead/). Previously introduced with the release of Valorant, Vanguard is a pretty typical kernel-level anti-cheat software, which is to say, a security nightmare. It runs at the highest level of permissions possible on your system.

Last weekend I was really getting the semi-annual itch to play Minecraft. When I loaded it up, I realized it would be a good idea to do a backup of my world, because I hadn't done it in a while. I've poured *a lot* of hours into it with my partner and we would be devastated to lose it. So I wrote up a quick `rsync` command to send it over to my network storage (a strong term for an Raspberry Pi 4 with a USB hard disk attached). I/O error. Huh that's weird. After some intense googling, I found out my SSD has reported **535 blocks unable to be reallocated**. In other words, much of my SSD was becoming unreadable, and it was running out of good blocks to move my data to.

This past week I've been working on a big redesign of my site. I'm trying to recreate the vibe of MSN / Windows Live Messenger around 2008-2011. Today, I spent most of the day recreating the avatar frame from WL Messenger in CSS.
