      3 AAHHHH Too many Changes!
      4 
      5 I can hardly remember what changes I've made!
      6 
      7 I'll just make a list with some of the bigger changes:
      8 
      9 
     10  (1)   Personal  Git  at git.wrpr.us ‐ Doing git things with
     11        git
     12 
     13 
     14  (2)   A SearXng Instance at  searx.wrpr.us  ‐  My  favorite
     15        search engine
     16 
     17 
     18  (3)   No more users, making wrpr.us more personal
     19 
     20 
     21  (4)   Pinebook  Adventures  (Armbian  img available at wrpr
     22        git) ‐ more form this to come!
     23 
     24 
     25  (5)   Also working on a netcat based text wall
     26 
     27 
     28  (6)   And much more!
     29 
     30 
     31            As for the more personal thing - I've decided  to
     32        take wrpr.us in a more personal direction. My reason-
     33        ing  behind  the switch was time, ease of use and fo-
     34        cusing on what I actually  use.  Especially  after  I
     35        dropped  my  VPS with Vultr and Linear.codes, I might
     36        re-purpose linear or something later. As for some  of
     37        the services hosted here the only big change is shell
     38        access  will be more restricted and git is locked for
     39        personal use for now.
     40 
     41        Gopher? HTTP?
     42 
     43            In my search of simplicity and minimalism;  I  am
     44        torn between the ease of access of a static site gen-
     45        erator and HTTP. Just one, one thousand pound gorilla
     46        in the room -- I HATE MARKUP LANGUAGES. I feel like a
     47        need  a  paragraph to print a good looking, well for-
     48        matted sentence! I might make  a  super  simple  HTTP
     49        static  site  generator to mimic the syntax Gopher or
     50        Gemini uses, maybe make some sort of conversion  tool
     51        to mirror the Gopher site.
     52 
     53            It's  been  about  a  week since I wrote the last
     54        paragraph; I'm now testing out Phroxy and  Pygopherd.
     55        I  like  the  idea  of  hosting a Gopher proxy, since
     56        Phroxy has been archived I might start maintaining  a
     57        fork if I use it. As for Pygopherd, currently Geomyi-
     58        dae  has  been  great,  I just like the web interface
     59        that Pygopherd provides. You can find an example over
     60        at quux.org.
     61 
     62        PineBook Stuff
     63 
     64            Do you have an original PineBook? Is  Armbian  no
     65        longer working for you? Or do you just want a differ-
     66        ent  Debian distro to try out on your PineBook?  Head
     67        on over to git.wrpr.us today and clone my Armbian Im-
     68        age!
     69 
     70            I might make it another server or some  interface
     71        thing  for  my  Pis,  I  just want to actually use my
     72        Pinebook for something other than small projects  and
     73        OS  tinkering.  Virtual  machines are more useful for
     74        tinkering anyways.  I might make a  recurring  series
     75        of PineBook projects, we'll see.
     76 
     77 
     78        Wrapping up
     79 
     80            It's  been  way too long since the last update, I
     81        would like to log changes as they come, so  I'll  end
     82        this update here and publish more as I work on things
     83        coming up!
