bass2nick.com
Personal site with a booru, imageboard, filehost, XMPP server, and articles on the main site.
Is it expected to make a webring page by scouring other lists, downloading all the banners to your site, and updating banners/sites by watching these threads? I'm unsure of how it's properly done and this system seems like it would result in lists that are mostly outdated.

The "How do I make a banner" question creeps up a lot and maybe it should be its own thread. Each person a part of this webring has a different way of doing it from a technical POV.
To speak personally. My logo was done in the free software known as "GIMP". pick a font, type some stuff, add another layer for the background, and smash as many combination filters in the 'render' category of GIMP until you get something cool.
With the age of GPT low-res background art is probably easier now.
I did animate my logo using OpenShot and FFmpeg (very multi-platform). But at 3MB I felt it was way too heavy to use on a webring.
From a creative POV. You put your artist hat on and try to determine in 240x60 pixels what the 'feel' of your website is going to be. If you are not a creative person then just fonts and primary website colors are more than enough!
If you are going for a particular aesthetic, there are a ton of tutorials on how to use paint software to make things like CRT scan lines, static, distortion, etc.
Best to you on finding your style. - S

Here are some ideas:
>plain 2 color banner where the only text is the name of your site. then just replace it later if you make a nicer one
I noticed multiple versions of some banners when I was making my webring page and I tried to select what looked like the "newest" one to me.
>pixel art that you like, can be self made (pixel art can be easy) or ripped from something. examples: a character from metal slug, something on nightt's retro art, an image you like with a pixel art filter slapped on it
>imitation of a certain button or font from a piece of software you like
>part of a photograph with your logo slapped on top
if you want, you can use a photo I've taken and I'll edit a banner for you if you don't know how to do so. Just preferably not posts 61 or 68 on my imagehost since I use those all over my own branding.
My own logo was made by taking pictures of a fossil I have and a moving a light strip around it. I did bulk edits in darktable and all the final work and animation in krita. I wish I could have a smoother look with 3x the frames, but I didn't think the resulting filesize would be respectful.
As for keeping up to date, I've seen a couple attempts such as
>>70497
pointed out, and
https://github.com/gattsuchan/lainchan-webring/blob/main/webring.html
which is more outdated but with some recent pull requests.
Ultimately I decided to write up the page myself in a spreadsheet and find-and-replace my way to victory. I also wrote a fancy script to tell if the sites were dead/under constr- lolno I visited every site manually and updated the page by hand.
>>70577
Hey S-Config, I actually stumbled across your site on tor before I knew it was in the lainring. Do you have any suggestions or warnings for someone considering offering their site through tor? I was thinking of writing a redirect that prevents tor users from going onto pages that require JS. Also, I feel like I'd have to rewrite any media sources using absolute paths to prevent accidental loading from the clearnet domain, but I'm not certain. It might also be nice to override image size styling to make them smaller, but I'm not certain how to do this such that the images loaded are small but they retain links to the original.

Hey Nick,
To answer your questions about Tor. Mileage may vary on this advice as I'm using WordPress. I did have to sit down and re-write the hooks of WP-core to check against $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"] making sure the client is coming in from the right address from nginx. If you are building your HTML static you don't have to worry about this.
I also had to set nginx to deny access to anything backend related like the admin panels to keep the script kiddies at bay. was getting annoying seeing hundreds of attempts a day.
As for image content, CSS font-family styling, etc. Yeah, I had to absolute path everything. Super annoying the first time you do it. Had to also tell WordPress to suppress the website address so it would go to
/image/image.jpg
instead of
http://website/image/image.jpg
Javascript on Tor is not really a life/death thing back when I used javascript because all browsers honored <noscript> as a fallback. If you code your own JavaScript you shouldn't have a problem doing relative linking just like the images. I didn't code my own JavaScript and relied on code from commercial plugins that to be blunt was lazy.
As for general advice with Tor. It's almost the same as running clear-net web. watch out for anything that allows users to upload. like guestbooks. etc. If you do something like that, make sure it doesn't publish immediately and goes into a moderation queue for you to approve.
Treat Tor like it's the 1990s internet when Google doesn't exist. You got to get the word out that "you exist". If you ask people that host links to nicely to add your site. They probably will. Be patient. Might take a week or two before they do anything. If your server up-time is good eventually other tor sites will catch on and share the link around. Because Tor is still a small community you stand a fighting chance of someone finding your site versus the clear-net search engine hell.
For images, I didn't take the smaller/thumbnail path and instead went for optimization. Making alts for webp and avif (jxl is still hosted despite the browser industry crushing the standard). Might be problematic if I revise my site for 4k. But have not crossed that bridge yet.
Not sure if it helps. Hope it wasn't too spammy. But best of luck to you getting onto Tor. - S

I am somewhat concerned about the possibility of my vps getting nuked on the same day my hard drive dies. Some other guy's git host is just another machine that has the potential to get nuked but it helps me sleep better knowing that at least 3 most recent copies of my site exist somewhere. Of course I could self host git on a different vps provider with a different domain name but I have not done this yet. I wouldn't lose anything because no one aside from the occasional spam bots seem to interact with any of my repos.

Thanks S. I'll keep note of this once I'm ready to get on tor. I see that 0x19 has some information about it as well (I have added all three of your addresses to my ring btw). I'm gradually taking measures to secure the clearnet site, such as recently writing a script to throw all of my configuration files and site data into an encrypted tar.gz, which I then keep copies of.
There are quite a few ctf articles on Lux in Tenebris and I was considering attacking my own site to see if it has vulnerabilities. A bunch of bots have certainly tried.
>>70728
It's kinda sloppy but I put a
<img width="240" height="60" src=...
onto banners that don't match the size.
>>70731
Some sites seem to treat the aesthetic as the content. I'm considering pushing sites with good insight on them higher up the list, but currently I've settled for alphabetical order because it seemed "fair enough." We have a mix of experienced and fresh people on the webring and being in the latter category, a decent portion of the effort has been in just getting the site and services up and making it look alright while being compatible with desktop and mobile.
I have some items I could put on my site, but something I am running into is deciding whether I'm okay with having certain things up there. I've been telling people I know in meatspace about my site and although I totally could put up a bunch of demos about my experience learning death metal vocals, or put up some of the longer fiction I've written, there are some considerations.
Unrelated: I have an rss feed at https://bass2nick.com/rss.xml

Honestly I think you should. There was another poster in the last (now purged) thread where he was flaming everyone for basically creating personal websites for the sake of making a website and failing to put anything interesting on it, and as much of an asshole as he was I think he had a bit of a point.
I know technically a website doesn't "need" anything but websites with actual stuff on them are infinitely more interesting than sites without. (not including the requisite blog section with like two articles.)

>>70752
Most of my information is OpenBSD specific because I use my website as a place to document my projects. Tor is fairly easy to add but i2p will significantly increase the amount of bandwidth your server uses. I would recommend securing the clearnet site first either way. I see that you are running multiple services. This isn't an issue normally but you have to be vigilant. Anywhere a client can input text is something you have to think about. This includes GET and POST requests and anything you parse logs with, not just form elements. Path traversal and injections are easy to detect and easy to prevent. The standard advice applies: use key based ssh authentication and disable password auth and maybe pam, don't install a webshell that allows you to get into the system without ssh keys, use a firewall, read your logs and mail occasionally, do backups if you consider your server "non-disposable", use daemon users (instead of fuarrrking root or a standard login user) for services that you want to reverse proxy to, etc. You can do lots of easy things to thwart drive-by skiddie spam.
For your meatspace issue, only share as much as you feel comfortable with. You can't really unpublish things from the internet so think about if you want these things permanently attached to this identity. Even if present you is okay with it future you might not be okay with it.

About the whole cringe and boring thing.
Bloggers that write about their day are valid. Perhaps it depends on the day that they're having that determines the level of interest to the reader. In a way, I appreciate bloggers like that because they don't care who they're talking to. In some cases, they're just doing it for themselves. The reader is simply along for the ride.
The worst bloggers (to me) are the commercial bloggers. You tend to see them showing up on mall or airport kiosks pushing their utterly vapid agenda. As if somehow flying first class is 'roughing it'. Or what type of luggage matters which at the end of the day everything is destroyed in baggage. I believe those people have been replaced with GPT by now. At least I hope so.

I prefer vps over shared hosting. It's more expensive and more work but it is more free in the sense that I can run whatever services I want to run and gain the ability to entirely avoid cpanel. I use vultr because they allow you to upload isos. Anything that runs on kvm should run on vultr. DNS is namecheap, I use acme.sh for ssl. So far, my accounts have not been terminated.
I have been thinking about building my own vps provider or shared hosting shell server for anons, lains, and frens but I haven't got that far yet. I am currently having a difficult time when it comes to working on projects.

Added to my list, the point is that the webring is decentralized, we don't have a central authority for it. If the central authority dies, we will still have the webring, in its current updated status but it's better than nothing.
So no canonical source of truth, but cosmica, sizeofcat, webring autist, all update as soon as possible.

it is, in fact, a reference to Coil!
“That’s one of the things about music that fascinates me most—how combinations of basic mathematical frequencies take on such extraordinary emotional power and suggest such meaning. I mean, how do—what are basically just sequences of vibrating tones at certain specific numeric values—make us all feel like they do? And not only that but why do we all, regardless of our cultural or ethnic origins, hearing a certain chord or tone, feel the more or less the same? I guess Jhonn was right: Angels ARE mathematical, after all.”

Website havers, am I better doing the layout, the stylesheet or the contents first?
I have a homepage and some articles written but everything is currently very bland ugly looking bare HTML, I want to make it look pretty, so I started making a proper stylesheet, but then I don't know if I'll want to change that when I make a decent layout, but then should I not write more stuff before trying to make it look nice?
I feel like I should know way more about HTML and what the site is going to be about before making a layout but I keep thinking about doing it.

Content and aesthetics are not linked at the hip. Echoing others here. You can make content on plain-text html. using the very basics such as headers, bold, italics.
From there, you can add style/CSS later. Or, at the same time! This is kind of the beauty of running your very own website. There is no corporation that is telling you what to do or even when to do it. You are not locked into the format of another overlord. You are free.
Like all things art, you take inspiration from the things you've seen and experienced. Modify, and add it to your own creation.

Usually, when I'm building a new site from the ground up, my process will be:
>block out the basic layout in HTML using lorem ipsum for filler content
>start making it look cool with CSS
>start the process of building the PHP stuff I'll use to streamline content publishing and updates.
Just prior to push to production, I'll also do a webapp pentest to make sure I didn't fuarrrk up anything in my PHP to make it dangerous.
After initial push to prod, I now have a basic framework, and most everything else is just here-and-there piecemeal changes. I'll make CSS changes in a very "test in prod" way, while PHP changes will be tested on the dev setup before push to prod and if any PHP changes require input handling, I'll probably do a full pentest in the dev environment as well.
The raw HTML itself will likely not change too too much (it's a massive undertaking usually to modify something so built-in), but if I were to do so, it's usually to implement a major new feature. I haven't done anything like this on my current site, thusfar, though. Lots of CSS changes and a few new features over time, but no real HTML mods since the very beginning.
>>71551
No new sites, but I changed my site's visual style pretty radically again, added a message board and a few other things that are documented in my changelog.
main URL:
http://oh3curby3abfknsydatt2qc3vgxggfjxd6infybwvlbgaezjhvhzqhad.onion
Probably the most reliable way to access via clearnet atm:
http://oh3curby3abfknsydatt2qc3vgxggfjxd6infybwvlbgaezjhvhzqhad.onion.ly
Yes, it is significantly slower, less safe, and more error prone to use some offhand tor2web gateway like this; I advise just getting tor.

Do any lains know anything about these spam posts I've been getting on my tinyIB instance?
They are quite mild as far as imageboard spam I've seen, consisting of a title that is some permutation of "I want to know about your price," a body approximating the same text in some random language, and a name and email address. I've also only seen about 3 of them over the 2 month existence of my IB.

With older finger servers it was possible to put ansi escape sequences in your ~/.plan so that when someone fingered your user they would get a very long ansi spinner. If you repeated something like:

    \\\b|\b/\b-\b

the result would be an ansi spinner animation that stalls the finger program. ESR calls it the "twirling baton" animation but there are other possible animations. http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/P/plan-file.html

Whoa, so you already proved it works! my idea on playing with finger was trying something like this, but I wanted to make finger block on read so I let some code running to generate dynamic content. Unfortunately finger check if the plan file is a regular file and I can only make it open a fifo using race condition :|
I still need to add the banners, and I probably will do this at this weekend.

updated. I might suggest that sites that don't have their own webring pages link to someone else's webring, like Eigenvoid does.
Before, I had noreferrer on my webring page, but I've taken that off so that you guys can see when traffic goes from my site to yours. I've gotten about 109 visitors from angelsaremathematical, and I wouldn't have known that if she disabled referrers.

the good thing about the web'''ring''' structured in this way is that everyone has a slightly different verison of the sites. some excluded some. some added some. its worthwhile to explore all the rings. also finally up to date again though somehow I always end up missing a bunch compared to the sizeofcat one.

>>71835
I ended up adding the recent submissions to
https://bass2nick.com/webring.html
but I might decide to move certain sites to my "empty & under construction" category or make another category for sites that warrant it.
I would prefer if the webring members not advertise discord or similar walled gardens on their sites, and that they not use tracking scripts. What is the point of a webring if it starts to morph back into corponet? Additionally, some sites have some serious readability issues. Please guys, don't trade basic readability for quirky formatting.
Some sites in my "dead" section could potentially be security hazards, particularly for users who do not use script blockers, so I am considering removing the links and only having the banners.
>>71829
Also asking this.
I think what I'll do is wait a few days, then go through all the sites, and for those that do not also link my site, move it to a category which will be called "quasi-members" or something. This will be placed between the "empty" and "dead" categories, and the banner sizes will be reduced. However, sites that were part of the webring before I joined that don't link me will still be listed normally, though perhaps I will bump more recently updated sites up. Sites that excessively advertise walled garden services may be excluded outright.
Does anything I suggest sound unreasonable?

>>71838
I think we can't expect people to add the webring page BEFORE asking here to be added, so giving them a week or so sounds like the sensible thing to do.
Also, if you encounter websites that are in the webring and they don't have the webring page, you should post them here so we can update our copies accordingly.

Totally agree, but each owner has their own website aesthetics in mind, and as long as the trackers aren't really annoying, it's ok I guess?
For me, the only requirements for a website to be added to the webring would be to have some kind of content, an about page, a homepage linking to some online friends, maybe a small links archive with stuff he or she found interesting, a picture of the family cat or something. Mainly the website to look personal and not something crafted for the clicks (and let me tell you, the webring definitely brings some traffic to your website, like >>71760 said. Don't expect thousands daily though, but those are organic visitors, real people.
> Some sites in my "dead" section could potentially be security hazards, particularly for users who do not use script blockers, so I am considering removing the links and only having the banners.
I have a "dead" section of my site too, and randomly clicking on it few days ago I noticed FönixFogelFuchs coming back online, so I updated the entry. I don't think we should remove websites, just mark them as dead/offline (maybe don't put anchors so people can click on them, just plain text?).
> the good thing about the web'''ring''' structured in this way is that everyone has a slightly different verison of the sites. some excluded some. some added some. its worthwhile to explore all the rings.
Exactly, that's the point. I think we're close to 120 sites in the webring so yes, make sure to browse around, you will find lots of gems.

Boris Grishenko 2023-08-10 14:30:22 No. 71841

I think one of the inherent strengths/weaknesses of anything decentralized like this is that you are going to have wildly different types of sites of varying quality in it, if there is no central authority deciding what the base line standard is or what the theme is actually supposed to be the community should either agree that to be in the ring you have to share the whole thing, trash and all, or that every member can display content from the ring however they like.
I don't see the varying kinds of sites as an issue, rather as a strength, the variety is really nice and kind of unusual for webrings, more content is definitely better than less though, 30 minutes writing is probably more worthwhile than 60 minutes fiddling around making a complex layout.

I wrote the code for my lainring and deployed it shortly before making a post. I do the same when I update my copy. It's not unreasonable to prefer that members "join the ring" before announcing that they have joined the ring. As far as I was concerned, the only way to become a member of lainring is by hosting a copy of the ring itself. Asking to join the ring in this specific general can't possibly be a requirement for a decentralized webring because it implies centralization. I think that even "asking to join" is somewhat of an incorrect phrase because it seems like more of an announcement of membership.

I think we should remove them (the websites that don't host a copy of the webring). If someone has the time and wants to make a list of them, we'll be forever in debt (if we decide to remove).

updated your code a bit, now it allows you to tinker with the settings using argparse.
i also fixed openssl giving an error saying it needed either "-pbkdf" or "-iter", so i just passed "-iter 1"

hey fellahs. been a frequent poster in these threads for awhile also advertised the ring around other places since i love the project. but haven't worked on a site yet! can ya believe it!?
i've got some questions about hosting. i was planning on using neocities to host since that's where most of the people without their own domain are located. never used it before, nor its predecessor GeoCities.
i'm used to using git for static websites. so... HOW do you make/update neocities sites, is it all manual? is there a page editor in the browser people are using to work on their sites? that wouldnt be appealing to me i'd prefer to push my code from a repo.
alternatively, any free TLD's or subdomain identities i could grab and point that to a regular github/gitlab pages location? i remember .tk being cool but they were shady back in the day. they'd insert ads on the page when you weren't visiting it from the IP it was registered on. hmmm actually ill just get a .xyz domain theyre like $3.
but if anyone has some thoughts/ideas, might be helpful to other people that dont wanna pay.
BTW, would any of you be annoyed if I used some big corp like github pages to join the ring? would any of you not want to add me to your links on that basis?
cheers

I can't talk about Neocities because I never used it, there are plenty of cheap domain names (you should really get your own and not rely on Neocities for that).

>HOW do you make/update neocities sites, is it all manual?
Yes. Unless you're using a template or an external program to generate it you have to code the website from scratch.
>is there a page editor in the browser people are using to work on their sites?
There is but it's kinda laggy and crap and I'd recommend writing the code in an external text editor (I prefer notepad++ cause it's extremely simple but you 1337 hacker types might like that fancy pants "vim" I keep hearing about) and just ctrl c ctrl v it into the neocities editor.
>that wouldnt be appealing to me i'd prefer to push my code from a repo.
I don't know if you can do that *specifically* but that's because I've never tried to.
>BTW, would any of you be annoyed if I used some big corp like github pages to join the ring? would any of you not want to add me to your links on that basis?
Honestly most people probably don't care that much (aside from earlier people were moaning about linking to cancerware like discord, and frankly I feel the same) but the only real requirement for being a part of the webring is hosting a copy of the webring page.
Basically do what >>71901 said and just use whatever feels natural to you. Also, yeah make sure your site actually has stuff on it before you post it ITT.

>>71903
I understand, I also understand desire for people having copies of the webring. By all means, encourage away. Just keep in mind that our key element is decentralization. You'll find many people here pretty lax about forcing people to do things on their site. Someone might come along and be like, "I will only link sites whose opinions I agree with." I'd personally disagree with that, but it is their autonomy. Same as it is our autonomy to link back to them or not. It's definitely a balance, yo. I just feel we should be more wary of sites that clearly don't fit (like an online marketer, just as an example) rather than looking to pick a fight with godcock who, yes does not have a mofo copy of the webring, what is wrong with him, but he clearly belongs / fits here.

If you aren't familiar with the concept of Planets / feed aggregation / live feeds:

you can use custom domain names for github/gitlab pages but it makes ssl difficult. I have used neocities before and it's just as much of a pain in the ass as any other shared static hosting provider. No easy git or even rsync support. There is a ruby command line client but it does not work as I expected it to.
My honest advice is to pay for a domain name and a vps because the initial effort of assembling a web server is less than the continuous effort of fighting with cpanel or whatever your provider is using.

Nope. Mmmmmaybe they'll get as far as getting the actual webring up but it'll collapse in six months either from drama or neglect. 4chan honestly really, really is like kicking dead whales down the beach at collaboration these days. It's really depressing how far that site's fallen.

stupid good ascii for a first try, give pablodraw a shot too since ur source said ur on vim. always had good experiences with it for very detailed pieces, once used to some of the awkward keybinding choices for common characters.
not sure if it's intentional but the links on ur homepage are off-screen on my 1080p monitor, only visible in the source. might need to change fontsize based on window size if committed to no scrollbars?

So I was looking about something related to the webring last night. Fortunately, I still have some pages from posts that I have removed from the website a long time ago. In a removed post I made about joining the webring, I added a link to that thread. I decided to look it up on the Wayback Machine and fortunately there were a few snapshots of it.

added. How is Void compared to OpenBSD? One of the biggest reasons I like OpenBSD is the lack of general GNUisances. One time I installed Gentoo with musl libc instead of glibc but portage and many system tools still depend on GNU coreutils. I have also played with Alpine Linux a little bit but OpenBSD really feels like home for me.

Not sure if we post website updates here but I've been very busy. No new posts. tor mirror is still up, i2pd crashes occasionally but it appears to be up most of the time. I haven't been working on projects at all. I helped a friend with his R blogdown site breaking but that's about it. Lately I have been thinking about how internet interactions are sufficiently indistinguishable from solipsistic thought processes.

I started a spreadsheet to figure this out. It has columns for rating whether the site has a webring page, as well as other reasons you might want to exclude it (assuming some people don't like discord/google/etc). If any other lains feel like helping check this, just call out the range of rows you'll check, then re-host (or send me, and I'll do it for you) an updated spreadsheet when you're done. My apologies if I've been unfair to anyone in my comments here, I did check nearly 50 sites manually, but didn't read and explore everything on each site. It would also be helpful to get multiple opinions on the document after it's been filled out to make sure the decisions are sound.
https://bass2nick.com/static/webring.ods
If you send me an updated copy, it'll be available at this same address when I upload it.
My default position on sites I tag to keep, yet they have no lainring/it's super outdated, would be that we should contact them, provide resources to help in updating, and remove them if they don't (or move them into a lower category on our rings).
I still need to update my lainring to include gamajun and reflect some decisions from the spreadsheet, but I'll probably wait for all sites to be considered + give the newest guys some time to settle. Also been busy working on a new article, which I put up today! Give it a read if you like photography or image editing.

Void is a very simple, fast (while the performance of OpenBSD can be a serious dealbreaker, unfortunately) and overall nice Linux distro. Musl version is well maintained and I had no issues with it so far. But as an OpenBSD user you should keep in mind that Void isn't as well documented as OpenBSD (that's what I really love about OpenBSD, they have high standards for docs). There are no actual resources aside from the handbook and online communities. Also, OpenBSD felt a bit more…idk, coherent? Not sure if that's the right word.

>>72335
Short version:
Hugo.
* Bigger community.
* More plugins and themes available.
* More documentation and examples available.
* Quite fast build and iteration times (although both are fast).
* Available in many package repos (although Zola may be available in the package repo you are using, and it's a single binary).
* Similar deployment model as Zola (single file, statically compiled binary).
Long version:
It depends on the use case. Neither is outright better or worse than the other, the choice of an SSG depends on many factors:
1. The scope of the site that you want to create. If you site has a limited scope, then you'll likely need only a few plugins. In that case, you have more flexibility in choosing an SSG, since any one of them likely has the plugins you'll need (such as a markdown to html plugin). If the scope is more broad and you plan on extending your site in the future, you may want to go with a more popular SSG (Jekyll or Hugo), since there will be more plugins and documentation available.
2. The number of plugins and themes that you want. Similar reasoning as point 1. However, if you need a lot of custom plugins that don't exist in any SSG, then you have more flexibility in choosing an SSG.
3. How comfortable you are with various programming languages. Similar reasoning as point 2. If you need a lot of custom plugins, you'll be doing a lot of programming, and so might want to pick an SSG that is written in a language that you are already familiar with.
4. How quickly you want to create a site. If you just want to build and iterate quickly, a more popular SSG might be a better choice, since you can just use a bunch of prebuilt plugins and themes for most of the heavy lifting. Granted, your site may look a bit similar to the boilerplate's examples in the given SSG in this case.
Chances are that for most people Hugo will be a better choice, just given the larger community and more documentation/examples, and the fact that many sites don't need a lot of customization (and when they do, a plugin for it is usually available).

It took me some good amount of effort to build my website and I am proud of it and I am happy to be in the lainring but I haven't wrote a new post in weeks and I have no idea what to write about kek.
This feels so annoying.

Good morning, lainons. I don't really participate in the webring anymore, but just letting you know that the URL for the Tor hidden service for Let's Decentralize has changed. Vultr threw a hissy fit over high CPU usage from compiling some software and deleted my VPS without emailing me about it first. I lost a few backups that hadn't made it to offline storage yet. The server is on a different provider now. The new link is also on the front page of the clearnet site (https://letsdecentralize.org) if you don't believe me.

Hey Lains
I'm setting up a blogging flow using nixos, org-mode, and ox-hugo.
I've extended the bare-bones hugo-bearcub https://themes.gohugo.io/themes/hugo-bearcub/ theme, but it still feels too clean. I'm trying to have everything clean, readable, and nice to use, but I don't want someone to use a blogpost of mine in a standup meeting. Generally, I want it to be crufty enough that I _lose_ credibility without sacrificing the usability of the blog --- even on differently sized viewports.
Does anyone have suggestions?

honestly just not having the ability for anyone to comment on your posts can really alleviate that concern. you might be surprised at how the worry just evaporates. although having said that am personally not in the webring specifically because of anxiety that the site would be commented on in these threads.

When I see people submit their sites it's often met with positivity. Even when people ask others here for advice on making their site better. That's the neat part of webrings. More personal.
Comments are all about how you view it. Getting legit comments versus the deluge of spam means people are reading. nice. Might get the reaver-meat-space level hate comment from time to time. Which eh, comes with going public. Unless it's valid criticism I'd just laugh and destroy.

Yeah I also do have a motivation crisis, so hear me out. In my opinion, the small chunks of time will be more of a hassle than you might think. I advice to just do it, and continue to do it whenever you have the inspiration to do so, otherwise the project may be left unfinished. Just do it, totally worth the headache and the feeling of hopelessness, because in the end, after you made your site, the dopamine hits really well. So, go and do it.

Hey fren, nice articles! Welcome to the Lainring.
Did some changes to my webring pages, added options for people to import the RSS feeds of the members into Newsboat and sfeed, added another section for webmaster who want to add the webring banners to their site (now you can copy/paste both HTML and Markdown) and as a bonus, added a RSS planet-like-thingy for the members, so visitors can view the latest 30 articles from the webring. It's not working amazing (for some reason I cannot see now it doesn't see RisingThumb's pubDate correctly) and is using sfeed to generate the feedlist.
I'll work on it some other day but for now it is what it is.
https://sizeof.cat/post/lainring/
Let me know if there are any suggestions!
P.S. Statistics: 123 members with 824 articles. Not bad at all.

Oh, I know why the pubDate is not parsed correctly.

    if (!strtotime(fields[FieldUnixTimestamp], &parsedtime)

The pubDate in RisingThumb's RSS cannot be parsed by strtotime.
> <pubDate>Tue Aug 22 00:00:00 UTC 2023</pubDate>
should be in this format:
> <pubDate>Tue, 22 Aug 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate>
I think.

Good catch! I probably should have validated my RSS feed. You're completely right about the dates being wrong, it wasn't in RFC822 format. I thought date spat out RFC822 format dates but it needed the -R flag. Anyway, I've fixed it. Thanks for the shout about it!
As for not working amazingly, it's probably having to take none-RFC822 format dates in the RSS. RSS spec states it should be that way, but then you have people who forget to validate their RSS or are just very special
Thanks for the feedback on the site fren!

route. Lately I'm recommending https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn because MDN is a better resource. Start small. Iterate upon previous work.

It mostly works. I really didn't think it would have been online this long but it's somehow less work than my main site. 9front's git implementation likes to crash a lot, especially with a lot of binary files, so some of the things I previously hosted there have been moved to other sites.

I disagree. He has a cool page of urbex, the uncle ted library, and a gallery of windmill photographs. Requesting for anons to ostracize a guy because you don't like his website is pretty cringe bro.
For my own site, not much has changed. Still no time. Still no inspiration. I've been considering going X-less for a few weeks, throwing my phone into a cone crusher, and writing about the experience but I really feel like it doesn't fit into the 0x19 goal because my intentions are the opposite of "purely technical". I don't know what it is but I have some inhibition when it comes to adding anything *too* personal to 0x19.
>>71993
forgot to reply. In my experience OpenBSD isn't too slow once it's been running for a while. The random relinking seems to only affect the initial spawning of a process but decreases to linuxish speeds with subsequent runs. You should also consider enabling smt if you don't run javascript and random soykaf you download from the internet. Coherence is definitely something that I like about OpenBSD. It's a singular project with a singular goal and this removes much of the cognitive dissonance that arises when you use linux too much. My only experience with void is attempting a musl install, documentation did not exist, so I did gentoo+musl instead.

9front is awesome. Your site is awesome too. Perhaps disappointing, but maybe I can give you this statically compiled consolation prize :P Main reasons I'm running a debian install, is least of all costs(VPS for a 9front box) and most of all time to actually move things to the 9front box, figure out rc-httpd. Also if you haven't reached out, ask the bloke who maintains werc.cat-v.org to add you to the powered list. You seem like an active werc user, and I've not seen many folks use werc in the wild.
You may also be interested in some of my apps for Werc:
Gallery for image listings instead of dir listings: https://cgit.risingthumb.xyz/cgit/gallery.git/
Different blog tool: https://cgit.risingthumb.xyz/cgit/goralog.git/
Personal patches for dirdir making it more usable(upload file, large text, new folder/file, delete page/folder): https://cgit.risingthumb.xyz/cgit/dirdir.git/
My site also has a bible(KJV+Apocrypha) tool that's still a WIP. Need to get verse linking sorted out, but book linking and chapter linking works
> but it's somehow less work than my main site.
I think reliability and ease of use is the main selling point of werc. It's a pain in the ass wrapping your head around rc's lists, concatenations and other rc-isms when learning it, but once you figure it out it's wonderful to use.
> updated. I like how your site loads instantly while preventing the soulcrushing feeling mine gives me.
Does 9front have an fcgi implementation? I changed from cgi to fcgi a while back and saw significant speed improvements. More significant than moving from dynamically linked libs to statically linked libs by compiling plan9port myself.
Sorry it's taken me a while to add the lainchan webring to my site, I'll try and get around to it this weekend- don't want to "leech" from the webring, and not give back.

Not one of those lains, but the way I see it, everyone hosting the webring on their site can choose which sites to (in/ex)clude. If the original poster wants to bring to everyone’s attention that they disagree with content on tard zone’s website then they totally should be able to. But what they’re doing is giving argument to why others should remove tard zone from the ring as a whole. The lains you referenced are simply pointing out that, as a federated process, that there is no consensus on whether tard zone’s website is sufficiently offensive to have it removed.

anyway continue to call me a child. i do not take life advice nor insults from ppl who call themselves nordic tradcaths who say advocating for nazism falls under their right to freedom to speech ?
if it's any consolation i promise you'll grow out of it one day because i grew out of it when i was 14
