August 2022 Status Update
An monthly status update on the stuff Andrei Jiroh is doing behind the scenes this August 2022.
Hi there, Andrei Jiroh's here! And, this is my status update for August 2022, covering August 1 to 18. While I do not attempt to do the monthly status updates like the crew at SourceHut does due to school reasons (if you're reading this on August 22 onwards, assuming I published this earlier, you probably guess it), hopefully this monthly update is enough for you.
Editor Andrei Jiroh here: It's October 18, Philippines Standard Time, and and god sorry for late publication of the August 2022 monthly update. Life's been way more busy and stressful lately since the start of the school. Stuff written in this entry might be outdated at time of publication, so apologies for that!
ctrl-c.club/~ajhalili2006 and @ajhalili2006@tilde.zone
While I wait to afford to have my own server, either bare metal or in the cloud, I'm officially joining the Ctrl-C.club as my home for casual Bash script writing, and sometimes, dumping some screenshots for use in IRC chat
Since I'm now part of Ctrl-C tilde, I'm also officially part of the tildeverse community too. Say hi to me by tagging @ajhalili2006@tilde.zone on your next toot or come by ##ajhalili2006 channel on your bouncer over tilde.chat IRC network (disclaimer: I use chat.sr.ht for personal daily use, while IRCNow's ZNC bouncer for administrative stuff on Recap Time Sqiad's IRC channels, y'know, ChanServ-like stuff in case of netsplits).
While I planned to join the tildeverse via envs.net first brcause I'm switching username + homeserver on Matrix, I might probably need to explain a bit better the next time I apply again in the future.
Podcast Episode Picks on Spotify
If you need a playlist for offline listening, and you love listening to podcasts on Spotify, then look no further as my bloody podcast episode picks. It's a bloody mixture of podcasts from Vox Media, Rappler, PumaPodcast (Filipino political and religious apologists, please stop using libel against journalists.) with some TED Talks and other stuff in between.
I'm also accepting podcast suggestions for anyone, so also feel free to shoot me a message, and I'll queue it next time. Roasts are also welcome, although please be nice in the public inbox.
Five stages of grief, FPJ's Ang Probinsyano edition
I'll not try to spoil you about the finale episode of FPJ's Ang Probinsyano, but in a nutshell:
I'll not go into the details, but feel free to watch it on YouTube (or whatever the streaming service you use) instead of scrolling through this Twitter moment I manually-crafted behind the scenes, but feel free to lurk there by the way.
Now let's talk about projects
Here's a quick round down of new projects I created, as promised last time, either under my personal namespaces or through Recap Time Squad's. I might need some hands in the maintenance side of things in the future, but if you want to help, you're welcome to contribute.
hutpod - open any repositories from sourcehut-powered code forges in Gitpod (CW for open source absolutists: also open-core like GitLab), which is currently a PITA to push objects for those who prefer to push over HTTPS, like you would do on GitLab (proper intro post will be available very soon), licensed under MPL-2.0.
sandbox-dotfiles - a separate fork of my dotfiles repo for my sandbox Unix user, used for experimenting with new scripts before ported back to the main repo, might inherit the same license as my main dotfiles soon
Multi-fandom hellscape: You didn't expect to add LifeSteal SMP to the mix, didn't ya?
Maybe this is a side effect of using Tumblr and following #mcyt tag and following more blogs, right? Here'd the chart for the multi-fandom multiverse stuff on my side, edited via Canva:
In meanwhile, LifeSteal SMP will be on outside observatory status until I know the fandom a bit more, especially on the shipping side of things.
Thanks for reading this monthly status update! Hope you are having a good time with yourself (and of course, if you're lurking around Hermitcraft stuff on Twitter/Tumblr, you're not immune to the GoodTimesWithScar), probably safe from all the shitfuckery around.
