THPS 1 Warehouse Gaps

On the road to Gap Master achievement I got all Warehouse Gaps in THPS1. This is this classic warehouse level that everyone thinks of when THPS is mentioned. Such a good level, compact, easy to play, with some fun gaps that might take a few tries to hit.

Next up THPS 1 School Gaps

I run tailwind for my personal blog, whenever I update it, pre-commit goes in and fixes end of file. I'm sick of thes...

After that embarrasing death I made my way over to a touchstone I found and Woodie is back from the dead, but without his beloved Lucy, to get her we will need to go
To kick off the second session, I noticed that when you have a torch you can light your cooking pot, what I did not realize was that this burns your cooking pot to smitherines. Nothing left but a frame of **useless** ashes.
As I was gathering resources with Lucy, minding my own business **BAM** I got hit with an attack from a Clockwork Bishop, man these things hit hard and have really good aim. I took three hits before getting away, leaving me with very low heath at the end of this play session.

fragmention

This post is still WIP. …..

https://indieweb.org/fragmention##Challenges

I’ve been digging through David Bushell’s blog over the past day, he has some really good ideas about blogging and webdev. One really interesting post I came accross is url-fragment-text-directives. I’ve long had id’s linked on my headings, though sometimes broken, or now showing the link, I’ve done my best to include them. Fragmentions extend this to allow any text to be linkable like this.

I had the grass for a hat, so I figured why not. I'm not sure if it really helps this time of year, but I thought it looked good on Woodie.
On day two I had enough materials gathered to make the garden digamajig to prep the soil for gardening. I planted the few seeds that I stole from the birds right away.

fixed long standing nvim startup error

Here’s the diff, this is it.

local M = {} M.setup = require("waylonwalker.setup") M.settings = require("waylonwalker.settings") + M.lazy = require("waylonwalker.lazy") M.options = require("waylonwalker.options") M.globals = require("waylonwalker.globals") M.keymap = require("waylonwalker.keymap") - M.lazy = require("waylonwalker.lazy") M.autocmds = require("waylonwalker.autocmds") M.util = require("waylonwalker.util") M.plugins = require("waylonwalker.plugins") M.snippets = require("waylonwalker.snippets") return M

The error #

On first install of my dotfiles I’m presenting with this flashbang of an error filling the screen with red background. Its kinda hard to read, I’m not deep into lua and reading their tracebacks. It pops up in this pager that if I scroll too far it quits and the error is gone before I know what it is or how it got there.

For the longest time it just felt like it randomly showed up without much warning.

Setting up 4G Backup with Google Fi and Netgear LM1200

I connected my home network to have 4G bakcup with Google Fi and Netgear LM1200. Goodle Fi offers free data-only sim cards that you can order from their service. It takes a couple of days, and a new sim arrives in the mail free of charge. It does pull data from your account, so if you are not on an unlimited plan be careful of how much you let go through the sim.

I’ve owned this for a few years now, but it’s been disconnected for a good six months or so. I’m not s[e what happened, but it stopped recognizing the old sim card. no need to point out the coffee stains at the end, its definitely not related

Activating the sim asked for a confirmation code shipped with the sim card, then brought me to this page.

ahrefs-cleanup-2024

This post is a big work in progress, expect it to keep getting better.

Another hit on 404’s caused by tags, was tag parsing from thoughts into posts, this cause links to the full comma separated list of tags rather than one per tag.

You can see on the website the whole dang set of tags was being treated as a single tag.

Just after the first night started I found my way back to the center of the map and made a stone campfire. I really like to use the stone campfires as they last forever, you just have to add wood. I was lucky enough to find stone by the Tall Bird to make this one on first day.

Today I ran into an interesting question, why am I being asked to configure tzdata while installing npm. Turns out th...

I always select the character _Woodie_. He comes with an axe called _Lucy_ she has some dark humor (but not too dark), I like her. She also does not wear out so you always have a weapon and way to chop wood with you.

dst session one

Wyatt is also documenting his run, while we aren’t playing in the same world we are playing together.

markdown split panel

Today I was playing with markdown split panels. I want to be able to compare and constrast occasionually, today the inspiration hit to do this using admonitions.

screenshot-2025-02-04T02-28-46-750Z.png

This is what I am going for, one admonition that is easy to remember, that nests inside of itself , and I can put as much markdown on the inside that I want.

Make MinIO Access Key

Today in my homelab I wanted to setup a new service that needed a MinIO access key. So I created a new user and a new access key with the MinIO CLI rather than poking through the ui like I have before.

screenshot-2025-02-03T02-13-38-628Z.png

The MinIO CLI has two levels of access, global and user level. Most of the commands in this post will have several ways to do similar tasks that would potentially work. We are going to prefer to use the user level commands for more control. For some commands such as listing Keys it is handy to use the global level.

markata 0.8.0

I realize that I never did a post on markata 0.8.0, so here it is. 0.8.0 was released on Jan 2, 2024, just over a year ago at this point. This was the release that we got pydantic support, and multi feeds.

screenshot-2025-02-01T02-37-59-690Z.png

Markata is leaning on pydantic for configuration and Post models. These models are filled with validators such that you can give it an empty markdown post and it will figure out some pretty sane default values for the frontmatter. From there you can progressively enhance your post with more information like title, date, tags, slug, description.

markata search

A side effect of Markata DidYouMean is that we are able to implement some rudimentary search based on slug, title, tags, and description.

I made a video of the early work on using this side effect to search for content on markata.dev.

Markata DidYouMean

Coming in Markata 0.9.1 is far better documentation. i.e. Documentation that actually exists for everything. As part of poking around I realized that I often go to look up the docs for a plugin and forget that the path is /markta/plugins/feeds, sometimes I might try /markata/feeds or /plugins/feeds.py or /feeds or I might even forget the plugin name exactly and try something like feed and get a 404. So I added a didyoumean plugin to markata that takes care of this.

I made a quick recording of this early feature, pay close attention to the url as it automatically updates to the correct page.

cold builds

Here are a list of some cold builds from my site. I’ve ran this site for a long time and would like to have some references to go back to, and wish I had kept a few profiles of cold builds laying around to compare with. The time is now lets keep some cold build links around for reference.
