Hello world!
I spent most of this past week sick sadly, so much of my time was spent inside, rot-adjacent. Thankfully it’s cleared up a lot now, just dealing with remnant sniffles and an unpleasant cough that I’m hoping will clear up soon™️.
I went on a nice long walk yesterday, taking advantage of the actual sunny morning/noon before it started pouring in the afternoon and evening. Felt nice being able to get into the sun for a bit after having to seclude myself. I’m hoping the weather clears up this week so I can get some more walking done—I’m in desperate need of it.
Today, I found out that ALL of the code blocks on this website have been broken since I upgraded the dependencies back at the end of May, resulting in all of them having a random blank line at the end, so everything is a bit longer for no reason. Seems to be something caused by Astro from what I can see, but I have yet to create a proper reproduction. Going to do that soon after this.
I did some slight infrastructure reworking this week, moving my NixOS deployment to use agenix for managing secrets, rather than Colmena’s slightly (IMO) janky setup. I also swapped Tailscale accounts after setting up a personal OIDC thingy. Rest in peace, axolotl-map.ts.net 🫡.
I finally got unstuck in Metroid Prime 2, after being unable to execute the Screw Attack for weeks. Apparently the controls on the Steam Deck are a bit weird, and I need to hold aim (L2) for it to work properly?? I can probably try debug it in the Primehack configuration, but this isn’t too much of a problem. I just wish I known about it sooner!
And lastly, this week’s song is Telomic & Beloved in Love feat. Laura Brehm - Gravity Within
