I had the same theme for over four years. I’ve made quite a few custom css and PHP edits myself, and it had been outdated for ages… But it served me well.
However, it’s now time for something new.
As always, as minimalistic as possible.
On a side note, this blog has been moved from vm1 (and one before that) a virtual machine running on a dual Xeon 3070 (2.66Ghz) at Databarn to Akama, a VM on an 8 core Xeon E3-1230 (3.2Ghz) at Leaseweb.
HTTPS affects Google Page Rank. Best idea ever. Now read this.
This is the effect, of giving a WiFi hotspot (near a window at traffic lights) two additional SSID; by coincidence the same used by the two biggest local ISPs. You can clearly see when I made the change.
Edit (07/09/2014):
I’ve now moved blog.tuinslak.org to yeri.be as domain name.
Time has come to let my once so fierce and mighty nickname aside, and, in this not-so-anonymous world, use my first name.
Old links & bookmarks will remain operational and will redirect to the new domain.
And I’m dropping “blog” all together. And, as always, SSL is running.
static.0x04.com will still host all uploaded content.
My link shortener will be at i.yeri.be. The old links will 404 but I doubt many still had the old links bookmarked. I’m not sure why I took “i”, but it sounded nice.
There’s this howto that explains how to set up the RPi as ad blocker.
I’ve two RPi’s acting a router and was already running dnsmasq. I decided to give it a try. Note that this howto can actually be used on any DNS serving Linux server.
First of all, don’t go with the pixelserv as it crashes after a few minutes.
Apache is an option that worked fine. A general hint: if you’re already running Apache or whatever on port 80, just add a 2nd static IP and make Apache listen to that.
Can be found here.
The Eurostar.com (cached copy) sitemap links to an odd directory: eurostar.com/bestkeptsecret (which was part of a viral campaign in 2006, Google tells me), which in turn redirects to a spam site… :(
Visiting that links redirect to a spammy website about real estate… Please clean up your shit -.-)
