I don't know how many web sites out there implement Webmention (I guess very few), but given that it has been very simple to implement, here it is.

Long live the non-big-tech Internet.

I quickly restarted the service from the platform but then it got killed again and I didn’t notice until this evening. I have now rebooted the server, maybe that will help until I get home from my camping trip with my kids.

For those who don’t care about my latest ADHD obsession, don’t worry I’m sure I’ll move on to a different one soon, and here’s a steam train…

A black narrow 2’ gauge steam train with people around it on the Brecon Mountain Railway. The plaque on the front says it was made in Philadelphia in 1930.

It’s the weekend! 🎉

I like this idea of hosting web stuff at home with the most basic stuff you have lying around (see also http://home.wezm.net/~wmoore/cgi-bin/about.cgi). We need a name for such things. Someone needs to come up with something better than #DustyDrawerComputing or #TerribleServer @sam

You were correct about my vape batteries being 5-600mAh. I shall probably not be getting into NRF board development though, $40 is bonkers pricey for stuff like this!

Points will be given for amusing my 6 and 7 year old children and immense gratitude will be given if it stops them waking me up at 5am when it’s light early in the summer.

There are some HTML validity issues I’m seeing if I put it through validator.w3.org that I will endevour to fix. Maybe it’ll help. 🤷

Here's a script to backup to Backblaze B2 with just Jq as an additional dependency (and the included curl, tar, openssl etc.). It works so far...

I’ve got a very cheap heat pipe cooler on the way from AliExpress which I hope will improve things…my other son has one and it works well.
