Changelog

2026-08-06 UPDATE: Added guestbook functionality. Will need to do a lot more to make it spammer and hacker proof. It's probably very insecure as it is right now.

2026-10-04 UPDATE: Site now runs on Hugo. XHTML probably wasn't worth the incompatibilities and the XHTML was actually HTML5 with a XHTML extension and a few frills, so not really worth it. Hugo is not perfect, but it works for now; is faster than Org mode export and I didn't even need to convert my Org mode files, as they are supported natively! I might mirror the site on neocities some time soon, or even move there completely, but then I couldn't have my gallery and perhaps some interactive stuff that I would like to do in the future, so dunno. VPS providers are a fuaarrk, so I'm not sure whether it wouldn't be better to self-host it instead. I suspect self-hosting would require something like Cloudflare (ewww), my own reverse proxy (another VPS, defeating the whole point), or hosting it on I2P or something, effectively making the visitor numbers become zero. I don't know. For now I am glad that it works. Also please tell me if you have difficulties with this Hugo theme on Javascript-incomaptible browsers. I tried loading it in lynx, and it worked fine, so I leave it as is, however if it should depend on JS too much, I might make my own instead.

2026-06-11 UPDATE: Added notebook-like background image. Removed the "DARK/LIGHT" button, because it was depressing to look at and I couldn't pull off a notebook-like background image whilst it being in some dark color tone. Considering archiving the website further, possibly on a free web host like Neocities, so I'm not depedent on a VPS that has to be paid and maintained. Unfortunately, none of those have SSH-support, as such there will be no SSHFS on any of those, but I will make use of SSHFS for as long as I can on the VPS. I had a few bucks, so I renewed the domain for a year longer (also the eternal-dialogue.net domain, but I didn't see, which domain I renewed - a moment of retardation - so that is also there in case I will need it for some project).

2026-05-14 UPDATE: Moved the site to some cheap web hosting service, since the VPS was too expensive and the only purpose was to redirect traffic to home, but it hasn't done that in a while, so there is no difference in that regard. Ah, and because of that Tor and I2P are gone, since it doesn't seem like I can run a Tor/I2P daemon on there. Also I got tired of maintaining the server that always had some problems to fix and this just works.

2026-05-09 UPDATE: Removed the background image in favor of simple stylesheets. Added Javascript to switch between the the two themes. Site looks much cleaner now. Still no new update on Archive.org, hence leaving the old one in place.

2026-04-09 UPDATE: The old site used pandoc + a shell script to convert Org Mode files to XHTML, but that was kind of improvised, and overall lame, so I used this day to use the Org Mode export feature to convert all my files. The index is now hardcoded, and not automatically generated like it used to be. Also the webbuttons are gone, and the UP/HOME button (actually links) are kind of broken, but I will fix them, eventually.

2026-03-29 UPDATE: The page has more contrast now, has different colors, and the columns and rows of the index adjust for screen size. Also there is a new font. Thus this might require you to refresh your browser cache, so you can see the new stuff.
