Journal Search - docker

I am currently working on a new blog post that should go into more detail on most of this stuff, but I figured now would be a good time to break the news:

I’M BACK ON HETZNER, BITCH!!!!!!!!!!

…because I would much rather pay $7/mo to keep this site up than $14/mo, especially when I’m still looking for a tech job.

With the switch of VPS hosts (again), I figured now would be a good time to start working on Dockerizing Everything™, sooooo now all of my services run off of Docker Compose, including this website! I still haven’t figured out a good CI/CD solution yet, but it seems like moving from Docker Compose to something like Ansible opens in a new tab would be a good place to start.

Again, most of the discussion about this will come in a blog post that I am currently writing up and should be live shortly-ish-maybe-i-hope.

I am also in the process of finally moving my desktop over to Linux full-time. I’m split between just making it a home server with Proxmox VE opens in a new tab and trying out Omarchy. opens in a new tab Vote now on your phones (by shooting me a message yelling at me about how both of these options suck ass and your setup is the objectively superior one).

Finally, because I am eternally bored being at work and following the YouTube boycott, I decided to finally add tags to my journal entries. Now, each journal entry has one or more tags associated with it, and clicking on one will bring up all of the entries with that tag. For example, if you want to see all of the journal entries where I actually talk about myself for once, look up dox. Why is it called that? I wonder :3

Since I’m participating in the YouTube blackout (more for my own sanity than anything else), I have to use an even worse service for today’s song. Whoops! You ever imagine if Metallica was a prog rock band from Australia? No? Well, imagine this. opens in a new tab cyaaaaaa

Welp, that didn’t work.

I tried creating a CI/CD system with Docker containers and Forgejo Actions… and it worked once. Now it doesn’t work.

I’m going to revert back to my old method, which involves a local node server managed with PM2, and figure out why Docker refused to cooperate later. I made this system so I didn’t have to think about pushing changes, but since I clearly have to think about this a lot more with this system, it just isn’t worth it.

In other news I just had to spend $600 to make my car usuable so if anyone wants to send me a few bucks on Ko-fi opens in a new tab I would appreciate that so much <3

This entry and the entry below it are both new now since the update that contained it never went live. Feel free to read that one too!

Finally, here’s a deep cut from a legendary rock band’s lesser-known albums. opens in a new tab ktnxbye
