Besides some smaller changes here and there, I added a page about web and phone games I play. Some of the games I list, currently three, are ones where you can add friends. So if you play one of them, feel free to add me!

Oh, Iām so excited! Iāve been using ClassicPress for my blog for a while now (which I LOVE), and the one drawback was that the IndieWeb plugins were somehow causing my comments forms to break. Well, somewhere along the line, something got fixed, because Iām able to use it now without issues!
That means my blog FINALLY supports webmentions (which I was able to test successfully), and I can use IndieAuth! Plus, I also figured out how to bridge my Fediverse account to Bluesky using Bridgy Fed:
I know the fed bridge and webmentions arenāt for everyone, but Iāve been wanting both for a while, and Iām excited that I finally did!

Wowhead is the biggest database of World of Warcraft stuff on the web. Iāve added Wowhead tooltips to pages on my site with links to Wowhead so that you can see the item/spell/achievment details without clicking through. They show just like they do in-game.
Check it out on my latest recap postās gaming section: Monthly Recap: March 2025

Nothing to show for it yet, but Iāve been working on the structure for the projects section of my website. Itās been a bit frustrating because Iām tired and Iām running into past 11ty decisions that arenāt working with the changesā¦ But I guess Iāll figure it out eventually?
(I really need to start using branches so I can commit and push blog posts without publishing half-finished structural changes at the same timeā¦)

Somebody on the MelonLand forum tried to use an old link to an old post of mine about pulp sf author C. L. Moore and got a 404. I thought I had set up HTTP 301 redirects for everything, but I must have missed this one. So I fixed it.
Except for anybody trying to access my site via Reddit or HN. They get HTTP 402 and a quote from GoodFellas. If either site wants to link to mine to make their site more valuable (Reddit wants ad revenue, and Y Combinator wants more startups in which to invest), they can damned well pay me.
Hereās the relevant bit from my .htaccess file.
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} news.ycombinator.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} facebook.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} threads.net [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} instagram.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} bsky.app [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} x.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} reddit.com [NC]
RewriteRule .* . [redirect=402,last]
ErrorDocument 402 "Fuck you. Pay me."

I did a little bit of cleaning to make my homepage a bit more reactive and pleasent to look at. No more just a wall of boring text!
I also added a barebones start at a colophon, I will start to fill it out more whenever I feel like it.

My websiteās got a stylesheet again. You can find it at https://starbreaker.org/assets/styles/screen.css if you want to pull bits and pieces out of it.
Among other things, I ripped out dark mode support and added support for the Atkinson Hyperlegible fonts if a visitor has them installed on their device. Visited links are black now, but remain underlined so that visitors can still distinguish them from surrounding text.

I have set up SSH access to the server of my Hostinger premium shared hosting plan, including generating a pair of SSH keys for this server. This means now I can directly access my websitesā folders and files from my local machineās terminal.

Nice. If you used Emacs you could use your local editor to edit server files with TRAMP.

Iāve been working on various things little by little for a while:
I added a centralized art directory page, which I donāt like the look of right now but it does the job. I plan on putting more effort into the presentation though. I also added a Pixel Art page which Iām just now realizing isnāt on the directory page yet! >>;;
The big thing though is that I now have an RSS feedā¦or Atomā¦I think. It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out if I was doing it properly. So let me know if you subscribe and itās totally broken! (link here)

Hello, and welcome back. Iām pulling your feed now, but unfortunately itās still broken.
Hello and thank you! And I am un-surprised, lol. Iāll keep working on it. (ć-Ļ-)ļ¾
EDIT: Could also be the /rss.rss file which I put in there just to see if thatād work instead, and also because the filename plus the extension made me laugh. Time will tellā¦
No problem. Youāll get there eventually.
- retired http support. website now works only via https. while supporting old browsers is neat and all its not practical ;-;

Sunnyās site; Glossy Sunny Beachy Bakeria is now online for anyone to visit! I wanted to wait until I finished some of the important pages/elements in order to publish it, but itās here! Itās finally done, Iām so happy with it. I know itās not mobile friendly, but Iām gonna work on a different layout for mobile when I figure it out.
Also I made some minor changes to Cosy Dinerās project page in order to link Sunnyās site finally.

I love the layout youāve got here! Itās so happy and colorful!
Today I finished up some image board software Iāve been working on to replace my āmeme imagesā page that Iāve been unhappy with for a while. I took a bare-bones project on Github (which is credited in the footer), and added a bunch of features that I wanted as part of my ādream software packageā:
-tagging
-sorting on back end and front end
-up/downvote system
-captcha for comments
-gif filter
There are probably still things I need to clean up and implement, but Iām really proud of what Iāve got so far!
