Recently, I have stumbled upon [The Cyber Vanguard](https://cyber.dabamos.de/index.html)[^fn:1], a very Web 1.0 inspired website.
I am much more of a Web 1.0 guy as I never fully got all that Web 2.0 _zeitgeist_.
The last revolution here[^fn:2] was a step in similar direction, but the hell with that.
I am remodeling my index to be an index!

And since we are on the subject, my near plans are:

-   continue [Unix and BSD history](https://michal.sapka.me/bsd/history/)
-   write about Xah Fly Keys (emacs) which I am using now
-   write a tutorial on hosting a website in OpenBSD. I already have something like this here, but I don't like it very much.
-   write about ox-hugo (which is how I author this site).
-   continue writing reviews under the sexy name _brain rots_.

But having site in constant renovation has one downside: I break RSS.
Since I move files around, and since Hugo treats the permalink as unique ID, after every move, RSS readers treat the item as new site.
I will be changing the ID to be the timestamp of post publish date (I write so rarely, that there is 0 chance of overlap), so I can move the files how much I want.
But this will change IDs of all existing pages, so your reader may treat everything here as new.
Sorry!

And btw, I have a [ko-fi](https://ko-fi.com/mmspl) now if you want to, you know, buy me a coffee.
