This month I've been active outdoors and went bouldering alot! I actually went bouldering outside for my first time, it was so fun!! There was a huge field of stones in the woods near Åsebø, called [Perleveggen](https://buldring.bergen-klatreklubb.no/sector/3526). The boulder was named [***Time for a haircut***](https://buldring.bergen-klatreklubb.no/problem/16336) and it was a 6A! It took some tries and I must say, bouldering outside is something else lol.

But, then I thought instead of two new slash-pages for logging your entertainment, we could just introduce one main slash-page which shows all the stuff a person wants to log on their website.
So I introduce the new slash-page `/logs` - which shows what the person is logging on their website. This could be like the entertainment-related topics metioned above, or you can further expand on it and have pages for all your runs, like [**James Van Dyne**](https://jamesvandyne.com/runs/), or your moonboard sends, like [**I do**](/logs/moonboard).

During the summer of 2022 I got hooked on watching YouTube videos about modding retro consoles, all from the GameBoy Color to the Nintendo Wii. It was like injecting pure dopamine in to my brain one video at a time lmao.
But one video, by [**Macho Nacho Productions**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqnrEpcaans), really stood out to me. Basically he made a "Super" GameBoy Color, where he crammed like 4 mods into it. I immediately wanted to try something like it myself, so I took my dusty, old, purple GameBoy Color with me back to Bergen, where I study.

In my post about the [the cozy corners of cyberspace](the-cozy-corners-of-cyberspace/), I mentioned how I'd gotten more and more fascinated by the lesser-known realms of the interwebs, also called the small web.
By exploring more around the topic, I found something called ***webrings***, which are collections of websites linked together in a circular structure, and usually organized around a specific theme! 🌐
Upon finding more and more of them, on pages like [**forveverliketh.is**](https://foreverliketh.is/) that showcases a lot of them, I found out there wasn't any particular webrings with a One Piece theme. Well, since I'm a huge fan of the anime and had some spare time, I decided why not create a webring for this? It would also be a great opportunity to test out a framework I hadn't used before, like Vue/Nuxt. 👨‍💻

## why
For the past 2-3 years I've wanted to get out of the big social media platforms, due to there being [**a new scandal almost every week**](https://www.dedigitaletuin.nl/facebook-en-meta-schandalen/) about some privacy violations, free speech censoring, and so on. I've become more aware of my personal data the past years since joining [**friByte**](https://fribyte.no), and don't want to have my next decade saved on the servers of big-tech in the same way my last decade was.

I've become more aware of my personal data the past years since joining [friByte](https://fribyte.no), and don't want to have my next decade saved on the servers of big-tech in the same way my last decade was.
Deleting platforms like Twitter/X, Reddit or YouTube wasn't that hard, but when it came to Facebook and Instagram it was more tough. This is because it's so deeply integrated to peoples lives where I'm from, and Facebook Messenger is the main way of communicating.
But, with recent news about Meta wanting to train AI on our data and [**AI-experts saying they're deleting Facebook**](https://www.tv2.no/nyheter/innenriks/ki-ekspert-na-sletter-jeg-facebook/16732885/), it's been easier getting people to understand my reasoning and want to delete my profile from these platforms.

Other reasons besides those mentioned above are for example that I don't want to keep ending up doomscrolling the same old stuff. It's just the fear of missing out making me stay longer. I want to spend my time better; read a book, meet friends, or touch grass lol. Additionally, I don't want to be *the product* anymore; like Jaron Lanier says better in the documentary film about social media, [***"The Social Dilemma"***](https://www.thesocialdilemma.com/):

I wanted to include a "little" paragraph in this section as well about why privacy matters and give a few links to read/watch as well. Starting of there's a ton of reasons why privacy matters, like safeguarding personal information, preserving autonomy and freedom, or building trust.
A good example of why privacy is something we need to protect is mentioned in Inga Strümkes book, [***"Maskiner som tenker"***](https://www.ark.no/produkt/boker/dokumentar-og-faktaboker/maskiner-som-tenker-9788248932505), on page 248. She tells us how we saw that different states in USA introduced prohibition of abortition after 2022, and it didn't take long before we knew how our digital footprint, that we leave behind every day without thinking, can be used to find out if a woman have had an abortion in a state where it's illegal.

Like many people have said that they *"don't have anything to hide"*, a lot of people do. I like how Snowden puts it in his book on page 208, [***"Permanent Record"***](https://www.ark.no/produkt/boker/dokumentar-og-faktaboker/permanent-record-9781529035698):

> *"There is, simply, no way to ignore privacy. Because a citizenry's freedom are interdependent, to surrender your own privacy is really to surrender everyone's. You might choose to give it up out of convenience, or under the popular pretext that privacy is only required by those who have something to hide. But saying that you don't need or want privacy because you have noting to hide is to assume that no one should have, or could have, to hide anything--including their immigration status, unemployment history, financial history, and health records. You're assuming that no one, including yourself, might object to revealing to anyone information about their religious beliefs, political affiliations, and sexual activities, as casually as some choose to reveal their movie and music tastes and reading preferences."*

All from gaining more knowledge on GitHub Actions to learning how Caddy works. 📚
It all began with setting up Caddy, since the VM on my server was already up and running.

He gave me some tips on using `dig` and `nmap` to get info on the DNS and network for the server. Using this, we saw that the ports `80` and `443` was marked as *filtered* when they should say *open* for a server where everything is good. Well, the ports weren't portforwarded... I forgot to do it hehe lesson learned! 😅
Next up was automating the deployment process using GitHub Actions! This setup was easily done, with some inspiration from the workflow for [**fribyte.no**](https://github.com/fribyte-code/fribyte.no). Now, the website could seamlessly build and deploy whenever changes were pushed!

Basically it's a theory that suggests that most of the content and users of the internet is now dominated by bot activity, and how the internet is just filling up with automated and AI-driven content.
