After a month of trials, I finally built a stable custom Android rom for my old device. I now even tried applying backported security patches. All is good.
Frequent evening bike rides while stargazing with clear skies on a remote area has been the highlight of these past few days together with my listening parties.
The bicycle is a freedom machine. Not only will it take you where you want to go under your own power, but it disdains the bonds of pavement and settled map as well. In fact, the only thing that holds the bike back is a lack of imagination, which explains why kids ride their bikes in places adults wouldn’t think to.

Between you and me, I suspect that the simple act of riding a bike regularly will actually expand your mind, or, at the very least, your sense of where you can get under your own power. In this sense, I pity the fools who move themselves only by automobile. They take dead-end signs literally. They live in a horribly proscribed world.
Rise up early, tried to chill for a bit, remembered to fix some deprecated functions in Hugo, and suddenly this website is now using v0.102.0 version, which is latest as of today. Nice holiday.
I’m starting again to make some minor tweaks in the site and these changes are mostly done in Hugo. I am using a version from two years ago and I need to keep up with the current one just for fun.
Apparently, I can’t build the site using the versions staring from v0.93.0 so I am currently stuck in v0.92.2 which is still fairly impressive as I haven’t done any major changes in the code to accommodate such feature updates.
When the right time comes, I’ll sit with this again to rewrite some things to use the current version. Well, if it happens in the near future. I am just glad to be back writing some nonsense again in this space. Cheers.
I fully used Google Services for my Android phone for the past 3 months. That is quite a long time for me for quite a while. Since I’ve been encountering some stuttering and frequent slow downs, I decided to finally wipe the memory and flash another ROM, not fully ungoogled but still with microg.
With my use case for that duration, I really do not need Google services. Time to dig deep again to current Android development, I hope I can keep up.
On the desktop side, openSUSE Tumbleweed still gives me excitement everyday of using it. This past few weeks also has been big for Linux gaming with new developments.
