Too cheap to host, too angry to die

So, I finally decided to stand up a github backed blog, since my previous blog hosting moved to my friend’s woodshed, which had a rather indifferent approach to clean power. Restarting zotonic every time the machine came back up was too much work, and writing an init script felt like too much work, too.

After a few months of the blog being completely offline, I decided to dust off the old github pages blog repo I tinkered with way back in 2009. I threw away my old bumbling attempts and cloned the jekyll-bootstrap repo and got hacking. The only reason it looks pretty is that this is the default theme; I hate CSS even more than I hate writing init scripts.

Eventually I’ll probably re-post my ‘classic’ posts from the old blog, but for now I’m going to try to write some new stuff.
