Friendship has ended with Mastodon... Not really, but I'm on Bluesky now.
I’m on Bluesky now, my handle is @realja.me so go follow me.
馃敆 Alexia @cyneko.eu: Bluesky, and what Bluesky is not.
It’s a very well written post about the misconceptions of Bluesky’s AT Protocol, the protocol enabling decentralization (independent of ActivityPub, which is used as a source of comparison throughout the article).
Random thoughts about Surface hardware (RIP Microsoft's phone line, again)
Permanence on the web
Stuff goes down on the internet a lot. Sometimes it makes me sad.
Progress and ideas for rbxpack
I started working on rbxpack last week, here’s what’s up with the project.
Musing on a bundler for old Roblox projects
I’ve been thinking about if it’d be worth it to make a tool that can make it easier to distribute versions of my games for both the Novetus and Only Retro Roblox Here launchers. Specifically, this tool would manage the game’s assets - the images, music, and other media.
(Video Draft) Full introduction to classic Roblox gamedev with Novetus
A tutorial on making a game in the 2009 Roblox engine from scratch. It’s the script draft for a video I plan to make.
Why I'm using the (unofficial) Youtube Music desktop app

2 Opera 8 quirks with the simple layout
I was testing this with Opera 8. I wasn’t sure which version the DSi browser was built on (my target when making this layout), so I just went for the lowest one, and a bit lower to be safe: Opera 8.
Thinking about the simple layout
I think it’s kinda funny that I am motivated to make this alternate version, but not to actually write posts.
Simple layout, why not?
I made an alternate, minimal version of my website. You can find it on the sidebar, or head to simple.realja.me.
Website snowstorm effect
For the holidays, I added a simple snowing effect.
Spooking Out 1 year anniversary!
November is upon us! Did you have a good Halloween? And are you aware that Spooking Out, the 2010 Roblox game by me and a friend, is now a year old (give or take a few days)?
Jailbreaking a Kindle Voyage and installing KOReader
I love my 2014 Kindle Voyage, actively been using it for almost 10 years now. But after finding out update support ended a while ago, why not finally jailbreak it and install more open and featureful e-reader software?
Installing the latest Ruby with rbenv on Debian
I decided to switch from running Ruby natively on Windows to WSL, because Ruby on Windows is pretty bad. Installing the rbenv tool to manage multiple versions of Ruby is simple, but in order to add (by compiling) a Ruby version, there are a few dependencies to install.
Spooking Out's Modern Roblox Port
