You reached my personal web page and blog. I post on technologies, projects
and ideas currently on my mind.

## Technical Technicalities 

Using a static HTML generator now called [Hugo](https://gohugo.io/).
Before I used HTML and server-side-includes.
Synchronization is done with rsync over ssh.
If you ask yourselves, why no CMS, well,
the two wikis/CMS I had before (I don't mention names) were hacked in
no time. And don't want to spend any time doing security updates all
the time.

Hosting is done on a Raspberry Pi 1 B+ (as of 20th of July 2019 it has
been upgraded to a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B) with [ArchARM](https://archlinuxarm.org/). 
I was simply fed up with the speed and the cumbersome user interface of
nowadays virtualized web hosting solutions (I don't mention names here again).
	
The [Alix 2D.13](https://pcengines.ch/alix.htm) board in the black box
underneath is running OpenBSD and is the newest and shiniest self-built
router (with stealth master-DNS, DHCP, etc.) for my local network and
my personal domain.

..and yes, the table is dirty.. :-)
