Wearable Updates…

Well. Not much is happening. There are so many overwhelming things happening in my life right now that I’ve been unable to do anything about the wearable for months. Last time I checked, for some reason the cameras had all stopped working, old and new, and that was the last straw.

Website Updates.

I’ve realised if I’m gonna blog more, I should be happy with the site. And I’m not.

I’m not really in it for the views. If that were true I’d have quit almost right away. Part of the interconnected “blogosphere” I ain’t. But that being said, it looks pretty boring and needs more pictures. I think that’s the first thing I need to figure out.

For website redesign stuff, I want to make sure anything I do doesn’t interfere with screen readers and those kinds of accessibility things. But I’m also interested in doing something, different. I just don’t know what I want it to look like. I’ll probably use the https://csszengarden.com/ as some inspiration, I’ve always thought that concept was cool as fuck.

Update 2025

So, as some of you may know, 2024 wasn’t the best year of my life. Stage 4 cancer diagnosis, divorce, you know the good stuff. That’s put a pretty understandable pause on, well, everything. I’m finding it hard to focus and be even the minimally amount of productive I was before.

A year of nothing to say?

Well, this is embarrassing. But also, every other blog in the world at one point or another.

Things have been happening, but it’s very very slow, and I want a bit more progress before I publish the page I have simmering.

I’ve got what I need to relocate the bike’s batteries to a better location, so that’ll be done soon. Also need to clean the storage as part of the bike thing to make it much more useful all around.

I think that’s it for now. I’m not dead, just very quiet and trying to push several boulders uphill…

Project Updates, January 2023

Greetings and Salutations! Happy Gregorian New Year, 2023!

I hope your new year started on a positive note. Not so much here, but this is how it goes sometimes. I thought in order to both update the blog on what’s going on as well as help me get some things straight, I’d write an update/status on several of the front-burner projects.

ActivityPub 2: Electric Boogaloo?

I’ve just learned that apparently you can’t go backwards (yet?) in at least some implementations of the ActivityPub standard.

Theoretically I now have a follower, so this is a test to see if that person can, in fact, see it.

Hello …. Follower?

ActivityPub.

Hello readers,

Given Melon Husk setting twitter on fire, Zuckerface supporting fascism, and the other general social media nonsense, I figured this may be the simplist way to dip my toe into the Fediverse!

So hopefully this is a Hello World post, testing the ActivityPub plugin.

Other Sites & Previous Work

Some of my previous software and hardware hacks are over at my personal blog https://www.scriven.ca/~scriven/.

I hacked a RePhone DIY Cellphone, made some Waterguns with the kids, and posted about various other projects. That hacking stuff will probably be featured more here and other places in the future, but rest assured I’ll link whenever there’s something noteworthy!

The personal blog I’ll use for, well, more personal stuff I guess. Some of my art and writing and crap.

Re: Twitter

I assume I upset some rando RWNJ Kenney-supporter with some of my last posts a year-ish ago. Since then anyway, Twitter has required me to give them my phone number. As there is no way in hell I am giving that nazi site my actual phone number, nor do I have the $25 for a burner, my @scriven42 twitter is offline until further notice.

Thanks for the follows, keep doing the right thing! #PunchANazi

I’m not dead!

I’ve been busy at 4Crows HQ working on exciting stuff! Things should start to flow soon!

I grew up and currently live and work on the stolen & unceded territories of the:
