Update Log

2023/12/01

Switched to the Christmas theme yet again.

2023/11/13

Clarified and corrected a few minor details and fixed some minor grammatical issues in the ADOM article.

2023/08/18

Added a new article, A Tale of Two Rilians (and a Legolas too).

2023/01/07

Reverted the Christmas theme and made a one-word typo correction to the “Nostalgic Retrospective: Super Mario All-Stars” article, which I initially forgot to publish, intended for December 28th. I also corrected an incorrect date in this file which was obviously a lazy copy+paste job in regards to the typo correction in the “Comic Chat” article.

2022/12/25

Corrected the timing of Bowser’s rampages in the “Getting Back Into Mario” article.

2022/12/24

Added a new article, Getting Back Into Mario.

2022/12/01

Switched to the Christmas theme again, because I still like it.

2022/09/26

Updated the “Links” page, adding Cidoku’s site and updating the links to Dig Deeper and the Babel Doom mod.

2022/09/07

Added a new article, The Least-Bad Way To Play Baldur’s Gate/Icewind Dale on GNU/Linux, and slipped in an update to the “About Me” page since I no longer use Pale Moon.

2022/08/27

A few more tweaks to the Hellpoint article in various areas, and the addition of a review of the DLC content, finally.

2022/07/24

One more tweak to the Hellpoint article. I realised I was mistaken about no unique items being behind eclipse doors, in part due to a bug in my initial playthroughs that made it very likely to receive the Depraved suit early.

2022/07/16

Deciding I disagreed with my past self about the viability of dodging, I altered the relevant area in “Review: Hellpoint” to instead include slightly more information about shields and avoid talking about dodging altogether.

2022/07/14

Excited over the new DLC release for Hellpoint, I looked over “Review: Hellpoint” and corrected a number of minor spelling and grammar issues and further clarified a few ambiguous statements.

2022/05/21

Corrected a typo in “Setting Up MS Comic Chat in Wine” – the single quotes around the execution of CChat.exe have been removed and spaces escaped, as “~” doesn’t expand in quotes.

2022/05/14

Added a new article, Setting Up MS Comic Chat in Wine.

2022/05/03

Added a new article, Nostalgic Retrospective: Super Mario All-Stars. Added “The Mushroom Kingdom” and “Mermaid Elizabeth’s Microsoft Chat Resources” to the “Links” page. Added a note about dark themes to the main page.

2022/03/04

Corrected the link to “Koshka’s Kingdom” to reflect the recent relocation.

2022/02/10

Retroactively created this update log to track reader-facing changes. Adjusted Neocities Management Script’s article’s link to the script to a local copy. Adjusted Game Menu Engine’s copy of its program to include a plain-text version in addition to the pretty copy to bring it in line with the former; however, to avoid giving the impression of any actual content changes, the “Last Updated” lines are not being adjusted in either article or the index.

2022/01/11

Reverted the glorious holiday theme.

2021/12/02

Changed to a glorious holiday theme.

2021/11/25

Added a new article, Neocities Management Script.

2021/09/08

Added a new article, Review: Hellpoint.

2021/08/23

At the suggestion of a reader, added a link to the actual tmux issue in The Illogic of Programming instead of merely alluding to it.

2021/07/10

Added a new article, The Illogic of Programming.

2021/06/12

Adjusted the rendering of code blocks in small windows; it should wrap better now.

2021/06/03

Added a new page, About Me. It felt mandatory.

2021/05/24

Added RSS headers to every page (except the 404 page) for user convenience. For additional convenience, also added a “last updated” marker to each article on the index. Added a hover effect to links because it looks cool.

Adjusted footnote handling by adding a “Notes” header wherever they are present.

2021/05/17

2021/05/06

2021/04/24

Updated How This Site is Built to correct a mistake related to applying patches that caused accidental global category patching instead of targeting the intended article.

2021/04/01

Added a new article, How This Site is Built, and tweaked the main css slightly.

2021/03/28

Added the GZDoom Babel mod homepage and the “Spyware Watchdog” page to “Links”.

2021/03/27

Added an RSS feed to the main page and made a few small adjustments to accommodate it.

Added the “Links” page and the “I stand with RMS” banner. Adjusted the index page to list articles alphabetically.

2021/03/20

Re-organised the table of contents in Doom Primer to make it less confusing and more useful.

2021/03/17

Updated PCem Networking with information on DOS and cleaned up the CSS a bit more to make the code samples look nicer. Adjusted Doom Primer’s aesthetics slightly to account for the css adjustments.

2021/03/16

Added a new article, PCem Networking.

2021/03/13
