<h2>Things I've Done</h2>
|
|
<a href="/youclient"><h3>YouClient</h3></a>
|
|
<p>
|
|
My middle school gave each student an incredibly weak Chromebook
|
|
infested with blockers and spyware, and didn't allow us to bring our
|
|
own computers. Since one of my strongest skills at the time was web
|
|
dev, I made an alternative YouTube client. The entire thing is a
|
|
single html file, making it easy to distribute and run. Advantages
|
|
over using the official YouTube website are faster loading, no ads,
|
|
tab customization, anti-unload, no browser history, and no spyware
|
|
spying.
|
|

<h3>Linux</h3></a
|
|
>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The kernel is the core of the operating system. Linux is an
|
|
alternative operating system kernel, similar to the Windows or MacOS
|
|
kernels. It can run on nearly any device (including PCs and Macs),
|
|
and is used by Android. One of my favorite things to do is mess with
|
|
configuration files on my
|
|
<a href="https://archlinux.org">Arch Linux</a>
|
|
+
|
|
<a href="https://hypr.land">Hyprland</a>
|
|
system. Over the last more than a year, I've settled on an (in my
|
|
opinion) nearly <i>perfect</i> configuration.

|
|
><h3>Notes</h3></a
|
|
>
|
|
<p>
|
|
I'd always wanted to use a notes app, but I never liked any of the
|
|
options. Instead of paying with my information, time, or money for
|
|
one that someone else made, I decided to make my own. I wrote the
|
|
server in Go, the language which I believe is best for anything to
|
|
do with servers, and the app in Android Studio using Kotlin. After
|
|
completing the server, I accidentally deleted the source code,
|
|
prompting me to recode it. It's finished now, and you can view the
|
|
most likely terrible source code for the
|
|
<a href="https://git.miningtcup.me/MiningTcup/noteserver"
|
|
>Notes server</a
|
|
>. Although I don't plan on giving out the source code for the app
|
|
because it's so terrible, you can download the
|
|
<a download href="notes.apk">Notes APK file</a>.

<h3>This Website</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This website is meant to be a showcase of everything I do. You may
|
|
have noticed it's a tad bit minimal, and I'd like you to know that's
|
|
a design choice. I can make something cooler than this, but that's
|
|
just not what I wanted for my personal website. This website is
|
|
meant to be as correct and usable as possible - this means no low
|
|
contrast, no gradients, extremely minimal scripts, and proper tags.
|
|
It even works well in

<h2>Services I Run</h2>
|
|
<a href="https://git.miningtcup.me/MiningTcup/website">
|
|
<h3>Static Webserver</h3></a
|
|
>
|
|
<p>
|
|
That's what you're using right now- my website! It's a classic Nginx
|
|
webserver. Notice how fast it loaded? That's what happens when a
|
|
website is written without any libraries, tracking, or external
|
|
fonts. Additionally, this includes a
|
|
<a href="/maps">map</a> frontend using the
|
|
<a href="https://openfreemap.org/">OpenFreeMap</a>
|
|
public instance. I also have a collection of questionably
|
|
redistributable files in my <a href="/archive">archive</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<h3>DNS Servers</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Back in middle school, some friends and I found a way to disable the
|
|
school Chromebook's spyware. While proxies were disabled and vpns
|
|
(almost) impossible to set up, we were free to change the DNS
|
|
servers of any network except(?) the schools. This gave us the power
|
|
to block any domain we wanted, including the domains which would
|
|
load blocklists or send away all our data. The plain DNS server is
|
|
run using BIND 9. Not currently active.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<a href="https://git.miningtcup.me/"> <h3>Git Server</h3></a>
|
|
<p>
|
|
GitHub is slow, annoying, and trains LLMs on everything you upload.
|
|
My Git server is <i>very</i> fast (for me, at least),
|
|
annoyance-free, and <i>doesn't</i> train LLMs on your work without
|
|
asking.

<h3>Kiwix Server</h3>
|
|
</a>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<a href="https://kiwix.org/en/">Kiwix</a> provides offline browsing
|
|
of websites, primarily wiki-like resources, including
|
|
<a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Main_page">ArchWiki</a>,
|
|
<a href="https://www.wikipedia.org/">Wikipedia</a>, and
|
|
<a href="https://devdocs.io/">DevDocs</a>, allowing access to
|
|
resources in an internet outage or while travelling.

<a href="https://mozhi.miningtcup.me/"><h3>Mozhi Server</h3></a>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<a href="https://codeberg.org/aryak/mozhi">Mozhi</a> is a proxy for
|
|
several online translators, such as Google Translate, and is used by

<a href="https://invent.kde.org/office/crow-translate">
|

Crow Translate
|

(by <a href="https://kde.org/">KDE</a>).

<a href="https://arch.miningtcup.me/"> <h3>Arch Linux Mirror</h3></a>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Having my own Arch Linux mirror means my updates will be just about
|
|
instant.
