* Rewriting a tor wrapper in JavaScript to posix shell script (self-challenge #1) - TODO: find it and upload it on a git repository
* Contributing to a project written in OCaml (self-challenge #2) - Yep, that was Logarion, hehe
* Writing a set of shell scripts and uploading them on a git repository - Repository URL: https://gt.kalli.st/novaburst/posix-sh-tools
* Maintaining my personal Alpine overlay active, and updating it whenever needed - Repository URL: https://gitdab.com/novaburst-dev/aports
* Reading e-books on my computer - See post ID #d239d2cb
* Basically leaving Telegram as a platform - Only using it for purposes other than messaging
* Converting CSS3 files into CSS 2.1 - Context: just like HTML5, CSS3 is a pseudostandard
* Writing posts for my blog , and updating existing ones (while making it available outside HTTP as well) - Unironically with Logarion that's really simple and painless to do
* Interacting on the following protocols (either actively or passively) - ActivityPub (mostly Mastodon, though I don't do that frequently) - E-mail (mailing lists) - IRC (mostly at irc.tilde.chat) - XMPP (i'm hanging out at four chats, more or less)
* No longer using the smartphone - 1. it's a pain to actually use - 2. even though the charger works fine, the device doesn't go well with it
* Being busy on studies, this is the last year so trying to do my best - Seriously I want to get this done
* Re:initialized my personal logarion git branch, and prepared a patch. - The current branch is now 'mirror' instead of 'wired' - I'm mostly tinkering with the code so the branch may disappear randomly :P
* Occasionally writing short posts on my twtxt microblog
* Abandoned the modern web - It's a lost cause - Chromium itself has a lot of CVEs for each version - And forget about Firefox, it's already dead
* Made my own build of 'st' (sort of) to use it as a replacement to LXTerminal on my computer because: - LXTerminal depends on GTK+3 , it's practically impossible to build it with GTK+2 on Alpine, and - I can pair up st(1) and tabbed(1) and have them work just fine. - Terminal emulation doesn't need to be so complex.
* Improved the code of my fork of static-site-scripts, inheriting some stuff from Logarion and saait
* Passively learning new languages (both human languages and programming languages) - Can't do it actively just yet
* Managed to compile few toolchains on my computer , though I wouldn't consider it an achievement.
