  • The state of IPv6 in Resonite

    Given sessions in Resonite are hosted by the players themselves, IPv6 is very useful in this context as there are no needs to battle with CGNAT or other network shenanigans and restrictions ISPs might put in place to save up on IP space. As full native IPv6 support is currently being worked on (see GH-143…

  • The making of the Resonite sessions Discord bot

    If you are a Resonite player and are in the Discord guild, you might be familiar with the #active-sessions channel, in which a bot displays the 10 most popular sessions on Resonite as well as some stats. What you might not know, is that I’m the author of this bot, that I originally started as…

  • Deploying Hugo using GitLab pages

    It is 2025 and it’s still super easy to deploy a blog using Hugo and GitLab pages. In fact, the post you are reading right now is exactly that, deployed on my self-managed instance. But Jae, weren’t you on another host beginning from last year? Yes, last year I switched to Mataroa for the ease…

  • GitHub and IPv6 in 2025

    In this year 2025, the main GitHub domain still doesn’t serve over IPv6. Some subdomains do have IPv6 though, just… not what you would expect. For instance, avatars.githubusercontent.com: Whereas none of the other domains accessed when accessing github.com (named github.com, github.githubassets.com and alive.github.com) has IPv6. The package registry ghcr.io as well doesn’t support IPv6: And…

  • I tested Horizon Worlds so you don’t have to

    In the middle of the year, I got a Quest Pro, mainly to use with Resonite for face and eye tracking. With this standalone headset made by Facebook, came a small program that (allegedly) cost them billions to make: Horizon Worlds, their own platform. You know, the one without legs. Well, I tested it for…

  • Verkkokauppa.com DNS

    Verkkokauppa.com is a chain of web and physical stores originating from (and limited to) Finland, akin of Amazon here if you will. When trying to search for a USB-C computer mouse, IPvfoo told me that the website was accessible over IPv6, which I never noticed before. I then queried the DNS server to see where…

  • A week of Framework

    As per my usual tradition when I receive a new cool device, I have to write about it a week later, then either three months or a year later (as I did previously with my Index, or work MacBook Pro M1). As you may know, my previous laptop was a ThinkPad x200.It’s not exactly a…
