The Internet Vagabond dot com

My name is Bill Niblock. I'm a computer scientist by education, a technologist by trade, a gamer by hobby, and a philosopher by accident. I currently live in Buffalo, New York.

This site is a small slice of internet real-estate that I use for occasional writing. Nothing I say is visionary or profound. I will tend to focus on technology, gaming, and philosophy. All opinions my own.

To-Do

• Consider self-hosting

Latest Technology Update :: 2024-06

• After many years on GitHub, the site has moved to leverage Codeberg's static site server.
• As opposed to using the gh-pages deployment strategy, the site is now built and "deployed" using an action runner from my personal Forge to a Codeberg mirror.

Developing Locally

The best way to develop the site locally is using a Jekyll Docker container:

docker run --rm \
           --volume="$PWD:/srv/jekyll:Z" \
           --publish [::1]:4000:4000 \
           jvconseil/jekyll-docker \
           jekyll serve --config _config.yml,_config.dev.yml
