Improve the contrast

@alkyilcycloalke you mean like the visibility of the text? Because the point is, those are the Blender Dumbass colors. The background is this washed out greyish bluesh thing. And the foreground it yellow. Why text looks quite good on this background. I can try black text. But I believe it will look crappy.

Okay, I changed the background. I hope it is better this way. I mean it look way better to me.

@alkyilcycloalke lol after all this time I ended up actually making a login system. Though I had to hack it into existence since I didn't plan for it at all. But it seems like it works.

I would like your site to have a mirror in Clearnet! I don't want to start Tor Browser and connect to Tor for the sake of one site xD

And thank you for your articles

This is the most working way I found to connect to my website from a normal browser without installing anything.

https://www.4everproxy.com/tor-proxy

If you are using Brave it should just work normally. Though you may need to press a little Tor button in the address bar for it to understand that you want a Tor window. I don't know why .onion links do not load automatically in Tor Window.

Also for almost every browser there is a Torification plugin. One I know is Tor Button. My dad uses it on Chromium to connect to this site. On his other computer he uses only Tor Browser for all browsing.

I don't think I will be able to make a clear-net link to this website in the near future since I host it directly from my computer and I have a shitty network ( including the router ).

There might be a good Tor to Web proxy where I could get a good static link. If I find one, I will start sharing it too. So far I didn't find one.

Wow, you responded quickly. Thank you for the information. Actually about a month ago I created an issue in the repository of a popular Tor proxy (Tor2Web): https://github.com/tor2web/Tor2web/issues/387

I have not yet found a Tor2Web server that works unfortunately. If you find one. Tell me.

Revork login system so it does not leak password as plain text.

@Madiator2011 you have a point. But as of now I have no idea how to make a login password system like this without JS. Maybe you know. And yes, if I learn how, I will implement it myself here.

I'm testing an idea, please ignore this.
Trying to make the markdown parser recognize text written in a fountain format and render it as a screenplay.


EXT. SOME LOCATION - NIGHT

Two people come into the room. JOHN and MARK.

MARK

How are you doing, John?


John started paying attention Mark.

JOHN

You know, Mark, so much stuff is on my head right now. I don't even know where to start.




This should be already after the script part.


INT. JOHN'S HOUSE - DAY

John is talking on a phone to Mark.

JOHN

Forget about what I told you last time. It is not important.


MARK

What are you talking about?




Again, should be normal text. And the rest of markdown should still work.

Attempting a way to suddenly change into script mode



Should be script-like

JOSH

Hello world.




JOSH
This is not script-like



JOSH

Script like again.

Script like again.

I had to rewrite my one spaghetti code noodle of a server code to be something a bit more worthy of having on a normal domain. Something a bit more workable. And so I did it. And this time I made sure the software will be written not only for myself, but for anybody who would like to have a similar website.

I'm Not Even Human ( a film that I made in 2018 ) has an original score written by me. This original score is also the first time I used MIDI to compose music instead of playing it on the electric piano. The first song "Explosion" was originally composed and recorded using the piano, but the sound quality of the piano was nowhere near where I wanted it to be for the movie. So for the first time I touched MIDI and redone the song in MIDI, which sounded great. So I made all of the original score for the movie in MIDI apart from 3 songs. The Bill's Into was recorded with live guitar. Abstraktation was improvised on the piano. And the final Bonus Track was recorded the same way as my album The Pentas.
