Thankyou so much, I really appreciate the kind words :) I actually forgot about project cartographer, been distracted by other games the past year lol, plus now I have my xbox working again so I'll likely replay halo 2 there. And yeah both nfsu games are a must from that gen, whatever the platform! Your site is such a cool collection of stuff too, I'll be keeping up with what you add.

p.s. you might find this interesting: https://massivelyop.com/2018/11/10/the-game-archeologist-halo-universe/ there was a Halo MMO in development at one point; Bungie + Ensemble Studios (Age of empires). I've never heard of it outside of that article

Thanks for the article! I did hear about this before, but just from a Reddit post I saw with one piece of concept art, so reading this article + the shared Flickr page with many other art pieces is really great and reminds me to add it to the list of things to include on my site. I am glad to hear that you got your Xbox working again too, I also hope that one day you can play Halo 3 ^_^ Thanks a lot again.

Created a new style for the Linux page (and subpages), based on the look of CDE. Also made a plain template version for free use :)

Updated wording, links and CSS on some pages. Made a sanitized (without references to my username) version of my cooking page style for free use. Reworked the Internet page to look like a WinME window of yahoo pool, and made it translate to mobile better! Also added an adoptables garden on my personal page

Your website has so much content. I didn't realize you had a link button! I'll be updating that on mine.

Expanded the games section of the Xbox page, with brief reviews, price estimates, and links if they have revived online multiplayer/system link support.

I miss the days of the original Xbox. You have a great list of games there as well.

hmmm, as expected it doesn't look great on mobile, but it does adapt to the screen better now. Will probably add a 'best viewed in landscape/desktop' note next time I update it.

Those server world maps on the other site are awesome! (also I haven't played with DokuCraft on in years, so that brings back some memories...)

It can be annoying to get a website to look as good on mobile as it does on a PC. I haven't even messed with the CSS to do that on mine. You'll get it, though. ;)

@cloak-of-holding; Thankyou! it is a labor of love, i've been exploring and mapping our world for over five years lol. And dokucraft is so good I can't play without it anymore.

@rkyros; yeah totally, i've been lucky that the other zonelets style i've used is really responsive, almost 1:1 on mobile. The sadgrl layout builder is responsive, but the way i made my style with it wasn't (mostly with fixed pixel widths vs % widths, which is what I changed today)

Never really tested it, but technically Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (last 32-bit release) has extended support until May 2033. Requires Ubuntu Pro, which is free for home users (max. 5 devices per account), and should include all flavours (like Lubuntu). I'm going to give it a try...

@rykros; of course, I just didn't have a links section when you were last active. Your support of my site in the earliest months really helped me keep going :)

@riomccloud; wow I had no idea, I disregarded pro thinking it required an enterprise account or something (I guess its 5 extra years on top of the LTS?). I'll look into it too, thankyou!

Worked very well, but app availability is pretty limited due to the 32-bitr architecture. Most Flatpak programs do not support 32-bit, and the Firefox from the repositories stopped at version 113. Mozilla APT repository provides the latest ESR version, though.

Okay sick! I think Firefox ESR for Linux gets discontinued in September, there's still some forks with support (maybe not in apt tho), and chromium + forks. I didn't know flatpak even functioned at all on 32 bit, lol. I'll add it to the list when I get back to a computer

New post about game cursors with links from relevant pages. Also changed text colour on the internet page to be more contrasted/readable.
New post about some Star Trek FPS games i played thru recently, and minor edits to other pages.
