So — funny story.

I was walking down the road the other day, and boom! my optimix.dev website on Digital Ocean stopped working. Shocking, right?

Ok, it wasn’t a complete surprise…I was sending some commands to the server.

What do you mean, “Was it serious?”. I was just tweaking it a bit, you know.

Alright, I guess you could call an Ubuntu 17–22 OS upgrade “serious”. I mean, black holes and neutron stars are certainly serious. Are OS upgrades really on the same level? I suppose it’s all very subjective.

Backup. Backup. That word sounds familiar, but if you keep repeating it, it starts to sound strange and unfamiliar. Backup. Fun fact — this concept of repetition causing a word or phrase to lose its meaning for the listener temporarily is called semantic satiation.

Oh well.
