I am "sl8".

Jack-of-all-trades developer, mostly with the backend.

Note: This site has been remade to purge it of proprietary, hard to maintain code.

It is now built off of a site that I had made when I was 10 and still cared about web dev.

!HEY! If you're someone who uses one of the services on this site, check out the "Info" tab.

My skillsets:

Familiarity with UNIX and NT based systems:

On both Windows and Linux systems, I have competence with usage and troubleshooting, configuration, and repair.

Experience with Git

Proper version control matters. I know how to use Git in my projects, for easier version control.

Networking knowledge

I know how to set up firewalls, network together a cluster, both on different networks and on the same network, and also, networking within containerized environments, like Docker.

Knowledge of Python and Java

Python more than Java, but I have an intermediate skill in Python, enough to work with Databases and API calls.

Hardware experience

I can build a computer off of intuition and memory, and can pick out parts to purchase for a specific use case.

Familiar with all things Minecraft

I maintain a large cluster of Wings instances, networked to a rented VPS with a reverse proxy in the middle.

Using Pelican Panel and custom eggs, me and another co-owner have built a rather impressive minecraft network.

A willingness to learn more

There is nobody alive that knows everything in the tech field. To stay competent, one must be willing to try new things.

That's why this webpage was redesigned from being just a folder in my DirectAdmin config, which I had to update manually, into one where my edits are automatically deployed whenever I commit to my private repo.

FreeCraft

FreeCraft is a minecraft network co-owned by me.

I handle the technicals.

FreeCraft is hosted on 4 machines. 3 are my own hardware running in my living room, and #4 is a VPS in St. Louis that acts as a proxy and a firewall.

It was set up with nothing but documentation, sleepless nights, and a few shells.

Visit the FreeCraft Website.

Projects

I've made a few projects recently that I believe are impressive enough to post here:

o8.lol

No, I don't mean this static web page. I'm talking about the sysadmin work needed to get my web services up!

Freecraft

See the "FreeCraft" tab for more information.

ok I'm bored, i'll fill the rest out later.

Info

About the services on o8.lol

o8.lol hosts many services. Here is a non-exhaustive list:

Why "o8.lol"?

It's short! The letter o and the letter 8 are close to eachother, and a .lol domain is cheap considering how short this domain is.

You'll need to know me more personally to get more information about it.😉

About me

I can't offer too much about me. I try to keep my digital footprint as light as possible.

All I can say is that I have no public social medias.
