+
+	<p><i>November 14th, 2025</i></p>
+
+	<p>A couple of months ago I migrated this server from lighttpd to nginx, with the help of some friends. 
+	  This allowed me to also have a gitea on the same server, so I've got all of that set up now. I've migrated
+	  all of my important projects over, to get away from Github and their ai bullshit. It's very nice to have 
+	  direct control over my projects now. You can check out the gitea at <a href="https://gitea.ambersplace.net/" 
+	  target="_blank" aria-label="opens external site in a new window">gitea.ambersplace.net</a>.</p>
+	 
+	<p>I'm still working on AI/bot scraping mitigations, but it's getting better. It's not really something
+	  I expected to take so much work. I actually had an issue with scrapers downloading the .git folder from
+	  this site. It's publically available on the gitea, but I blocked it just in case.</p>
+
+	<p>I've made some minor adjustments to the computers and minidisc pages, changed some wording around. I've 
+	  also added my makertube profile to the links section, and updated radmin's link to her new url.</p>
+
+	<p>That's about everything, I hope to have more soon. Thanks for reading.</p>
