Hello! My name is Michael, I usually go by my online alias Gigabyte.

Welcome to my website! Here I just write about subjects and make videos on others. My primary focus of this website is to share my hobbies with the world, and throw a few laughs along the way!

Sounds chiche, but I'm really doing what I love by being here.

Please feel free to look around! I have plenty of projects and I'm more than happy to continue making some more.

Happy Browsing! -Gigabyte

That's right! This site is more official!

Even with me being a complete nobody at the moment: I'm still putting money into my site.

Now the url is much easier to remember, and since I'm paying for neocities: I can do alot more with my site than before.
One thing I didn't even consider was uploading my music to my site wouldn't have been entirely possible since that's a paid feature.

But you gotta pay bills somehow.

One gripe I do have about the whole setup process is acutally getting the domain set up and ready to go.

The tutorial on how to set up an external domain wasn't very clear, so I ended up spending a couple days figuring out why my domain wasn't connecting to neocities.
Come to find out, on the NameCheap Control Panel: The host isn't a label, and is actually a kind of command (That's the best way I can explain it, due to my imited knowledge)

So instead of the host being "Neocities" it needed to be an "@" symbol. Go figure.

The documentation didn't really say that, and it took me reading a StackOverflow post to get it.

But: It's all up and running now, bit of a late post. Better late than never.

Thanks for reading!

I could just use Tumblr for this, but I feel this needs a proper front page article.

I miss the internet of 2012, so I decided to recreate a portion of it using my website.

I think it came out great, and perfectly captures what I love and miss about the internet of the late 2000's and early 2010's

Skeuomorphism, ribbons, a functional layout that gets the point across, and pure good ol' passion!

This site was tested and working on Chrome v20 from July 2012. So theoretically: You should be able to render this site using a proxy!

I will say: It's a stark difference from the landing page, but I'm perfectly fine with that. Just expect some broken css when you use an older browser. It should work just fine, otherwise.

I'll write an article explaining how to do that soon. For now: Welcome to my comfort zone!
