+I’m [tiltowait](https://github.com/tiltowait). I run a [few](https://tzimisce.app/#/) [popular](https://docs.inconnu.app) [Discord bots](https://docs.botch.lol) for World of Darkness (and more specifically Vampire: The Masquerade) games. Though the tech world is replete with stories like mine, it still surprises me that I’m only in my current career because I got annoyed typing out dice rolls on my phone.
+
+This site will be a journal of dev notes, stories, etc. Almost entirely for myself and my own edification, but I need to store it somewhere, and if even one person finds it useful, interesting, or informative, why not here?

+[Railway](https://railway.com) is a great service. I’ve been using it for ~2 years now. It’s got a clean interface, good performance, and possibly the best hosted Postgres prices in the business.
+
+But it’s not without quirks. Railway instances share resources, such as compute time, memory, and IP. This is standard in the [PaaS industry](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platform_as_a_service), but for Discord bots, it kind of sucks.
+
+Discord bans IPs of bots that violate the terms of service. On a service like Railway, you might share the same IP with multiple Discord bots. If one of them is a bad actor, then Discord kicks them *all* offline.
+
+(Thankfully, this only happens a few times a year in practice, and fixing it is just a button click in the dashboard.)
+
+More, while Railway is a good price, they still need to make money. But when you could run most Discord bots on a [Raspberry Pi](https://www.raspberrypi.com), why spend $35/mo?
+
+We can do cheaper.
+
+Though Railway wasn’t affected, [the October 2025 AWS outage](https://www.pcgamer.com/software/the-multi-billion-dollar-15-hour-aws-outage-that-brought-the-internet-to-its-knees-last-week-was-apparently-caused-by-a-single-software-bug/) had me missing the days of self-hosting. When I was a teen, I’d run *nix boxen in my bedroom, wrestle with WiFi, wrestle with ATI drivers, and marvel that Doom 3 ran natively.
+
+That’s two reasons to switch. I don’t need a third. It’s time to go back.

+I first used Linux when I was 13-14. Like many nerdy teens, I went through a cavalcade of distros: Red Hat, Fedora Core (2), Slackware, Debian, SUSE, Gentoo, Ubuntu, Arch. I’m probably missing one or two.
+
+But there was another. Not Linux. [FreeBSD](https://www.freebsd.org).
+
+The BSDs are weird. They’re older than Linux. They are closer to UNIX than is Linux. They have much the same userland as Linux. But they are decidedly *not* Linux.
+
+I first tried FreeBSD around 2004. I had a brand-new Athlon64 3200+. Windows didn’t have a 64-bit version yet, and I was itching to take advantage of the extra bits (not understanding they didn’t mean much for performance). Enter FreeBSD.
+
+It was actually a failure, thanks (of course) to driver issues. A generous (not to mention patient) user on [Freenode](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freenode) spent hours teaching me how to build a new kernel. That was my first introduction to `vi` (not `vim`; the default FreeBSD install didn’t and still doesn’t come with something as new as a 1991 text editor). And after hours of work, we learned that the FreeBSD Radeon drivers just didn’t compile on amd64, so I couldn’t have hardware acceleration. I wiped the install.
+
+(Looking back, I don’t know why this was so important to me. It might have just been the principle of the matter.)
+
+Spoiler: I came back.
+
+I’m not here to convince you to install FreeBSD, so I’ll just say this: FreeBSD, like OpenBSD, NetBSD, etc. is very much *an operating system*, not a distro, and that shows itself in subtle ways. Look no further than [the handbook](https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/) to see what I mean.
