# DEV BLOG - Week 5 of 2023
I took the idea and ran with it, and now I have a droplet running a radio station on it. I had a domain that was just sitting there rotting, so screw it. I did what I had to do. Besides, I need good jams to listen to.
Today has been a craptastic adventure. I had to kill off the Ubuntu because it has made me so angry that the whole thing got physical from the anger and adrenaline and made me sick. Like physically ill. I am now an Arch user for the first time in my life. I also lost all of my collected data in the process when the backup bought the farm. And this, kids, is why you need a backup to the backup. The good part about it is that I have learned some things. Sometimes you just have to fold into the things that you are good at and familiar with, and for me on its best day is Linux.
I've been fighting with Hugo, trying to figure out a few things that were catching me and hanging me up. A YouTube video later that finally explained what in the hell was going on, and I think I might be able to do something with it now. Also been pretty depressed today, and sad. That is usually an imbalance, and I have not been eating enough, so it isn't like the normal psychological thing. I get it a regular amount of the time, and it is usually a protein thing. I can fix that, and I'm still getting closer to my target weight when I eat right. The other thing I need to figure out is working out. I'm over 50 now, so things want to be used, or they wanna break down. I gotta get my head together on this one, because I am planning to stretch this ride of life out as long as I can.
I also had a fight with nginx earlier in the day. I do cool shit, get things working, don't write them down, and then forget what the hell I did. And that was what I did here.
I'm not sure why I didn't get into Arch sooner.
