I use Arch BTW

Hello World
from Korea!

I'm Noa Himesaka, a student in Gyeonggi, South Korea. I help keep Linux running on Intel Macs, and I run a pile of self-hosted services called the YuruVerse from home.

See what I built Say hi

This page used to say “Nothing else to see here, so just press the back button.” That was fair in 2020. Now there's stuff. Yui Funami has been telling me to update it.

Who even am I?

Student, with paperwork

English for International Conferences and Communication at HUFS. I used to call myself an “Amateur Translator” as a vibe. It's an actual degree programme now!

Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (HUFS)

Also my GitHub location field.

Bought lots of audiophile stuffs

I wrote a Roon plugin for my desktop shell and an MPRIS bridge for my media keys, plus a guide to running TIDAL Connect on a Gustard R/A26. Easily the most expensive hobby on this page, and I'm done buying. I regret none of it.

Stuff I run

The YuruVerse: self-hosted services since 2021, nearly all named after YuruYuri. Yui is technically in charge. Everything runs from Gyeonggi except the package mirror, which is on Oracle Cloud in Seoul.

It all lives at funami.tech

Chat, the fediverse instances, the Minecraft server and the package mirror each have their own page over there. More current than anything I'd write here.

Stuff I build

I'm a member of the t2linux project, which exists to make Linux behave on Intel Macs with Apple's T2 chip. The official Arch install instructions pull the kernel and a few packages from my repo, off my mirror. I also run the project's Matrix homeserver at chat.t2linux.org.

The rest is on GitHub. Go look at it.

Around the web

Four of these are mine and federated. GitHub and Steam are the holdouts.

Mastodon @noahimesaka1873@funami.tech Main account. Locked, so follow requests go through me. Bluesky @noa.codes Same domain as this page, hosted on my own PDS. My handle is my website. GitHub NoaHimesaka1873 Where the code lives. Mostly weird stuff, sometimes useful. Iceshrimp @himesaka@noa.codes I post here less often. It exists for vanity, of course it does. Lemmy @noahimesaka1873@lemmy.funami.tech I run this instance. Of course I do. Steam 히메사카 노아 My ga(y)ming profile. But I mostly play Minecraft.

Or just email me

himesaka+SPAM[at]noa[dot]codes Honestly no idea if that still fools crawlers.

Mostly goes to HRT. Yui gets the rest for electricity and disks.
