Welcome to Teeam Nerd Stuff
Booting up a new personal terminal for tech, gaming, and assorted nerd projects. A short tour of the console.

Every couple of years I end up wanting a single place to dump the tech and gaming stuff that otherwise gets scattered across group chats, notebooks, and the part of my brain that still remembers vanilla WoW drop rates. This is that place.
What to expect
This isn’t a content farm. It’s a personal ops console for things I actually care about:
- rig builds and teardowns
- Linux tuning notes (mostly CachyOS right now)
- Windows tweaks that don’t require selling your soul
- gaming thoughts, rotations, and the occasional raid story
- small nerd projects that don’t deserve their own repo
I want posts to feel like pages out of a personal notebook — not ghost-written SEO sludge. Expect strong opinions, lots of terminal screenshots, and the occasional tangent about keyboard switches.
The stack
The site itself is built with:
# Fast, content-first, and happily static
astro + tailwind + mdx
It ships as a static build to Vercel Hobby. Every post is a plain .mdx
file under src/content/posts. That’s it — no CMS, no database, no
admin panel to forget the password for.
// src/content/config.ts (simplified)
const posts = defineCollection({
type: 'content',
schema: z.object({
title: z.string(),
description: z.string(),
pubDate: z.coerce.date(),
tags: z.array(z.string()).default([]),
heroImage: z.string().optional(),
draft: z.boolean().default(false),
}),
});
Ground rules
- If it’s not honest, it doesn’t get posted. No sponsored fluff.
- Screenshots over stock photos. Always.
- If the code snippet doesn’t run, it doesn’t go in the post.
- Thunderfury-era grinds are canonically harder than modern grinds. This is a non-negotiable site policy.
The main character panel
You’ll see a Blood Elf Fury Warrior wielding Thunderfury and Sulfuras on the front page. That’s not branding — it’s a trophy case. Two weapons, two very long grinds, one very specific era of my gaming life. The rest of the site is not a WoW blog.
What’s next
I’ve got drafts in the pipeline on:
- tuning CachyOS for low-latency gaming
- my current ROG Flow Z13 travel setup
- a terminal-first workflow for note-taking
If any of that sounds useful, stick around. Otherwise, thanks for the page view — the uplink appreciates it.
