+# About my website
+My website is the culmination of all my knowledge, compiled into 1 place. It not only contains all my projects, but it in itself is a project. Making sure this website works properly is a tall order, especially considering it's self hosted.
+
+## The Website
+The website itself is written in python, using the Django framework, and a SQLite database. For what I need it's more than overkill, but hey, why not!
+
+I went with the Django framework because it's what I use with at work, as well as the fact it's simple, clean and easy. It also allows for some server side assets, eg blogging.
+
+The only reason I have a database is because certain sections require it. For this reason I went with SQLite, because it's really lightweight and simple.
+
+## The server
+The website is hosted on my UK VPS. Previous versions have been hosted on 1&1 and MyWindowsHosting.
+
+The Django application itself is served using waitress. This get's it's port from a custom reverse proxy allowing me to host multiple sites on a single server easily. This is the same one I use for local development. The main web-facing server is nginx, because it's simple to setup, and damn fast!

 # Student Server
-Back when I was in college, we needed a server for computing students to learn how to FTP, and script on a server using python CGI and [http://eev.ee/blog/2012/04/09/php-a-fractal-of-bad-design/#an-analogy](PHP), as well as possibly for some students coursework. Fortunately, the college already had one, running the IT students microsite for extra course information. The problem was that it was majorly out of date, and no one really new how to use it properly. It was up to me and my friend Alex to bring the server up to date, and make it ready for the students who needed it.

Meaning we could set things up exactly how we wanted them, and install the tools we needed.

 ## User Creation
+I knew we would need user accounts for all the computing teachers, the students doing A2 computing. I wasn't expecting this to amount to over 50 user accounts that needed to be created, and permissions setup for their accounts. Fortunately Alex had started writing a basic script for this, which I quickly modified.

It was then that I realied that I would need to write a script to do this in any useful amount of time. Fortunately Alex had started writing one with a small amount of logic, so I had something to work off to get this done, as this was my first major linux project.
+The basis of the script was to load information about the users from a database I had created (by hand) with all the required students in, create users based on this information, and configure the permissions for the user and their home directory. The script also allowed for manual entering of users with the same permission template, in case single users needed to be created. An additional feature that I added which has proved useful now that I've left is the ability to delete users manually, and from that original database, to make sure that no student will have access to the server once they have left, well, other than me that is!

+Because a lot of the accounts are still active, and that new user accounts are being created in the same way the exact script cannot be shown, for security reasons.
 
-The script I used to create these files can be found below, hosted as a gist on github. Unfortunately some of the information has been redacted to prevent giving too much information that could be considered a security threat to the server. The script may not work in this redacted state, however all the core logic has been kept.
+## What next?
+Now that I've left college, I've passed on the server to other people, although I do still have an account. From what I hear, fewer students are using the server. However, they have made the microsite look infinitely better!

 ## Easter Eggs
 One of the key features of this take on space invaders (and unfortunately the thing I spent the most time on), is the easter eggs. There are a few dotted around the game, which make the game either much easier, or way more fun! At the moment, there are 3 main easter eggs, the first enabling the other 2. If you would like to know what they are, click the button below. If not, pay the game and try and find them, or search through the source to find them (it's not too hard through the source).
 
-As you will see (If and when you find the easter eggs), most of them are completely useless, and completely unrelated to the game or anything else. The main reason they were put in was because i'm friends with people that pester to the point it's just easier to give in. Hence there are some really very odd ones!

 The premis is very simple, whenever it sees a hipchat emoticon code, like (notsureif), it replaces it with an emoticon. If only writing the code could have been this simple! I started writing the plugin in firefox, using [Jetpack](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Jetpack), which uses Javascript. The initial stages of the code were very simple, but I encountered problems making sure that anything loaded after the page was loaded (such as a facebook message), be changed too.

+# Yoga Pal
+
+Once I started work, I bought myself a _Lenovo Yoga 3 14"_ laptop, because I needed a thin and light for trains etc. Unfortunately this came with windows, which within 10 minutes was running Ubuntu Gnome! Ubuntu greatly increased the performance, but I had to sacrifice all the screen, touchpad and keyboard customisation when changing 'modes'.
+
+I found [this thread](askubuntu.com/questions/450066/rotate-touchscreen-and-disable-the-touchpad-on-yoga-2-pro-in-rotated-mode) on _Ask Ubuntu_ with someone else trying to find a solution to this, to find a nice way of rotating the screen when in tablet mode. On the thread was a really nice simple [script](http://askubuntu.com/a/485685/432138) that rotated the screen perfectly, and did the touchscreen too. This script worked great, doing exactly what it said it did, nicely and quickly, however it wasn't a great solution for me. Yes it worked, but it didn't allow me to change anything else, like the touchpad.
+
+So I started working on my own CLI, based off the above script, to allow me to tweak everything, so the laptop can be used as it was intended.
