WeGo All-Routes Speedrun

Fri, 10 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000

I rode every single WeGo local/frequent/connector service bus route in one day, riding to at least one unique stop for that route.

Why? Why not! Also riding the bus is fun, but it can be boring during summer break and I wanna have some fun

Backstory

Last year I challenged myself to ride all 8 “frequent service” routes in at least one direction in one day, which took just under 8 hours. You can see the whole thing on my BlueSky page documented in realtime here and a summary here. Pre-planning the whole thing turned out to be an effective strategy, as with a bit of padding baked into every ride, it was easy to finish in well under the expected time for all 14 buses. But at the same. time, that’s only 8 routes, and most of the run was spent waiting on buses for a while, which isn’t really a “speedrun” in my eyes.

DVD Experiments

TLDR; I made the DVD bouncing logo in a lot of ways because I was bored (GitHub)

Story

About five years ago I was goofing around in Scratch while bored, and ended up making a lot of weird projects, one of which was a bouncing DVD screensaver logo with some not original music/SFX. Why? Why not! And that was (and still is) kind of my philosophy for these sorts of things.

Domain change

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

TLDR; I’ve moved from the awyck.me domain to the andw.me domain.

I kind of bought the awyck.me domain so I could mess around with DNS, having a proper website (hello!), and just have a nice universal shorthand on the internet. It was a perfectly fine domain, but it’s kind of hard to quickly tell someone and focuses more on my last name than my first name.

I was looking around on my domain registrar, and randomly realized that andw.me was available. Since it was relatively low-cost, while also fixing my previous issues, all while being extremely satisfying to me, I bought it and migrated all my DNS/domain stuff over to it.

Hello world!

Hello world!

This is mostly just a placeholder, but as the first post I would be remiss if I didn’t mention I won’t be taking this place super seriously. It’s mostly just a place for me to dump thoughts/ideas/opinions where I know someone, somewhere can read them. Oh yeah also there’s gonna be a lot of quick tips and tutorials as well in the reference section, mostly of things I keep forgetting how to do and want to put somewhere for future me. Do I expect this website to take off? Heck no! But being here is mostly about having fun and keeping a constant archive, while also acting as a personal landing page. So in that way, this website is already a success.
