Welcome to my website!

Ramblings and thoughts about tech, free software, and hobbies of my life, shared bit by bit.

Enjoy your stay here!

Hey! I'm Joel (a.k.a joelchrono). A random guy from México lindo y querido! I am a hobby collector, fake fan of many things, foss enthusiast, gamer, mechatronics engineer, and of course, a blogger

You are visiting my personal website. Here you can see some of my thoughts and ramblings about tech, gaming and other hobbies, my favorite of which is origami. I hope you enjoy your visit! Take your time and explore as much as you want, there’s plenty of sections to dive into!

I'm really into music, this text will be overwritten by the latest song I listened to if you enable Javascript, maybe something by Miki Matsubara or Daft Punk.

Got mail, and went cycling! - W20

Buying a bike

Welp I ended up purchasing a bike so I decided to write some thoughts about it.

New desk and keyboard

I had the chance to get a new desk, and a mechanical keyboard while we are at it, so now I got a new setup! Very productive stuff.

Music in my head

Sharing some of the songs that I have constantly playing inside my head whenever I don't wear earphones and I want to entertain myself

Week Notes W20

Here are my notes for the past week, from May 13 to 19, 2025

Early Computing Memories

I've been quite busy with other things, but today I decided to try and share my earliest memories with computing.

Using Jekyll's collections to share origami

I created a new section on my website to share my origami posts, which have taken over my Mastodon account lately. I decided to have a section where I share pictures of them and tutorials (if available).

I started learning Touch Typing

A few days ago I decided to learn how to type faster. I still have a long way to go, but I am getting better every day.

Support me

You can support me in many ways, either via PayPal, Liberapay or Ko-fi

I don’t use crypto personally, but if you want to give me some, there is the option too. My domain provider actually lets me renew it with that! So it doesn’t go to waste :P

Monero I only use Monero since at least its something anonymous and privacy respecting!
