  • 2025dec18
    • add ".is-mobile-menu-active .ktwp-kupietabs-tab-div {transform: translateX(-48px); transition: transform .75s ease-in-out;}" to theme styles so kupietools tabs slide off screen on mobile when mobile menu opens.

Mike Kupietz, your humble proprietor, serving these electrons to you steaming hot from a server in the heart of San Francisco, right where the American dream rises out of the Pacific as a moist, gray fog and ascends to Heaven in a cacophony of poetry, acid rock and sarcasm.

This site brought to you by four months flat on my back in summer 2023 due to long covid, plus a whole lot of additional lovin' sweat & frustration since then. Per aspera, ad astra.

Help

For confused first-time visitors and other people still acclimating, here is a description of these little tabs to the left, as well as some other features of the site.

Open "Expert Mode" CLI Navigation - this give you the option to switch your browser's display to an old-fashioned terminal mode where you may browse this site, view pages and images by typing text commands. Just like how we used to browse the web back in 1978!

Open Visual Settings - This gives you controls to customize the visual display of this website to your liking: turn up or down the brightness, contrast, color temperature, hue, saturation, dark mode, and earthquake. Settings are saved per browser tab, so they will be remembered for your whole visit.

Open My Eyes - Have you ever been engrossed in your work, when you suddenly realize someone is staring at your screen, watching everything you do over your shoulder? If not, this simulates the experience.

Open Help - This help popup, silly! You just clicked it! Do you not remember?


New - Draggable elements! Several elements on this website, including these tabs, this popup message, and the "Hire Mike" badge in the lower right, can be dragged around with your mouse, to avoid them blocking content. Positions are remembered per tab, so as you navigate around the site, they will stay in the same place for your whole visit.

Enjoy!

CLI Website Navigation

Are you sure you want to switch to viewing this website in the "expert mode" command-line interface?

This will switch to a terminal emulator, load this page, and allow you to browse this website and view its contents by typing text commands.

Plus there might be, y'know, some fun stuff hidden in there. Just for geeks.

Let's go!
