# Site Update - Farewell WordPress, Hello Obsidian Publish Date: 2025-11-20 After many faithful years on WordPress, the relentless march of plugin/theme incompatibilities and major version updates finally broke the site beyond reasonable repair. Rather than fight another losing battle with PHP versions and deprecated code, I decided it was time for a clean break. So here we are: the site reborn on **Obsidian Publish**. I’ve refreshed the existing pages to work with the new structure and linking system, and I finally added a proper home for one of my favorite old projects: the [[sao|SAO]] badge I built for DEF CON 26. It’s been sitting in a dusty corners of the internet archives for years—now it has a permanent spot. If you’re one of the rare souls who stumbles across this little corner of the web, thanks for stopping by. I hope you enjoy poking around and find something that makes you smile (or at least raises an eyebrow in curiosity). More to come as inspiration and free time permitting. 🚀
