<p><span title="General Kenobi!">Hello there!</span> They call me Will, but I tend to go by deep twisty (more on that later) or some variation of "isopod" or "bathynomus" on the internet. I like to make stuff on the computer, like <a href="https://deeptwisty.bandcamp.com/">music</a>, or <a href="https://deeptwisty.com/art">art</a>, or this website. I've heard rumors calling me such things as "canadian", "autistic", and "incalculably talented". I cannot confirm or deny any of these allegations.</p>

<h2>What's a "deep twisty"?</h2>
|
|
<p>"deep twisty" is a pseudonym I came up with to release music under, because everyone is doing it. It comes from some tweets from an <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20221214182955/https://twitter.com/SubnauticaSCM/status/1095774020446744576">official Subnautica twitter account</a> where they referred to the then-work-in-progress Deep Twisty Bridges biome as just "deep twisty". I thought it sounded funny. Funny enough to brand myself on, apparently.</p>
|
|
<p>As for "niceopod", "nice" was the best word I could think of that rhymes with the first syllable of "isopod". I feel like it sounds like I'm trying to say I'm nice. <span title="I'm slowly deprecating this username for this reason. You'll typically find it replaced with "isopod" or "bathynomus" or some other isopod-related thing, depending on availability.">I'm not</span>, it's just that the alternatives were "iceopod" and "sliceopod". Isopods are nice though.</p>
|
|
<p>I go by Will because that's my name and I can't be fucked changing it.</p>

<p>This website is written in pure HTML, CSS, and a tiny bit of Javascript with the server-side stuff done in PHP. It (and everything else I host) is hosted using Nginx on a VPS with 2GB of RAM and 1 CPU core running Ubuntu Server, with domains registered with <a href="https://porkbun.com/">Porkbun</a>.

<p>I was helped immensely in building this thing by <a href="https://www.w3schools.com/">W3Schools</a>, the <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web">MDN Web Docs</a>, the official <a href="https://www.php.net/manual/en/">PHP manual</a>, <a href="https://landchad.net/">LandChad.net</a>, Stack Overflow, and whatever disgusting bottom-feeding SEO leech sites came up first in the search results.</p>
