			<h1>Naming my relay</h1>
			<p>Day 00290: Tuesday, 2015 December 22</p>
		</header>
<p>
	We headed to Springfield today, but we did not have time to run all of the errands that we had planned.
	Additionally, I was not able to get to the grocery store to buy the vegan bread that I wanted.
	Unfortunately, getting vegan bread here in Coos Bay takes way too long to be feasible, as the store that carries it is on the far side of town, so I never go buy it.
	I had hoped to pick the bread when we were in Springfield for that reason.
	I did manage to find a used blanket that appears to be warm at a thrift store though, so hopefully my nights will be less cold.
</p>
<p>
	When I set up my <abbr title="The Onion Router">Tor</abbr> relay, I tried to name it &quot;cepo.hn.y.st.&quot;, the <abbr title="fully qualified domain name">FQDN</abbr> of the server that runs it.
	However, <abbr title="The Onion Router">Tor</abbr> does not like the dots.
	Having no decent name I could give it that does not contain dots, I gave up and decided to have the server be nameless.
	I came up with a better idea though today, that I will probably implement tomorrow.
	If I am to name it, it needs to be a name unique to me, meaning that it needs to be based off of a domain, though without at least one dot, I cannot properly show which domain that the <abbr title="The Onion Router">Tor</abbr> relay name references.
	However, if I base the relay name off of an onion address, the dots do not need to be so explicit to be understood.
	I could either name the relay after the sixteen-character <abbr title="Second Level Domain">SLD</abbr> of the onion address that it runs, or the <abbr title="Second Level Domain">SLD</abbr> with &quot;onion&quot; appended to it, no dot needed.
</p>
<p>
	I finished cleaning up the protocol-relative hyperlinks on this website when we got home, but I fear that there is still moch more cleaning to do here.
	I think that the next step is to find all of the links to my domain research pages and make sure that they still point to the correct pages.
	Twice, I moved pages in that directory, putting new pages at the <abbr title="Uniform Resource Identifier">URI</abbr>s in which the old pages had been moved from.
	As a result, some of the links to specific parts of the pages now link to the wrong pages.
	After that, I want to work on a better navigation system that will allow one to access the preceding and following weblog entry pages from any given weblog entry page.
	I have a lot to fix up here and not a lot of time left in which to fix it up.
</p>
<p>
	It sounds like we might be headed to the redwood forest in a couple days.
	I am not a fan of long vehicle trips, and sight seeing really is not my thing.
	Hopefully this will not be too bad though.
</p>
<p>
	My <a href="/a/canary.txt">canary</a> still sings the tune of freedom and transparency.
