**What do you need?**
* A Handshake top-level domain
* Bob wallet (with at least 10 HNS)
* Varo account
* GitHub account
**1. Own a Handshake domain**
First, you need to have a domain stored in your personal wallet (Bob Wallet).
We don’t cover how to obtain a domain name, but it’s not difficult. You can bid for domains using Bob Wallet, which is a self-custodial method that allows you to interact directly with the blockchain. Alternatively, you can use a custodial service like Namebase.io or ShakeStation.io. If you opt for a custodial service, both platforms work well and significantly simplify the process. However, keep in mind that you will need to transfer your domain to your Bob Wallet. This transfer typically takes about a day, so be patient.
**2. Create A Varo Account**
Varo is a service that allows you to connect your self-custodied domain to a DNS nameserver, enabling you to manage your domain records without losing custody of your name. At any time, you can use your Bob Wallet to delete all records associating your domain with Varo, effectively breaking the connection. Varo is developed by [eskimo.software](https://eskimo.software). You can access Varo in both the ICANN and HNS root zones:
* [https://varo.domains](https://varo.domains)
* [https://varo](https://varo)
**3. Connect your domain with Varo**
Once your domain is in your Bob wallet, you need to connect it to Varo. Go to your Varo account > Add site *>* type the domain you own, and press the "+" button.
Your domain should appear under "External Domains". Next, go to "Manage", where you’ll find two subsections named "Nameservers" and "DNSSEC". These are the records you need to add to your domain in Bob Wallet to connect it with Varo.
In Bob Wallet go to "Domain Manager", press on your domain, a new screen will open. In the "Records" section, add the records provided by Varo:
* Add 2 NS records, with the value of ns1.varo. and ns2.varo.
* Add 1 DS record, with whatever string of value you have in your Varo account
Once done you need to "Submit" the changes. It will take approximately 10 minutes to update (the time it takes for each block to be created on the Handshake network). After 10–20 minutes, you should be able to see the new records on any HNS explorer, such as Niami.io.
To test if the connection is proper, you can add a "redirect" record on Varo. A redirect record is a type of DNS record used to redirect a domain or subdomain to another URL. In this example, I will redirect the domain "nostr.belikebill", to my Primal nostr address "https://primal.net/galetaire".
* Type: REDIRECT
* Name: nostr.yourdomain
* Content: the URL of destination
Once completed, it will take about 6 hours for the changes to go live. Yes, it might seem like a long time, but domains are not like money—you’re not meant to move them around constantly. If your new address, "nostr.yourdomain" or "http://nostr.yourdomain.hns.to", redirects to your desired URL, your domain and Varo are successfully connected.
**4. Create a GitHub account**
Create or go to your GitHub account, create a "New repository", put the name of your choice, and "create".
**4.1 Create an index file**
At your new repository, click on the "Add file" > "Create new file" button.
Name the file "index.html" and type some HTML content into the editor. Like:
`<h1>Hi, It's me!</h1>`
Commit changes.
**4.2 Repository Settings**
Click on the "Settings" tab and scroll down to the GitHub "Pages" section. Select the main branch source "/root" and click on the "Save" button.
After 5 minutes, you can refresh the Pages section, and at the top, you will see an information message indicating that your site is live at a URL similar to this: [https://youraccount.github.io/yourrepository](https://youraccount.github.io/yourrepository), visit the site. At this point, your website is online.
In the "Pages" section, go to "Custom Domain" and add your desired domain. Note that it must be a second-level domain (e.g., `something.yourdomain`). GitHub will not recognize a pure top-level domain:
* hi.yourdomain, for example.
Because it’s not an ICANN domain, GitHub will tell you it doesn’t work, but it actually does. Even though it will always show as "DNS Check in Progress," your site will be online. It will take around 30 minutes for the site to go live.
**5. Set up your domain as the address for your site**
Finally, you need to connect Varo with GitHub. Go to you Varo account > "Manage" for your domain, and add an "A" record:
* Type: A
* Name: hi.yourdomain
* Content: [185.199.111.153](http://185.199.111.153) (this is the IP address of [GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/pages/configuring-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site/managing-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site))
As for the "Redirect" record, the update will take 6 hours to go live. But after that time, your site will be online at your domain address:
* [http://hi.yourdomain/](http://hi.yourdomain/)
* [http://hi.yourdomain.hns.to](http://hi.yourdomain.hns.to) (hns.to is a bridge to see HNS addresses trough ICANN addresses).
Congrats! The next step is to personalize your website (at this point only the "index.html"), you can ask some AI to create you one, copy paste, and done!
You can see mine at [http://hi.galetaire](http://hi.galetaire), any doubt hit the comment section :D.

At this point, we should be arresting, not firing, any FBI employee who delays, destroys, or withholds information on the Epstein case. There is ZERO explanation I will accept for redacting anything for “national security” reasons. A lot of Trump supporters are losing patience with Pam Bondi. I will give her the benefit of the doubt for now since the corruption within the whole security/intelligence apparatus of our country runs deep. However, let’s not forget that probably Trump’s biggest mistakes in his first term involved picking weak and easily corruptible (or blackmailable) officials. It seemed every month a formerly-loyal person did a complete 180 degree turn and did everything they could to screw him over, regardless of the betrayal’s effect on the country or whatever principles that person claimed to have. I think he’s fixed his screening process, but since we’re talking about the FBI, we know they have the power to dig up any dirt or blackmail material available, or just make it up. In the Epstein case, it’s probably better to go after Bondi than give up a treasure trove of blackmail material against the long list of members on his client list.

Here I am posting a document that presents the Business Model Canvas (BMC) created for “Nasi Goreng Semrawut”, a Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME) in Kendal, Central Java, Indonesia. BMC is a strategic management and entrepreneurship tool. It allows us to visualize, assess, and modify business models. It is crucial to understand the core components of a business and how they interact. As a UX researcher, analyzing and understanding the business model is critical to aligning user needs with business goals. This BMC provides the basis for identifying opportunities to improve user experience and drive business growth.
I have broken it down into sections and grouped them carefully and I have clear reasons from a UX perspective why the groupings I have chosen are these points. I explain the UX side more fully on my portfolio website.
For my reflections on this project analyzing the Business Model Canvas of "Nasi Goreng Semrawut" through a UX lens reveals several opportunities for improvement. By focusing on user needs and behaviors, I can enhance the customer experience, streamline operations, and drive business growth. This analysis highlights the importance of integrating UX research into the strategic planning process. By understanding the business model, I can ensure that our UX efforts are aligned with business goals and deliver tangible results.
