Hello! Thanks for visiting. Here, you’ll find all kinds of randomness from me, Rob Kerns, the human behind Author/Publisher Robert M. Kerns.
If you’re looking for my books, you should visit Knightsfall Press.
Beyond that, I’m going to go ahead and warn you up front. Anything you find on this site is the sole, 100%, personal opinion of me, the person. And I hope what you find here is of value or use to you.
You’re welcome to visit any time you like; after all, you never know what you might find. 😉

First Thoughts on Qubes
Holy shit... this is gonna require a mindset shift. I received the laptop I purchased for Qubes... a day early, I wanna say. That was rather nice. It's a Lenovo Thinkpad P50. I don't remember how much RAM it came with, but it had a 512GB NVMe M.2 SSD and Windows 10....
What Privacy Has Become
I came across something the other day (maybe other week, by now?) that has had me wrestling with my reaction to it ever since. To be quite honest, I'm not even sure how I came across it at this point. What I found was a couple articles by a computer & network...
2023 — The New Year
Hello, and welcome to 2023! Yes... I will freely admit that I'm a few days behind on that, but these things happen from time to time. They especially happen when you have the first week of a new year like mine, but that's a story I shall not revisit here. Suffice it...
29 November 2022 — Q4 Challenge: Day 45
Hello, and good evening. I hope the days have been treating you well. And yes... I am horribly behind on my updates again, but unlike every other batch of updates, I wanted to write today's post first. I have already created the others as drafts, and I'll circle back...
25 – 28 November 2022 — Q4 Challenge: Days 41 – 44
To make a long story short, I didn't write anything these four days. I spent Friday (the 25th) and Saturday (the 26th) getting ready for the drive to Ohio to attend my aunt's visitation and funeral. She was one of Dad's sisters and one of my favorite aunts. I have...
24 November 2022 — Q4 Challenge: Day 40
Novemebr 24th was Thanksgiving in the United States. We have a huge amount of traditions and "history" and truth that isn't always related to "history" (even by implication) surrounding that holiday. Those who know me personally will not be surprised at all when I say...
23 November 2022 — Q4 Challenge: Day 39
I have no idea how I spent most of the day before Thanksgiving. I do know I made a small grocery run, where I bought a pack of Brown 'n Serve rolls (see the post for Thanksgiving Day). But regardless of what I did... I didn't write a single word.
22 November 2022 — Q4 Challenge: Day 38
Last Tuesday (the 22nd), I visited my poet/professor friend to help him with some computer issues. It was a wonderful day, and I thoroughly enjoyed the chats during the work and while waiting on the technology to do what we told it to do. I was thoroughly wiped when I...
21 November 2022 — Q4 Challenge: Day 37
Monday the 21st was not nearly as good of a day of writing as Sunday the 20th, and at this point, I don't remember why. Yes, I know. I need to do a better job of keeping up-to-date on these posts. I've already decided that as soon as my Q4 Challenge is over, I'm going...
20 November 2022 — Q4 Challenge: Day 36
Well... Day 36 of my Q4 Challenge has officially come to a close. At least in terms of production. And I met my target. Exceeded it, in fact, but only by about sixty words or so. And the best part is that I'm okay with that. All of the thinking and evaluation and...
