6:47am This may be one of my less coherent posts. I’ve been awake since around noon yesterday (February 5th). The reason I am still awake is that we’ve had a lovely storm blow through. It started raining around 9pm-ish last night and rained fairly...

11:49pm Given the time, this will probably be another “11:59pm” post… given how much I have to discuss. So, the Linux Switch-over that I was so excited about was… largely pointless. I burned an entire week, and for all of that, the only thing I...

7:29pm This is the third post in a series chronicling my switch-over from my MacBook to an Ubuntu 24.10 install on my desktop (i.e. my former Windows gaming box). If you arrived here without reading the previous two posts in this series, you might wanna go back and...

9:27am Okay. So, this is the second post in the series about my feelings and response to Big Tech’s push to get more of who we are. I’m not going to re-hash everything I wrote yesterday. If you haven’t read yesterday’s post, you can find it...

6:09pm (Eastern) I was originally going to use this text to replace the content of the January 4th post (read on for an explanation), but about eight minutes in, I figured out how to recover the post content I lost. (More on that below) When I’m owning a dumbass...

11:41pm Since I’m starting this with just nineteen minutes before midnight, this will probably end up being posted at 11:59:59, which is code for “I’m a wordy little cuss and wrote way too long and had to edit the post date and time...

5:56pm Well, we’re two-thirds through the holiday season, and I hope it has treated you and yours well so far. By the by, I don’t count it by a strict number of days; I count it by milestones. We’re past Thanksgiving and Christmas with only New...

11:20pm Before I get into the update on Cole & Srexx, I wanted to make an announcement regarding Colfyr. A reader informed me of a rather nasty continuity error in the final chapter of the story, and I have uploaded the new, corrected version. It could take a few...
