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...

12:18pm For those of you who have known me across more than a few years, this post might surprise you. I have reached the point that I don’t like Windows. It’s slowly getting to the point that a more accurate statement is that I don’t like Microsoft....

2:40am Right, then… the first piece of news is that I have extracted the text from the January 4th post from a database backup and restored it. I grabbed the screenshot of my Writing Log that was already in my Media library a few days ago when I put up the...

9:08pm In the comment thread of Saturday’s post (9 November 2024), Kevin asked a couple good questions that I feel require a more in-depth answer than a reply in the Comments thread. So, I decided to start today’s post by answering those questions. To save...

Okay. Even though I’m technically starting this at 3:48am on November 11th, I titled it 10 November 2024 because I haven’t gone to bed yet. However, I’m starting to feel the pull of sleep, so I’ll probably wander off in the direction of bed as...

11:46pm Given the time at which I’m typing this, the post’s date when I finally finish and publish will probably be 10 November, but I imagine that’s largely academic. Back in June, I attended my very first writing retreat. While there, I met someone...
