Hi! Sorry about the delay. Yep, looks like it was. We had some bad storms roll in and lost power, looks like it failed to restart on its own.

I see an artistic video with a Kacey Musgraves song on it, I immediately like. Great work! ❤️

You don’t like danger noodles? 🥺

Personal Data Server. Basically you put your data on your own server. You can find it on Bluesky’s GitHub.

PDS login finally works for me!

Heyo 😁

I propose splitting the state and incorporating the “blue” area with Delaware. Delaware could use some more space anyways lol

The states from Virginia all the way up to Maine on the east coast would also like to participate 🥰 (except maybe Pennsylvania, they can't seem to make up their minds about who's side they're on).

Have fun! I just completed a network upgrade today. Something about tinkering with my home lab setup and adding shiny new gadgets gets me excited lol

Well, it went a bit longer than anticipated (I managed to forget to update my Proxmox node's static IP), but the maintenance is completed. Apologies to anyone using my services.

I will be doing some network maintenance today, so expect some of my services (including Bluesky feeds) to be unavailable for approximately an hour.

Thanks @moralcode.bsky.social for alerting me about my feeds not updating! If you were using my feeds and you noticed this too, it should now be resolved. I had to update the codebase.

Last year I dropped the ball and stopped posting after April, but I'm not going to let this happen again this year. I'll be posting tutorials, reviews, and my random thoughts. Looking forward to achieving this new goal I've set for myself.

New Year, New Site Explore my transition to Ghost, the launch of my monthly newsletter, and the introduction of a paid membership tier with exclusive perks like a private Discord server and YouTube shoutouts.

I've moved my site over to Ghost (self-hosted, of course) and am introducing a new monthly newsletter for all my shenanigans. If you find my content useful, I've also created an option to support me using a paid membership tier.

Been using Kagi for nearly 2 years after a recommendation from @tiuxo.com. Haven’t looked back! The ability to derank certain sites alone is amazing.

Great breakdown, and I agree with your analyses 👍

She also started asking follow-up questions about things like the slippers, and who Elphie's dad is. Don't worry, I didn't spoil anything for her!

Mind you my mother doesn't have a great attention span for movies. She'll walk away to do something in the middle of movies a lot. But she didn't get up one time while Wicked was on. That says a lot, in my opinion. 😂

If there's a testament to how great of an adaptation Wicked was to film, let it be my mother's reaction. She hates musicals, but is absolutely invested in Wicked after I forced her to watch it. She was bummed when I told her Part 2 doesn't come out until later this year.

I got one a few weeks ago, and I agree completely. I got it because of the size. If it had the pro features though, it’d make me even happier. I hate that Apple feels it needs to compromise every little feature on these devices just because they’re smaller.

Sincerest apologies for those using my feeds. My power was out for quite a while today and that meant my feeds went down.

This is your reminder to make sure you maintain backups! Remember, it's best practice to follow the 3-2-1 rule: 3 copies of data, backed up on 2 different storage types, with 1 copy offsite.

Here's the tools I prefer on each OS:
macOS - Time Machine
Windows - Veeam Agent
Linux - Pika Backup
