I subscribe to a number of technical substacks. I got a marketing email from Substack trying to get me to read some others that were straight up porn. I tried to update my email preferences and could not understand any of the marketing words on the different email preferences. Have now just said "fuck it" to the entire product.

Had a power outage for a while. Checked all the radio devices around the house and forgot about the KiwiSDR in the garage where it’s -1ºF. It’s not working so well in that cold, so it’s probably going to be useless for a hot minute.

I got bored and spent a few hours making a D&D campaign with ChatGPT. I pitted two dark ages towns against each other for rightousness of apples or pears and got this: "TOGETHER, YOU MUST SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE, BLEND YOUR FRUITS, AND TASTE YOUR CREATIONS UNTIL THE BALANCE IS DIVINE. ONLY THEN WILL YOU ACHIEVE THE SMOOTHIE OF THE GODS!"

I’m out and about this morning and someone in front of me grabbing a coffee has been talking about how raw milk is a government lie and is good for you. This person is in their 30’s. I never thought I’d hear this in person, but in case you didn’t know, it can kill you and is the main reason we have food safety agencies today.

I can’t believe how bad Apple Intelligence is and how much worse it makes Siri. It barely works at all, gives me a list of web pages for every question I ask it, and I spent a solid 3 minutes trying to get it to turn on/off dark mode on my laptop.

I wanted to blog, I've been trying it for years (like 15). I wanted to have interesting projects and I've had a few. I've yet to find a platform that isn't too complicated. Jekyll, Nanoc, Bridgetown, Gastby, all of them, pretty awful for me trying to find a way to say something. Obsidian publish has been ok, but isn't quite that.

Maybe I'm just a person who doesn't do this sort of thing is my fate. Maybe I'm just boring. Perhaps.

I tried to go back to Jekyll for running my personal website but found it a total pain in the ass to do things like customize CSS or customize it in any meaningful way without overriding stuff in gems. I’d like a ruby static site generator, is nanoc a better option? Kind of tired of using obsidian publish due to lack of customization but I don’t want something completely difficult to use to just write some things down.

I switched my desktop from Windows to Fedora a couple days ago to get some work done on a machine that didn't suck. I haven't used KDE seriously since KDE3 when it did super cool things like be able to handle URL's in Konqueror.

That said, I can't believe Gnome is the default experience. It was buggy as hell and ugly. I am not a fan of the whole start bar UX, but this is so much more polished than I imagined and I'm switching.

Nine days post apendectomy and while I don’t have any pain, I am absolutely wiped mentally all the time. Trying little mile walks here and there, but don’t feel like reading, writing, doing anything radio related, or software project related. Hoping this passes soon and I’m back to normal.
