I had some adventures getting .NET 10 installed and working on Linux Mint and thought I'd share the solution that worked for me.

I don't hang the outdoor lights out every year, but every time I do, it seems like I need to purchase new lights. It's incredibly frustrating. And yes, I know this is kind of a first-world problem, but it's making me so mad.

Several years ago, my site included a photography page where I shared some of the photos I took along my travels. During one of my various redesigns when my site was running Next.js, I was running into build issues with it. I made the decision to split the page out but never actually did. I think that's going to change.

November was a busy month. Thanksgiving, a long weekend in New York City, and a nagging cough were the highlights.

A little over a week ago there was a little bit of a buzz going around about how Americans are holding onto their devices longer and claiming that this is damaging to the economy.

I recently added a concerts page to my site. I've been keeping track of the number of times I've seen bands and decided it might be a neat thing to visualize as a page on my site. The list of concerts isn't complete, nor is the list of bands I've seen, but I can't remember everything.

Something that makes me chuckle but also makes me sad is dogs and AirTags.

Look, fancy features are nice and all, but you know what I really want? I want the appliances and other gear I buy and own to be as dumb as a back of bricks.

I finally was able to enjoy a vacation this month, a much needed vacation. Other than that, it was a mostly quiet month.

Lately I've been considering more about how I interact with technology. The one thing that I've been bouncing back and forth with most is an app like Obsidian for notes and pen and paper.

Hope everyone has a happy and spooky Halloween!
