The other day I began a course on Cloud networking that is offered from Juniper Networks. This is one thing I still never did finish the last time I tried to take the course. This time around I am a bit more determined to finish the course. I haven’t really been too motivated to complete…

The other day I was looking over the WordPress Slack channels and one thing I noted was the use of blocks. Yeah. Those again. They can be nice to use when you have a lot of things to write about and want to express it in different ways. Blocks are neat. I’ve been using Gutenberg…

Clearly it’s been way too long since I posted anything on this site. To be honest I haven’t really been looking at posting here. I haven’t had much to do with code and every time I do even open the admin a lot of the time it is to update a plugin or two. I…

Today for some weird reason I wanted to look over some more code because it has been a long time since I’ve touched any. The most recent thing I really did was touch up a few files on my GitHub repo for work so that I could test a few things in order to try…

A few years back I bought a computer for my kiddo. This was at a time when schools went to remote status. That was a bit of a rough time for quite a few and it took a lot to get used to as well. The hardest part was building out that routine and just…

For some time I have been saying I wanted to build out an arcade machine. A few years back we used my kiddo’s old computer and installed Ubuntu with RetroPie so we could emulate some old school games that I grew up with. He loved it and I got a kick out of playing some…

The other day I wanted to play a game. To be honest I didn’t really know what game I wanted to play so I walked around the apartment for a bit. The reason it took me so long in deciding was that I didn’t know what I wanted to play. Did I want to shoot…

Okay, this is a funny thought I had the other day. I say that because quite some time back I wanted to learn how GitHub Actions worked so I started diving into the documentation. I began reading and trying a few things here and there. After some time it did finally click. For some time…

I don’t know why I didn’t post this one the other day but I guess better late than never, right? After making sure everything was up to date on the Chromebook I went and tried to get a test build for the keyboard. I had a few moments where it failed and that was because…
