First run of Fanta Manta firmware
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…

Kernel versions and breaking things
Today I went and updated my Chromebook’s kernel version to 6.7.10 because I wanted to see if anything would break. Pretty sure nothing did and I’m glad I was able to get it updated. I really don’t know why I want to look over and test different kernels but to be honest I think it’s…

QMK on Ubuntu
Today I managed to get my Chromebook setup to use QMK. This has been a great ordeal. Okay, not really but I did have to read a few things in order to actually get it all running. The good part is that it is running so I don’t have to do much now. Some people…

Working on the email thing
With making the switch over to Digital Ocean I took out my contact me page link. Why? Because I don’t want to use it to be honest. I haven’t really used it other than getting WordPress related updates from other teams. That was the email I used for many of those things. It was also…

The change in speed of the site
As I mentioned in my last post, I finally moved this site over to Digital Ocean hosting because Dreamhost was just getting too expensive for my liking. It was more than I would care to spend for a super simple blog site. I also don’t want to be spending any more than I probably should…
