Mayor Adams just said in a speech Never Give Up Never Surrender….is he a GalaxyQuest fan?

Going to visit Savannah Georgia next month. Anyone have any suggestions for things to do/see?

Testing embedding links in a Bluesky post.

I have heavily invested in 3d printing this season. I feel the need to justify the cost by printing more things. Time to organize my drawers and cabinets. There seem to be a lot of choices in that area.

Checked into Midwood

Checked into Sleepy Hollow Hotel

Tried to put it in a 3d printed case I found online…needs a take two

This is my first attempt at soldering switches into a keyboard…in fact, haven’t tried to solder anything since college. I also didn’t like the open board, so tried to 3d print one…from a template…needs refining, but good enough for now.

Checked into Bistro Burger

Checked into Sullivan County Airport (KMSV)

Have to apologize to Nick Simson. He was having more issues than he should have with the webmentions plugin. Turns out that the Block Editor was hiding the option I kept expecting to be there. Will have to come up with a solution for that.

Does anyone do self-assessments of how they’d quarantine people they share a living space with if they got sick? Doing one of these for family members, sort of like a drill to see how easy it would be to isolate someone. So far, identified several action items.

Wrote a post on Gadget Wisdom(where I’ve been writing tech stuff) on the subject of keys on my keyboard I don’t really find much use for, and might want to repurpose. Curious what other people think of these keys.

Replied to Disabled PostKinds Plugin by Ton Zijlstra (zylstra.org)

I disabled the PostKinds WordPress plugin, created by David Shanske. I stopped using it 3 years ago for new postings but disabling it then would have broken many older postings.
What makes the plugin useful is that it allows you to turn postings into different, well, kinds of posts. Such as a reply,…

I wish you’d said something. I have considered writing a migration tool to render the properties and save them in content if someone wanted to disable it, but being as I wasn’t leaving, it wasn’t a priority for me, but would have given it a quick shot if someone needed it. I hate to think people feel locked in.

Beyond that, not supporting the block editor is a choice, I know. Have some long term compromise thoughts on that, but…nothing has moved much.
