update posts

I have brought back the display of existing comments on this blog. When I switched away from WordPress to my own blog solution, I didn't build any display of comments on posts since I haven't had comments enabled in years and wanted to make the switch quickly.

Storing quotes by others under my own license is probably fine, but I decided to mostly do summaries unless the exact quote seemed important. I did mostly do full quotes of my responses, since that's definitely my data. So I put their comments and my responses all in a single markdown file per post, in more of a prose format than normal comments are shown.

Windows (OS) doesn't seem to be tenable for my cellular data as home internet existence. At some point, Windows 10 seems to have removed any capability for the user to tell it when to do an update. Continue reading post "#1974"

Erm, looks like Windows downloaded something like 1.5GB of updates automatically when I used my tablet for the first time in a long time. Gonna make it really hard to stay within my 5GB cap Continue reading post "#1715"

Finally updated Macports on my system after updating my OS in December. Continue reading post "El Capitan Macports update"

A few weeks ago, I finally made the jump from Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) to 10.11 (El Capitan) on my primary computer. I had been using 10.11 at work for months, but not at home. I was probably one of the last holdouts on hardware that could be updated. Continue reading post "Mac Update: Snow Leopard to El Capitan"

I got an update link for my 10k Apart project on the 22cnd. I already had some updates committed, so I soon-after clicked the link. It wasn't until yesterday that the update finally applied. So it was quite a relief when it finally did. Continue reading post "10k Apart: Updated"
