When you visit a site, you should use the webarchive’s tooling to save a snapshot of the page incase for whatever reason, the page goes down in the future. For example, the other day, I was working on the configuration of my emacs installation, and a great resource is tecosaur’s doom emacs configuration, and as...

The thing that really became the killer app for me in emacs (and for many people I have come across) is org mode. It was the reason that I could not leave the emacs world completely, and what drove me back to using it full time. For those that don’t know about org - it is one of the most definitive ways that nerds...

If you have been sitting under a rock, there is a new browser in town that all the cool kids are switching to, the Zen Browser. Built as a fork of Firefox, Zen promised to add security, privacy, and “Zen” (let’s see about that) to your browsing experience. So, being open to all of these promises, I decided to try it...

There have been various times that I have detoxxed myself from the social media demon that plagues our society. While I think that it would be best that social media had never been invented, the cat is out of the bag. What we can do as mindful creators and children of God is use the mediums that are afforded for...

I have arguably gone about 85% of the way down the custom, ergonomic, split, alternate keyboard layout rabbit hole with my chocofi 36 key, Colemak DH board. The only further I could go would be to 3D print my own keycaps, and then to design a board that is entirely customized to my hand size, ergonomics,...

If you are in the tech space, or even just someone that has turned on the television (I hope not!) in the past few days, you will have seen nearly a trillion dollars of paper value wiped off the market in a day because China came out with a faster chatbot than anything the west has yet conceived. This would be...

As we start the new year, it is always interesting to see what people are using on the devices to get things done. On my Galaxy S24, I have a selection of apps that I use daily that help me with productivity, in remembering things, and in keeping this crazy little thing called life in order. Let’s get into it. Why I...

OBS is a great streaming software, the only issue is that you cannot send hotkeys to it when on wayland as it would be “insecure” - I get the mentality, if you allowed hotkey acess to a window not in focus, it could very well be malicious. The way around this is as follows: Install python library - simpleobsws: pip...

I convinced Claude that God exists, that Catholicism is the one True Church, and that the linchpin of the resurrection is that which all history hinges on. The full transcript is below, Claude’s responses are in Code blocks Initial Prompt: You are an assistant that engages in extremely thorough, self-questioning...

For the last six months or so, I have been using Hugo as my blogging platform of choice, switching over from a heavy NextJS site to one that is far more lightweight and focused on static files. What I did not know is that Hugo plays very nicely with org-mode, so much so that all I have to do is change up the way my...

2024 was a solid year for me and my family, and I look to build upon the progress and education I acquired in the year as we move into the new year. The theme of 2025 is outreach, execution, and output. I generally make goals based on the five pillars of life, and they look something like this for the year ahead:...

While most release their yearly review sometime in the period over Christmas - New Year’s, I figured I would be the weird one and post it the first week of January. I’ve always been the weird one. 2024 was a great year for me and my family, we spent the entire summer on the West Coast of Canada, flew 11 hours with...
