Did I find a legitimate bug or do I just not know what I’m doing? I’m going with column B.
I was doing something completely unrelated to what I’ve been doing all day (which is filling the site with stuff, see those menus…they actually have stuff) and noticed my backup script is throwing a few errors. But it’s fine.
My self-hosted image host is live! Or about as live as it will ever be. That’s because it’s literally something I built for just me! (I’m not selfish but build your own). I wrote part I last week, trashed part II in favor of using it a few days. Well…here we go.
I am building my own image host on pickmy.org, when I say image host; I mean something a bit more hacked together than just putting images in a directory and turning autoindex on. But something that’s a cross between imgur and a simple self-hosted image gallery. Here’s what I’ve been able to do, where I need to go from here, and why I’m doing it this way.
It’s been two weeks, I broke something on the server. Every damn time….
Among some of the non-technical garbage on my old blog was an occasional post about my travels. There weren’t many due the pandemic not long after I’d started being able to do such things. But I got to do something last year I’d wanted to do for 20 years. It was not such a great road-trip after all.
You heard it ladies and gentlemen….we now have a Twitter account. I made it as a response to a yet-unpublished post where I dive down a steep rabbit hole about who wrote the Amphibious theme. But it also apparently declared me an expert….with WordPress. Oh ye of too much faith.
Ya, BS. I keep changing stuff. I chalk it up to not knowing what I’m doing combined with 4 A.M. thoughts lying in bed. But one was so damn critical…I actually did it before getting caffeinated this morning. And I thought I didn’t know WTF I was doing…
