Review of Note-Taking Apps 2023 September
Friday, September 29th, 2023Summary I’m switching from storing notes in three different apps. For me, personally, Evernote has been my go-to for nearly a decade.

Thursday, June 22nd, 2023Recently, I purchased a SteamDeck. I’d wanted to buy one, but I wanted it to be able to hold a good amount of games. As of this posting, the SteamDeck comes in three different capacities. With the sizes of games these days, at least for modern AAA games, all but the largest capacity one won’t […]
Auto mount NAS or server share to a Raspberry Pi

Thursday, May 7th, 2020A good Thursday. (7th) Regular work day. Finished Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger, season 1. Our younger son did his martial arts via Zoom again, today.
