Welcome Back

Thanks to my buddy Nels Lindahl for the tip on using The Wayback Machine, I have been able to resurrect most of this site's content. There are a few posts from late 2022 that I will never get back.

Last year this site suffered a data backup failure while performing an upgrade to the CMS used to manage the content. The backup corrupted, leading to no usable content after the platform upgrade was completed.

Thanks to my buddy Nels Lindahl for the tip on using The Wayback Machine, I have been able to resurrect most of this site's content. There are a few posts from late 2022 that I will never get back. This includes my annual reading list, though I will make a post soon to show what little I've read this year.

As sad as that is, I'm no longer self-hosting my CMS and all future upgrades will be as a managed service. This takes that backup process away from me and puts it into an automated effort I can hold a vendor responsible for.

Look for lots of posts soon on various topics from generative AI to video games. From politics to television, and food.

Here's to another new era.

All's quiet ...

This week, there is not much to add regarding personal explorations, book reviews, or entertainment. I've been a little quiet while adjusting to a new job, and the previous three months were an empty void of unemployment.

A Look Back at Event Horizon

I had no idea at the time that I would spend the next twenty-five years actively avoiding the film, which became one of my darkest fear triggers. The film feels more creepy than scary to me now.
