Notes

Looking at the notes I imported the other day, in my mind, it seems as if most of them were published just a few months ago versus a few years ago. I also had a Twitter existential crisis starting in November 2022 that lasted through April 2023. Should I stay? Should I go? Back and forth for months…

I migrated all of my Micro.blog content to my site yesterday, along with images. Apart from intentionally not preserving URL slugs, the import came out clean and I’m pleased with the results.

Taking a look at the Obsidian community plugin review queue of open pull requests, it looks like the team has a backlog of about seven months. No doubt thanks to an influx of AI generated work. It’ll probably be a while before my plugin makes it in.

As if five TVs inside the house were not enough, I built a box and mounted an outdoor TV on the back patio yesterday. Once done, we enjoyed dinner on the patio table while watching local news. My back is feeling it a little today though…

I added a notes feature to the site today to capture those fleeting thoughts that come to mind.

My poor kid… He got a new iPhone 17 last weekend and the darned thing went into recovery mode this morning. I’m at work and can’t help him. I’ve only seen him this upset a time or two. His entire social life is on his phone. Hopefully the Genius Bar visit my wife booked can resolve it.

Maybe I’m too much of a skeptic now, but when your half-sibling who you haven’t spoken to in 10+ years suddenly makes an effort to track you down on the internet and send a contact form message to “talk to you” about something they’d “like to do,” it can only mean one thing… They want money. 🤣

I went for my lunchtime two-mile walk today without listening to music, audiobook or podcast, opting instead for the natural sound of everything going on around me. Oddly enough, I found it to be far more invigorating than doing otherwise, even with all the car traffic.

I took a little time this morning to finish up removing old posts from Micro.blog that moved to the new server and then added redirects as necessary. I’ll continue to use MB for the quick ephemeral thoughts and occasional photo post going forward.

It seems the mnml Archive by Years plugin needed a little love too. That’s been handled as well.
