Pixel 7 Pro Review

I have been on a bit of an adventure when it comes to my mobile phone. For the last year, I've been on the Galaxy S22+, which I purchased used off of Amazon (or refurbished). It served me well, but as the year went on, the battery life got progressively worse. So bad, in fact, that it would only ...

I hope everyone had a great holiday season. Mine was...

Thoughts On NaNoWriMo

So, I'm going to talk about writing today. I know it's not something that everyone is interested in, so I'll just keep my thoughts constrained to a blog post instead of making a video about it.

I've been participating in NaNoWriMo since 2012. It is hard to believe that it has been 10 years,...

I Tried Dvorak for A Week(ish)

If you managed to catch this last week's pod, you know that Tyler was challenged to use Dvorak for two weeks. As the friend I am, I decided that I would take up that challenge alongside him. The one thing Tyler has at least discovered about this is that I'm a crappy cheerleader. Also, not much of...

Early Access

Hey folks,

Just stopping in for a word about early access. If you've supported me for awhile, you know that I'm horrible at releasing videos early. I go in spurts where I'm really good at it and then I go for a long while where I don't do it.

But it's something I want to get back into...

Waiting For Everything To Go Wrong

Four months with Fedora. I think part of my reason for writing this post and making as many videos about Fedora as I have in the last four months is that part of me wants to prove the nay-sayers wrong. See, I'm still here. I didn't distro hop.

But, that's only a small part. The rest of it i...

Over the last week or so, I've been working on improving my setup. I've already written about the new Microphone and the new audio interface (both of which I'm enjoying), but I've not talked about a couple of other changes that I've decided to make.
