@kev well seems someone else has already wrote above it nicer than I probably could 😛https://bilalkaun.com/2020/10/23/no-cost-ssl-in-easywp-with-lets-encrypt/

@kev 100% agreed. Every 90 days running through that is not a good money/time ratio

@jason123santa @kev Just the ease of use really. Having a whole build system seemed overkill for my personal blog. The flexibility of logging into any machine and being able to write is nice.

Still consistently impressed with Stadia. Using garbage “farm” internet stills allows for smooth gaming. Only current negative is a lack of a huge game library. #stadia #gaming

@joeligj12 I get 25 on a good day. You can always just play Destiny 2 for free to see how it is for you (might ask you to sign up etc - but you can cancel instantly to avoid being charged)People tend to think it costs money to play (monthly subscription) but that isn’t true (Google does a terrible job marketing it)

@kev This was a wonderful read and I actually do agree (mostly) with all your counter-points. I tend to get a little carried away with extreme views on simplicity lol(also thank you for the compliments - but you give yourself barely any credit. Your blog is one of my select favourite site designs that I frequent FYI)

After spending a lot of time thinking through this "thought experiment" and reading the response post from @kev - it got me thinking more about the default browser styles..."Modern Improvements for Default Browser Styles"https://uglyduck.ca/default-html-style-updates/

@kev To be fair that concept of a post was already in the works 😉 As for resizing windows - yeah that's yet another extreme view on my part (I'm the opposite where I have my browser sized to barely half my monitor)

@kev Yeah same, already been playing around with it. Not sure if it's all in my head, but it does seem better? 😅

In the slow process of switching my main repo and static hosting over to sourcehut. I’ve always loved the concept behind it - about time I support more FOSS initiatives

@kev haven’t looked into it. I’d assume it would be fine since it’s essentially Git?

@hs0ucy Yes I was planning to do that. Need to create a new account here but then I’ll be able to just forward this existing one. Hopefully goes smoothly lol
