Hey There!
It's 8:35 AM EST, ☁️ Overcast, 44°F, Humidity 86%, Wind 7 mph S
Yesterday was a most interesting day. I took care of a lot of computer issues. After my morning routine, had breakfast (breakfast burrito and a banana), and went to work finishing up yesterday's Round 1 purge. I decided in the end to put Mint Linux on the Acer Chromebook I found, and in the meantime I sorted out all the SD cards to ones that had data and ones that had bootable OS versions on them. I vacuumed up the bed I had thrown a lot of junk onto, and then went about re-packaging my tech pouch. I have a new backpack, a 10L Osprey Arcane I am trying out, and the tech pouch went in there. I emptied both sling bags, and will be trying the Osprey when next I go to Son2's studio (tomorrow). I had everything done by about 2:30 PM.
Lunch was a couple of leftover spare ribs and a smoothie. Then I got started researching a possible change of platform for my blog. I moved a few posts from my old site over to the new trial site I created, and I have to say they look pretty good over there. Much more simplicity, and much easier to post. I got a message from a colleague who is also thinking of using this platform, and he seems to like it as well. The initial research took me to dinner, which was a piece of salmon, some glazed carrots, and a salad. DW had also made some small hand sized apple pies (I had two) as well as a chocolate-peanut butter dessert of some kind. The latter was too dry for me.
Then I spent the entire evening with my LLM investigating transferring posts. This was an intense project, which I did not completely finish before going to bed. The LLM guided me through the process of both migrating old posts to my archive site as well as the new platform (which was much more involved and intricate), as well as checking for duplicates. The LLM created scripts in Python and we had to struggle to get through all the layers and errors to upload the posts and remove duplicates. The entire process is much too complex to detail here, but suffice to say that as I write this morning, the task appears to be done. I cleaned the kitchen up while some of the processes (which could take ~20 minutes) ran. I finally went to bed about 12:45 AM I believe.

That's all for now. 'Til We Meet Again!
