Until recently I had been using a 10+ year old Dell laptop as a “server” running Ubuntu with several Docker containers for various apps. I woke up one morning to a powered off laptop. Nothing I did would revive my “server”. So to get back up and running, I removed the internal SSD from said dead laptop and copied the needed files over to another laptop that already had Ubuntu loaded on it in a dual boot setup with Windows. A bit of cp here and there and my “server” was back up and running without too much fuss.

It is not uncommon for me to read the same books multiple times and this year was no different. In truth I failed to finish reading a few book series that I meant to read this year (the honorable mentions). Either way, I still did plenty of reading this year with mostly re-reads, but I did get a couple of new books in. So here we go, the list as I remember it.

A new website must mean a new era. Setting up my Hugo based static website. Need some basic content to get started, so here is my first post.
