Ultra-soft potato burger buns
The softest burger buns I've made at home, thanks to mashed potato worked right into the dough. I made them by hand, but they still came out perfect :)BurgerPotato Buns

Saison des foins
En Bretagne la saison des foins c'est typiquement entre mi-avril / mi-mai pour les couverts végétaux qui sont ensuite retournés pour y faire du maïs, ou jusqu'à juin pour les prairies plus permanentes. Plus tard et l'herbe est de moins bonne qualité, et ça stresse la prairie avec les chaleurs de l'été. Si l'agriculteur de...Random

Pinball Expo 2024
Just got home from Expo. What a blast! Spent a lot of time in the tournament room volunteering and playing poorly. Super cool stuff this year for the 40th year of expo. As always, the homebrew pins are a delight. The standing hugging pin had some crazy shots. 1930s flipperless pins were also a huge highlight, complete with era-appropriate tunes and outfits. Rob Berk also brought out all five of the Hankin pins which were very cool. Bummer that there were so few produced. Glad to complete my tour of all the Star Wars pins as well.PinballPinball Expo
Résumé
I’m a computer person. I write code and do stuff on the internet. I like building software and community through code and sysadmin tools. My current day job involves writing C# for desktop applications.

WordPress IndieWeb setup with a block theme
I’ve been tinkering around with IndieWeb integration on this site and wanted to document some notes getting all this running with a block theme. Theme I’m running a mildly customized version of Pulitzer. I’ve used the Create Block Theme plugin to export my changes and have published it as a standalone child theme here. Changes are mainly typography and header/footer changes. I’ve raised the font sizes across the board and switched to using system fonts to avoid shipping font files. Modern Font Stacks is lovely and I found this tiny plugin to pull all the families in to the font […]IndieWebSelf-hosting
Block themes are cool, actually
WordPress block themes have grown on me. Spent a couple hours this weekend sprucing up tcpinball.org. Found this lovely block theme and it all came together quite nicely. Had a strange bug where the Navigation block stopped working on certain pages. Didn’t find the actual cause but it fixed itself when I disabled the Gutenberg plugin.Self-hostingWordPress
DNSSEC wasn’t worth it
[… we] estimate that DNSSEC validation is performed around 1% of the time, given the DNS query profile of today’s data I run my own authoritative nameservers and have had a slight nagging feeling that I should’ve enabled DNSSEC years ago. It’s been on my perpetual to-do list but I’ve never gotten around to it. I’ve definitely caused some outages trying to get DNSSEC to work. Came across this article and it confirms that my procrastination was pretty OK in this specific case.DNSInternet
Internet Archeology
Stumbled upon a silly blog I made for one of the German classes I took in undergrad. The account it was under used my long-dead @nmu.edu email so I ended up having to contact support to get back into it. Also found the final project page. I imported the posts and pages to this site just for archival sake without any of the bother ads on wp.com. At least I got my main username back from this discovery! The imported posts are here if you’re so inclined.InternetWordPress

I use the Wayback Machine quite a bit. Here's what WordPress.com looked like way back when we first started working on it. The Wayback Machine is part of the Internet Archive which I got to visit today. They have archived 27 years of web history (along with books, movies, games, and more) and provide free...
