"The bad people could save you, but they won't. The good people... they wanna save you, but they can't."

I've been loving macro photography since I picked up this lens, but I feel I may need to force myself to use another lens for a while, lest I forget how to shoot other things.

Interesting. Now, whenever I hear bugs buzzing against the window my first reaction is to reach for the camera. That's an interesting development!

I was honestly surprised to find out that the Instagram app has a "hide like and view counts" option. Just a shame that it's not a service wide thing so it also applied to the web interface. Though I guess a simple client side fix could solve that if I really want to.

I may need to grow another arm to do macro photography comfortable, but it's fun to see the result! Here's a hoverfly.

I normally don't understand most people, but some days make it abundantly clear that I am clueless when it comes to what makes people tick. This can be both a source of elation and disappointment.

@write_as Umm, tried to cancel my subscription and got a server error. Please help. :)

I wonder if I can figure out how to convert my Chromebook to a laptop running standalone linux, and if so, what distro would be best suited for it.

@aral Seems it failed at the "start new shell with elevated permissions" bit even though it did ask me if I wanted to allow it. By manually running windows terminal/powershell as admin and running the install command, the install works.

@aral Oh, actually... despite it giving me every indication that it installed properly I don't see it in my program files folder.

Hey @aral I'm following the instructions for the Site.js hello-world example on Windows and I'm getting an error when running the "site" command. I'm guessing this is a pathing issue? "site : The term 'site' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program."

After hearing a presentation by Scott Hanselman this morning I've decided that blogging as I code might not be a bad idea.

I've previously used @write_as as a platform and have been more than happy with it, but times are hard and even the $6 a month is starting to sting a bit financially.

Been wanting to give Site.js a try but everytime I look at the instructions for setting it up I feel instantly overwhelmed.

So what are some "easier" alternatives? GitHub Pages?

@aral Since you have your ear to the ground way more than me, do you know if there is a list of small tech tools available for people trying to transition to it? For example, I'm currently looking for a note taking solution and the thought of Evernote etc makes me cringe, but it's mostly the "big ones" that come up when I search.
