New Windows 10 laptop on order. Linux laptop still in hospital. Ongoing problem with Macbook being finicky about charging is a pain. It didn’t charge last night. Probably a $100 charger unit. I need one dependable machine.

I’m waiting for the Gutenberg editor to come out on Wordpress. I’ll try it when it does, but I have the Classic Editor plugin installed just in case. I guess it’s supposed to make posts look more Squarespace like. Pffft.

Also on Mastodon.social I like that bots are identified as such. I had a polite bot stop by and let me know it was following me and how to block it if I wanted. That bot was from a new Mastodon instance that needed some filler posts for it’s local timeline. Kinda nice.
