A not quite new start
Here we are once again
We are just sitting here, nearing the end of a long four day weekend.
I'm more or less alone in the home, the couple of kiddos that are here are hanging out upstairs; there are a couple of kiddos that are out, one is at a friends playing and the other is chilling downtown - eventually that one will bring the other back home.
What have I got going on? Not much. I've been attempting to do some work on this blog, living under a new domain name, which I picked up awhile ago in hopes to host some family-oriented stuff. Maybe email, maybe social stuff. I don't know. I'm slowly attempting to move away from all of the large big-tech stuff. Diversification and all that. I don't mind paying for services, I'd much rather use the product than be the product, you know?
A new site, you say?
Yeah, I'm thinking of changing up my workflow.
I like emacs and org mode, so I thought it might not be a bad thing to go all in a blog using those tools.
While it would be nice to go straight up pure emacs and org, I found org-static-blog
and I really like it, so I'm using it. Built up a small self-contained config/script file that can run from the command line to build the site, then rsync it up to the static server hosted overseas.
Five, ten years ago I never would have thought that I'd go the static route, but here we are. It's quick, easy, simple.
