Hi! It’s been awhile. It’s me, Andrew. I used to blog here fairly often. Been away for a little bit. Completely by accident but trying to get back on the blog track. So I figured I’d log what was keeping me away for a little bit. The WordPress drama.This is the item that feels like … Continue reading “Catching Up”
Text Spam this Election Cycle is Ridiculous
Has anyone else been getting a ridiculous number of spam texts this election cycle? I didn’t get this many in 2020. I don’t recall getting any in the midterms. I’m getting at least one daily now. Even reporting it as junk in iMessage. The funny part is I’d say 75% of them are Ohio related. … Continue reading “Text Spam this Election Cycle is Ridiculous”
Productivity Systems
Following up on The Verge’s miniseries on productivity and how people work…well the latest episode is about and productivity systems. As usual, definitely worth checking out! However for this week, and this follow-up I thought I’d write about my personal productivity system. Is it perfect? No. Is it ever evolving? Absolutely. In fact, in the … Continue reading “Productivity Systems”
Safari and View Transitions
I think View Transitions are really neat technology. When used properly, they give a site some polish that I think users appreciate (even if they don’t notice) and of course, it provides the native app feel that users are used to. View Transitions are enabled in Safari Technology Preview v. 192. However there are two … Continue reading “Safari and View Transitions”

I’ve done a couple of updates but there was some stuff hanging around … Continue reading “A Little Site Update”
Quick thought on the debate

What are we playing this weekend? (6/22/2024)
Welcome back gang. What are we playing this weekend? Last night I bounced around between Destiny 2, Call of Duty, Halo, and even got a game of Rocket League in. I find that I try to pick up other games for a bit, just because I work on Destiny 2 so it’s good to have … Continue reading “What are we playing this weekend? (6/22/2024)”
What are we playing this weekend?
So what are we playing this weekend? I’ll be playing Destiny 2, and probably MLB The Show. I’m very much looking forward to College Football 25 coming out in July. The Show scratches the sports game itch for now. In Destiny 2, I’m still too under leveled to be useful in Trials, so I’ll probably … Continue reading “What are we playing this weekend?”
Change Images to Black and White with CSS
If you’ve ever needed to handle changing some colors on an object on a web page, I think the default position would be to edit the item in Photoshop and then add it in via an Image tag. For images, that still might be the right move but here is a way to change items … Continue reading “Change Images to Black and White with CSS”
