Stuff Review #1: EKA Swede 38

And finally, the first review of something, only some 6 years late.
Not really a review, more of a rant in my usual noncommittal, meandering style.

First victim: EKA Swede 38.
I believe they are no longer produced.

I’ll start with a knife review because I felt like it. Next time I’ll probably review a pen or something.

So, I’ve been using the new editor in WordPress

Since the last host change, I decided to give WordPress’ Gutenberg (a.k.a. the block editor) a try.

So I wrote the last two or three posts on it.

It’s atrociously bad.

“What now?” tuzki_wait

Happy new year!

Yeah, I said I probably wouldn’t post a separate happy new year post, but I did dun it.

This way I can say I made 8 posts in the last month.
Possibly a new record.

So, happy new year. Wish you happiness and all that stuff.
May the new decade bring the zombie apocalypse.

This happened some months ago, but since I was in a writing hiatus in the last half of 2019 due to eye surgery I’m only writing/posting it now.

My precious…
My faithful…
And stupidly old…
Monitor.

I’m gonna do it!

I’ve promised a few times along the years that I would start posting reviews of random junk.

I will and I have proof.

A couple of days ago I opened Inkscape and did something I hadn’t done in years: a bit of vectorial work.

And with a new host comes…

…a new shitty theme.

So, about 5 years after introducing my theme made with a WP theme generator, I introduce to you my new theme made with a WP theme generator (the same exact one I used last time in fact).

Boy, do I love changing webhost!

So, I changed webhost again.
I either don’t change anything for years or I’m constantly jumping around webhosts.

This time was because the webhost I was using was supercheap, well the package that I was using was supercheap.
But it only had 1GB of space which considering my other stuff on the host, the backups and all that 1GB was too little.
