This website uses ASP classic to serve its contents. I wrote the CMS system for it in the late 1990s, and it hasn’t caused me too much trouble. I can easily add new pages to it without stopping a program, having a build environment handy, or compiling anything. I can change the logic of a page by simply saving a text file.

A day before April 1 2021 I received a McDonald's mailer advertising their new Crispy Chicken Sandwich along with a coupon redeemable for said sandwich only valid on April 1.

Is the New McDonald's Crispy Chicken Sandwich an April Fools day joke?

While Joe Biden was not my first choice as Democratic nominee for the 2020 presidential race, I will happily welcome him in place of the corruption-abetting, conspiracy-theorizing, reality-denying, pussy-grabbing, hate-spewing, "white power!" tweeting, falsehood factory that currently resides in the Oval Office. For the record, my first choice for the nomination would have been either Bernie Sanders or our next Vice President.
Christopher Barnatt, the man behind the Youtube channel Explaining Computers, has switched to using Linux as his full time operating system. This comes after Microsoft has removed Windows 7 support and Windows 10 was packed with privacy invading programs.
Today in my county there was a hearing open to the public about rules for mask requirements. After listening to the public comments for a while I had to just turn off the live stream. Everyone speaking against wearing masks was either being too dishonest or stupid to the point of being painful to watch.
