DONE PUBLISHED CSS Updates
About some CSS Updates… and why I haven’t posted in the last two weeks or so. (Changes are now complete!)
My Org Capture Templates - Part 2 emacs:
I was happy this capture template series generated interest on Reddit. One of the things I love about org-mode (and Emacs) is the passion among its users and the ability to learn more from each other. One of the major reasons for this is org-mode’s complexity: with so many options, it has to be personalized to its users' needs. org-mode is the most intimate tool I’ve used in a while. Every time I read something about someone’s org-mode system, it feels like I’m invited for a discussion over a cup of coffee.
My Org Capture Templates - Part 1 emacs:
emsenn asked Org-mode users for their day-to-day capture templates in the technology Mastodon (which you should join and follow if you haven’t yet). I was happy to reply and figured it would be interesting to dig into my capture templates. I started writing this post explaining all of my templates, but then realized I’m starting to edit out details because the post is getting too long. So instead, I’m going to explain each template at a time. Hopefully you find this interesting!

Apple is a Hardware Second Company
You don’t need to look hard to find the holes in this Emperor’s clothes. Apple has been heading downhill for a couple of years, but it’s only recently that the public at large started to take notice.
How I Write Posts for my Blog
Even though it doesn’t show on this blog (yet), I’ve been blogging since I got into college, more than a decade ago. Blogging is an activity that combines a couple of passions for me: writing, technology. and visual creativity. My process hasn’t changed much over the years, and the tools I taught myself to use help me maintaining my routine. This is a quick explanation of its main components.
About Removing Company Software
When someone asks what we install on their personal devices (BYOD laptops), I usually give them the abridged version. People rarely care about details. Every now and then though, someone is a bit concerned and asks for more information. Stuff like why do we need software that tells us details about their hardware, how do we use it, and of course, if we can view their personal data. My answer to that last question is “we can if we want to.” It bothers me this question comes only from so few individuals.
Switching to Hugo - Full Time
PayPal informed me that the host of my WordPress blog is charging me for another $80 or so for the next year. The very next day, tumblr decided to shoot itself in the head (rather than the leg, if you ask me). It was good to be reminded to not trust cloud services for creative content - like my blog.
AFPS Secure Token Active Directory Problems
Most chances are, you won’t even hear about Secure Token unless you happen to manage Macs for your company. Secure Token seems to be only an issue with Active Directory.
The Hub
Having a consisted, stable server for my org files has been on my mind for a while. I bought a Raspberry PI (RP) to serve as a file server to be used as a “hub” that will always be on and host these files. This is a description of the setup of what I’ve done to make this work. I hope you’d find this useful! Feel free to contact me with any questions.
