If you allowed Hyper-V to automatically create your Ubuntu machine you likely will run into disk space issues when you start to use the VM. This blog post will walk you through the steps of expanding the disk to address your disk space issues.

Instructions for how to upgrade Ruby on Ubuntu 22.04 Using rbenv to allow for having multiple versions of Ruby installed.

For many years I used this site as an outlet. I blogged about everything. What movies I saw, what races I went to, what events I did, what my political thoughts might have been at the time. Then Twitter came along, and my blogging fell by the way side, not quickly, I still blogged a lot about different things, but I became more sporadic. I created many other websites, for cars, for DotNetNuke, for photography, for whatever. Those sites saw content get generated.

Over on my Photography site I have a blog documenting our adventures to see the Total Eclipse from Jackson Missouri on April 8th, 2024

In February of 2024, I had the pleasure of spending some time in Florida for a work conference. While there, I kept an eye on the forecast and space launch schedule to see if I might catch a rocket launch while in town. SpaceX was planning to launch a Falcon 9 with the NASA PACE payload. The launch ended up being delayed for 3 days, finally happening early in the morning on February 8th, 2024.
