Actually went and read the article after replying. Very similar setup but DS224. That sucks that they removed hardware transcoding on yours. Think it still works for me but I’ve been trying everything in containers since last summer. May try going back to off the shelf one.

Omg yes!! So much fun dorking out with servers, and docker containers on my little nas. Check out Romm too if you want an old emulator sitch. Tailscale is also a good friend for remote connections.

Don’t Mess Up Prod

I created a simple WordPress plugin called Don't Mess Up Prod, which adds a little environment indicator to your admin bar.

If you want to go this route, a headless wp theme with custom rest api end points is relatively straightforward. Main thing I’ve run into is losing the post preview that people are used to. Might be possible to do something that just served up markdown content 🤔

@davekellam.com - Think we got it.

Your hat is fine, and it was our generator that started changing some things (we're adding gradients). If you do a hard refresh, and then equip / unequip the hat it should work again.

Ah, back when I had a MacBook Pro and desktop PC, I got a HDMI and a USB switch for that for the LG screen.

I guess in theory the Dell should support switching properly, but if not and depending on how annoying the cable shuffling is, a USB4 switch might even be quicker and more reliable?

For a recent project, I tried something different: running two themes side-by-side on the same #WordPress site using #ThemeSwitcher Pro. The unusual part is that both themes shared a single header.

I really need to get a better system for tab management (ANY system) because this is ridiculous 🙃 It gets worse too, this is just from one "Space"! I have four more. At least 800 on the active dev one. My poor Zen browser.

I'm not even trying to hoard them, I just look stuff up, switch tabs, forget
