Site moved to Debian 12 Bookworm and Upgraded
Today has been pretty exciting. I asked too much of a 2 GB instance during this transition as emails need to be imported and spam checked. The magic of a cloud instance is I can bump it up to 4 GB for a little while. Performance is nice now. I’m not liking it so much

Bounce! Return-Path! Complaints!
I used to send the newsletter through Simple Email Service (SES) on Amazon’s cloud thing, AWS. I found SES when I looked for alternatives to services like Constant Contact and MailChimp. We have thousands of subscribers, so whether a service charges by subscriber or per message, I found the costs like 10x more than we

Karen’s Replicator 2
Somebody asked on YouTube if Replicator was going to be rewritten. I have said yes since 2017. I’ve started dozens of times, including again today. Spoiler: 45 minutes of very little getting done. There’s some bad music. And I prove to myself I shouldn’t do these online. 🙂

Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) Toolkit from Microsoft Community

Karen’s Feed Reader | Programming for Windows in CSharp (Pilot Stream)
Karen’s Feed Reader will be an Atom/RSS feed reader. More later. I streamed this a few minutes ago on our YouTube channel, https://youtube.com/@karenware.

New Server Instance
Our website has been moved to a new server instance at Linode.com in Dallas, Texas, USA. It was running on a 1gb instance, and now it’s running on a 2gb instance. This is trivia. The point is that if you see something weird, that’s why. Currently the Download counter isn’t working because this server is

Site Certificate Renewed
This site uses Let’s Encrypt’s free domain-validated certificates to secure the conversation we’re having right now. The site had been configured with an older certificate from another server, so it didn’t get updated with the new certificate when it was available. Now that problem has been fixed. For a period of time before this morning,
