The time is 9:11 AM on Saturday, June 6th 2021. This is my second post of the day, the first one just being about computers. I’m in my reading nook on the second floor overlooking the street. I’ve got my new standing desk, the futon is covered by a proper cover and not a bedsheet…… Continue reading Journal Entry 6.12.2021

I primarily use Windows but switched my entire family over to Apple products. Apple is easier, prettier and simpler to use for those that use the basics in computing. I also have a Mac.
Mac Big Sur and Canon Printer MX340 Solved
I am so proud of myself right now. I’ve found a solution to get my old wireless Canon printer working even with a new version of Mac OS. I just spent two hours on it and even yelled out in delight when I heard the printer begin printing from my Mac. I yelled so loud…… Continue reading Mac Big Sur and Canon Printer MX340 Solved
Journal Entry – Computer Stories
It is 6:37 AM on Saturday June 12th, 2021. I’m writing on my new MacBook Pro. Well, it isn’t exactly new, it is from 2013 and was my wife’s MacBook. She’s such a lucky girl she got a brand new MacBook and I’m taking her hand-me-down. It is ironic because I’m the computer/internet nerd in…… Continue reading Journal Entry – Computer Stories

The leaves do not change colors much here on the coast, and it is…… Continue reading Journal Entry 10.11.19
Encryption, Synology and External Disks

We’re in the middle of a storm and I can hear the wind rushing through the trees. I made it to the…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 2.18.2017
Journal Entry 2.20.2016
I’m writing this post from the kitchen on a MacBook Pro. I haven’t had a laptop in many years and think I’ll enjoy having one again as it will allow me to not be stuck in my office when I want to write. I came across this computer by complete accident. It was my mom’s…… Continue reading Journal Entry 2.20.2016
Why I hate iPhoto
We have a crisis folks. Ok, we’ll not a total crisis just yet as I take precautions. Yesterday we had a sudden power outage and of course the wife had about 17 applications open on her Mac, one of them being iPhoto. The thing I HATE about iPhoto is it stores all the pictures…… Continue reading Why I hate iPhoto
