IN A MOMENT : CHAPTER 1

In a Moment

by Johannes Silverfox

Entry 1:

It’s been a while since I’ve written anything in this journal, but something happened to me today that I don’t yet feel comfortable talking about with anyone else. I received an email this morning from my World History 301 professor with the assignment details for this semester’s project. I read it carefully, then gasped. “Reginald Silver’s my partner?!” I said out loud in my empty dorm room. I didn’t know him personally, but then again, no one on campus did. Why a scion of the famously wealthy Silver family had decided to attend this rather isolated technical university rather than a member of the Ivy League or another prestigious school was a complete mystery and the subject of occasional idle speculation.

PRIDE 2024

My thoughts on Pride Month in 2024 and my queer journey.

2023

Looking back on the year that was and what the year ahead might bring for me.

RUNNING DEBIAN 12 ON RASPBERRY PI

Due to general dissatisfaction with the distro I had running on a Pi (along with Red Hat’s source rugpull), I decided to try Debian 12 on it. It worked so well that I converted my other Pi a few weeks later. This is an account of the experience I had with doing so and what I learned along the way.

THOUGHTS ON RHEL REBUILDS

As a longtime RHEL/RHEL-like administrator at work and home, I have a few things to say about Red Hat’s latest rugpull.

THOUGHTS ON FREEBSD

It had been quite a while since I’d tried out FreeBSD, and I figured, why not give it a fresh look for my latest project? This time, I liked what I saw…for the most part.

WELCOME

Time to get this going.
