Curt Clifton

I updated my site — curtclifton.net — to support dynamic type on iOS. Super easy. Thanks for the write-up @chockenberry@mastodon.social! furbo.org/2024/07/0…

I finally hacked together some basic dark mode support on my site. I’m not thrilled with the blues for links and code highlighting, but it’s a step forward. And now I have semantic colors in my css, so it’s easy to work on the palette.

I’m finally reading Good Omens. It’s right in the sweet spot for me: hilarious, absurd, and sacrilegious, with delightful turns of phrase on every page.

Looks like my afternoon of DNS hacking almost worked. Mastodon cross-posting from micro.blog might have been the only casualty.

Spent an enjoyable Saturday afternoon hacking on DNS, GitHub pages, and micro.blog settings. I think I finally have everything behind SSL certificates and updating correctly.

Either that or this post will fail and I’ll also have plans for an enjoyable Sunday afternoon.

It’s time to check out Mastodon, I hear. I’m @curtclifton@indieweb.social over there. (over here? cross-posting is so confusing)

Finally took my Exo print to be framed and found this behind it. Li is the best!

Red Argentine shrimp and diver scallops on the grill. Jalapeño-coconut marinade.

It’s a beautiful night for a ballgame. 093C5E3B-A9D6-43E7-A923-E76DA475A613.jpg

Ballpark number 7. Go Cubs!

Me, employee 7, and the original Mac pirate flag.

Stay safe out there.

It’s good to be running again.

Skied in a blizzard. Check.

Just a bit of snow in Tahoe.

Defying Gravity…

On this Thanksgiving we’re saying “mahalo”and substituting fresh grilled shrimp for turkey.

I look forward to being able to breathe again! 179AA098-4529-4B97-B039-AD6311A7A4FD.jpg

We’re going in the right direction today. Aloha!
