Hello from a New Notebook
Starting a blog is a bit like planting a tree: the best time was years ago, the second best time is today. So here I am, planting another one. This page will be my notebook for practical things I learn, and occasionally for thoughts that have nowhere else to go.
Short introduction: my name is Leo. I work with computers, mostly the unglamorous kind of work - backups, updates, coaxing old machines through one more year of service. In my free time I read, walk, and cook food that my family politely describes as interesting.
What will you find here? Plain-language tech notes first. When I finally solve a problem that has been nagging me for weeks, I write down the solution so I can find it again - and so that someone else with the same problem can too. Beyond that: book notes, small projects, and the occasional observation about everyday life with technology.

No promises about frequency. I would rather write rarely and say something useful than post daily and say nothing. If you found this page, welcome - the kettle is always on, metaphorically speaking.
First real note coming soon: how I finally got an old laptop running a modern system without spending a cent.
