       Not much today
       
         Managed to start a ranty blog-post
         about an ordeal with Lowe's.
         But as with all my blog-posts, I edit them with
         ed(1), vi(1), or vim(1) as raw HTML or Markdown,
         and let the Nikola[1] static site generator[1]
         do all the conversions, linking, RSS generation,
         etc, run a dev-server for local proofing and
         then rsync it up to my web-server.
         And it all gets committed to my blog's
         git repo for keeping it in sync across machines.
       
         As to be expected, it all works uneventfully
         on an old CLI-only environment.
         However, Python/Nikola can be a spot slow
         on this older hardware.
         I've considered the idea of moving to Hugo
         (which shouldn't be a particularly
         onorous migration) and the speed-difference
         might be worth it for these #OldComputerChallenge
         occasions.
       
         This OCC happens to fall during a somewhat busy
         season:  the kids are out of school and I
         still need to get my retained hours in at
         $DAYJOB, so my play-on-old-hardware time
         is pretty limited.
