(Sticky) Meta: Migration 0

The operating system of the VPS (virtual private server) provided by my hosting provider has reached EOL (end of life). Sometime soon, my hosting provider will migrate this site to a new, currently supported OS.

This site may be unavailable for a bit, hopefully for no more than a few hours. But it will not go away.

Update 2023-12-23:

I have been notified that migration is scheduled for December 28. Expect little or no posting on that day.

If all goes well, normal (?) activity will resume with minimal interruption.

Update:

Per a message from my hosting provider that “maintenance” will be performed on my server on the afternoon of Wednesday, December 6, I suspect that that’s the day. They did not specify the nature of the “maintenance,” but I got a dollar to a doughnut . . . . Apparently, I lost that bet.

This website does not track you.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
