Found a great deal in a new NAS that hosts the webpage.  The old one was getting a bit erratic, and being seven years old it was time to retire it.  It came a few days ago but I only found the time to configure it yesterday.  It's the first time I was able to use Hyperbackup.  It mostly worked but the PHP setting got wrecked and I wasn't sure exactly what was wrong at first.  It also didn't carry over the SSL certs.  I think it's an issue of the settings but there is a divide between moving the configuration over and reloading the entire system that is annoying. 

Anyway, I use Joomla 3, and now that Joomla 5 is out it's a bit frustrating that there isn't a path forward without re-creating the website.  If I did I would just leave out Community Builder, the Forum, and build in chat function.  They were fun to play with but I think I am the only one that used them... and even that wasn't much.  It's like playing in an empty opera house.  I may play around with the old NAS get the hang of the Joomla 5.

Brian Wade's game in Pathfinder has started.  We're actually on game 4!  We are all learning the system so it's a bit slow and frustrating at times.  Also first level... yeah, you always forget what a drag that is.  Like a traumatic memory.  Can't hit, one shots and failed saves.  Oh, the failed saves.  Sigh.  We just made level 2, so I am sure I am a transformed man.

I updated the Archives to include the most recent games we finished.  I say "recent" with some irony since it hadn't been updated in years.  I mean the blogs were all there but after a few years they get buried in the stack of more recent ones.  What about all the poor innocents who are crying out for those titillating stories and can't find them?  Well, I've got their back.  Look in the Archives.
