Hi, I’m Chris

I make websites and things. Lately, I’ve been experimenting a lot with Large Language Models (colloquially known as AI) to test their capabilities and to help make my job and D&D Dungeon Mastering life easier. Feel free to click around to learn more about stuff I like to do and/or am working on.

  • Why dual-boot Linux when you can run it from a USB flash drive?

    I’ve been a sideline fan of Linux for a long time.  My very first experience with it was buying one of those 800 page, dictionary-sized technical manuals for Linux which came with Red Hat, Slackware and Caldera.  I effectively destroyed my Windows 95 box trying to get Red Hat installed and failing. After that, I was much more cautious,…

  • Random Song of the Day #15

    Today I’m going to do some shameless self-promotion for the random song of the day: my remix of Amanda Palmer’s “Map of Tasmania” from her new album “Amanda Palmer Goes Down Under.”  To be brutally honest, I don’t really like the song all that much.  I saw “remix contest” and I jumped to enter before…

  • Random Song of the Day #…uhh…14

    Yes, it’s been a while since I’ve done one.  I’ve been waiting until I had a chance to figure out which one of @TheBoyEllis’ songs on Soundcloud I should use.  In the meantime, this one comes courtesy of @tpbdotorg: Now I’m going to go download his album, which you can do, too, right here.

  • [RPM2011] Writing a soundtrack for a book

    For anyone curious, here’s a copy of my notes (an earlier draft, I’ve added to them a bit since).

  • A History of Bedroom Production — Part 1

    Mark started his history of music production yesterday, and I thought I would follow suit.  I’ve never documented the process.  As I warned on his blog, my history is messy and doesn’t involve fancy equipment.  In fact, to a large extent, it mostly involves the cheapest equipment available.  But I’ll get to that. It all…

  • MLK

    MLK

    I’m not the type of person who likes to commemorate or memorialize the occasion of a day like Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.  For the most part, my observation of any holiday is whether I choose to take the day off and (at least since my son’s been in school) influenced by whether G has…

  • Jaded

    Mark’s blog (my blogging buddy for postaday/postaweek) got over 1,000 pageviews on his blogging buddy post which was featured on Freshly Pressed (the front page of WordPress.com). I’d like to be excited for him, but having seen this sort of meteoric rise in traffic on a single post in the past (one that’s actually not…
