It's taken considerably longer than I would have liked, but I have finally returned to the land of the keyboard and mouse. For those who like to know these things, my newly acquired PC is an HP EliteDesk 800 G3 SFF, which although hardly cutting-edge is a considerable upgrade on the last one.¹ I've now got an i5-7500 with 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB NVMe SSD. It may not (officially) be good enough to run Windows 11, but as I'm typing this on Linux Mint 21.3 Edge why should I care about that? :P Early days, but so far so good!
¹ Even when it was working. :P
The more interesting thing, though, is that this means I will be able to resume several features I'd had to neglect when all I had was a phone and a slightly crotchety Bluetooth keyboard. For a start, My Little Repeats will return soon – that means within a week of now. I'll also be able to get under way with Sounds of 2015, something I'm really looking forward to. Plus the Officially Uploaded episode list will stop languishing in a several-months-old slough of despond. Or possibly a despond of Slough. Who knows?
Thank you for bearing with me throughout all this, and I very much look forward to writing more here again – starting with Ponyfic Roundup, which will be up as expected by the end of tomorrow. :)
huzzah! :D
