For years now I have been dissatisfied with our gas cooker: Its difficult to keep clean with so many twiddly bits It looks ugly The oven is too low and as a result is extremely difficult to use and clean Really we wanted to replace it with an eye level oven and one of those electric hobs that visibly consist of only a simple glass sheet; originally ‘ceramic’, but now induction.
This site is created using Hugo. I evaluated several different static site generators) SSGs to find what I consider to be the best balance between ease of use, features and flexibility. There are too many to test them all, I just looked at the most common/popular ones that seemed to be well supported. None of them came anywhere close to being as easy to set up and configure as the blurb led me to expect.
I first began blogging many years ago with Google, but gave up and deleted my account when Google turned from “do no evil” to being very evil – by stealing my personal data. I vowed never to blog again until I could host the site myself. I realise this is not really going to stop data theft as all the greedy tech. corporations will still hoover it up as they attempt to feed their advertising algorithms and LLMs.
