The Sorry State of Technology
I would like someone to explain this to me. First, let me set the stage: I purchased a Dell laptop in November 2022. Fast-forward to December 2023. Not quite 13 months after my purchase, I lifted the lid and heard crackling. At this time, the framework pulled away...

My New Kindle Vella Story, Treasure
I've been working on a new project via Kindle Vella. What's Kindle Vella, you say? Or maybe not, since it's been in existence for almost two years now. So yes, I guess you could say that I'm late to the party. Better late than never, I always say. Just in case you...
