This is something that has been on my mind for a very long time, but I haven't written anything about it until now.
Remember my SONY Digital-Audio-Tape deck? The truth is, that I almost only use as an Optical-Digital to analog audio converter. It's even more true ever since the tape mechanism...
![Secure Boot Certificates Expiring 2026 – Part 2 [Sinchen Rant]](/data/attachments/576/576410-f92c7f31a6c1ad48ec206d0153d46ac6.jpg?hash=qGIKLo7uWN)

"When a loved one dies, and you weep at their grave, remember that they are not where you lay. They do not reside beneath your feet covered in dirt and mud, they are above your own head. They have risen, not fallen. Look to the sky, not the ground with your face in your hands."
