Back to the 0.19 binary I have in my build directory. I thought I would experiment with new binaries for Zola and Hugo via Homebrew. So far it is NOT working out, though at the moment the Hugo issues ...

@passthejoe Update: Even the newer, actively developed themes appear to be having trouble with #Zola 0.23 due to the move of the Tera templating engine from v.1 to v.2. There are so many deprecations in there that have broken themes.

For now, I'll stick with the 0.22 and 0.19 binaries, and it'll be look-see time in terms of a new theme.

If I could understand how the code in my theme (Hook) worked, I would start fixing it. I took a look and couldn't figure it out.

And for some reason, https://www.getzola.org/themes/ is only showing 10 themes today ... not sure if something's up server-wise, or other.

The latest release of #Zola, v0.23, has shit the bed on my site. Even the most recent update, 0.23.2, hasn't fixed the issue I'm experiencing. This kind of thing is supposed to happen in #Hugo, not Zo...

Back to the 0.19 binary I have in my build directory. I thought I would experiment with new binaries for Zola and Hugo via Homebrew. So far it is NOT working out, though at the moment the Hugo issues are few and solvable.

Both sites likely need new themes and configs ... but I'm hoping that Zola's issues will be resolved soon.

This 2011 #iMac has been running #Debian since version 10. Still kicking on the original install. It's maybe a little remarkable. The Mac has its original 1 TB spinning drive, which I haven't wanted to replace since that would require removing the screen. I'm too lazy for that. I did stuff it with 20 GB of RAM, and that makes it usable in the 2020s.

I could be wrong, but I've been using Chromium instead of Firefox lately because I know what I'm getting with Google. They're not promising anything and then disappointing me. I don't feel the grift because it's just Google. Mozilla seems like the longest of cons.

I tried to set up a VM today with #Xfce on #NetBSD.

I couldn't make it happen. I can get NetBSD set up with networking and the default X11 window manager, but when I try to get it to log in via XDM with Xfce, the system crashes, and killing the VM trashes the filesystem.

I couldn't find a clear, up-to-date tutorial on how to make this happen in NetBSD 10, and the NetBSD Handbook really didn't provide a complete recipe.

@KaiXin Those are a couple of complications. I used to do remote Hugo builds on a couple of systems. Guess I was lucky.

Now I build Hugo and Zola locally and can switch between binaries -- my own and what I can get from Brew and other Linuxes via Distrobox. I had good luck with OpenBSD, too.

Yeah I guess OpenBSD will not upgrade Hugo that often? I am considering switching to stable repo in Debian.
