Because jekyll generates static html, it doesn’t have a native way to include comments on a website. It’s possible to have comments by using something like disqus, but I was looking for something that I can control myself.

So, yesterday, I’ve switched from wordpress to jekyll for my weblog. But there was also a second wordpress site running on my domain. I’ve created that website (school assignment) when I was doing night school. On the one hand I didn’t want to destroy this wordpress site, but on the other hand I consider it cumbersome to maintain a website with wordpress that will not change in the future, because a wordpress site is only “safe” if you keep everything (wordpress, plugins, …) up to date. I also didn’t want to change the look of this site. I just wanted to convert this site to static HTML, without changing the look of the site.

I’ve started using wordpress in aug 2011. Wordpress is nice to quickly post new content. But wordpress is also a complex piece of software that uses PHP and a mySQL database.

Because I’m doing night-school, I don’t have that much free time any more. That’s why my pfSense firewall was still running on version 2.2.6. But now it’s school holidays, so let’s upgrade :)

My normal desktop PC was always on - doing some tasks in the background - but the noisy fan was annoying me. And because I had a spare ALIX 2D13 lying around that was doing nothing but gathering dust, I was wondering if I could switch some tasks from my normal PC to this ALIX 2D13 and only switch my normal PC on when needed.
