Pinball Expo 2024
Just got home from Expo. What a blast! Spent a lot of time in the tournament room volunteering and playing poorly. Super cool stuff this year for the 40th year of expo.

wordpress.com sucks
Moved some stuff around the other day to preserve my benharri.wordpress.com subdomain. I discovered that a redirect costs $13/year to be able to send your traffic to your own site. This all feels so hypocritical with Matt Mullenweg s recent ranting about WP Engine disabling post revisions. Bro, come on . wp.com is just as bad if [ ]
