G'morning!

It's been about two weeks since the last post, but I've been working behind-the-scenes to keep the videos rolling. I've uploaded and scheduled another 6 videos, taking the current video schedule out to at least November 18, 2026. I also filled in the missing September 30th window by bumping up my existing queue by a week. Following is the current video schedule:

- October 7, 2026: Servicing a Logitech G305 Mouse (22:35) (Rescheduled from October 14, 2026)
- October 14, 2026: Taking a Look at Two HP Stream Laptops (1:00:10) (Rescheduled from October 21, 2026)
- October 19, 2026: (Bonus Video) HP's crappy BIOS doing HP crap (2:10) (Rescheduled from October 26, 2026)
- October 21, 2026: Testing a Dell Optiplex Mystery Motherboard (35:12) (NEW!)
- October 28, 2026: Theseus Reborn: Part I (1:13:06) (NEW!)
- November 4, 2026: IBM NetVista 6349-17U Overview and Testing (50:03) (NEW!)
- November 9, 2026: TCG Productions is annoyed by power strip plugs for 2 minutes and 13 seconds (2:13) (NEW!)
- November 11, 2026: Dell Dimension B110 Overview and Testing (55:15) (NEW!)
- November 18, 2026: Theseus Reborn: Part II (1:17:57) (NEW!)

Additional videos will be coming down the pipeline soon, including a potentially very exciting system build project, follow-up videos to several systems in both these videos and previous videos, including the Gateway 510S, Packard Bell PackMate 5996CDT, the 1993 Gateway 2000 80486 system, and more!

Finally getting back into the swing of video editing for the first time since March or thereabouts, so it's been a minute for sure, and there's been lots of changes in the time that's passed. Details coming soon, but I figured that I'd share a screenshot of what I'm up to at the moment.

Hello and welcome back (or welcome in if you're stopping by for the first time)!

This is just a quick announcement post that trifton.net has officially come home! This website is now officially hosted at home as a Debian VM running on Hyperion, my main Proxmox hypervisor. I've added another blog to the matrix here, and the Trifton's World blog is once again working properly now that I'm self-hosting everything. (The TW or T3 blog will get a writeup soonish with details of how this all works, as well as what finally pushed me to move my hosting home from Whois, but that's another time for another place.............)
