KruXoR - October 2022 - Newsletter

Maybe i should convert this into a monthly newsletter, as this seems to be about the amount of time it takes me to get motivted to write another one of these posts! :) 

Its kind of a anytime news letter. 

Spam is annoying

I have been getting quite a lot of spam lately in the comment system. Its just bots filling in the comments, and its getting quite hard to filter it. I use the google recapture with server side checking of the key, but the spam seems to still get through this somehow. I have disabled the comments for now.

I tried adding it to discus but its just an iframe comment system, which is a bit annoying and not really what im looking for.

Sub Spam

Subscriber spam, they (the bots) even seem to submit emails to this so i cant tell if its a real email subscriber or not. I replaced this with a very ugly subscribe form from mail chimp, but its really just annoying. 

I will just have to manually filter these emails i think.  

Boots

My cat died this week, she had a long life for a cat i think 22 years. There is a widget with her gif video on the side of this site. I may do a page as well, but i guess that is a bit weird.

In this case my anchor this week becomes driving almost 2hrs outside of Atlanta to one of my favorite hard core gyms in the world.. MetroFlex aka The Dungeon. The gym owners turn the heat way up so it becomes a fun sweat box and the gym members just watch from afar and leave me alone. I happily drive myself long distances to find MY ANCHOR. Our anchor allows us to have balance, focus and be as productive as possible. And if you're in the middle of a heavy set and your headphones start to fall off your head, like mine did here.. well.. f*ck the headphones. Let em break and fall. You can always get a new pair, but the iron ain't ever gonna lift itself.
