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.

Our brains are wired to find things we are looking for - if your always cynical or waiting for things to go wrong, then your life will reflect that. On the other hand, having a positive outlook on life will bring you joy and provide you with inspiration when you least expect it ☀️🍉🌴
