I've not gotten far in it, but it's been an interesting read, thus far. It picks up with Jackson teaching at VMI when war breaks out. Jackson is one of my favorite generals. I'm hoping to keep reading it (I get distracted very easy: I also have a biography of Jefferson Davis that I'm plowing through). npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch GM! npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch Perfect morning to sit by a fire! https://image.nostr.build/a1a477d0e55786413bc9c206121c9e2b5a9385680ccc9d2ebfaecb295998aaa9.jpg npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch GM, everyone! Stay warm out there! My day's work will consist of cutting and stacking more firewood and, hopefully, starting a new batch of mead. I think I'll do a blueberry mead, this time. npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch From what I have read, Start9 is more tightly integrated, but to me the interface was always clunky. I kept going with it bc of the pain of switching. Then, after the drive crash, I decided why not? Umbrel has a slicker UI and, from what I've seen so far, its integration with the available apps seems pretty good. npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch Jaguar Racing Green is my favorite. npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch "Only government should have the power to devalue the currency!" On January 13, 1404, the English Parliament passed the Act of Multipliers, a law forbidding alchemists from turning base metal into gold. The stated goal was to protect royal power and prevent currency devaluation. npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch I switched from Start9 to Umbrel 10 days ago (drive crashed and I had to start fresh, anyway). I'm at ~74%. It's frustrating, but I'm liking Umbrel more, so far. npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch Good morning! npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch Howdy from Texas! npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch Espresso is the best-o! 😎 npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch https://image.nostr.build/96df9c10151ee67bb9398ad68a8e176f1329fc007c9760c2f31b779b9d217eae.jpg https://image.nostr.build/96df9c10151ee67bb9398ad68a8e176f1329fc007c9760c2f31b779b9d217eae.jpg npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch No brown sugar on them sweet taters? npub18rz2wtwr6vmwwwclx5zp5wqy6c8j8x4s0gnwusg8hmxt3z68n0lshjm3v0 Mitch Not today, Fed!
