I'm not even sure what is going on with this site anymore. I think my ADHD took over. Or maybe I started working at the same company in Severance and my brain is getting messed with over and over. I have almost 30 post in draft in various states of ready to publish. I think I'm at that point where I have lots of ideas but most of them suck. (George Carlin).

To just jump into a random topic. My main computer for the last I guess 3 years has been a Framework 13 with a 11th gen Intel processor. It has had it's ups and downs, but mostly good. I started out with 16GB of RAM and that quickly became apparent to be not enough. I was able to upgrade to 64GB of GSkill RAM from NewEgg and I'm questioning if it is causing problems. I'm running Linux for my OS by the way. I started out running PopOS 22.04 but upgraded to Ubuntu 24.04 when it came out. I get random lock ups and freezes and I am suspicious of the RAM. If I could do it again now I would get the AMD Ryzen, it wasn't available for the Framework at the time I was buying. Also at the time when I bought AI wasn't as big as it is now. It would be nice to get better performance locally with Ollama but there is always the cloud right.

So what does all this have to do with mashed potatoes. Well, nothing. Either I generate the post title from AI or maybe I wrote the whole thing with AI. Or just possibly I've been writer's blocked for a while and just needed to get someone written and post to get over the hump.
