Hey folks! A while back, I talked about some possibilities for the future of StP. While I ultimately decided to not take action on the ideas I presented there (mostly due to time constraints), I feel it was a productive discussion, and folks were very supportive of the ideas in general. Since...

Along with rebuilding the server, I went ahead and moved the website over to a new IP address today. The reason for this is that our website hosting (Linode) gave us an IP address that had been flagged by IP Proof point, and it took me a few months to notice there was an issue. IP Proof Point is...

Hey folks, I just upgraded my laptop, and no longer need this one. It's a Surface Pro 5 that I bought right at the start of the pandemic about two years ago. You can look up the full specs here (this is the i5 cpu model): https://surfacetip.com/surface-pro-2017/ This has serviced me well over...

I just slept at the first location last night. Pretty nice, plenty of shade, plenty of room for parking, one neighbor in an rv. Decent verizon reception, no water access. Its a good candidate, but I'm going to check the second location since a river would be nice.

Hey folks, just a quick update to let the community know that I've finally gotten things back in order here on the website after the database move and rebuilding several portions of the site. @reeed was incredibly helpful in restoring the file library, which I had just about given up hope on...

I've updated the available reactions today and their point scores: The 'thank you' I've been meaning to add for quite a while, in order to reduce non-useful posts. Hopefully the new 'thank you' reaction will suffice for those kinds of responses. A quick note for mobile users, you have to...
