Expired Wiki, you say? in Site Updates

I’ve been busy and backlogged on PB stuff, but I wanted to mention that I’m aware of the expired wiki. It was put together mostly by one awesomely dedicated community member. I don’t think she’s been around lately and I’ve tried touching base. I didn’t even realize there was a subscription involved.

Anyway, I believe I’ve got an archive copy that is mostly up-to-date, so even if I don’t make contact and take over the wiki subscription, it can at least be ported somewhere when I have the time to do so. Meanwhile, don’t forget about my Tips and Tricks book - while not as comprehensive as the wiki, there’s some good formatting info in there.

The current bane of my existence (for those of you that are technically inclined) - I recently let Windows 8 update my firmware on a laptop that doubles as my Prosebox development environment, with a separate Linux partition.

Windows, in its infinite graciousness as an operating system, decided to wipe out my dual boot menu as part of a firmware update. So I’m currently trying to figure out how to boot back into Linux. It’s proving to be more challenging than I thought it would be. Derp.

So one more thing to add to my list. Might just end up doing a full reformatting and go all-Linux on that lappy. Hey, Linux supports Steam now, so it looks like I can play The Talos Principle (my current distraction) without Windows. Who needs ya, Microsoft? (kidding - I’m a .NET developer by day)

Now if I just had a really easy way to build a PB dev environment from scratch. Also on my to-do list.
