Create a new directory in wp-content/themes — let's call it danktheme in this example. Create two files in that directory: style.css and functions.php with the following contents:

/*
 Theme Name:   Your Themename
 description:  Your Description
 Author:       Your Name
 Template:     twentytwentyone
 Version:      1.0.0
*/

and

<?php
add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'my_theme_enqueue_styles', 11);
function my_theme_enqueue_styles()
{
    wp_enqueue_style('danktheme', get_stylesheet_uri());
}

That's it: now you can select "Your Themename" in the admin interface. If you don't want to use twentytwentyone as the parent theme — because it's not the most recent one when you read this, for example — replace it in the style.css. Yes, in the stylesheet, I'm not making this up, rules are rules.

I was always fascinated with the idea of turning ideas into data within a computer and then turning this data into a physical object. With this, I'm probably not alone given that 3D printing is all the rage in nerd world. After some googeling around and buying a printer on Amazon Prime day, I devised the following plan to learn 3D printing as a skill: 1. print sample shape shipped with the printer 2. print model from the internet 3. modify existing model 4. create a model from scratch The intention behind this plan was to spread out different problems and technologies involves as much as possible. So it's never a daunting task. Show the steps!

I am currently comparing different virtualization solutions for my home. This is because I want to do all kinds of things like openhab, cronjobs, DNS-based adblocking, and gateways both in via SSH and out via different VPNs/Tor, and splitting those into different machines sounds not only reasonable but is also necessary in some cases when there are different operating systems involved. This blag post will document a few nuggets of knowledge I collected while trying out VMware as hypervisor. You want to know more?

Sometimes it really surprises me how something as mundane as JSON encoding and decoding datetime objects in Python is not readily solve-able with a simple google query. I guess this is caused by the sheer amount of code fragments floating around confusing The Kraken. With this blag post, I'd happily like to add to this mess: Show me your code snippet!

Since I already ran into this problem twice, here is a tiny reminder for my future self and potentially others that google something along the lines of the title. If you did docker pull arangodb at some point in the past, then ran a ArangoDB container for a while with something like the command blow and want to update, just follow the error messages! Follow them already!
