One of the things I enjoy about running my own business is that I get the opportunity to do a wide array of things that aren't my typical offerings.
Ex. Winterize a cottage for an existing customer, Install multiple cell phone boosters and radio antennas, Work on marketing and promotional material
Yes at very least a password reset is in order. It's so common for this stuff these days. It's sad
I really need to give this account some more love.
Recently I launched latest website project! This time it is for my good friends over at Higher Caliber Carpentry and Roofing Ltd.
I've known these guys for years and they did stellar work for my family.

Today was a day of scripting. I've been cleaning up some of my local utility scripts. Some are used to backup files and folders, some are used to semi-automate other things like website backups, file copies and renaming, all sorts of stuff. Today was mostly bash.
Last week I set up 4 cameras, a hub, and some door sensors for a customer. I'm really liking these Tapo devices. The cameras can use the Tapo Cloud service to store recordings or you can put an SD card in each one to store the recorded video locally.
Happy Canada Day from Southwest Tech Solutions! Please enjoy the holiday responsibly! #canada #canadaday #CelebrateFreedom
The Commodore VIC 20 was the first computer I ever had. I picked up this gem over the weekend. I paid more than the price on the box but not by much. It's all in the box minus a video cable (I have one in my stash). #commodore #vic20 #8bit #retrocomputer #technology

What software / tools does your business use in it's day to day operations? I am curious. I use Google Workspace for most of my admin needs. I also use VSCode, FileZilla, WordPress for the sites I build. I use MobaXTerm for all my remote access needs. #tools #software #it #nerdlife

When I started my business I never thought I'd be building so many websites. Things don't always go the way you expect. However, I've been able to provide a service that was needed and at a price point that serves this well. I love building websites and it's been great! #webdev
