I am a computer nerd with a background in system administration and systems engineering. Like everybody, I run into issues with my computer, mobile phone, tablet, websites, you name it.
And sometimes these problems have me stumped. Like everybody, I’ll turn to Google. Usually there’s a solution ready, or at least a pointer that gets me looking in the right place.
But not always. Every now and then, there are just no relevant Google results.
This website is my method of feeding my solutions back into Google. So that the next person who has the same problem can find a ready solution – or at least a pointer to get them looking in the right place.
If it helps even a single person, my job here is done.

This website uses whatever cookies WordPress uses. Geekworker.com does not use Google Analytics, Google Fonts, or anything like that. Don’t like cookies at all? Click the “Deny” button on the cookie banner. This should set only one cookie, which tells the website that you do not want cookies. (I know, it’s ironic, but that’s the only way to make that work.)
The webserver itself logs the usual technical data. IP address, URL accessed, date and time, web browser make and version. This data is logged locally and only used if technical issues need to be resolved. It’s not handed to any third parties.
If you choose to post a comment, WordPress logs the name you provide, the email address, and the IP you used at the time. The data logged in WordPress’ database will not be provided to any third parties. The one exception here: Geekworker.com uses Akismet to check comments for spam; please read up on how Akismet handles data before posting a comment. Unfortunately, this is absolutely necessary; it’s that or not allow comments at all.
