Being immersed by technology from a young age, I believe I have been fortunate to own a myriad of different computers thus far. Those that stick out to me being the first (family) computer running Windows 98, the time where I strayed to using an iMac briefly to then resort with computers running Windows OS’s again. In the future, it is likely that I will relocate to Linux for personal matters. At least when I will straighten out my very specific gaming reasons.
Nevertheless, that will not be the rantings for today.

Let me share you another anecdote. For context, it starts with my recent purchase of a custom-built gaming computer, being my third one of this particular class. This time I moved from a Nvidia GTX 1060 to a AMD RX 9070 XT card. Yeah, a huge upgrade. “I should certainly have no issues with disposing of both my previous computer and my even-older gaming build I have, for some reason, hoarded over the years,” I thought.

That’s right, having an unique name ain’t too shabby for once!

It also means that I have successfully deployed an Azure Web App with WordPress, configured DNS records using CloudFlare, found the most minimalistic WordPress theme to utilize and, in the end, managed to restore some of my older technical blog posts for some content padding at least.
It’s kind of funny realizing now that I went ahead with this quest almost precisely five years since I produced any blog content whatsoever. Might’ve been a subconscious calling, who knows.

Rantings aside, welcome to a fresh start of my new tech blog! My name is Hanessa Milaszewski and I’m an Expert Engineer in Sweden specializing in End User Computing solutions. My heart leans primarily towards products called Citrix DaaS and Azure Virtual Desktop, but in this blog you can expect tips and musings for anything I’ve come across in my technical field of expertise or perhaps even in my personal lab projects.
I’m very glad you found your way here and do hope you return regurlarly for any upcoming content in store! 🤗
