Even Flatpaks get annoying sometimes during dev work. Yes I do need to talk to that device. Yes I know the risks. It’s ok. It’s just a microcontroller. Yes I know what I’m doing. It’s not going to hurt you. I wrote it!

Thank goodness for flatseal. If I were to do it again, I would probably do it the “old fashioned” way.

Take a peek at the CAD Sketcher add-on. https://www.cadsketcher.com/

I did it purely so I could fully back up my server VM and move it to new hardware when I wanted to upgrade. I just have to install Proxmox, attach the NAS, and pull the VM backup. And just like that everything is back to running just as it was before the upgrade! Now just faster and more energy efficient!

The last time I looked at time I missed something. I want to use my existing chime and have it also use that power supply as a power source. Turns out the battery one does that! I missed that months ago! I was going to get a Ring Pro or whatever to get it to do that! This is so much better! Moving up the todo list now!

I had Firefox installed from apt, then suddenly it became a snap, then forcing it back to apt by priority, and then it still becoming a snap all without migrating any of the things I use in my browser. I was done with Ubuntu at that point. Fuck forced snaps. I control my computer. Canonical can go suck an egg. I’m much happier on Fedora KDE. Bazzite works great on my HTPC.

I installed Read You for my android client. I don’t have the fancy gesture set up though.

Got a love ‘watch tail’

Oh dude. The next drop. DIY it. It’s easier than you think. Even the cheap keystone punch tools will get the job done.

If that doesn’t work, Shift + Insert.

IMO, the Windows Subsystems is kind of cool. WSL 1 used it too.

I had to put down the controller and just sob for a while. It was such a moving experience.

What’s he going to do? Drop commits? /s

The backlog is fantastic! Great explanations and examples of manufacturing and design choices.

So many come out of school with Matlab experience. I get them started with python. They brush me off. Then the license server goes down. Welcome to open source grasshopper! I should make a meme about this and put on my door…

I have to take a breath whenever I find an F77 file. Prepare for a lack of objects!

I put Bazzite on an Intel n100 box I’m using as an HTPC. Super easy install and it was ready to go and working just fine very quickly. Jellyfin works really well! It really is quite incredible how far things have come since my first install of Ubuntu 14.04. Atomic could really make some headway on making Linux easy for a typical user. Wine has come a LOOOONG way help keep compatibility too.

Way better than my Ubuntu desktop. The only thing hold me back on putting an atomic distro on my desktop is not familiar with how things like Python venvs would work for development. That and I use a global hotkey program for Team speak since they haven’t updated to handle Wayland global keys.

The position thing is the fault of the app developer. I don’t have that issue with Podcast Republic.

I think that is just wildly amazing that printer drivers in Linux so often just work. I plugged in a wireless printer the other day and the hardest part was connecting it to the network. Once that was done BOOM Ubuntu found it and I could print. Those driver maintainers are doing a great job!

I am annoyed by the weird UX differences between Kodi and Jellyfin. I really want this to be a thing. I’ve got an N100 box running libreelec right now. I really want Bigscreen to work on x86. Just need to have patience.

Woah there! This is GNOME. You don’t get choices.
