End of an era. 🙁
There are definitely worse places to spend your lunch.
The fact that there is no discover emoji on Micro.blog for technology is very disappointing. 😟 It seems like such an obvious one to include. 💻️
Beautiful moth I just found on the wall. Never seen one this colour before.
I hate getting new prescription glasses - it always takes me a few days of wearing them for my eyes to adjust to being able to see properly again. 🤓
Most of the time it's motorbikes up on my lift, but every now and then weird stuff make their way on there too, like this 60 year old soil tiller...
Traffic is awful round here.
So I recently took my #Motorbike in for it's first service and while there, they gave me this absolute BEAST to take out for a few hours.
Very similar to my bike except it's 200bhp instead of 170bhp. Beautiful machine.
I need to get out with the dogs before the temperature rises from "the surface of mercury" to "the surface oft he sun".
The furballs can't handle the heat.
So I've been running #Ubuntu for the last couple days and I have to say, it's been great. Very stable and no real issues to talk of. Snaps are still a bit shit, but a couple of commands later and I have Flatpak support.
Question - does Ubuntu shit the bed entirely if you remove Snaps all together?
My Thoughts on the Fosstodon Drama
Lots of people have been asking myself and Mike for a statement on the recent drama surrounding Fosstodon. This is **MY** statement.
Um, when did the #Ubuntu image become 6GB???
My First Week With the Framework 13
I've had my Framework 13 for a week now. There have been some challenges along the way, but for the most part, I'm happy with my purchase.
The can is open and there are worms everywhere. 🤦🏼♂️🪱🪱🪱
(buds were free on an offer, I didn't really need them as my Sony ones are fine.)
It was all going so well with #Fedora until I connected my external monitor via USB C. It's absolutely will NOT stay connected. Works perfectly in Windows and MacOS, just plug an play. I'm about done with Linux, I think - I don't have time for this shit.
Continuing with #Fedora and quite enjoying it. There are still some frustrations though:
-
Fingerprint reader doesn't work very well.
-
Auto screen dimming is horrendous - there's no smooth transitions and is very jarring (turned it off).
-
LibreOffice is ugly AF. Replaced with OnlyOffice.
-
I cant set a background on my login screen. It's just grey, which is a bit shit.
All small things though.
The Wild Robot Protects
The 3rd book in The Wild Robot series. My wife said it was rubbish when she read it, but me and the kids enjoyed it.
Initial Thoughts of the Framework 13
I received my shiny new Framework 13 today, so I wanted to share some of my initial thoughts on the device.
Finallyyyyyyyy 🎉🎉
When the #Wireshark wiki uses the plucky little CSS framework you created.
