When the #Wireshark wiki uses the plucky little CSS framework you created.
The kids were in holiday club yesterday and the sun was shining, so we managed to both get out on the bike for the first time in, like, 9 years?
Youngest: Muuuuuuum what's that orange man doing? (pic for reference)
Wife: There's no such thing as an "orange man." Do you mean the man in the orange trousers?
Oldest: DONALD TRUMP IS ORANGE!!

This is why you shouldn't put stickers on your laptop...

Why I Decided on the Framework 13 for My Next Laptop
I've mentioned the Framework 13 a few times recently, and I ended up buying one. But a few people have messaged me wanting to know why I chose it. So, here's why...
I decided to cancel my pre-order of the new @frameworkcomputer Ryzen 9 AI and instead went with the existing Ryzen 7 chip.
I'll get my new laptop a hell of a lot sooner, and according to Geekbench, it's still a BIG step up over what I have now.
Just need to decide what OS I'm gonna run now, #Linux or #Windows 🤔.
I have unsubscribed from the TL;DR newsletter today after enjoying it for many years.
Why? Because it's 90% AI bullshit and it's boring.
Blogging Expectations
Some thoughts about what Joel expects out of blogging regularly, or having a website at all.
When your dogs follow you into the toilet and instantly regret it. 😂
In preparation for my new Framework laptop, I've been playing around with Fedora 41 on an old laptop. For the most part it works really well, but theming doesn't. I have no idea, but no Gnome Shell themes will work and the default one is horrible - everything is WAY too big on the default theme.
😬
YouTube Shorts Are Like Crack
Back in February I decided to admit defeat in the battle against YouTube ads, and I signed up for Premium. Since then, I've become utterly addicted to shorts. It's very, very sad.
So who's up for a global recession then?
Anyone?
No?
Thinking about my next laptop and #Apple has been giving me the ick lately with some of what they're doing.
Anyway, politics of it all aside, I'm thinking about a #Framework 13. Very expensive, but will hopefully last a lot longer.
Anyone have one? What do you think of it?
Roadkill
Another great book from Dennnis E. Taylor. This time about an alien that's killed in a road traffic accident.
I heard this great saying today...
"Intelligence is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing to not put it in a fruit salad."
My wife recently got a rooster to help look after her flock, and it's a fucking beast!
For reference, the one behind is a fully grown, normal size hen.
I swear it's a goose in disguise! 🪿
Youngest: Daaaaaaaaad, how was the earth made?
Me: [explains the Big Bang theory]
Him: So it made EVERYTHING??
Me: Yup
Him: Even that rock?
Me: Everything
Him: Even that tree?
Me: Everything
Him: Even those ponies?
Me: Everything
Him: Even my socks?
Me: EVERYTHING!
Him: Even the farts that come out my bum?
Me: 🤦🏼♂️
Walked up to my youngest, put my wrist on his head and said.
"Don't move, you're under a wrist."
I am fucking hilarious. 😂😂
