The more that it’s surrounding us, the more that it destroys.

Turn up the signal.

Wipe out the noise.

I haven't ever maintained a blog, but since Linux Journal folded and I no longer work at Purism, I miss having an outlet for longer-form thoughts.

Over the last five years or so, I've observed a Renaissance in innovation on the Linux desktop that hearkens back to the Golden Era of the desktop from the mid-1990s into the aughts.

In this (pretty long, likely controversial) post, I talk through the Golden Era, Dark Ages, Renaissance, and what's next.

Linux Desktop Renaissance

Lucifer, go to sea
Be a hip cat, be a ship's cat
Somewhere, anywhere!
That cat's something I can't explain!

Spanish guitar, and introducing, acoustic guitar! #lotd
"And another one gone, and another one gone..." #LOTD
"And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone". #LOTD
"Do you get the gist of the song now?" #lotd

"Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could?
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul"
