"Arabian wind; The needle's eye is thin; The ships of State sail on mirage and drown in sand; Down in No-Mans Land, where Allah does command; What good is spilling blood? It will not grow a thing" #LOTD

If it keeps on rainin’, levee’s gonna break. #lotd

(not really -- it's been super dry here lately. But our Scout troops camp this weekend, so I expect a lot of rain. Fortunately, they're nowhere near a levee. And I'm not with them. :))

🎶 Been dazed and confused for so long it's not true... #lotd
All around me are familiar faces
Worn-out places, worn-out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
#lotd

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

“Kid.”
#lotd
Lucifer, go to sea
Be a hip cat, be a ship's cat
Somewhere, anywhere!
That cat's something I can't explain!
