Did a quiz at work today:
My old machine in need of some #gentoo love.
I don't use it much amyore. And when I do it's mostly for #EliteDangerous on windows

What I didn't show you earlier:

flashrom asked for the use of the -c option with the exact chip type.
I could choose from a list it suggested.

It would probably have been safe to just trial and err trough the list. But what's the fun in having a computer and not take it apart?

Chip comfirmed as MX25L6405D : -)

Now i can run memtest86+ :-D
Leaving it running overnight.

Reflashing my #libreboot #thinkpad firmware to textmode.

Thanks to good documentation it felt remarkably safe to do this.
Hardest part was to verify the signature of the new file with gpg. (I allways forget how, between each time I have to do it)

Did not bother with keeping the original mac address for now.

Not sure which variant actually match my keyboard layout, so went with swedish : -P

Mending my socks 😋
Today we chanced upon some #deer grassing next to the road when driving. They where not shy, so there was time to dig out the camara. #animal #photo
Tree weeks ago I decided I needed a couple of saw horses, and checked Youtube for various designs. I went for the ones Paul Sellers makes in his channel. (I like all he does)
The materials are from an old pallet, and som scrap wood after some remodelling in my house.
It took longer than I had planned, but today, the're finished! 😀
Pretty pleased with them, despite that I somehow managed to make one pair of legs a lot steeper than the rest. I'm calling that a feature, not a bug 😋
