A new day. A new chance to succeed.
A chop wood, carry water day.
A day to tend to my own knitting, as Grandmother used to say.
Now that I'm older than she was at the time, I see the wisdom in her words. I'm a slow learner.
It took me a long time to realize I can change the world every day, but only the small part of it I can reach.
The failure is in not trying because I can't reach it all.
I hope you can tend to your own knitting #today

Last week I learned that sometimes a Linux bootloader (*cough* GRUB) wonāt properly install because you have the ghosts of 6 or 7 distros cluttering your EFI boot list. So you have to leave chroot or make your way back to a console, as applicable, then prune the heck out of things with efibootmgr. After which you re-chroot or resume the install and everything is beautiful.
This is something someone with more civic pride in Linuxlandia might properly blog about. Iām just tired.
Things that I wonāt use, even to mock or joke about it:
* Generative AI
* Incel slang
* MAGA or nazi imagery
I think this is a reasonable boundary.
