Not worth my time anymore. Really wanted to get headless booting working with Fedora. I just ordered a minihdmi to hdmi cable to find out why this raspberry pi isn't booting except with an older Ubuntu sd card.

My Raspberry Pi is really fustrating me. I was hoping to set up an external ssd by USB. It continues to refuse to boot any distro headless except for Ubuntu. Updating the firmware right now so I hope it will work better.
uhm, did you know that waypipe with ssh is fast enough to use blender remotely over wi-fi? what? this works much better/faster than x11 forwarding ever did

People ask me why I use GitLab. I see things like this: "GitHub Is Going To Start Charging You For Using Your Own Hardware".

This is why I use GitLab. This is why people self host.

#SFC lawyers argue correctly that the Judge got it right in the tentative ruling: the contract we accepted when we exercised the new offer when #Vizio updated their offer during the case.

#Vizio's lawyer dubiously claims that because we said the offer was invalid when the case *started* means we can never test the offer for source later when they fixed it during the case.

Effectively, Vizio is effectively saying if you're in a #GPL lawsuit, you lose your right to even ask for source at all!!!

I do not remember my experience on Mac being this bad, but my last real experience was Snow Leopard on my iMac before half the screen went out.

Last Week on My Mac: Losing confidence

What was the key to successfully learning to drive, ride a bike, or speak a foreign language? Confidence, and it’s every bit as important in computing, and in macOS.
