  Over the weekend I was testing out Linux support for tablets. I tested using an old Microsoft Surface Book 2 we have at home. It worked pretty well! It's really cool to see a tablet with a full OS. KDE Plasma (via Fedora) had much better tablet support than Cosmic (via Pop OS)

  I switch my Apple keyboard and trackpad between two computers all the time -- my personal and work computer. Normally I use a cable to re-pair them, that's quick.

  For two years I've been hosting a few apps on Digital Ocean, managed by Yunohost. It was great experience overall! I'm so thankful for the management layer Yunohost provided.

I could probably do this for a client, but I don't have the bandwidth to be a great sysadmin for myself 😅 e.g. "the cobbler's kids have no shoes&amp...

  To push back against AI slop, I’m working on a way to comment that’s clearly anti-AI but also encouraging and supportive. Here’s my best shot so far, I commented this on a LinkedIn post. “I’m interested in the premise of this article. I think there probably are several stages we could define! Unfortunately I found it too difficult to get through— the structure and tone is very robotic, almost as if a computer wrote it 😅 I’d be interested in trying to read it again if you were to write this i...
