Author admitted he did nothing worthwhile that justified a full fledged workstation and adopted a tablet with keyboard.

As a Mac user I was pleasantly surprised when I switched to a arch Linux based distribution.

Still using m-disc for family photo albums and having them in the bug out bag in case something goes wrong. Inexpensive and light. Such a shame the disk format is dying.

This is insane, how long will it take them to overreach and abuse their power for political gain?

Just wondering why anyone would go through the hassle of installing home assistant on Linux when the fantastic hassOS exists which will run perfectly virtualized.

I could not agree more, but you put it up much more eloquent than I did.

I miss VCR rentals, my cassette player and the magic of my first XT computer with MFM disks. I miss the apple //c and hopping online just to check for some information. I miss the craftsmanship of all those self made websites where you kept a list of URL’s. I miss the points where people put stuff on the internet just to share and what they made and were proud of it. I miss the trips with friends to the arcade hall where we would take turns on operation wolf. E-Mailing the friend you made during the holidays and be able to send pictures was some kind of magic.

I truely hate what the internet has become. A centralized corporate greed machine that exploits people and squeezes them for maximum profits. People are more interested in likes and retweets than in genuine contact.

I am getting old… grumpy… bitter because the thing I loved was taken from me.

I’m happy in spend my youth during the 90s so none of the stupid things I did is on the internet or on digital photography. All those happy silly things are tucked away on analog print somewhere only I can access it.

Being a Xennial is truely a blessing and I regret for kids not to have that anymore.

The problem with Java is not Java. It is Oracle and no amount of new features is going to fix that.

I still regret the fact I gave my Apple //c away some 30 years ago. I am dying to try this.
