Dear Americans, please remember to get out and vote in the mid-term elections to prevent the fascist so-called republicans from turning democracy into a joke.

USB is like the human family tree... Type B was homo-erectus, Micro-USB was that one we only have a pinky bone for despite it's proliferation, Type A is us the homo-sapiens, and Type C is the X-Men

what the actual fuck did I just read?

Do you ever just stop what your doing... look around confused... and think to yourself... "Something is very wrong here."

So my interest in radio has been reignighted (amateur, CB, MURS, GMRS, etc) recently. I like the idea of having options as backup communications in case of emergencies and such. I'm going to get my GMRS licence (yay no test required) as soon as they actually drop the cost to $35 as promised lol.

Eventually I'm going to get all 3 levels of Amateur licence as well, but in the mean time, I want something my entire family can use. But I'm also interested in the tech side of things. Like, apparently the ISS is doing an event right now sending images down to earth using amateur radio tech, or how you can program some of these radios to be scanners too by connecting them to a freaking computer. I wonder if they could be interfaced to work kinda like an SDR?

Been obsessing over some of these ideas for the last few weeks because my brain is always churning out possible situations and coming up with solutions to to situations.

Terminal Emulator Face Off!

If you could only pick one of these terminals to use as your daily driver, which would you pick? Feel free to comment too as I'm having trouble deciding.

Ready... GO!

I got the Elder Scrolls Online running on my linux laptop... no more need to boot into windows each day to play. <3

So, my laptop died the first week of February. I finally was able to get a new one this week! I've been losing my mind but I can finally write and process photos again.

However, I am finally transitioning away from windows 10 as my primary operating system. I got a little m.2 enclosure for my old SSD and can boot windows from it over USB-C when I have the itch to game or need to use it as a backup.

But, the main software I use, Microsoft Word and Adobe Lightroom, I already have linux alternatives for 😊

I was hoping to get to use Qubes OS as my new primary OS, but it doesn't like my Intel WiFi 6 chip ☹️ so I will probably have to go back to old faithful, Debian. Or maybe I can manage to get FreeBSD to play nice with my WiFi, but I don't have much hope of that either.

If anyone has gotten Qubes OS 4.1 alpha to play nice with Intel WiFi 6 200AX, please let me know. I've tried everything I can find online but will probably have to wait until 4.1 is out of alpha and properly released.

Loving the new laptop tho. 2TB nvme SSD, 64GB RAM, Ryzen 7 4800H, perfect for all the VMs I want to run in Qubes, and the on chip graphics are actually enough for me to game at even slightly better performance than my previous discreet GPU that was an evil nvidia GTX 965M.

I always new about "top" since I first tried Linux in the late 90s. Now that I am getting more into it and want to switch to *nix full time, I'm learning more. Recently I learned about htop. I thought that was interesting. Then today I learned about bpytop. That one was a bit trickier to get. Turns out it's a python version of something called bash top. It's pretty interesting tho. Certainly a nice direction for CLI to move towards.
