  • I got a Redhat book with boot CD from my cousin (RMS’s lost twin, a total geek) in 1999, later studied Linux and CLI at university and in 2002 built myself a server running SuSe, but it took me 7 more years to fully transition to Linux on all my machines as I still had a box with XP for gaming until then. Every new windows iteration solidifies my aversion to MS products even further and every new version of the kernel, KDE, Wayland, Proton, etc. makes me love the GNU/Linux ecosystem so much more.

    Could be, there’s a similar remedy to wisdom teeth growing sideways. Apparently the body needs some sort of a signal for direction, so if you chew on a stick (e.g. a pencil) for 10-15 minutes each day, they should reallign themselves.













  • I recently replaced the keyboard in my XPS-13 and in the process, of course, disconnected the button battery. When I tried booting into Mint I was greeted by some weird error, thinking my SSD somehow got scrambled. It didn’t even show up on the list of drives when using a live USB… Little did I know that when the battery disconnected, my BIOS restored to default settings and I had to set the AHCI mode again for the SSD to function properly. 😅
