I also tackled restoring a chair that had a thick layer of paint. The seat was split, so I repaired it with domino joiners. Removing the paint was a real struggle: I started by scraping, then disassembled the parts, which was difficult because the old glue joints wouldn’t come apart cleanly. The turned, symmetrical pieces I was able to refinish on the lathe, but for the rest I spent hours sanding the carved curves. It turned out to be pine underneath, so it wasn’t worth the effort.

setup-alpine script should let you choose between dropbear and openssh

I had a great experience with beekeeb shipping to France. They offer many pre-soldered well-known open-source split keyboards at approximately half the price of ZSA products.

Fish is great out of the box!

Check out the Fish for Bash users guide since it explains the main differences.

The few issues I’ve seen for daily use are that export does not work and you need to use set -x VAR value instead, $PS1 is not recognized because Fish uses its own prompt system, and wildcards work a bit differently…

Since “winter break”, it seems that most versions are supported.

I have a Kindle, and it’s relatively inexpensive (I assume the business model focuses on selling eBooks rather than the reading device itself). I never turn on the Wi-Fi or sign in; I use it offline by uploading books through USB with Calibre. I’ve read that it can be jailbroken, but it has met all my needs so far. Would this option work for you?

I also recommand Task.org app to sync tasks with CalDAV and I use raw Markdown files with WebDAV, both using the DAVx5 app for synchronization. For editing Markdown, I prefer minimalist apps that suit my needs. Right now, I find SimpleMarkdown (with disabled telemetry) to be the best choice.

Boxwood is dense with extremely fine grain

I will probably choose this option 😉

Some distros and technologies can be more complex.

For Home Assistant, consider using Yunohost. It doesn’t require Docker skills. You can find step-by-step guides on their website.

I guess gaming with Linux has always been tricky, you can check ProtonDB to see which games are easily compatible with Linux.
