OneDrive mirroring

Stop telling me that I am out of storage, I did not ask you to put my files there.

Nvidia Linux drivers

A 2 month old driver from a desktop 3070 failed to detect a laptop 3050, and I had to chroot to remove the offending driver, buuuut

Rescue USB

So it turns out the default Tumbleweed ISO is NOT a live image. Recue didn't work nor did usb boot until I realised. Burned LMDE onto the usb key, and I was able to get back up and running relatively quickly.

x86 Zionist 64

Bullshit architecture duopoly invented by the extremely crass. My next computer will either be ARM or RISC-V and I'm going to make sure my current computer lasts as long as possible before then.

OpenWRT / network stuff.

Trying to set up OpenWRT on my router but it's a dual partition so I have to figure out how to switch to the other partition. Gave up for now but yeah network stuff is pain. I got recursive DNS set up on my router though using my old ThinkPad x220. I blocked all the pRon, gambling and adware for my family.

Wayland / New loonix stuff

I'm sticking to X11 for now until POP! OS 24.04 releases. I'm just sticking with POP OS for the forseeable future as university is starting and I can't afford my irresistible urge to distro-hop and nerd out uncontrollably.
