So after fighting with various versions of xorg and wayland on a couple of headless machines (graphics card, but no monitor attached), I finally gave in and bought a couple of those fake monitor plugs (I bought one for DP and one for HDMI).

I had the idea to make a bot that bought/sold stock and/or crypto but it seems like all of the exchanges either 1) do not allow multiple trades in a day; and 2) do not allow fractional purchases (i.e. you have to buy a whole bitcoin or a whole stock).

We bought a Cricut Maker 3. This has to be the coolest thing I've bought for projects since I bought a 3D printer!

I can now play Star Trek...

I've been thinking about ordering Starlink internet from SpaceX. Not to use as my main internet, but to use when camping, away from home, and as a backup when Comcast goes out (which it likes to do from time to time.) Unfortunately when I go to...

So several days ago I found my netbook no longer had a working keyboard or touch pad. Previously it had issues with the shift keys (both of them) randomly stop working. I did a little web searching and found that it was a known issue with this model (a cheapo Dell 2-in-1) caused by a poor design that results in the membrane connecting the keyboard...
