I am a life long nerd who seems to be perpetually chasing the next bright shiny thing :) I will always be puttering with technology whether I’m paid for it or not :)

I love spending time with my wife and our rescue pup, playing with old computers, reading, and playing video games.

  • So it’s interesting reading all the folks talking about permacomputing and the like.

    And I think there’s merit to keeping those architectures around.

    But let’s turn this on its head, shall we? Where do we get the people who still have that hardware who are willing to actively take part in Linux kernel development?

    Like, to become facile enough with the process, tools and codebase to be able to bear the load of writing new security patches as vulnerabilities are found?

    It’s a hard problem. The number of people actively contributing to Linux is large in aggregate but VANISHINGLY small when it comes to any particular area of interest.















  • Hi!

    kickstart.nvim maintainer here, please don’t follow the advice given in the video to just dump init.lua into place.

    Please follow the instructions in the README for the repo and git clone it into your $XDG_CONFIG_HOME instead.

    If you just copy pasta init.lua things will break. This is a result of converting Kickstart to lazy.nvim
