It's Friday my little computer friends. We made it!

@checkervest lol you are a hoot ❤️

Twitter circles surely a formal recognition it's a toxic shitpile

Lets see what Dell/EMC have for me this week

I was getting lunch at our noodle counter and the girl ahead of me was stumbling to express herself, so she started speaking in what I think was Chinese, and in about 10 seconds the whole counter staff were chatting away. I'd never witnessed this before (maybe it's discouraged?) but I thought it was very cool in the same way being in an airport has so many sounds of far away places.

They have a credit on the excellent Phoenix Point, but I do not have much hope for thus project.

I note that as of 22.04 Ubuntu only offers Firefox as a Snap, they're not packaging it in the standard repo anymore. Not sure how I feel about that.

@MmeLibertine How did it go?

I had one of those weird running late dreams but it was unlike all the others, I had to make an interview for a Fashion magazine in London and kept getting lost and delayed. It was also raining. So strange.

I think the thing I enjoyed the most about Better Call Saul was how it avoided the trap of prequels; It did not couple itself too tightly to breaking bad and became compelling in its own characters and story. The finale was great and touched on the things that really mattered to the story, namely Jimmy and Kim.

The MMC device clocks in at roughly the same throughput as a mechanical spinner; fine really. I'll probably do the NVME upgrade, it's easy enough.

I also love the fact the power adapter isn't the size of a car

Manjaro is weird though. Manjaro is to Arch what Ubuntu is to Debian. I do like the KDE touches, it looks very good.

Treated myself to a Pinebook Pro. Strange to think it was in Hong Kong just a week ago, and now here it is on my lap. It's very nice. I'm pleasantly surprised.
