Rebooted into Windows so devices could be reliable during morning meetings, so naturally the sound crapped out thirty seconds into the first meeting.

Back in Linux, where sound works.

never thought i would see the day

@rafial I was beginning to doubt after the last few rounds with Pop OS.

Latest iteration of the Linux partition is EndeavourOS + Qtile.

Other than needing to fine-tune volume controls (label says “up 3%” but I just scared the cats out of the room) and the normal “it’s fine I guess” of Steam+Linux, things are remarkably sturdy!

Spent the lunch break mixing up #Taskwarrior and #Nushell and they go together like peanut butter and hamburger.

it’s good you should try it if you like pb & h on their own

And yeah this code needs to be in a blog post. After work maybe.

terminal split view: one shows output of taskwarrior command with Nushell table from export; other shows nushell code and taskwarrior settings

Just learning to accept a fact. It don’t matter how many times you tell them a wiki page is a shared resource that they should tend and edit, if your name is on it then as far as the world’s concerned it’s your page.

Ownership taints everything.

@controlfreak @rafial Early releases had a lot of promise. Unfortunately they lost a lot of time working on a heavily tweaked Gnome desktop when if there’s one thing the Gnome core team seems to hate it’s desktop tweakers.

I can’t show this one because it’s work stuff but hot dang I love being able to just explore and examine a CSV file directly in #Nushell. It’s like having an in-terminal notebook environment.

Signed up for #700x over on the EdX site so I could learn biology and also how to do LaTeX in Logseq.

Logseq initial class notes page with course outline and down at the bottom a line about β-galactosidase and β-globin
