So I've had a play with Fedora SilverBlue in a VM, and I like the concept. I downloaded the iso and burnt it to the Fedora USB I got from #fosdem; however, my X270 refuses to boot the USB; a spare DELL Laptop I have lying around did show me GRUB and looked like it was booting the "Try" option, but the screen just stayed black. This is 2023, not 2003, people! Get a grip for the love of The Pond Gods.

Here's a thought. All these tanks that are being sent to Ukraine, are they really of much use or will they actually turn out to be a nightmare? They're all different, have different systems and, for all I know, different ammunition.


Any predictions of when ChatGPT will become self-aware?


Just bought this from Amazon for £35 to play some cassettes I have from forty-five to fifty years ago! 🤣


Thank The Pond Gods for that. You can't get the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W for the minute, so that means it's pointless buying any of the Argon Pod modules.


A few years ago, on Google search results, you'd get two, maybe three "Paid For" results.

These days there's half a page of "Paid For" results.
Next time someone says: "Can I do your SEO? We'll get you first rankings!" ask them: "Are you paying Google for Ad placement then?" you can't get 1st place for free anymore.


Isn't EVERYONE rated as "Excellent" on Trustpilot? #LeSigh


Bought a copy of Private Eye, which I would read more regularly if it weren't so sparse in its stories about Labour.

Just been in the spare room and literally ripped the Epson Expression Home XP-2200 Printer off the shelf and took it downstairs, and threw it by the bins. It's only printed once and now won't print the missuses return (pdf) label so guess whose fault that is? Piece of shit.


RIP Terry Hall
Much too much; you were much too young.

Tempted to get a second #ArgonEon I have to say I prefer my current Eon to my QNAP TS-251, which is now switched off because the noise of it constantly accessing the drives was doing my head in. I need a 2nd NAS to back up the 1st NAS

The missus went out last night, so me and Charlie watched The Italian Job (The proper version) on the TV and thoroughly enjoyed it. "You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!"


Just finished listening to:
Giuliani: The Rise and Tragic Fall of America's Mayor

How many heroes have turned out to be villains in reality?


I like the tee shirt but I'm not brave enough to wear it.

TBH, I've had this instance for a while but under the username of shrednivashtar I had to delve into the MySQL DB to delete dick_turpin because I'd mucked up the registration a while back and it wouldn't let me re-register. I fixed it yesterday so now dick_turpin has an account on here. The point is, none of these loonie lefties can report me (here) as the idiot did on .org.uk this has always been a backup account anyway.

I will always stay on @Sem Schilder :t_blink:'s server. He and I have "History" now. #hugs
