    by

    I’m usually quite a bit behind on updating to the latest operating system because most of the bugs get worked out if I wait a few months. Thus I’m happy to say that I upgraded to Fedora 40 this week on my Framework laptop and have had no real issues. The only thing that was…

    Jason Snell speaking about the reveal of what would become the M series chips in the iPad Pro: But that boast also drew the iPad into direct comparisons with PC laptops, and while its sheer hardware power might have defeated most of those laptops, power isn’t everything.

  • macOS and 27″ 4k Screens

    by

    Matt’s quick tangent on 4k screens is right up my alley.

  • How to Access Synology in Fedoras Terminal

    by

    I had to move a bunch of files over from macOS to my Framework laptop, including a bunch of node stuff that just wasn’t copying via the standard file browser in Fedora 37. This means I turned to rsync which will just work to copy any amount of files, and can resume itself. Where is…

    Opening My Workflows to Break System Lock in and Tracking

    by

    For about 10 years now I’ve been a happy Apple user, though lately I’ve been less happy with at least some of their offerings.
