We're moving our books and bookshelves. I'm so glad to be a cataloger who doesn't keep their personal collection in much order.
@mark Wow! That's cool.
@mark Crouton? I just learned you can sometimes pave over ChromeOS, too.
@mark I've spent more for less.
@mark What is the $5.50 for?
I just went for online training and the platform, WebEx training, doesn't support Linux, which shocked me. I haven't run into that issue in years. So long ago that I didn't even bother to test access before the webinar.
@amcooper Here too! Haven't seen them myself yet but they're definitely around
Omg. NFL week 1: Brian Daboll is a great dancer.
@mpmilestogo Welcome home!
@mark I try to wait for Bandcamp Fridays so it feels more like a donation than buying music....
@mark I love that we get a reboot every fall. It's scary and energizing

Another one giving up on self hosting email.
I also have my 'fun' hosting it, but for me it still works reasonably well. Carlos, who wrote the article, is apparently hosting for a forum or such, and it became unbearable.

Amazing move for me. I'm so glad I did it. Handling Ubuntu like a champ!

So, for whatever reason, gpg-suite on my personal Mac is giving me hell this morning (crashes when I open the key manager). I give up. Just removed it and replaced it with gnupg and pinentry-mac. No more signing emails (not that anyone will notice)
@jtr very cool! I didn't know you could pave over Chrome. And if I ever make a distro, I'm calling it GolemOS!
@jtr I looked into that but I wasn't sure to what extent I could wipe ChromeOS versus just working around it with Crouton.
I was thinking about getting a netbook since my Thinkpad is a bit heavy to carry. But they don't make many netbooks, and even fewer that aren't Chromebooks. I landed on a used X260. Psyched to get it.
