I voted LibDem because Labour are nowhere to be seen where I live. ABC, init.

I wish him a lifetime of always being two good wipes away from clean.

I've recently gone through a pile of 'dead' ThinkPads T410 at work, cleaning them up, harvesting usable parts and installing Kubuntu on them so people on the shop floor who just need access to online forms can use them.

I've been genuinely surprised at the utility they can still offer, despite being fairly low spec dual core i5 machines from 2010. Sure, no one's gaming on them, but that's not the point. They're still useful.

As a relatively new Linux user, I picked KDE Neon for my work PC as I figured it made sense to have direct access to up-to-date KDE software. So I'm kind of disconcerted at reading that Neon is considered by KDE to be at the end of its road.

Given that I just did a regular installation, without putting Home on a separate partition or anything like that, what's the most efficient way of backing everything up and moving across to a distro that's more actively maintained?

Its almost always Foot Tapper by The Shadows. Has been for years. In fairness, it's a bop.

You were the only listener on Spotify because I yoinked it using yt-dlp so I could listen without needing to be online.

I'm forever looking for a game that'll affect me emotionally as much as Arthur's last ride in RDR2. I still can't hear that Daniel Lanois track without feeling all of the feelings, and it's been a good few years since I played it.

Absolutely remarkable experience.

Like it or not, the most certain way to affect any kind of societal change (if that's your goal), is to be rich.

That app is basically magic, as far as I'm concerned.
