I'm reading Universal Harvester by John Darnielle. I think I like it, but how much probably depends on how the writer is able to bring it all together in the end. I do like the somewhat unconventional structure though, and the book is very atmospheric. It feels like it's more focused on painting pictures of a time and place than strictly telling a story, or something, I'm not good at describing it.

Yes, I'm just a soul whose intentions are good. Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood!

Always check the package list when updating. Tumbleweed for some reason occasionally wants to install Patterns even if they were not included to begin with. I've taken to updating with the command:

sudo zypper dup --no-recommends

to avoid installing packages/patterns I'm trying to avoid. You could probably also mask some packages so they are never installed, but I haven't looked in to that.

Hope that helps.

I hate that Tales of Maj'Eyal is my favorite Open Source game. I hate that a new expansion is coming out soon and I will instantly buy it and play it and hate myself. Check it out!

OpenTTD and Widelands are also pretty cool.

Windows is a nightmare.

Alan Turing was instrumental in breaking the German Enigma code for the allies.

Oof. The filesystem was great though.

That is amazing. Great job!

Nice! I also compiled the kernel multiple times when I used Gentoo back in mid 00's. It may not be a big deal as such, but I feel kind of good being able to say I've done it.

Next challenge: write your own kernel.

Debian with LXQt. Good luck.
