She’s a tabby so she rolls and swims on the carpet all the time. She also does flip tricks when killing her innocent toys for the nth time.

Could be an alternative security system, recording a 3D point cloud using 2 or more of them setup in opposing sides of a room so it’s constantly recording a 3D model of what’s happening in a space.

As an engineer, I’m not looking forward to the entire generation(s?) of vibe coders who couldn’t explain what a byte is and the ways one might be stored on a system.

Unfortunately, if you message anyone using windows, your message content can now be swept up on their machine even if you use a secure message system, provided that secure system ends up displaying in plain text for the end user.

Once you get a little more comfortable with Linux, there’s some cool things you can do, such as convert an old laptop into a 100% pure writing-only device using a couple pieces of software, a simple startup script, and a barebones Debian installation. One such project has been created to help automate that process: tinkerwriterdeck What’s cool about something like this is that it doesn’t have a typical desktop experience, it’s exclusively used for writing and nothing else. Use a USB drive to save / load files, and it becomes a modern typewriter appliance with no internet to distract.

I still think I’ll stick with nala as my apt front-end but hopefully this will be a more robust backend.
