    Yes. Well enough to play Counter Strike: Global Offensive. Beware, as soon as I switched to FreeBSD on the desktop my trust factor tanked. https://www.freshports.org/games/linux-st…

    FWIW during my PPL pulling back during (un?)expected situations instinctually was very much discouraged. edit: this parent comments makes more sense if instead the author meant pus…

    Another blank keycapper chiming in. Colemak is working great on my Helix! QMK is a wonderful piece of software.

    The go:embed directive and embed.FS interface are great, as expected. If you're developing an AGPL or similarily licensed application it's incredibly easy to distribute source code…

    I have a container I stick in Syncthing that I do 100% of my development within across all my machines. One day I decided to switch to podman on a whim and forgot I made the switch…

    For fans of AGPL I suggest checking out EUPL. Half the length of AGPL. Changing/removing portions of the license is allowed. More info: you may have seen this on Hacker News recent…

    To offer another perspective... I've migrated services to/from Now v2 (never used v1). While recently moving a Go service off (to a regular server) all that was changed was some ba…

    Yes. I would prefer the only JavaScript VM on my computer to be the browser's. Aside: I wouldn't sell what I do as JavaScript development, though.

    If you look closely at the Go code you'll see it was once C code generated by some parser generater (which I assume was Bison). Believe it was Russ Cox that wrote a program that tr…

    If you edit your text in a terminal and use a light weight browser: Asus' E203MA has been working well for me. The CPU is slow. There's not much RAM. I wouldn't run Gnome on it. XF…

    I have a git repo at ~. .gitignore includes * with some exceptions, ~/.config/qutebrowser being one of the exceptions. Edit: I mostly ignore mobile but I created https://smscp.xyz/…

    Picked up an Asus E203MA last month. I treat the eMMC just like I would any SSD/HDD and slap Arch on it all the same. Any specifics you care to know? I wouldn’t expect the heavier …

    Adjacently, release software through the OSs you target. Stores, pkg managers, whatever.

    Curious what you miss? I recently started self hosting a Gitlab instance and switched from Lastpass to pass. Wouldn't of done it without the `passforios` foss app. Maybe I wasn't u…

    Perfect timing. Started mucking around with the Go compiler recently to implement my own error handling. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D_ojiEqUYAAhmrH.png edit: s/%s/%d/ but you get …
