A great #Dallas #holiday tradition, our local sport talk radio station does a Holiday music show every Christmas Eve, and it’s always excellent!

My preferred distro is #slackware, but I don’t think it’s the right choice for something that someone else is going to use.

I have an old HP Stream laptop I’m getting ready to try to sell. I just did a fresh install of Windows 10, but it fills all the internal storage. It’s unable to run updates because there’s no available disk space.

So, I’m thinking, maybe I should install Linux on it. That’s what I had on there before. My question is what distribution?

If you were prepping a machine to sell, what would you install on it?

The cornbread needs to be completely dry so that is absorbs all the flavors of the dressing. This cornbread is still moist, so in the oven it goes for 30 minutes, while I start chopping herbs.

The cornbread has been made, and it now cut up. After drying overnight, it will be ready to become Thanksgiving dressing.

I'm about to move my home office to my detached garage, and I'm realizing that I won't be able to hear the front doorbell anymore. Does anyone have any recommendations for a “smart" doorbell that doesn't have terrible privacy issues?

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn’t stop to think if they should.

This hits hard:

“So it's really hard to watch this 1995 scifi try to depict the most gruesome poverty and social dysfunction it can imagine, and come up well short of the reality capitalism and its human instruments have created today”

A new publication covering Texas just launched. This introductory editorial gives me hope that they may be on to something.

I’m considering a dream router to replace the A20, a switch for the garage, and an additional access point for the front of the house. Does this make sense?

I’m about to move my office into my detached garage. I have cat6 running (underground) out to the garage, but it’s currently not connected to anything. I will need some new networking equipment. I currently have an Archer A20 serving the house. It’s been fine, but there are some rooms that get poor wifi coverage. #networks

I’m looking at #ubiquiti equipment. Any advice?

@mos_8502, so is there a parts list somewhere? I apologize if I’m missing something obvious. I’ve looked at the “Interactive BOM”, and it looks like a really helpful tool for populating the board, but I’m not seeing part numbers that I could search for on Mouser. #Sentinel65X

My #Sentinel65X board arrived today! I guess I need to order some parts!
