A new #Commodore64 game by John Henderson. I am very excited to see the release of this game so I can play it on my #C64Maxi

With a new year comes changes in my computer hardware. The 13 year old #Dell Latitude D630 has been retired from active service in favor of a new machine. 13 years is a good long time, right?

A #Christmastime blathering. I know it's been a rough year for everyone. Regardless, I will still find some positives that have come from the year and build on those for the next year.

This #HP Laptop runs so amazingly well with @opensuse. In fact, I didn't know HP made such nice machines. I do think they should offer openSUSE by default.

In an effort to get caught up on the latest in #terminal system monitoring tool hotness, I have been using with #Bpytop on @openSUSE and in a word, "wow". What an incredible interface that is incredibly accessible. My new "must have" app on #Linux

I realize I am late to the party but I am very much enjoying #Bashtop on @opensuse . This is fantastic #Terminal system monitoring tool for #Linux that should be given try, if nothing more than to marvel at the elegance of the presentation.

Not really computer or tech related but I do spend some time outside of my cubicle building things and one such tool that helps me along that I am rather smitten is the #DeWalt 20v Max Cordless Compact Router. Very well made and incredibly convenient.

Since I am a fan of consoles, modern, vintage and near vintage, I designed & constructed a "Gaming Rack" to commit a neatness in my home. Designed on @opensuse Tumbleweed with Autodesk #Fusion360, I made my having these things more manageable. #Linux

#Docker #Kubernetes & container technologies on Z Systems plus additional emulations with #IBM s390 is fully explained in this presentation based on a thesis. Find out about compatibility, configuration & more in this @opensuse + @libreoffice Conference talk. https://youtu.be/OMrXonKsfbE?t=17
There has been all kinds of chatter about the @Raspberry_Pi 400. Though I haven't physically touched one, I am not without my thoughts, or rather, blathering on this. Now, if only I could buy one... #Linux #RaspberryPi400 #RetroArch #openSUSE

I have used #ventoy as my go-to tool of choice for installing various distributions of #Linux. It made installing another OS that could not be written to a USB drive possible. This is especially important for having #openSUSE ready to install too.

I am blown away that @microsoft has made #Linux a "first-class citizen" with the Edge Browser. Running it on @openSUSE is surprisingly delightful. I am very impressed and grateful that Microsoft is making this kind of effort. #webbrowser

I am of the belief that FISH should have a name change from "Friendly Interactive SHell" to being the "Fun Interactive SHell". Although I do enjoy the terminal, this makes it much more fun. @openSUSE #Linux

An old and not very funny joke, the Rickroll, is available in pixelated form in the #Terminal on #Linux. Since I got a chuckle, I thought I would share. #GitHub
