CW: Rant or something like that; on the state of Linux desktop, if nothing else, ostensibly. However you or anyone else use a computer/phone/whatever-else is none of my business and therefore not a hill I would enjoy dying on. If you would like to disagree, you sure can, and that's fine and we're both wrong anyway.
@plutarch I don't understand every term in this rant of yours, but I think I understand enough to recognize why fundamentally we agree on this concept & why so much feels so wrong.
If anything close to sense & safety gets done on my home repair/remodeling effort set, within another 18 months, beyond full recognition of the terms I don't now, I'll have a #Linux or other #OpenSource operating system or systems on a functional desktop computer or 2 in my home, they likely staying in 1 or 2 nooks of my house. On them will be the simplest setups I can find because I too believe computers are tools not lifestyle foci nevermind centers of life.
One of the best features in my old house is the plaster walls, which make wifi signals travel like smoke in a house that's a chimney.... so beyond my directly having the "smart home " feature set removed from their automatic inclusion in the upgrades & rewiring of the house, I enjoy the fact that internet & in turn computer access in my home exists but is & will remain contained.

Does anyone know if there exists such a thing as a recessed USB receptacle that can fit in a (US) 1 gang electrical box, that would allow me to flush-mount a USB-powered device, so that the cord would just be hidden in back going into the receptacle? The application is that there’s already a box with 110V power to it, where I want to do this. #DIY #HomeImprovement #LazyWeb #LazyMastodon

Yesterday our dishwasher was dead.
Today our dishwasher was fixed.
Later today our dishwasher was dead again.
Still later today our dishwasher was fixed again. It’s actually running as I type this.
I think that’s enough dishwasher shenanigans. It’s not dead, but it’s dead to me. We went shopping for a new one tonight. I’ll keep you posted on the progress because I can tell by the look on all of your faces that you cannot wait to hear how this turns out.
More info coming as it develops.
Stay tuned.

The IKEA kitchen deliveries are happening on Monday and Tuesday. A few boxes on Monday and almost 200 on Tuesday. The plumber is coming to disconnect everything on Monday. Demolition of the current kitchen is Friday and installation of the new kitchen is Saturday. They are telling us they only need one day to install but that seems crazy to me. The plumbing hookups, electrical work, and the addition of the backsplash all happen at some point after the install. When? We don’t know yet.
Both of my step kids are going on trips over spring break. They are coming home the week after the kitchen install. I have to take a day off to drive them both to the airport. We have Harry’s flight information already but not Bellana’s. Not yet at least. The following week we’ll pick them back up at the airport but as of now it doesn’t look like I’ll need to take time off from work for that.
I also have five days to finish the RPM Challenge. I have three songs finished, six ready to mix, six ready for lead guitars, and five waiting for vocals. Two of those five have lyrics and a melody written. I did those earlier today. I am hoping to get to the other three before I sleep tonight so I can get them all recorded tomorrow morning. If I can’t get through it all tomorrow I’ll have to finish up before work on Monday. Then I just have a ton of lead guitars to record and multiple tons of mixing to do. I can get to it all, but it’s going to be tough. I have some late nights and early mornings in my near future.
There are so many things to do in the coming weeks. So very, very many things. It’s going to be pretty crazy around these parts. I’ll post lots of pictures as things progress.
