Good riddance 2025!
Ok, good riddance, 2025! This year was one of the worst so far .. aside of fascist / racist mass hallucinations and insane financial marketing BS like GenAI.
It's been like my worst year. First half was just about staying somehow afloat with the living situation, next on, full on troubles with work, getting the flat prepared for a new flat mate .. future perspective looking not so rosy with
Portable Workstation: S400 v2 “FU Edition” – Image Dump
A quick image dump for my finished portable workstation in the S400 v2 (10.8L) case.

The funny thing in #SmallFormFactor #sffpc builds is: If you're saying you've "upgraded", you actually have downgraded - but in size only.

i18n changes to the site
So I finally decided to disable Bogo, which has been a shoddy solution from the very start. But now its a shoddy solution only supporting the other shoddy, WP-6-only solution, ie. Gutenborg. Tried a few workarounds, but in the end, its wasted time and efforts to get this shoddy piece really working.
Hence I'm probablly going the dirty'n'hard way, as in: i
