This one hits hard. #climatechange

codemonkeymike, 2 months ago to macos

Serious question. Are there any #macos users (especially #developers) who are curious about switching to or trying #linux?

I've been toying with the idea of making very specific well done training videos to support that.

But not sure anyone cares.

Another Chromebook freed from the shackles of Google!! #nixos time!

codemonkeymike, 9 months ago to linux

Minecraft on my son's iPad was crashing everytime he signed into his M$ account.

Updates, rebooting and customer service didn't help at all.

I logged into his account from the #linux unofficial launcher, and was able to fix the account.

Now it works on the iPad.

So to be clear, I just fixed a M$ product running on iOS.. from an open source project on Linux.

Curious about how to take an "expired" Chromebook and make it into a NixBook?

Wonder no more! This was a fun project, a great up-cycle, and a great little intro into #nixos

Dear #linux friends. Does anyone need (or know somebody who needs) a good solid Linux laptop? ( 6th Gen x1 carbon )

I got this for a bargain over a year ago and it owes me nothing. I've recently replaced it and happy to mail this to someone who can use it. For free!

For shipping reasons, I can only offer this to people in the US.

i5, 8gigs of ram, 256gig SSD. Linux mint.

8 month review of the AMD Ryzen 7 beelink mini PC.... Best $300 youll ever spend.

Seriously been running full fat Linux, MySQL, PHP, Nginx, elixir, and nearly every other app I've wanted to run, and it's been fast and solid.

Workstation quality!

My #linux warm take today....

codemonkeymike, 9 months ago to tech

Any suggestions #tech friends?

I've got this basically new Lenovo #chromebook 3. And it just won't power on at all. Just does nothing. No lights, no screen. It's charge and same deal with power plugged in.

I've tried the power/ refresh trick and even took it apart so it's just mother board keyboard and screen and still nothing.

Anything else I should try?

Hahha love this! Friday love to my #php peeps.

codemonkeymike, 7 months ago to Steamdeck

Oh no. My wife is now obsessed with Burnout, my son is obsessed with no man's sky, and now they're like "how much is the #steamdeck again?"

Did I just do TOO good of a job proving this was the best gaming console?

@ChrisLAS how have you dodged this issue lol

Just got my brand new @system76 #thelio.

I have a 3 year old Thelio and it's still amazing and striking. This is even better.

Thelio is such a great example of a company that just iterates on something continuously to make it better.

Well done.

codemonkeymike, 3 months ago to UI

My SaaS company (MemberVault) is looking for a #ui / #ux #designer to help us overhaul and modernize our app.

Not a full time job yet, but contract on some projects to start and hopefully find someone we like working with long term.

Just looking for someone with clean, minimal eye for web app design. Tailwind UI type style.

Made a quick little video of my experience using #HelixEditor coming from #vscode for the past 3 weeks.

Let me know if this is helpful, or if I should do more of these, maybe with better quality lol.

codemonkeymike, 10 months ago to opensource

Looking to hire a #designer for a logo / branding project.

In short, I'm finally creating my own site that will host my blog, some mini courses and pages. Everything will be donation based and go directly to #opensource.

A constant theme will be taking old computers, and fixing them up with #linux to give them out locally to people in need.

So naturally, it will be https://www.linuxpotatoes.com/

Need a fun logo and branding help. Again, this is paid. Please boost :)

codemonkeymike, 3 months ago to php

Just finished up an in depth security audit with @valorin !

Huge recommend to anyone looking for a #PHP security audit / pen testing. He found lots of places for improvement, and took the time to educate me AS he was finding the issues, not just dropping a report.

Every day I tell my family I'm going for a jog, but then I don't go.

It's a running joke.

Glad the #Mastodon spam seems to have stopped for now. But honestly, even with the spam, it was less annoying than other social media sites lol.

Thanks again admins and the #Fediverse at large

Really getting excited for my #nixos talk at #lfnw

I'm having WAY too much fun putting this slide deck together.

codemonkeymike, 1 month ago to random

It's the mid 90s and you're at the sitting at the family computer in the living room...

What are you doing?

codemonkeymike, 1 month ago to random

If you're at #lfnw today, come check out my NixOS talk at DMC 118!

Should be up on YouTube as well!
