@winterschon I installed #KDE Neon on a #Thinkpad P14s and everything worked out of the box including WiFi, power management, the printer, and the fingerprint reader. Fantastic experience
@winterschon The wifi connects, but it runs at 1/10 the speed of the same device under Linux, and it won't connect at all if you try to configure IPv6.
I'm posting this from my IBM Thinkcentre m90q running Freebsd 14.0p6, and I can't wait for the work on the iwlwifi project to finish so we do get the same performance as Linux.
I'm just going to convert essential scripts from bash to the ever-forever-better csh.
nothing to see here #linux users, just another systems architect finally losing trust that the #GNU organization could right-side/ship-shape their community.
🏴☠️ bye bye bash, it was sometimes fun while it lasted, but mostly not.
💘 more cores 💘 more ram 💘 more ports 💘 more more more 💘
going to validate whether this SO-DIMM format will work in my TuringPi2, but generally underlying all technical plans, a vast majority of my home-lab acquisitions are solely because I want it and it's fun!
15:22,00 "sure, I'll just look at the ebay cart and check the SKU..."
16:24,00 (two browsers open split-screen with ~25+ tabs open to different listings)
"dammit ebay! I don't need to buy any more test-lab hardware... except a new three channel power supply, and maybe a new o-scope and maybe a function generator..."
ok ok that aside, check out this scumbag move from a seller:

I like the concept of Gherkin because it serves as an automatic translation tool between some element of the user workflow and the software artifact that relates to it.
"User stories" don't tend to include assertions which can then be implemented in CI automation. So, it gets hard to know when either the requirements or the implementations change.

Years ago, I worked at a security software startup when (looong story) I noticed that there was no relation between the commit Id developers used to track source and the md5 hash (of the ISO) QA used to track releases.
The remedy was to stop by my desk and ask "does the latest release have this big fix?"
Foolishly, at the cost of my job security, I solved the problem by scrubbing the build scripts and write some tables to some spreadsheets.
