#nowplaying "Neurotic" - The Bouncing Souls

Battery array upgrade time.

Hell yeah! Installed GuixSD to my laptop. Just in time for some off-the-grid hacking.

#nowplaying "Fade Away" - Ten Foot Pole

Homemade paneer! Is this going to be my gateway drug into cheesemaking?

Finished up with my first playthrough of Sigil. That was definitely worth the hype, though the difficulty curve was hella unforgiving. And fuck this one part in particular.

Good day for some barbecue.

Well, (initial) remote deployment is working, and it isn't even time for lunch yet. I have a feeling I'm going to get a lot done today.

Good morning!

Sadly, that was because I needed to load nonfree firmware for this machine to work. :((((

Feeling like an absolute H A C K E R M A N after creating and booting into a GuixSD disk image with a custom kernel

Poor guy...

I think I can call it a night. This should be enough of an environment for working on Guix Deploy.

Kali maa... Kali maa shakti de...

In general, I try to avoid "cheap" options and instead save up money to buy something that I won't have to replace in a year, but these things are a solid order of magnitude cheaper than a real scope. How could I say no?

I've come up with a guerrilla recruiting strategy for finding people at my uni who may be interested in being on a CTF team. I just have to be strategic in where I put these.

Red line was a mess so I missed the keynote, but I'm here! #libreplanet #libreplanet2019

This was a fun read. I was a bit turned off by the book's foreword, but disregarding my preconceptions and reading on turned out to be the right decision. It really is an interesting piece about the cultural impact of BASIC and the Commodore. A good choice if you're looking for some lighter tech-related reading, and there's even a PDF available under the Creative Commons BY-NC-SA 3.0 license.

My FreeDOS shirt arrived!
