I accidentally installed Kubuntu 20.04 over KDE neon. No biggie, same thing, but I was expecting to be replacing my installation of Ubuntu Studio 20.04 Beta. So then I had to find something else to go on that partition. I tried Fedora but could not get confirmation that it would install correctly or would get the EFI in the right place. So I just installed Sabayon. It took less than 2.5 hours, an extremely quick installation for Gentoo, especially considering I was using an old USB2 stick and installing...

I got in a really bad car accident Wednesday morning. From the look of the video, it should have killed me, but it didn't even break anything. I've been in tons of pain and whatnot but that is receding, at a rate which amazes me. As I was driving a company car, and as they have a point system which this accident puts me over, I have been separated from my employment, as they euphemistically put it. I'm hoping I use the time off healing to find a job in computers, which I've been wanting but think...
I barely got any work done as part of the Ubuntu Budgie team. My time is just too full and I'm too stressed to be any good. So I resigned from the team, with thanks.
We're working on the 12th episode of Distrohoppers' Digest, more than a year since we started this podcast. We're taking the time we need, both to evaluate the distros we review and for life to happen around us, so it has been a tad longer than a month on average between episodes, but we're still committed to the project....

On Feb 3, I got added to the Ubuntu Budgie team as Editor and some Marketing thing. I have been just too bloody busy to do anything other than try to keep up in the Slack and Discourse; I need to get time to spend on the Wordpress site, but my next couple days are definitely taken up.
I'd love to get Distrohoppers' Digest to where episodes consistently get more than 500 downloads. We have succeeded on 2 episodes, and most are over 400, and all are over 300. I know it's a niche thing,...
I did the statistics on mintCast and Distrohoppers' Digest today, and had a mintCast meeting. I emailed Kevan about his Allegiance OS. I uploaded all my saved distros to Mega.nz. I wrote to the group leader of Ubuntu Budgie to ask how I could help. Now if I could just get a job in computers. You'd think with the End of Life of Windows 7, I could get a job installing Linux on all those old machines.
