  • I’m a pepperhead myself but my wife has a very low tolerance so I tend to cook mildly hot meals at best and add heat in my own plate. I have a fridge rack full of hot sauces.

    One of my favorite dishes to unleash the hot sauce collection is homemade tacos (disclaimer, I’m not Mexican):

    • Guacamole for freshness and acidity (avocado, lime juice, chopped coriander, shallots, tabasco sauce, cumin powder, salt)
    • Elote-style sauce for richness and creaminess (50/50 mayo and heavy cream, grated garlic, chopped coriander, crumbled feta, pimienton de la Vera, corn (grilled fresh is better, canned is fine))
    • Grilled/braised protein and veggies for earthiness, umami and heat (chicken, onions, red peppers, cumin powder, coriander seeds powder, all the peppers you want, it works great with earthy or smoky peppers like ancho, chipotle, pimienton de la Vera, habanero etc.)
    • Pico de gallo for added freshness (chopped onion, chopped coriander, chopped tomato, lime juice)
    • Pickled jalapenos for acidity and heat

    Put everything in the middle of the table with tortillas and have fun. It seems like a lot of stuff to do but good prep makes it easy and streamlined as a lot of ingredients are shared or similar. Every preparation is super flavorful by itself but really shines with hot sauces as you can tune brightness, earthiness and heat in each mouthful.



  • Our wedding was under 5k, excluding dress and suit. Immediate family and close friends only, less than 40 people. Major expenses were the photographer, food and booze. We rented a cheap, small place in the countryside, we planned and did everything else ourselves, having a kanban board in the kitchen for a year was fun! My wife even did the cakes herself because she’s an amazing amateur pastry chef. No DJ, but I spent months on and off curating a playlist with a good flow and steadily increasing intensity.

    It was the perfect wedding. Huge amount of work but 100% worth it.







  • On my previous laptop, the trackpad had a bug that made it spam interrupts after waking up from sleep. It ruined battery life and basically kept one core at 100% permanently.

    So I duct-taped a systemd script that unbound and bound the trackpad after each wake up.

    #!/bin/sh
    case "$1" in
            post)
                    echo -n "i2c_designware.0" > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/i2c_designware/unbind
                    echo -n "i2c_designware.0" > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/i2c_designware/bind
            ;;
    esac
    





  • “Cloud Native” means uBlue’s OS images are basically Docker images, but meant tu run on bare metal instead of inside virtualization, that are built automatically with GitHub actions.

    The project itself is super interesting. It’s not a distro, it’s an alternative automated build pipeline toolkit for Silverblue/CoreOS that lets anyone build their perfect atomic image. It’s still 100% Fedora+rpmfusion under the hood.

    UBlue’s official images have massive quality of life improvements over Silverblue.

    Yes. Tuxedo is German, Slimbook Spanish, Starlabs British, NovaCustom Dutch… Framework is US/Taiwanese but sells within select EU countries and the UK. AFAIK S76 is US/Canada only.

    Edit: most of these actually ship worldwide but won’t collect VAT and probably won’t honor warranty claims outside their territory.

    Regular Linux distros have 30+ years of history. It’s what most of us are used to. Immutable/atomic/transactional OSes are relatively recent hence the relatively low adoption rate.

    Also, atomic OSes are, by nature, much harder to tinker with. After all, the goal is to provide the exact same image for all users. As a power user, it’s a bit frustrating. As a new user, having a virtually unborkable system is excellent.

    If you plan on installing an atomic variant of Fedora, may I suggest uBlue Aurora instead of Fedora Kinoite? It is based on Silverblue/Kinoite but includes by default, among other QOL improvements, the restricted-licence codecs that must be manually installed in official Fedora products.
