The reason why I didn't choose a career in Computer Science…
Here you can find the previous diary's archives...
My fellow gemi-friend ~ew just let me noticed that in the diary's title there was written "carrier" instead of "career"…
Oh my pebcak... 😂
Eventually I — temporary — stopped with OpenBSD. The reason is this Asushit crapbook has such poor hardware compatibility with all the major BSDs that makes the use quite uncomfortable. I tested MidnightBSD and GhostBSD: same hardware issues; NetBSD loader wasn't even recognized…
It is a shame but it became annoying waiting — too much often — up to 20 minutes to be able to log in into the session… 😩
Especially because I have around 90 minutes weekly to dedicate to the capsule and even 10 minutes to access to a functional state are too much… And this laptop is meant and dedicated for such task, didn't have any choice… 😩
In terms of pebcak I tried to install Void Linux but it hadn't a lazy way to enable full/partial disk/partitions encryption thus I gave up almost immediately; also because others distros including some BSD operative systems make this operation pretty trivial.
Since I lost my patience to try anything else special on Linux I ended up installing Devuan (testing), and without any real surprise 99% of the hardware has been recognized, encryption easily achieved through the installer, tons of software available, default DE (XFCE), anything fancy like WindowMaker.
Linux is boring… 👎
This means a massive reduction of pebcaks to write in this diary from now on… 😢
Another year is gone and a lot of pebcaks good and bad happened and are going to happen again!
A good pebcak is the new "Pebcak [DOT] Club" domain has been activated and the capsule transferred on it... A bad one is I already paid for "GeminiSpace [DOT] Club" till 2025... ^^"
omg.Pebcak.club the new home of Cage & Freezr
This new year then will be in the wake of pebcaks; I would love had gotten a ".ZONE" domain but in the long run it would be very expensive!
What could I say in this regard? PEBCAK!!!
