Very nice job. When my wife and I bought our current abode, it came with this massive 15 foot picnic table that was covered with this thick dark syrupy brown sealant stuff. I sanded it down and it soaked up an entire large can of exterior wood seal/stain. The old gunk that was on it was really...

Excuse me. I don’t concern myself with that Tennessee fire water. I only drink the finest Kentucky varieties, kind sir.

From afar, that looks like Tim Cook.

My gen3 iPods rubber bit is ultra sticky too. I assumed it was just the age of the unit, plastics degrading etc

Quick question - were those clouds already in that photo just washed out by the white balance or did you add them?

This reminded me of this RedFang video. 😅

Woohoo! Congrats Colin :)

Well then that settles it. You need to buy an 10.6 era iMac now :D

Fantastic score. My gen 3 is in pieces right now while it gets a new battery and SSD.

Eos is built on Ubuntu. I am newer to Eos but like it due to its similarity to macos. I have used Ubuntu on some other C2D 08 & 09 macbooks I have with great success and DD it on an A1078 09 MBP. Interestingly, Eos was not as easy an install requiring some command line work as Ubuntu which was...

I have SL, Lion and ElementaryOS on my MacBook.

Very cool. I wonder if that would work for Ambrosia screen cap apps Snapz Pro and Snapz Pro X?

The uninihibited, creative naming convention of a 3.5y/o and a 6.5y/o. :D

and my sons new beagle pup Turbo FrenchFry just ate my kb cover :D She is starting to teeth I think so shes chewing on absolutely everything she can gert a hold of. Anyhow I cant get mad at that little girl.

Awesome score :) If I lived near Free Geek, my wife would divorce me for sure. :D

If the original drive is still functioning, why not boot with the old hdd, connect the SSD as a second drive and clone/copy the spinners contents to the SSD? Then replace the spinner with the SSD & boot. Why that install is failing could be a myriad of issues from adapter incompatibility to...

I am not a fan of the shallow keyboard tolerances on the M2 keyboard. I used a generic silicone cover to add height to the keys. It has nothing to do with keeping it clean although I ended up setting up my son on it to do his virtual summer reading club classes, so not a bad idea for little...

My 75&81 y/o parents were flying back from Alaska when this F’d everything up. Initially it grounded their plane for a little over an hour which they thought would make them late to their connecting gate but their pilot was a goat & pushed the heck out of that airbus making up about 45 minutes...

Wow, there are five states in the Union that do not charge internet sales tax to residents for internet purchases. Of course my state isn’t one of them lol 😂

I think there are quite a few polished distros in 2024 that are really easy entry points for folks who just want it to work like Ubuntu for example. Polished UI, regular updates, decent snap repo, annd community etc. Now the fragmentation he speaks to I think is a natural byproduct of an open...
