Uninstalled the iwd package on Asahi (in an attempt to get 802.1x connectivity), lost all wifi. The easiest way to get the iwd rpm files on Asahi was to download them on MacOS and then use the EFI partition as a shared drive.

Arrgh. Just when I was starting to get used dealing with LLM-generated PRs, now I'm getting LLM generated feature requests. Without any rhyme or reason. And as always, it takes significant effort to deal with this bullshit because it almost sounds plausible. Please don't do this […]

The latest #SQLite release (3.48.0, released 2025-01-14) drops the TCL build-time requirement by switching from Autoconf to Autosetup, which comes with a tiny TCL implementation (Jim’s TCL, ~10k LOC). You still need TCL to run tests though. Would be interesting to see how distros pick this up. […]

[Very minor spoilers for Brandon Sanderson’s Stormlight Archive Book 5 - Wind and Truth.] Finished #windandtruth today. It has a few faults, but delivers on most fronts - the ending is not something I was expecting. A lot of expected theories came true, but my favourite was Adolin’s storyline […]

Upgraded my @AsahiLinux setup on (M2/Air) to Fedora 41. I had to uninstall kunifiedpush, neochat, and telegram-desktop due to some KDE/QT dependency mismatch. Rest was all painless.

Attending a VCV Rack workshop tomorrow (https://blrhubba.in/event/8c9c9274-2e0e-4318-8bf6-ce4c1061b9e9), but it looks like there's no builds available for ARM64/Linux. Will probably suck it up, and use MacOS, but would have been nice to be able to use Asahi for the workshop.
