“I’m not writing it down to remember it later, I’m writing it down to remember it now.”
I wrote a tool help me create/delete a bunch of VMs at once, for my local libvirt. It also creates an SSH host certificate for the VMs so that I don't have to accept new host keys, or delete them from my known hosts -file manually.
Kdrama: hyena
An average Kdrama heroine is a typical damsel in distress who needs help 24/7... Every single drama is a variation of Pride and Prejudice... Behind every awkward female, there is a rich and handsome guy, ready to help, pay, save, and give a piggy-back ride, when needed.
Hyena's main character eats dudes for breakfast though. They even made her less good-looking, for some weird reason. Thoroughly recommended series:

TV / media consumption 📺
Don't know about you, but for me the excessive amount of being at home has changed my media consumption quite a bit. I both watch more TV, but also less of what I used to watch in the past. My wife got me on Korean dramas, and despite not being the target audience, I'm totally into it!

Each transaction recorded to Bitcoin's distributed ledger currently uses ~640 kWh of electricity, or roughly the amount needed to drive a Tesla 2,200 miles (3,500 km).
Bitcoin's baked-in inefficiencies that make it bad for anyone concerned about climate.

Renewable energy not as simple as projected
https://judithcurry.com/2021/02/18/assigning-blame-for-the-blackouts-in-texas/
A great essay, dissecting the problems seen in Texas with the current energy crisis. Coming from Europe, where renewable energy is not considered a socialist hoax, the article showed something I had never thought about: the inability of renewables to be effective during extreme weather.
Being progressive is good, but at times a more conservative approach can literally keep the lights on.

Having updated to the latest KDE, I was happy to see it actually works on wayland now. I'm still on X11, not all my tools work on wayland yet, but it's getting closer.
Now XWayland is being split off from Xorg. This is the beginning of the end of Xorg. It really is dying...

Fwupd is one of the most exciting pieces of software in the last couple of years.
All non-export controlled public firmware is now also mirrored onto the IPFS, how cool is that?
