@Maltimore I'm pretty behind on the news, due to a motorbike trip. Why are people crying over signal?

So update on my PC that used to have system crashes ALL THE TIME in Linux - I think the new GPU has solved the problem. Not a single crash in the last few weeks of reinstalling 18.04, after changing the GPU.

However, my Wi-Fi card is still having issues. I have to disable and enable wireless like every 10 minutes. New card getting delivered today. Hopefully that's the end of that.

Finally, I have an old GPU if anyone wants it? Pay postage and it's yours. It's a 2GB GT 610 by Asus.

@ivan hmm, I thought I did that, but thanks!

@ivan sorry dude, I fixed the issue so /feed or /rss should now work. I should put a redirect in place for the old url, completely forgot, sorry.

Will try and do it tomorrow if I get time.

@joseph long story, I'd rather not get in to it.

So my trip have been cut short by 2 days and I'm back home. Fuck. My. Life.

#DailyBikerSelfie today is from the gorgeous Yorkshire Dales.

#DailyBikerSelfie for today comes from the top of the Peak District.

@GreyLinux focus on the workflow of the distro, not whether it's a "new users" distro. Who cares as long as it works for you.

I think the entire #Linux community needs to move away from the idea of noob friendly, or more "hardcore" distros.

Ease of installation isn't important here, as anyone tenacious enough can find a guide online to install ANY distro with relative ease.

What we should be focusing on is workflow. Does the distro's workflow match your workflow? If so, it's a winner. Being simple to install is just a bonus.

@eladhen I agree. 👍

@mike

@mike little did you guys know that you've been mingling with a star all this time!

@joseph

@mike it ended up on a number of news outlets. Even made the local and national papers and I was on TV for an interview haha.

@joseph

@mike yeah a couple of times actually - it's great fun.

@welshgeekboy unfortunately, we're in the peak district now. 😁

@joseph me too. I even got my crash on camera!

@joseph yamaha tracer 900

@mike nope. We had a long day today, so not much time to stop off and "do stuff". Still another 30 miles to go.

@falgn0n we just kept calling it "gogogoch" as its the only bit we could pronounce!

Snowdonia. Goddam I'm lucky to have this just down the road from me.
