Annotate PDFs on Linux
This post is about a GUI tool called pdfrankestein that
fills a gap on mostly Linux machines where a powerful and easy to use
PDF annotator does not exist.

Adobe Acrobat® on Windows and Mac allow you to add text, drawings and
signatures to PDF documents. This is useful when filling forms or
marking notes to send back to someone. Such a tool with similar
capabilities and easy of use does not exist on Linux. The reason that’s
often cited is that PDF is a c … ⌘ Read more

Ok, so I have now installed CloudReady, switched to the beta channel as well, but I can’t use Linux because my CPU is not secured against Spectre/Meltdown and CloudReady doesn’t come with microcode updates. Until that comes, my ThinkPad will probably only be for browsing, watching videos, and blogging… ⌘ Read more

How Docker Desktop Networking Works Under the Hood
Modern applications make extensive use of networks. At build time it’s common to apt-get/dnf/yum/apk install a package from a Linux distribution’s package repository. At runtime an application may wish to connect() to an internal postgres or mysql database to persist some state, while also calling listen() and accept() to expose APIs and UIs over TCP […]

Local man switches to Arch, tells no one
Yesterday, at approximately 5:05pm, a Seattle area man installed Arch Linux on his home computer and has yet to tell anyone. “This appears to be the first occurrence of failing to tell someone that you run Arch,” stated a representative of the Seattle Sheriff’s Department. “We are actively investigating whether or not this is a crime. It definitely is a violation of norms.” ⌘ Read more

Oh, me too: FreeBSD, macOS, and Solaris in server environments extensively, and Linux, AIX, HP/UX, Irix, probably others I’m forgetting. Plan 9 is a whole other class of thing.

Reviews of All Linux Distros (That Matter)
Firstly, once you reach basic competency in Linux, different distributions don’t matter. A lot of newbies analyze distros based on what they look like when you install them, often not realizing that it’s a pretty simple affair not just to change superficial things like your theme and setup, but entire desktop environments. Basically all distro reviews online are wastes of time for people who know what they’re doing. When I came to YouTube, all … ⌘ Read more

People have quoted me as saying that.I forget where it comes from, probably a livestream, but I definitely stand by it.Since a lot of people labor under the assumption that my channel is about “Linux,” I’ve accumulated a lot of subscribers that are variously nerds, furries, degenerates, coomers, libertarians, communists, trannies and among them are vegans.Some of them (I assume) are good people.
