USB Powered Clock-Fan | Widget Review
Very rarely do I impulsively buy a thing but I had a moment of weakness and purchased this USB powered clock-fan after seeing this thing in real life. Since I thought it was so cool, I had to share this rather exciting thing. Generally, I can have buyer's remorse with an impulse buy but not … Continue reading USB Powered Clock-Fan | Widget Review
Cubicle Chat | 27 Mar 2021
This past Saturday was another virtual #Linux User Group, online meetup. We discussed #Linux, tech, open source and other interesting things. The stream can be found on #YouTube, similar to #BDLL. I decided to host a #CubicleChat last Saturday. I didn't announce it in case it was a dumpster fire but it turned out fairly well. I will do another meetup next Saturday, 27 Mar.

Yakuake | Drop-down Terminal Emulator on openSUSE
I was recently asked why I haven't mentioned anything about Yakuake on CubicleNate.com so I decided to take the time and cover some of its features, what I did to modify it a smidge and why I use it. For starters, I don't think the terminal is a "power user" function. I truly believe it … Continue reading Yakuake | Drop-down Terminal Emulator on openSUSE
Cubicle Chat | 20 Mar 2021
In the absence of a Linux centered live stream called BDLL, I was encouraged by another community member, Vash, to have a kind of "low rent" replacement of the show until it is picked back up. This was my first run at such an activity and I ultimately think it went fairly well. I made … Continue reading Cubicle Chat | 20 Mar 2021
User Friendly Printer Management | openSUSE YaST
At some point in my life with openSUSE, some default policy concerning printers changed that required me to enter the root credentials to resume a printer, should it be paused for whatever reason. I did not like this default and I was contacted about this annoyance, so, I set out to fix this and make … Continue reading User Friendly Printer Management | openSUSE YaST

KDE Plasma 5.21 on openSUSE Tumbleweed | Better Then Ever
Periodically, I like to gush over my operating system and desktop. Since I move back and forth between systems running both of my distributions of choice, Leap and Tumbleweed, I can see how Plasma is advancing as well as see what a static view of it is like over the course of a year or … Continue reading KDE Plasma 5.21 on openSUSE Tumbleweed | Better Then Ever
Fedora 33 | Review from an openSUSE User
Keeping inline with my general theme of being late to the party, I have finally given Fedora 33 a spin. I have previously reviewed Fedora 31 and really enjoyed it very much. In fact, every time I have used Fedora, it has indeed been a great experience. I am again trying out Plasma because I … Continue reading Fedora 33 | Review from an openSUSE User
