Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

I have some ports wearing out (from kids tripping on the cable) plus the screen bezel has been broken for a long time. Will be nice to get some new bits! Plus get some of the port options that weren't available when I got mine, like SD card reader or ethernet port.

I also wanted to upgrade the guts some time back but I'll hold out for this announcement and see what the new stuff looks like (or get a discount on the old stuff).

Then I'll have yet another machine to use as a server (the old mainboard) 😅
