BTW, we are a new and growing community. We absolutely do want to support new and first time speakers! @ngerakines.me has some ideas around mentorship and feedback to help make great presentations, and also how lightning talks can give every one a way to present their ideas & projects.
Yay! Can't wait to see some great proposals start rolling in!

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

I guess I'm a techie again? Taking apart a 750 watt power supply (CAREFULLY) and installing a new fan.
Just remembered Yaphet Kotto is in The Running Man (re-watching) and now I'm like Hell Yeah. I've fallen down an 70's/80's sci-fi hole post Alien Earth.

I found this Linux program called "asciiquarium" that basically turns your terminal into an aquarium full of little ASCII fish and sharks and stuff, it's really fun ^-^
One thing generative AI is really putting the zap on my head over; It's not the images, not the video.. it's well formatted .md files with emojis.

The PC will still be utilised in a strange way, other than gaming. I'm going to use it to mock up a Kubernetes target for deployments. And I can also lean on the GPU with ollama to play with local models.
So the downgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 from 24.04 was so that I could regain access to my hybrid graphics, allowing me to run multi-monitor from the Thinkpad. A weirdness I wasn't expecting. I also have to remember to be a little less cavalier with my upgrades.
I also uh, "fixed" my keyboard. This whole bit needs to be replaced, frankly.
Current setup; mainlining my Thinkpad with Ubuntu 22.04 Desktop on it for dev again. The somewhat long experiment with WSL2 on Windows 11 wasn't a failure, but the annoyances finally got to me (wonky file handling, wonky Docker integration, wonky hot reload in Node (wtf)).
I'm a little surprised git isn't just a default package in Ubuntu now, but there's probably a good reason for it.
Downgrade from Ubuntu 24.04 to 22.04 complete. Ah the joys of owning an ageing (but still TOTALLY METAL) Thinkpad.
