  • Everyone is going to tell you to use dd. dd if=/dev/oldsdcard of=/dev/newsdcard

    Personally, I have actually eaten an entire system by getting the wrong /dev names for the input file and the output file.

    Gparted lets you copy whole partitions and resize them, and is graphical. I have yet to destroy my computer using gparted, but I’ve definitely done so with dd. (I’m also an idiot though, so…) Edit: gparted will also let you resize the new SD to the bigger partition size! However, it is actually possible to break your system in gparted too, so make sure you aren’t deleting partitions and stuff in there.




  • I’ve had both for a while now, but I find that subtitle playback is a bit spotty in Jellyfin. Is that fixed, or have I missed a setting somewhere? The other thing is that my libraries are alphabetical in Jellyfin, so “Anime” comes before “Kaiju”, and I truly can’t stand the idea that Godzilla gets sent to the back of the bus. Is there a way to customize the order of libraries?

    I tried to get Hackintosh working on a Ryzen (first Gen, many years ago.) It didn’t go well. I think Hackintoshes are much easier on Intel chips. That said, I did once triple boot Ubuntu, Windows, and MacOS using Clover on an old ThinkPad. Triple booting can be done.



  • Well, I watched it! Yup, very western. I found myself waiting patiently for that moment where someone sits him down and explains the rules… And waiting… And waiting. Not bad, but it just seemed to be missing something. I see why Lost Boys has the bigger place in the culture. Still, fun way to waste a couple hours.




  • A friend gave me their old gaming laptop, it was mid-range when she bought it, and she didn’t use it anymore. I stuck bazzite on it, and I really like the experience! I’m no stranger to Silverblue, so some of the atomic host stuff was already old hat to me, but I was impressed by how much worked straight out of the box. It’s kinda become my retro gaming go-to device.
