Pepperoni, shredded mozzarella cheese, marinara sauce – family favorite I used a dough recipe I found on BudgetBytes.com – love it, cooked perfectly and was really simple to make.
USAF, Retired
As of yesterday, I am officially retired from the USAF. I also started my new career as a Web Developer yesterday. 🙂
KDE Plasma 5.26 Wayland – Day 6
I broke my consecutive days of strictly Wayland use on Day 2, because I was having so many issues with a game I play (Splitgate). It would be fine for a few matches and then the mouse would lose tracking or whatever it’s doing. I’d have to restart the game to fix it. It started […]
KDE Plasma 5.26 Wayland – Day 1
Every so often I give Wayland a try on KDE Plasma, it normally lasts about an hour. Plasma 5.25 lasted about a day and a half, when I tried to play a game and my mouse wigged out. There were always little glitches or something, but that time I had my hopes up. openSUSE Tumbleweed […]
Scanning with an HP Printer in Linux
If you have the hplip package installed for HP Printer support in Linux, you can also use your printer’s scanner. I’m using openSUSE Tumbleweed, so the instructions are specific to openSUSE, but should work with any Linux distro beyond the printer installation. I have an HP Envy 6400 series printer with a built-in scanner. First […]
Mesa VA-API Support with Packman Package...
openSUSE recently disabled the VA-API codecs’ support in their Mesa package. This is was precautionary decision, based on advice from the SUSE legal team. It is actually easy to use the Packman Mesa package instead, which has the codecs enabled still. Just run this: This will replace your openSUSE repo packages for Mesa with the […]
DVD Playback in openSUSE
One of the few issues I’ve ran into over the years using openSUSE Tumbleweed is with codecs and media. I like to backup my DVDs to files so I can store them and play them over my network. Discs don’t last forever, so it’s nice to have a backup. It’s also nice to be able […]
NVIDIA’s Unsustainable Consumer Market
A lot has been happening lately for and against the GPU market: Intel launched its Arc GPU; NVIDIA announces the death of Moore’s Law; EVGA is no longer producing NVIDIA GPUs; GPU prices have downturned from the 2 year COVID-19/crypto mining/scalping price gouging. This feels a little like the late 1990s, to me anyway. While […]
Team Sync API
As I slowly build up the headless CMS as a service, I’m replacing some of the legacy services for sites I’ve built over the years. One of those services is a Zillow API connector, which recently stopped working (even though their API wasn’t supposed to be replaced for another month). The new Zillow API connector […]
Articles API
In addition to the DataObjects API, my upcoming headless CMS will also feature a simpler API for building different content types with the Articles API. Articles will have pre-defined fields that are optional for creating Article Types. A Type can be anything from a blog to an image gallery to simple pages. Article Types will […]
