Are there any FOSS developers within a six hour drive of Maine (I'm thinking eastern Canada, New England, tri-state area, etc.) who would want to be the subject of a short documentary about your project?

Aurora, Bluefin, and @bazzite.gg run great on these. Thanks to @frame.work for their support.

AI accel ootb, great desktop - Bluefin LTS will be my image of choice on these, coming to you very soon! But also get a second one for a dedicated @bazzite.gg console.

Promotional image for a fictional "New Wireless VGA Port" featuring a black VGA dongle and a list of humorous, exaggerated features titled "WTF-Level Features." Features include "QuantumLink Sync" (syncs with monitor before thinking), "Cloud Dust Repellent" (repels air particles with static vortex fields), "ASMR Mode" (whispers static noise), "Self-Charging with WiFi" (steals power from routers), "Fake 8K Upscaler" (pretends 480p is 8K), "Overclockable VGA Pins" (200% boost with nano-vibrations), "Tactical RGB Screws" (screws light up), "Bluetooth... just because" (adds Bluetooth for no reason), and "AI Cable Denier" (LLM denies cables exist). The overall tone is satirical and tech parody-themed.

Finally, a VGA adapter for 2025!

I FINALLY listened to you and tried Linux... Why did I wait so long?
YouTube video by JayzTwoCents I FINALLY listened to you and tried Linux... Why did I wait so long?

Almost to 500k views in a day. The @bazzite.gg team is just slaying right now. Just when I think we hit peak Bazzite something magical happens.

This is what happens with K8s too, not because we're special, we've just brought client Linux to cloud native.

Hi Brodie, you should absolutely interview Steven. I can help. I meet with him bi-weekly and would be happy to broker an interview. He's a good interview. Let me know, we can sync and make it happen.

Suspend (s2idle on modern laptops), is suspending to RAM, lower power state, usually flashing power button or other LED. Hibernate is saved to disk, powers off entirely. Resume is powers on, resumes like suspend.

Top panel: Fred from Scooby-Doo is about to unmask someone tied up in a blue uniform with a hood and the red cobra insignia β€” clearly representing Cobra Commander from G.I. Joe. The text at the top reads:
"IT'S TIME TO FIND OUT! WHO COBRA COMMANDER REALLY IS?"

Bottom panel: Fred has removed the hood. Underneath is the head of Starscream, a villainous Decepticon from Transformers, smirking. The implication is that Cobra Commander is secretly Starscream.

It's funny because it's true.
