Hi everyone!

I've rejoined the Fediverse. I've been here on and off since the beginning, so I'm familiar with how things work, but I've just moved over from my Mastodon instance to my new GoToSocial instance.

I love popular culture, reading books, watching movies, and occasionally playing video games, mostly on the Nintendo Switch 2. I also do photography but rarely share my pictures online, though I have a Flickr account. I have one cat.

I'm currently reading: Robin Hobb's works. Previously, I've read: Terry Pratchett, Brandon Sanderson, and Kurt Vonnegut.

I use NixOS and KDE.

Nice to meet you!

I dumped Windows 11 for Linux, and you should too

With the growing number of users jumping from Windows to Linux, I decided to fully take the plunge and dive deep into the Open Source ocean. A few months and several headaches later, it has proved to be the best computer-related decision I've made in over a decade (and perhaps in my entire life).

10 months ago, my daughter and I replaced the dead battery on our #Nintendo #Switch. Last week, the fan started making a loud noise, raising concerns about the machine's cooling performance.

Time to open up our Switch again.

We ordered a replacement kit from #iFixIt and followed their guide. It is always advisable to read the text alongside the images. Overall, the process was straightforward, albeit lengthy.

Favourite moment for my daughter: when we turned on the device and played a bit Super Mario Wonder while its inner workings were still exposed. — Open switch, shortly before replacing the fan.
