I just did X11 Forward over ssh to my main computer from an old laptop i'm using as a Software KVM switch. I just opened Intellij, it works, it really works. The laptop has a Celeron M 420. This feels so wrong.

They brought edubuntu back from the dead, wow. A gnu/linux distro being revived. Makes me wonder whether this is uncommon, or that I'm not THAT into distros

How I almost killed my keyboard by cleaning it with rubbing alcohol. Left it under the sun all day, and it seems there's no lasting damage. Yay.
