On Android, AntennaPod has excellent integration with gpodder.net servers (which you can self-host), and is also free software.

The best technique to do this, which I just used tonight is to use the Windows 10 media creation tool to create a USB installer. Then use the Windows 11 media creation tool to download the Windows 11 ISO. Then copy the install.esd from the sources folder of the Windows 11 ISO over the one on the Windows 10 USB stick.

That creates a Windows 11 installer that works on any PC that meets the requirements for Windows 10. At first this installer will even say that it's installing Windows 10, but it actually installs its esd payload, which is Windows 11.

Comcast makes you downgrade to a business account if you want to get a reverse DNS entry from them. Reverse DNS is a requirement if you want to host your own e-mail and not have your mail categorized as spam. Comcast business accounts don't allow you to use your own DOCSIS modem.

We're about to experience a dreamy period of numerical software versioning where Debian, Windows, and macOS have all gone to eleven

I'm excited for the Debian 11 release this weekend, because that means the testing repository unfreeze will allow Gnome 40 to come into play soon

Don't worry people! Common Base Linux-Mariner is only going to embrace and extend! There are absolutely no current plans to extinguish.

The soundtrack to Full Throttle rules. At one point in the game, the radio plays a hilarious country song about a guy who loves living in the post-apocalypse.

  The population is greatly decreased.
  And now the odds are greatly increased,
  that I may someday get a chance
  to kiss your lips.
  I thank the lo-o-ord each day
  for the apocalypse.

  Folks are mostly disfigured or dead,
  but sugar, I wont let it go to my head.
  My mama's face has dripped down into the dirt.

  But I'm still chasin' chitlins, whiskey and skirt.
Here's the song on youtube: https://youtu.be/lnD82Xh3cts

During the pandemic lockdown, David Bowie's son Duncan Jones wrote a screenplay adaptation of Full Throttle:

Blender rules. It's awesome to see this little Dutch program become such a consummate piece of free software.

It's a flagship Linux program. It's accessible enough for nerdy artists and also deep enough for computer graphics experts.

It's polished. It costs zero dollars. Hell yeah!

I used a new computer to install Windows 11 onto an SSD, then I pulled out the SSD and popped it into an old computer with no TPM and and an unsupported third-generation Intel CPU. It works great!
