Codepope's Development Hell


Because development is hell, but it's my hell.

Reset for 2024

In which the codepope considers what has been slowing down his creative/breaking urges and resolves to do 2024 differently

Reconnecting with Superconnector

Ughbuntu - how did we get here?

In which I become irritated at the practical state of desktop Ubuntu…
