I got a new job

I got a new job

So, a couple of months ago I wrote in a post that I had lost my job at Manjaro. Well, today I have some great news. I started as an IT Supporter at Automize A/S. It's a cloud based company that handles infra structure and support for other companies,

Server Upgrade

As previously mentioned in a blog post, my home server has been a Raspberry Pi 8 GB for some years now. I finally took the plunge and started the process of building a new home server. After hearing about the Odroid H3 on some podcasts from Jupiter Broadcasting I listen

I no longer work for Manjaro

Since the beginning of 2021, I have been contracted by the Manjaro company to work on Manjaro ARM. It was a bumpy ride at first, to understand what work was for the community and what was for the company, but I think I got a grip on what was what

Senfølger efter seksuelle overgreb

Puha. Denne skrivelse har været længe under vejs, men bliver nok aldrig helt færdig. Jeg er gennem årene, hver gang jeg gik ud fra at nu var der ikke mere, blevet klogere og oplyst om hvor dybt "kaninhullet" egentlig er.‌‌‌‌ Her er et uddrag fra socialministeriets hjemmeside. "Senfølger efter seksuelle

Upgrade Ghost with SQLite to MySQL

This blog is running Ghost. No big secret there. Recently Ghost did a minor release update, breaking support for the lite SQLite3 database format, which this blog was using. When I set up the blog, I chose to use SQLite3, because it's lightweight, simple, but still performed pretty good. I

Min historie, del 3

Jeg har længe været i tvivl om jeg huskede korrekt, om mine oplevelser var rigtige eller ej. Min mor var altid hurtig til at fortælle at jeg huskede forkert, eller at det var pure løgn. Derfor har jeg længe brugt en masse tid og energi på at tjekke alt hvad

Mit brev til mine forældre, bl.a.

Søndag d. 3. juni 2012 kl. 13.10, oprettede jeg det sværeste dokument jeg nogensinde har skulle skrive. Jeg havde endda startet med forskellige drafts allerede tirsdag d. 29. maj 2012, men efter mange forsøg og omformuleringer den uge, blev brevet endelig til dét jeg ville sige, som jeg havde

Min historie, del 2

Historien kort fortalt er, at jeg blev seksuelt misbrugt i ca. 10 år, af en søn af min mors bedste veninde. Længere er den ikke. Den er dog viklet ind i et giftigt miljø og et forvrægnet forhold mellem mor og datter. Min historie, min opvækst, er ikke sort og

Quartz64 development

Since the beginning of July 2021, Manjaro ARM has booted on the Quartz64 from Pine64. We have been using the kernel source from Peter Geis (pgwipeout), which is where Peter upstreams all the stuff from. So it has been working really well. In the end of July 2021, we managed

This Month in Manjaro has moved

If you are wondering, why there has been no new monthly Manjaro blog post here, it's because it has moved to the main Manjaro Blog at blog.manjaro.org. The reason for this is that the Manjaro blog is new, so it needs some posts to "activate" it, so to

How to get Blurays to play on Manjaro

I had to set this up for my wife recently and in doing so I became aware of how much of a hassle it is to do under Linux. This guide is for Manjaro Linux, but I imagine it would work for other distributions as well, by changing the install
