 Recently had an amazing chat with Matthew Rathbone, the creator of Beekeeper Studio.

It's really amazing how dedicated he is to making an amazing #mysql #postgresql #mariadb GUI for #linux 

If you haven't checked it out already, please do, and consider supporting the development!

Hey when you set up Linux... 
 @1324ee1a Honestly, I always install Google Chrome via the DEB on these machines.  People have a hard enough time knowing they're not on windows, not going to make them use firefox too! 
 nostr:npub1e2p79z2nl0xkd2n0qy52wwvej2y3j8ps28nl4utfsw0apsnc586seraqmc I'm a big fan of Jellyfin. ... 
 @a468f859 thanks!  I have the hardware. Just a Celeron beelink. But plenty of local storage. I'll have a play with jellyfin! 
 Hey #linux peeps. If I wanted to make a dead simple media center machine that just had a bunch of local movies on it or could play from a USB drive, what would you recommend?  

#jellyfin ? Or is that overkill? 
 Does anyone know if I can run the #arduino create software on #nixos 

I got my kid and I this cool 30 days lost in space kit and it hinges on this Arduino hero board. But the create software looks to online be Mac, windows and ChromeOS. 

And I don't see it in the nix repos. It does have a Linux installer but is just an sh that doesn't seem to work in nix. 

Help, my kid is making fun of Linux now!
