Uncle Went to the Hospital

Uncle went to the hospital. Chatted online. Tried fixing audio on Miller the Chromebook. Had bean burritos for dinner.

Stayed up til 02:30 chatting on IRC and waiting for system to build. It built successfully! I rebooted into the new system, but sound still did not work.

12:15. Woke up. Got dressed. Went downstairs. Took pills. Got a pineapple coconut Bubly. Brushed my hair.

Got on laptop Hermes. Checked System Crafters forum. Replied to mrok that the system built but I still have no sound. Checked email. Checked web feeds. Checked Gemini feeds. Checked Mastodon.

13:30. Mom and uncle left to go to the hospital. I stayed home, drank an oatmilk Starbucks frap, and ate Cheerios with soy milk. Had a delightful visit to the bathroom. Logged into Snikket.

14:00. Emailed bug-guix the transcript of my failed "guix pull" on Trisquel. Posted about it to the Trisquel forum as well.

15:10. Mom and uncle return home.

15:54. Made some changes to Chromebook Guix. Named package "chromebook-alsa-lib". Built system. Posted update to System Crafters forum.

16:31. Found out Gnafu will now be working full time with MBOA. Having bean burritos for dinner tonight. Plugged in laptop Hermes.

17:39. Learned how to kill a whole line without doing C-a C-k: "kill-whole-line" or C-S-backspace. Unfortunately, my terminal won't let me type it. I guess I'll stick to C-a C-k. I also learned how to navigate by sentences: M-a ("backward-sentence") and M-e ("forward-sentence").

18:00. Watched Farmhouse Fixer on HGTV. They fixed John Proctor's house. Someone on System Crafters IRC is making a guide on how to use rde. Ate a few medjool dates.

19:00. Turned on air conditioner upstairs. It's twice as hot up there! Ate 6 bean tacos on corn tortillas with Taco Bell Hot sauce. Got a glass of iced water. Rinsed mouth with Listerine.

20:00. Chatted on IRC. Heard some news that Russian soldiers are being poisoned. Got tired. Thought of going to bed already. Watched Wildcard Kitchen on Food Network; the lady that had to cook without oil refused to take on the challenge! We cook without oil all the time!

21:00. Went upstairs to work on Miller.
