I watched #FacesPlaces during the weekend, with Agnes Varda and JR, and it was beautiful. So human, and sincere.
Today after a BIOS upgrade, I almost thought I had locked myself out of my computer. Neither Windows nor Kubuntu would boot, and I was running out of ideas.
After many dead ends, and a couple of frustrating and scary hours, an eventual good web search told me that the upgrade had probably reset my BIOS setup, including the SATA mode.
After setting it back to AHCI, everything went back to normal.
I thought democracy in Chile was safe. Now I see America falling into the same trap

I started going through the Learning #Perl 6 book today!
Lots of things to be excited about :3
@jjatria Incidentally, that's why I think I was so shocked the first time I heard that some people listen to podcasts at faster speeds.
I get why, but I don't think that would ever do it for me. Not at least for the podcasts I care about
Radiolab was the first podcast I listened to, and what I loved the most about it was the silences. The spaces they left to allow you to stop and process what you just heard, the gaps they made to give you time to catch up.
Years later, that is still the part of podcasts that most gets to me. I appreciate being given the time to breathe.
And then go on with the story
