Oh wow. The UK government has finally grown about 1/1000000000th of a pair.

The idea of Bluefin and Aurora (and Bazzite, the gaming focused one) is that they take the atomic fedora base and make an opinionated “just works” out of the box experience on top of it. Obviously that kind of customisation is going to be quite different between the different desktops.
Bluefin has received the most attention as it is the focus of the overall project, and Aurora is an offshoot with a smaller team. Both are really good though to be honest.

Mechboards.co.uk are having a Dutch auction for all the random stuff they need to get rid of. I scored a Keychron V6 Max for £80 which I’m pretty happy with!

In preparation we’ve been doing a lot of cleaning and purging of junk. The number of bags of stuff that has come out of this house is truly spectacular! I wish I could say we’re finished but the work will continue next week.
I really need to start selling some computer stuff as well. If anyone in the UK happens to be after a AMD Ryzen 3900XT based workstation/gaming PC let me know…
One slightly weird thing I had is that inbound #ipv6 traffic on both SSH and HTTPS was returning a "connection reset by peer" for a while. It seems to be working now, but if some IPv6 folks can check https://cablespaghetti.dev loads properly over v6 for them now, it would put my mind at rest.

It came with a driver CD-ROM! How retro is that! I have some old machines with optical drives, but I’m pretty sure that’s not the norm in 2025…
@sam Can the cartridges be loaded with marmalade, or would that make it jam?
