Having a small collection idevices in our household, we tend use the icloud calendar app and iCal coordinate our lives. With some work, non apple devices can share the same calendar

Though, every now and then I hit a snag when installing a new package, especially from a PPA. The most common of these relate to security/verification using PKI.

I installed Wireshark the other day on Ubuntu 16.10 so I could analyse what is going over the wire in GNS3 and later on physical network topologies. Unfortunately, Wireshark has implemented Privilege Separation which means that the Wireshark GUI (or the tshark CLI) can run as a normal user while the dumpcap capture utility runs as root

A guide created from memory and some notes on how I installed Arch Linux (BTW) using UEFI settings, NVMe storage. and LVM filesystem. Grub now supports NVMe but not “exotic” filesystems like LVM or LUKS encryption as the root (/) filesystem
