Pixelbook: the ultimate Chromebook revival for 2024

I fell in love with the Pixelbook about two months ago. I saw a coworker at Google using one, and I was immediately impressed by its extreme thinness. The Pixelbook is as thin as two USB-C ports stacked. Why hadn’t I paid any attention to such a beautiful device until now? The forgotten Chromebook Chromebooks were first announced in 2011, and I admit I ignorantly dismissed them as cheap laptops…

Linux on the Desktop: Google Pixelbook Edition

Linux on the Desktop: Google Pixelbook Edition

A friend of mine recently shared this post in our Slack group marking 2022 as the year of Linux on the Desktop.  While my own days of running Linux of self-built PCs are long gone, I’ve toyed with the Debian Linux distro occasionally since buying a Google Pixelbook back when the first came out in 2018.  I walked through post like this one explaining how to set up on Pixelbook for dev work.  I…

敬虔な Chrome OS user として思うのは、一時期 Chrome OS に足りてないのはソフトウェアだと思われていたが、ハードウェアも足りないよ！てか別にブラウザ以外動かなくていいから速い CPU とメモリをくれよ！ブラウザって専用ソフトウェアより遅いんですよ？JS とかシングルスレッドよ？わかってんの？すべて Pixelbook チームをレイオフしてしまった経営者が悪い。

The iPad Pro Road Test

I went on vacation with Krissy for the last several days (to celebrate our anniversary), and rather than to take either my Pixelbook or my Dell XPS 13 with me, I took my new M2 iPad Pro with its Magic Keyboard to see if it was a suitable laptop replacement for a short trip. I am back now with thoughts. Let’s start off with: THINGS THAT I LIKED: 1. The iPad’s computing capabilities. It’s got an…

Bro I'm not asking you to dox yourself but what online communities did you come up in that have you speaking this fancy

Hi anon, I have a lot of influences.

My first social media site was reddit. Specifically /r/ThinkPad, where the hottest advice was around the 7-row keyboard and the X220 or T420 laptops and coreboot and IPS displays and oh my goodness those 51nb motherboards look wonderful. 2015, 2016. When I got my Pixelbook in 2019 I would later apply this same vigor to /r/ChromeOS. I think this forms the core of my tone. Lying, giving disingenuous advice; I can do it, but it feels inefficient. It is much easier to be helpful. And of course I could not say anything if I don't have anything to say.

Word choice gets a bit tricker. The words I use are dependent on the interests and hobbies I'm most interested in at the time, but some metaphors carry over. I'm not as interested in PKM as I was in 2022, but I still think about molecularity and growth and evolution and information. It's a bit arbitrary. If I were a touch more focused on neuroscience you might hear me mention, oddly specifically, about networks and connection weights and gross vs. microscopic anatomy. So you have to be willing to be specific.

Discord provides the gift of editing. Long DMs with a best friend. Group servers. It's really incredible how much the experience changes when you commit yourself to writing one or two sentences at a time. It feels serious at first but you gain a sense of complexity, of nuance. So I edit on the fly, and often. It's a bit inefficient but good enough for my thought patterns, which would otherwise be quite messy.

Nowadays I'm adjacent to Twitter's TPOT, but even before then, I had this striking feeling of being not just helpful but also truthful, and relevant, and essential. (Those three attributes are lifted from a certain Seer in a certain Epilogue of a certain webcomic.) And so I would fit as much complexity as possible. I think it still carries over now.

As for Tumblr, I was lurking and observing mcytblr starting early 2021. I had plenty of time to see behavior patterns and cultural shifts. Eventually I crystallized my observations in an impromptu amateur ethnography on the fandom. Naturally I had to define some new concepts and come up with specific phrasing. But I've also gained a taste for shitposting and levity and evaporated humor from the recirculating reblogs. It feels oddly familiar.

Nowadays I just use this new blog as a traditional blog. Longerform. There was this guy -- an author on Tumblr, I know him, just can't remember the name -- who said that Tumblr blogs and classic blogs were analogous to really nice junk food and a glass of wine respectively. I think there's still room on Tumblr for wine...letting your thoughts rest and ferment for a bit into something slightly different but altogether delightful. Which, I think, could've been the essence of blogging to begin with.
