Install Arch Linux on a Dell XPS 13 9310 with Disk Encryption

Tutorial / walk through: Install Arch Linux on a Dell XPS 13 9310 with Disk Encryption

Last leg of a bucket list vacation with @seeshellgo. Closing it out in style. Bora Bora is hands down the most spectacular place I've ever seen visually.

A Plea for iMessage on Android

A Plea for iMessage on Android

What’s to Come After the Ruling on Gay Marriage

Today, the US Supreme court ruled that our Constitution allows same sex marriage.

In light of this historic event, I’d like to take a moment and make a brief list of things that will and will not happen as a direct result. I’ll start with the longer list, which is the list of things that will not happen, then I’ll address things that will happen.

THINGS THAT WILL NOT HAPPEN NOW THAT GAY MARRIAGE…
