Passing The Human Check

In what we can only describe as "the worst episode ever," Robbie proves he's human and experiences the same technical problems as everyone else. We'd planned to show you how to expand a RetroPie, but instead waited and waited and fought against a SD card that turned out to be a bad card! Still, we had some good troubleshooting, so if you can see past the technical problems, great! If not, tune in again next time when we retry the same feature... with a Kingston SD card.

MarshMan is working hard to document NEMS Linux WMI support for monitoring Windows-based network assets. bp9 has received his Pinebook Pro, and it's glorious: He's completely pimped it out the way he wants, with XFCE and xearth. Robbie received a new Raspberry Pi High Quality camera, along with the two available lenses, plus a Raspberry Pi 4 8 GB with an Argon ONE case. Can MikroTik bond multiple network connections?

Joining Robbie Ferguson this week are bp9, Marshman, and Peter Lewis.
