Hmm, I did not know you were supposed to put your hand over your heart for the singing of the US National ANthem. I always just stood at attention.
Apparently it's a thing, and not doing it causes social media uproar.
It's a major thing. If we didn't do that in school we would have been beaten. You were not allowed to attend school unless you too the oath and swore allegiance every day.
Pledge, yes.
Anthem, no.

Well, in state sponsored nanny time (1-6), we did both every day. In "high school" we just did the pledge every day.

Just heard about this: https://airtame.com/
Wireless HDMI connector... Seems interesting, but a little pricey at $299 (keep in mind, I am cheap and don't know much about any other similar devices)...
I saw this as a FB ad.

@dafyre You can buy an iogear wireless AV kit for like $140-ish that is clunkier but does the same thing.

Nice! Now you can afford that new server you always wanted to buy!
Edit: Nope. You're getting married. You have no money.

Just learned something really cool about X2Go Server... If you use their nightly PPA, you can actually connect to an active desktop session... so if I use my laptop and lock it and then walk away... I can connect back to it and use my system right where I left off.

Yeah. It seems to work relatively well with my VM. Now to see how it runs on hardware after I get home. Do you know if there's an Android X2Go client? (search results usually show a Stock Trading app, lol).

Off the top of my head I remember someone talking about a Chrome App. Never heard of it for Android.
