Linux Uptime

Linux rarely needs a reboot.  With more recent kernels, it doesn't really need to reboot at all.  Since I've been studying for my CompTIA A+ exam, I've left a lot of material open and handy.  I lost track of how long my desktop had been running so I ran a simple terminal command "uptime" to see.



Yes, that would be 53 days, 14 hours, and 38 minutes.  Try doing that on Windows.

Fedora 41 After Install Guide

Camera: I have kids so I require a camera with a fast shutter and wide aperture.  Telephoto helps too for soccer games.  A strong macro would help especially since I take lots of nature pictures.
