Computationals

The image depicts a view of Earth from space with a prominent lunar surface in the foreground. The Moon features a textured, grayish surface that appears rough and craggy, showcasing a variety of shapes and shadows. In the background, Earth is visible as a vibrant blue and white sphere, indicating the planet's oceans and clouds. The backdrop is deep black, emphasizing the stark contrast between the celestial bodies. Text is overlaid on the image, providing a quote from Christina Koch, an astronaut associated with the Artemis 2 mission.

First up, trying Krokiet, which is an update of Czkawka, to find duplicate files. It's open-source. I have a lot of terabytes. So it'll take a while.

KDE Connect is a bunch of programs that let phones connect with computers. Very multi-platform. Open-source. 

Rufus is a bootable-drive maker thingy. I had some success and some trouble with Etcher
