This year a lot of my holiday music was feeling enjoyable, but I was missing one song that wasn't on any of my CDs--Driving Home for Christmas. So, I find it on YouTube and have it in high rotation this year. It seems that Chris Rea, the writer of this song, was in fact driving home for Christmas 2025. Vale Chris.

Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from GamingOnLinux
We're just about to hit the full swing of the holiday season, and so GamingOnLinux will go into its usual holiday hibernation to spend time with family.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
A worthwhile reminder:
1. An absence of new releases (or even of development activity) in a software project does not in and of itself tell us anything (bad) about a project. (Common fallacy: People rushing to declare a project "dead" based on arbitrary personal expectations around commit frequency, PR turnover time and such, when they in fact don't know a thing about the project's internal processes, goals, etc.)
2. Abundant releases (or frantic development activity) in a software project does not in and of itself tell you anything (good) about a project. (Common fallacy: newer = better, more = better, bigger = better, recent = better, "better" (according to them) = better (for me))
I know this may sound a little obvious and trite, but looking at the kind of culture all around, I think it's a good idea to regularly let that sink in (I'm writing this for myself as much as for anyone reading this 😀).

What do you mean you don't obsessively count the number of chocolates in a tub of Celebrations every year and put the results into an Excel spreadsheet!?
Anyway, the 2025 results are in:
Bounty x5
Galaxy x5
Galaxy Caramel x5
Maltesers x5
Mars x9
Milky Way x9
Snickers x9
Twix x7
The tub itself has gone down another 50g since 2024 (100g since 2023!)

I wish. But as a future civil servant, I'm afraid that I'll be stuck with Windows and Microsoft Office until my retirement. Or at least with Windows, even if I'm allowed to use LibreOffice.
