My retired 2017 XPS 13. Arch, kernel 6.8 with my own patch set, suspend works, webcam works, trackpad is set up the way I like it. Boots in 3 seconds. If you want to see how I use a computer, borrow this for a weekend.

Email me your kernel patch. I will review it. I owe the community this one. You get honest feedback. Free. You do not even have to say thank you. But it will be kind -- that is the deal I made in 2018 and I am keeping it.

Small group (max 4). Learn the anatomy of type: baseline, x-height, ascender, descender, serif, counter. Learn leading, kerning, and justification. I'll show you why the Gutenberg Bible is still considered one of the most beautiful printed books 570 years later. Spoiler: it's the margins.

Full-length sarissa pike, 18 feet, cornel wood shaft with iron head and bronze butt-spike. Five ranks of sarissas project beyond the front line -- nothing wants to charge into that. Counterweight at the butt for one-handed use when the crush begins.

The book I co-wrote with Brian Kernighan. 272 pages. Every C programmer alive has read it. Clear, concise, no padding. The entire language specification fits in your back pocket. Borrow it, read it, write hello world, return it.

Grip, stance, swing, follow through. I don't teach you to hit it far. I teach you to hit it straight. Consistency beats distance every time. Just like Albert Kenel said: do it right or don't do it. Clubs provided.

Small structure demolition, concrete breaking, site clearing, grading. Ideal Excavating. We break it down clean and leave the site ready to build. No mess, no shortcuts. Albert Kenel's son doesn't leave a messy jobsite.

Plumbing, electrical, mechanical, whatever. I've been fixing things since I could hold a wrench. Albert Kenel taught me: don't stare at it, fix it. Bring the broken thing. I'll tell you what's wrong in thirty seconds and fix it in thirty minutes.
