Here's how to update the LBRY app on Linux using AppImage.

I've been interest in the Lisp programming langauge for a long time.
I downloaded and install the Steel Bank Common Lisp. It's available in most or all Linux repositories with the package name "sbcl":
```sudo apt install sbcl```
or
```sudo pacman -S sbcl```
You can also get the most recent version of it as a download from the SBCL website and easily install it:

Part of my business is computer repair. In this video, I talk about a serious design flaw that some laptops have. Specifically, ASUS Republic of Gamers laptops.

As a computer repair and sales guy, I have a lot of experience with ThinkPad laptops and their docking stations. I share some of my knowledge and experience with them here.
I also talk about how docking stations can be useful in laptop repair and data recovery from ThinkPad laptops.

Please let me know if you have any questions about ThinkPad laptops. I'll answer if I can. I very much enjoy using my ThinkPad T420s and other ThinkPad laptops. The X220 is also a favorite of mine and is also in this series.

I ran into the problem where Windows Disk Manager couldn't shrink a volume smaller than a 300GB even though there was only about 100GB of data on the drive. There were some files or data that Windows didn't want to move.
I was able to use a USB live boot of Linux Mint to start the computer, use gParted and shrink that partition to a smaller size.

One of my goals has been to set up a graphical user interface, specifically a Tiling Window Manager, on Alpine Linux.
In this video I explain some of my reasoning for that and some of the configuration. I also demonstrate Alpine's package manager, apk, by installing SpaceFM; a file manager based on PCmanFM. Then, I set up a shortcut key for SpaceFM in the sxhkd configuration file, sxhkdrc.
