Local Instance PHPMyAdmin
Wanted to see what PhpMyAdmin is like in this new version after on hiatus for so long without messing with PHP + Apache + mariadb/PostGreSQL. Its kool to see how this product has improved so much over time.
Local Instance Dokuwiki
Similar to the previous two php applications, MediaWiki and WordPress running on localhost. Trying to test out this lightweight version of wiki. It is a super simple installation process, unlike MediaWiki. It doesn’t feel as if dokuwiki uses MariaDB since there isnt a configuration screen in MariaDB config.

Asus Chromebook Intel AlderLake CX5601FBA
This machine was an interesting device, its quite large and sturdy with a large, hefty screen. Perhaps, around 16.2 inches of screen real estate. Similar to the HP G6 machine, using an Intel chip, but this machine contained an Intel i3 Core with 2 CPUs baked into the MOBO. Following my previous steps in preparing…

There was a Client who had asked me to install a Linux distro unto their HP Chromebook device. Initially, i wasnt sure whether it would work on their device. After some research on MrChromebox.tech website, the firmware deployed by Google can be overwritten by conducting quite a few arduous steps. i didnt realize that the…
