A masochist and his MacBook (Week 26)

TL;DR: I spent a good chunk of this week trying to drag a 14-year-old MacBook Pro into the present by way of every Linux distro that would boot, got a screen full of static for my trouble, and eventually clawed my way to a working Fedora install. Also: my Benchy finally floats, purple gaming gear keeps breeding on my desk, and I scheduled a memorial tattoo for Puck (lost in 2015).
