exFAT support on macOS seems to have some bugs because my external drives with exFAT formatting will randomly get corrupted.

Disk Utility is unable to repair this at first, but the fix is this:

1. Use diskutil list to find the right drive id.
2. You want the id under the IDENTIFIER column, it should look like disk1s1
3. Run sudo fsck_exfat -d <id from above>. eg sudo fsck_exfat -d disk1s3
4. -d is debug so you'll see all your files output as they're processed.
5. Answer YES if it gives you the prompt Main boot region needs to be updated. Yes/No?

IMPORTANT: Ignore the out-of-date steps below for getting Chromium keys.

Instead, read this up-to-date guide (Jan 2023) written by @LearningToPi.

P.S. Thank you to every contributor below who provided tips over the years on what should be a straightforward process: setting up Chromium for local development.

Long live the web!

nVidia drivers installation on ElementaryOS - Loki

Introduction

ElementaryOS - Loki is an amazing ubuntu based distribution, I've just felt in love on it BUT they've removed what's required to install easily the nVidia Proprietary drivers. So here is the reason of this gist, to store the install instructions in one place inside a crystal clear documentation.

Minecraft on Apple Silicon

In this gist, you can find the steps to run Minecraft 1.16.4 natively on Apple Silicon (AS), without needing Rosetta 2 translation of the dependencies (mainly LWJGL and related libraries).

While it's possible to use a launcher like MultiMC to have a prettier way to run the game on AS, it requires installing even more dependencies (like QT) which take time and are difficult to distribute. Therefore, I've put together a command line-based launcher tool using a couple shell & Python scripts.

To get up and running quickly, follow the steps below. Otherwise, for more detail, watch my YouTube video.
