Pairing an Apple Bluetooth keyboard with Fedora 20

For some reason, this didn't work with the standard GUI bluetooth tools, so I did the following

  1. Run the command-line bluetoothctl tool
  2. type "agent on"
  3. type "scan on"
  4. press the button on your keyboard, the light should flash if it's not paired with anything else
  5. type "devices" (this shows the list of devices)
  6. type "trust xxxx" where xxxx is the keyboard MAC
  7. type "connect xxxx" where xxxx is the keyboard MAC
  8. type "pair xxxx" where xxxx is the keyboard MAC

A very minimal Emacs configuration to get started with Emacs & Evil-mode

A Starting Point for using Emacs & Evil-mode

(I wrote a bit about why Emacs and Vim on my blog and thought it might be nice to give some starting point for people that want to try it.)

If you just want to play around with Emacs & Evil mode do the following:

  1. mkdir ~/.emacs.d/
  2. copy init.el into ~/.emacs.d/
  3. Download Emacs from http://emacsformacosx.com

Create a bootable Windows USB using macOS

For some reason, it is surprisingly hard to create a bootable Windows USB using macOS. These are my steps for doing so, which have worked for me in macOS Monterey (12.6.1) for Windows 10 and 11. After following these steps, you should have a bootable Windows USB drive.

1. Download a Windows disc image (i.e. ISO file)

You can download Windows 10 or Windows 11 directly from Microsoft.

2. Identify your USB drive

After plugging the drive to your machine, identify the name of the USB device using diskutil list, which should return an output like the one below. In my case, the correct disk name is disk2.
