# Blog For the New Year, nice pan cool system dee things

This is my first blog entry for the year. Mostly some nice systemd things I learned:

```bash
journalctl --system -b -1
```

And I also got a nice pan (a griddle which is cast iron, polished, and light) by the field company. So far I like it, its a nine inch pan, and seems to season nicely. I did some onions on it.

I also bought myself a new reciever, by denon. Its the bomb! very nice, and it has a tendency to sound TOO nice. VERY nice setup and atmos rulez!

Not sure if this helps too much, but if you have an amd graphics card and linux isn't waking, [this](https://nyanpasu64.gitlab.io/blog/amdgpu-sleep-wake-hang/) might help. The bug prevents sleep if the memory is too filled.

Also if you are looking for a new photography program for linux to try out, [openshot](https://www.openshot.org/) seems nice (not as powerful as darktable, however).

I also came up with a nice recipe for hash browns (I did it by accident). Simple as Pi: Just par-boil the potatoe (preferably something like yukon golds) in the microwave for 3 mins for a large one, or 6 mins for two medium), and then grate. I don't even peel. Add salt and pepper to the mix, and optionally garlic, onion powder, and pepper. Gently mix, and then crisp up on each side on a reasonably well-greased grill, POOF happy hashbrowns.

Overall had a GREAT vacation in Florida. I got to eat FRESH OFF THE TREE starfruit. I LOVE starfruit!
