my hand made & made from scratch, pecan mammoul cookies (dec 2023) #baking #foodie #food #photography #cookies — like one of the best things i’ve ever made 😇 they’re usually filled with dates, walnuts or pistachios but i chopped up some pecans and used those, turned out pretty good 😌

First time installing Rocky Linux and was surprised to see a Web console available on initial boot up. Basic metrics, networking information, and even a terminal are all available through your web browser. Extra dope. rockylinux.org

The default web console of the Rocky Linux distribution. Basic memory and cpu metrics, configuration, and system information are displayed on the home page.

how i like my coffee these days from my local coffee shop: turkish coffee (they only fill 1/3 of the cup, it’s very smooth, actually not bitter at all) + two shots of espresso. no milk. no sugar. #coffee #photography #coffeesnob
