Hello Fedi friends!

I'm back in Paris after France's 2 week-long school holidays (thank you to the two sets of grandparents for looking after my little one).

I was SO EXCITED to do backups on my Mac Mini this morning and do the Spanish sound mix for my Fedi promo video (thanks to @irenerd 's wonderful work) but I'm locked out of my system.

I forgot my wired Apple keyboard in Italy and my wireless one had never been paired to this Mac Mini.

All this to say LINUX is the best because I was able to connect my Raspi to the wireless keyboard thanks to the login screen accessibility button and the ability to turn on a virtual keyboard. Aw Mac OS you could learn so much from Linux, honestly 😏​

I just ordered a wired keyboard that should arrive tomorrow afternoon... so no video editing work for a bit, but at least I have a laptop AND a Raspi with Ubuntu to do other stuff...

This week I'm setting up my music library in #Jellyfin YAY.

Wishing you all a lovely day & week.

#MySoCalledSudoLife

@elena backups and editing are important, if you want I have a wired QWERTY keyboard laying around ^^

@elena Out of curiosity (and because we had to solve this problem ourselves recently with a brand new Mac Mini), does your wireless Apple keyboard have a charging port on it? On my partner's wireless keyboard, which is "vintage" 2019, she found that plugging the keyboard in to charge from the Mini also links it to the Mini without bluetooth pairing.

But, I suspect you've already tried this ...
