April

how do I even know if anyone even sees these pages? I suppose that's why I stopped updating them


April 17, 2023 8:28 PM EST

And did he ever even get to that part about 'helmet safety' and that the guy in the photo wasn't wearing one?

Oh, no, yet another topic for the echo factory to pretend that people care about and repeat over and over.

 
 this is a lot more
             fun
         than wading
         in through the chan spam.

if you don't have proper fonts installed you won't see what this picture shows: the output of the echo command with unicode symbols as input. If you are blind basically the unicode are symbols that you could feel as shapes. If you have a 'font box', which would be like that divice with all the pins in it that you can place your hand inside, and the shape of your hand will appear on the surface. If such a thing locked, it would then let a blind person feel it and they would feel the shape. such a device that does that for font shapes would greatly aid the blind. It would be a 'kind of' high resolution new-braille. Call it a 'sean-box' font reader.

Free Speach

Costs a lot

Godspeed to all the Free Speach warriors. If you are down where the action is, then please witness, if you can, not violently.

Thuggary is met in many different ways. The level of corruption that needs to be stomped back (see how the idioma mandate que yo usa parlabras con indicaciones della violencia ante los hombres delli tyranny facistica?) by the force of nonviolent rage, which is the utmost of violence with in the realm of the Spirit, where one ought not have been there in the first place, that level of indignation magnifies when the display of unreasonable behavior can be cataloged and revealed. We live in a world where information has the ability to force miscreants to at least pretend to civility.

If any one is listening: my council is that you proceed without become a martyr. That doesn't help anyone. When you are angry, outraged, sure, you say stuff that isn't right. You might be emotional about feeling descrimination sting you directly. The hive sends it squad of goons out there to bust your chops for doing what you say is your right. You go to their place and, as they see it, piss on their bushes. What do they do? They send in the goons.

The form of recorder that allows for the automatic download of the information to a server will allow for the documentation of the event. The information needs to be uploaded to the cloud as it happens, so that there can be a ferensic evaluation of what is deemed tyrannical. If one is dealing with deluded institutions, who tell the public to eat the cake that they bake and serve, the public already kindof gets that we don't want any of their cake.

Always in Need of edit

"Eat the Cake. Eat the Cake."

"I don't want any of your damnible cake!"

"Then we will kill you"

OK, I can see it on an episode of an espionage television show from the 1960s about the invasion of the Chech and Slovok countries (that had been conglomerated). But today? Do we have to deal with such mediocre writing?

We don't need any more martyrs. The world doesn't gain when good people fall on their swords.

The lack of maintenance can create a septic situation. Even good people, the righteous, can be taken down by the colera of the festerbog. Better to stay way, not shake the bog-beasts by their necks, not try to kill the crocks and gators that fester their. They are in their natural habitat, not yours.

ah, but I'm not deep down there in it. If someone wants to drain a swamp to cure the colera, maybe build a better sewer system, then who am I way up here to tell them not to?

I really hope it is a slow news day today. The weather has gotten cold and I need to plug the leaks in my wall. If you think this is some metaphor about 'leaks' from a firewall, it isn't. I actually have to finish off an attic room so that I can cut my heating and cooling costs by getting rid of the drafts and insulating the walls.

My neighbot told me . . . and this is where it gets to almost sound like an allegory . . . that one of the houses down the street was so well sealed, with no leaks at all that the environment inside the house became very unhealthful. (oh what an allegory that is!). The place got all steamy inside, during when the family that lives there were away (like the people who seem to be in charge in our institutions. They are 'away' off in thier minds living in the delusions which thier institutions demand). All the alarms went off in the house. The fire and police all showed up to see what was wrong. The determination?

The determination was that certain amount of ventillation is always needed for a healthy living environment. So, what can anyone learn from this? What one learns is that one ought not create a situation where there is no free flow of air in a closed container. The free flow is needed at times to allow for the living environment to return to healthy condition.

I suppose if I were so inclined I could rewrite this whole part here, make it something worth reading. But I have to measure some pieces of wall board and screw them up onto the wall. And I'd like to get all of this done by the end of the week.

So I hope that there isn't any news that pulls me away from doing the work that I need to do so that I can sound off about current events and put my two cents in.

Two cents, if there were actually made out of copper, are a pretty valuble thing. The US used to have a Two Cent piece. It was a pretty little coin. The value of it today? If we had a coin of the same size and weight? Not much.

I'm not putting any words in Mr. Lincolns mouth.

I've suggested having beams coming from Lincolns eyes to highlight words, and perhaps to create a dissolve. But I'm sure that I saw that first in the original Godzilla only it was Godzilla and not Mr. Lincoln who had beams coming out of his eyes. If I provided that effect here I just be ripping off a classic. Well, I guess that is what all artists do so what am I waiting for? Oh, ya, I'm more of an engineer than an artist. Why can't someone be both? Why can't some people stop talking about themselves?



   The inflection seemed to mean
 that he was being mean
     and wanted to cause a scene
   didn't care if he were green.

   Get your wings on.
     they keep telling him that.
 but we dont' need anymore angels
    someone else kept harping on that.

  Who do you listen to?
   who do you listen to?
    who, oh who, do you listen 
                          to?


  The markup was flawed.
 It's 'Rock Star' not 'God'.

" Fly your biplane upside down.
    Fly your biplane upside down.
 I don't want to look around.
   I don't care what falls to the ground
      I don't care how loud a sound."

  There on the pavement
    near the cookie cart
 the house frau was back
    from the sushi-mart
 baby in the seat
   politician meet and great.

 "Look it the funny plane
     two wings, that is insane
    it's flying upside down
 six feet below the ground "

  "Baby, baby, 
        what you say
   makes no sense
     anyway.
  If you make up
    things untrue
 how can I keep 
   loving you?
  If you lie and cheat and steal
 how can we keep it real?
   Baby, baby, 
      of course I will
   keep it real, keep it still
       I go on loving you
  doesn't matter what you do."

  But if someone were going to
     forcefeed me that kind of
    line 
     she looks over her heart brake 
and decides if it is real
   he doesn't come home?
 Was there a problem at the protest?
 why do you have to have such a big mouth
     and be such a big important fish to fry?
 She's in love with her big bear of a trucluant guy.
     Free Speach?
    Free Speach?
   It costs a very lot.
 Go over to the graveyard at the big school
     and walk amoung the graves.
  
   We can not unbury those dead.
     No one will bring the 18 yearold 
   from Bunker Hill to Peterboro.
   No one ever tells about his mom,
     how she felt,
   what went wrong a 
         bullet in his head?
     Freedom isn't Free
     It costs alot.

 They don't need any stinking badges.
 We don't need any more martyrs.

August Tomatoes

In the back yard!

Praise the Lord for insight given!



Fix your self and the world gets fixed around you


as an example . . . I have tried to do some introspective things as I come into awareness of my own flaws, and recognize the way I act and correct my self and make a better narrative for myself and for others.




you raise me up
from far away
when a memory
of you
lifts me!



Somethings never change
nothing need stay the same
ah, but on a website
the constant change
 is kind-of the point . . . 

change without continuity and tradition is often very hard to manage for those thrust into it. And thus the frame of things gives a place for the change to happen. If you violate that idea then you are coming up with something completely different and maybe no one will want to see your new idea, or use your great, new venue, because it's too far out, and very far away from what they currently care about. It's a nether or a meta and it's merely for a lark? Or does it become the next big thing? As fun as graphics are (CGI) and animation, and making a world to fly around in (like minetest, which is easy when you learn how) ultimately such a meta is a hollow place. It's a distraction during the season of gaming. It allows one to brush up on geometry and math, and architectural design, it gives people training in computer languages, it allows someone to make some graphical ideas, and pass a few hours of time every few days or so . . .

To live within such a realm really isn't possible.

Poem Shards

just who reads, who writes these poems?
off a mountain road the poet roams
but only in a poem.

Realizing that the empty 
is empty
and not needing anything there.

just who shows up and for what?
I'm lonely or am alone or what does it matter?
driving off towards the nothing
walking along the nowhere path
up high
sure, it's a pretty view
but seen it, done it, jaded, back to the air port
he flew
his fantasy of happy vacation was through.


The deep snow.

The deep snow. She doesn't know how deep. She didn't think about it. Depth of snow no one know in rills and hollows where you shouldn't go when the storm is fierce and the night is cold even you shouldn't be so bold. poem is from 2012 short story titled Blizzard Baby The morning light is hued in cold awareness. Warming in the sun the bunny explores the snow covered lawn. The tracks melt by mid morning. Bunny doesn't know what the song means, anyway. This giant bubble that we call awareness?

Coders Edge

served to you by:

Fedora 40

After 40 different versions what can one say about it anymore? It's installed in all my systems, a day earlier. There are a few minor issues, but no show stoppers.

I did some stuff with lvm to resize a root area. That took a very long time. It's on a machine that maybe just should be retired . . .


April 22, 2024

Fedora Core 38 beta

Ya, I decided to load Fedora Core 38 Beta about a month ago, and this machine kept shutting down . . . I think I finally fixed it. Tomorrow is the big release day for the Fedora Core 38. My production workstation is still running FC37. I don't know if I'll jump right on it right away. . .

my server is still resetting, or maybe I have it fixed. I decided to just remove plasma-desktop, as I don't use it. The journals were giving all kinds of errors with that, and I think that might have been the issue, conflicting with the gdm that I do use. Worst case I'd just go to runlevel 3 but, as I said in another column, I don't really even know if anyone views these pages anyway.

My production box would upgrade but the dnf says it would downgrade grum and associated tools, and that's never a good thing to do. I'm just not going to do it! anyway I'll check tomorrow when the offical release is and probably do it then. If I'm in the mood.

So now I've run every version of Fedora serving this website! that's a long time.


April 17, 2023 8:28 PM EST


here is from a year ago:

Fedora Core 36 beta

It took some time to figure out how to defeat the new screensaver built in, but I was able to. It's the biggest downside to the new Gnome.

I set the keybindings to something I don't use, and then put in a custom keybinding to use the old tool.

There are other minor things that annoy too, like the restoration of a deleted file that I always have to delete again on every FC core upgrade. The file is name camera-shutte.oga. It's in /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo

1:12 AM EST 9 April, 2022 

At the precipice of coding.

a mountain trail often has a place with a great view and a perilous fall if you wonder just a bit too far to one side of the trail. It's called a precipice. It's not a scary place. It's a safe place that one passes through.


OK, so I've done an update to FC34.

the biggest issue was . . . . drum roll . . .a lock up of gnome.

and if i clicked on the activities button I would need to reload (log out log back in).

I was able to run stuff without that, and thus determined a list of files that might need to be removed. I did as full reinstall of gnome as such:

dnf reinstall gnome

then I did a

dnf list installed |grep fc33

which gave me a list of files to consider uninstalling.

from that I got the following:

first odd issue:

sudo was not at first working! I had to install it! I kept the configuration file so I have my preferences still set up.

dnf install sudo                                                                                                                                                                          dnf reinstall gnome-*                                                                                                                                                                       dnf reinstall kde*                                                                                                                                                                          dnf reinstall NetworkManager*                                                                                                                                                               dnf remove gnome-screensaver                                                                                                                                                               dnf remove gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons-20.04.0-2.fc33.noarch                                                                                                                       dnf remove xorg-x11-xkb-extras-7.7-33.fc33.x86_64                                                                                                                                          dnf remove compat-openssl10-1:1.0.2o-11.fc33.x86_64                                                                                                                                        dnf remove mozjs60-60.9.0-7.fc33.x86_64                             

there are still some fc33 packages, (I also looked for fc32 packages, anything older that was gnome)

sudo dnf list installed |grep fc33
biber.noarch                                         2.14-4.fc33                            @fedora               
gamin.x86_64                                         0.1.10-37.fc33                         @fedora               
libgta.x86_64                                        1.0.9-5.fc33                           @fedora 

if removing a package also removed large numbers of other packages, I left it. For each of the few that I did remove, I always would make sure by reading what would happen before agreeing to the transaction.

now the gnome-shell is working and it doesn't lock up. So which of the packages that I removed made the difference? I am not sure.

and so after just a few short hours of install, I've got my system working in away that seems normal.

the new gnome shell moves the icons to the bottom of the screen.

I find gnome-shell to be annoyingly poppy at times. I tend to do things rapidly, and all the popping can be nauseating.

It is helpful to learn how to use dnf. I've found that the reverse history stuff works as long as you haven't made too many changes. It's a dicey, though, to try and go back to an older revision but I did it ONCE. Next time it didn't work out so well. AT that point it was installing dnf and yum from rpms.

and I had success. It's the kind of thing that when you know how to do it . . .

but there was one other trick that I needed and it was a scary way to reset a password and I did discover how to do it. I'm not sharing that one (barely remember) it's like these things exist in a nether, and it's best to . . . let the knowledge fade unless you need it. It's too scary to dwell in that space.

anyway, gnome shell is working. It's not flighty and hanging up. And all it took was to remove the old packages of gnome that might conflict with it. And now I can continue with my review.
