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.

Rule number one of flash floods: still water runs deep. You can't drive through a filled up gorge. And sometimes roads are build with a filled in gorge. The locals didn't understand the hydrology at the time, and the lay of the land demands that the water flow in a certain way. And the Earth will shift, cracking open, thrusting over. Sometimes this happens deep wtihin the Earth through some kind of process that isn't really fully comprehended. In any case a filled in gorge can wash away, along with the road on top of it, due to the force of floods. And thus you drive through what looks like calm water. You know that the road is right below, right? But the road is not there anymore. It's washed away with all the fill that was used to cover the gorge.
Of course on televison they show people driving through, like it's all OK, like they are sure that the road is still there, and maybe they are.
Some years back in a New Hampshire town during a period of heavy rain a dam breech caused a huge and unexpected flood in a town. A bunch of people died. In one case it was a young couple in a subaru or that kind of rig, one that had a lot of good years and has a few bad ones left that you see the young adults driving in the hills of New Hampshire (and where ever there are hills and people that like to drive safe during hte snow. In any case there was a flagger at the bridge, Probably with lights, and these young adults did not heed the warning to turn around but instead fled off into the fog to cross the bridge that was not there anymore. Their car got thrown into the wash, down into the drink. If you go to this place it's a typical valley and a typical New Hampshire valley town. Bucallac in the summer when the water's clean, a fun Summer spot that is doable in the Winter as well, close enough to everything, but well enough off the beaten track that it's not a common pass through, people don't typically go there except to be there, or to see it. There aren't any grocery stores. There might be a small family store, maybe a few more businesses with Summer hours, and maybe some snow-mobile mechanics with a sign by a carriage house, the entrance is around the back. That business has Winter hours. Probably just go bang the knocker.
In any case it always puzzled me why these two who perished didn't obey the officer and turn back, but instead went forward to try to pass over the flood, but the bridge was already in the river then. That young couple perished as well. It occured to me that perhaps these two were holding (holding what?) and thought that the stop was a 'drug enforcement' roadblock, or a drunk check. And, drive it like you stole it, I'm not going back to Hverhill (I think that is where a drug offender with priors would have to go back to in NH), the young man . . . in stead . . . made the rebel choice to just run for it. But there wasn't any drunk check, and there wasn't any one seeing if the drivers were high or if the occupents had prior warrents
I don't give you details of this because I've fictionalized the two who perished (there were actually 6, if my memory serves, who perished that night). I don't know their reputation, if the guy (or the woman with him) had priors, or even if their car was indeed a Subaru (something like that. I could have been an old Toyota, the frame cracked and wagging, but still it runs like a top and will run the mud off in the low parts of a field and some day, when it stops forever, say the back half snaps off of it, you can still call the guy and he'll come haul it away and pay for it as metal scrap, you'll get a couple hundred dollars or more. At the end of it.
After that Idon't hear so much about road blocks for drug checks. Maybe my novelization of those events is close to what really happened. And as far as it being a dam breech? What is the liability in that? Sometimes things that happen in New Hampshire don't get well reported. So if it were a dam breach the insurance companies would be nosing around.
Any way, sad details. My main point today: if there are floods, and the road is now in a river remember: rivers cause errosion. The road might not still be where it was even minutes earlier. That part of the road may have broken up into hunks and parts and gravel as the flood rushes through. The best choice: don't drive through deep water without knowing the topography of what's beneath the flow. Unless you are in a boat, or an Amphibicar you may end up washed down into the flow, rolling over and drowned.
I've got some new territory. Here is one: Game Sculpture.
It's not much but these things grow. There is more too. I'll post more when I get to it.
All curses be broken! May there only be blessings blessings for you blessings for everybody.

We sure do need a billion dollar idea.
The tolerance of alternative views has waned in much of the media. The people put -up with a clamp down on ideas. They go into the face-crook jungle thnking that they 'connect' with 'friends', but much of it is virtual. They've been botted. unfriend the intollerance of jingoistic ideologues.

It's August. People are harvasting their tomatoes. Other people don't have any tomatoes. The chipmunks will eat every single one while it's still very tiny. You need a fortified and fenced in garden.

Greetings from tree shaded yard!
Praise The Lord for insight given!
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.

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

The deep snow. She doesn't know how deep. She didn't think about it.

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 . . .

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 ESThere is from a year ago:
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

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.
