April

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

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.

The Message Column

Convention Coverage

Theater of the fraudelent democracy.

Wikileaks email dump. It's so stupid that it seems staged.


The coronation
 of the
Harridan Queen
of the 
zombie democracy
of a captive party
are horror movies any stranger than this?

Theater of the totally rediculous.

DNC staffer apologizing for the content of his emails . . . huh? You think they'd just say, no , it's all concocted. I guess they know it's theirs, so they own it. But . . . seriously, the dude should resign and go dress in sackcloth. Spend a year or two at a religious retreat. Beg the Kings of the Universe (The king of all media?) to free them from the bondage of their own exceptional cupidity for power, and for being shepherds of a fraudulent process!

Debbie does Philadelphia

Seriously, Debbie? Under the bus or on the bus? You should just be missing in action by now, but safe on your exit tour. I suggest the Jersey Shore. You can get there very easily by banging over one of the big bridges that span the Delaware River (that giant river that is right near the convention site, and their 8 ft high four mile long fence, imported from Juarez? It could be. ), take the local highway to The Atlantic City Expressway and head down to the shore. It will be very nice on the beach this week down the shore. July beach, I recommend Sea Isle City, Ms Wasserman Schultz.

Theater of the tripping.

The visions blur, the intent of the piece morphs to another out of control maven of the power deluded.

It's too bad that the mavens of power do so sorry a woman weep, upon this minion crowd.

"get me my f-in diet soda you Alex-jones lookilikely likely, you phat phudgeka." Ah, theater of the trippin'

You can't write it as mean as they really come off. Alex looked like he was just high as a kite and expecting some good nurtured inter-channel rivalry, like they were in an episode of WKRP in Cincinnati, and Alex was good host and . . . well the Young Turks were being Jerks. Someone, allegedly, spit in Jones' face. That is really kind of awful and no one should ever have to endure that. No one. I go by the motto of 'clean water even for your enemies' which, if you have that attitude will mean that very few would dare consider you as opposed to their well being. IN this world don't we all really 'just want to get along'. So it doesn't help when media people act out their . . . what can we call it? I could use the word 'hate', but it probably wasn't that. Still, you can call it assault. I don't think that they would carry it that far, what would be the use? But in the litigious world when dealing wiht litigious people you meet like with like. I think, in the least, there would need to be some kind of mitigation so that they are all keeping it in the barnyard. The barnyard people need order in the stalls, in the sty, in the waller, up where the cattle are. We don't want to think that there really is some kind of mean streak for real, that people really are that wrapped up in ideology that they would spit on someone who, really, is just playing the roll of ubber skeptic. He plays with what works. He is a show man. He was loving life, I could see it in his demeanor, and someone spit in his face and called him a really mean (really really mean, oh, so very very mean) thing.

But if you said it lovingly, like a real drunken late night she-beast of a loving wife, gruff, all the way. She could call her hubby that an it would be their twisted kind of love call. But when you don't love someone, when you use them as a mock for all that you hate in the world, like what so many do to Alex Jones, presenting him as if he is someone other than who he is, a kind of shock-jock Johnny Feevor for skepticism and Art Bell AM midnight to 5 AM sensibilities, or Acid Television: a radio personality aka Howard Stern of Right Wing Texas. Someone who is intentionally outrageous for a purpose, and a skeptic, as the knee jerks: because of his super mystic mind, just like Howard has, Alex dove in head first, like Carlos Castanado leaping off a mountain top in Acid fiction, Alex dove in head first into the Niagara fall like churning waters of American politics by being an ubber skeptic and always contemplating the worse case, but kind of knowing that people can't really be that twisted and mean . . . but trying also to give the Saint Paul message: also what others in Talk Radio do too. And fans of this genre? They get it.

So spitting on the Isaiah of Texas talk? it's kind of a stupid thing to do, and seemingly hateful, but Alex is a big boy and he can take it. Hopefully when they are all sober then can talk it over.

When you're all sober
you should talk it over
don't wait for October
with the ice on the clover

But mean girl, calling a stranger a Pat Puck, she really needs that anger management class. She needs it. Obesity is a serious disability and along with it comes a lot of shame. It can spiral into a dark depressive dissipation. So mean girl needs to sincerely apologize.

I get that whole deal of mean, it can display a twisted kind of affection, but never-the-less, affection of a strange kind. If you were playing drunken volly ball you might pull out that personality, scoffing, mocking, questioning people's abilities, taunting them with derision. Some call that sporting. or pass-out Frisbee, (which I recommend for you, Debbie Wasserman Shultz, when you get to Sea Isle City, whcih is stunning this time of the year, the oceaen air, a true paradise that's why we tell the world how much New Jersey sucks because we want to make everyone think it relaly does, Deb, but for you, it will be fun. You can duck out of the city and go down the shore.

Debbie does Sea Isle City


Hey, I love to hear the ocean roar, 
why not a woman? 
and when you are in Philly,
 and you want to hear the ocean roar
 just go down the shore. 
Down the shore
 to hear the ocean roar.
 Love everyone, 
no one more.
 (more than another?).
When your in Philly,
 and you want to roar,
 take a bus down the shore. 
Down the shore
 you can hear the ocean roar.

 

Because, Debbie, in Philly, all those who believed that yours was a party that was working even for your own members, at least for your own members. We all kind of knew that the government has become a yummery of specialness for the well connected, and we deluded that Democrats have a seat at the banquet for everyone. But what do we find? You have no place at the table for those who aren't on the special list. You worked against the other candidates after shutting them out of the discussion. And left a trail of email which your own staffers have already apologized for. Debbie! Should you not have done a better job of hiding the evidence? Or are you just a scape goat, and you don't do IT and have no idea what a mouse is or how to use a draw program, or how to surf for siding vendors on-line and pay for transactions with pay-pal money that you make from selling things that you buy cheeply at a thrift store, the kind of place where Democrats imagine a lot of their voters shop. Or how to buy a gas grill on line, have it installed, or, Debbie, you can order all the fixings of a wild bash, grills and all, and have it all shipped to your Air BNB some where close by to Sea Isle City, set up for you, a giant catered bash, and skip the whole Philly convention, invite all your friends, and don't incite the riotous crowd of upset Bernie fans. By the way, most of Philly will want to be down the shore this week, anyway. So it's no slight on Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love. An awesome place, to suggest that you forgo the convention and proceed to the beach.

And as for the Bernie fans, I love the man but I'm not a fan of his politics. I am not a fan like that, of Bernie in that I don't want a Socialist as president. But if I were, than I'd choose him and not Hillary. You see, Bernie is someone who I've known about for years and kind of followed and heard all about him. Never felt it was anything more than, to use a cleché, "Bernie being Bernie". As a matter of fact, the first time I heard that form of langugage, 'so-and-so being so-in-so' it was someone talking about Bernie maybe 25 years ago. You, know, all Politics is Local and Bernie was a local boy where I sometimes hang around. Champlain Valley. I recommend you go there too, Debbie.

We can hope for real progress of soul, which is the only kind that is important, in those who run the Democratic party. And I don't believe that Bernie supporters are ever really riotious, maybe out there with their revelorous chanting. But, from my sight, they are mostly a non-violent crowd. So why the myth that they aren't? Do yourselves a favor and talk to old girl and get her to admit that she did very wrong, and that due to how much the public loaths and despises her and wants her in prison that she can never really be the president, at least not one that anyone respects. So she ought to realize it and be a mensch and stop with the nonsense that her candidacy is viable. She is unelectible in any legitimate democratic process and Bernie Sanders is the rightful candidate of the Democratic Party, and I say this, to cause division? Or is it the truth? Or what is truth and does it matter?

What does matter? Hillary is old and needs to retire. She has many good years and being president will hasten the ill health that plauges people her age. Throw open the convention and nominate someone else.

Even though she might think that it will be good to be the president, this may be the worst thing that she could hope for.

Was I sad to leave myself stuck inside my yesterdays?
Inside of mind we can sometimes let the winds howl.
Windy Howls
deep within your mind
where there is no place to stay, and only
moving forward, 
onward
to the safe place.

You're there in a moment.
When the calm comes, it brings you rest
and all the troubling vapors
dissipate within the great light
darkness no more.

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

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? How could it have been formed? Seemingly hollow, it's filled up with you reading this and wondering where does this idle poet get his idle hours to spew out this bubble web of hollowness? 🚦 🚧 🚨 🚩 🚪 🚫 🚬 🚭 🚮 🚯 🚰 🚱 🚲 🌛 🌑 🌒 🌓 🌔 🌕 🌖 🌗 🌘 🌙 🌚 🌛 🌜 🌝. 🚤 🚥 sometimes there is beauty within the fragments . . . 🌜🌜🌜🌝🌛🌛🌛 Sprongg . . . onng . . . ongg ga Her tired morning seems more like poetry than anything you can find on a blog.

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 . . .

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.

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

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.
