I have been attacked by birds. Well, not me personally but my house. They, or at least one bird decided that the vents from the bathrooms, yes both of them and the vent from the laundry room would make a good place for a nest. The bathroom ones were not to bad to clean up, just some twigs and there seemed to be no further damage. The laundry room vent, well it took a bit more work. First, it was probably where they

Some things are best left where they stopped. Sometimes a little sooner. I am hoping that this will contain no spoilers, just in case you haven't seen it yet and think you will still want to when you are done reading this. I saw The Matrix Resurrections last night and I can only say while it was entertaining it was lacking in many ways. At 148 minutes (almost two and a half hours) in length, it is the longest Matrix
Time is an Illusion, a construct, a theoretical thing. And a song. Time - Pink Floyd You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today And then one day you find ten years have got behind you No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun When you are young, the summer lasts forever. Maybe to the point that you are bored and yearning to return to school. Now, a year goes by in what seems like a
Hello darkness, my old friend I've come to talk with you again The Sound of Silence - Simon & Garfunkel Once again we are changing the time. Gone is the morning sun until later. Can we stop this madness and just stick with one of the times?
It is, I assume, that most people who use Python well understand the power of Python. I have known but also just got a reminder. The current project/job I am working on is moving a companies data from one ERP system to a new ERP system. That involves a lot of data and as the current system is around ten years old, it has a lot of data as well as a lot of "dead" data. Dead data? Customers, parts, BOM's and other related
About seven months ago I switched to OpenSuse Tumbleweed as my main OS, not just for me but for everything except my servers, they are still Debian. While not everything has been smooth sailing it has been good enough that I am not looking for something else to run. The biggest issues for me: 1) Updating Errors - Not so much now but almost from the start I was getting errors that required me to update via command line,
While I might be a little late to the Wordle trend but I do enjoy a good word puzzle. After giving it a try (and taking the full six tries to get the word) and seeing people posting about solving the word of the day in three to four guesses, I had to assume they had some help along with some luck. I tried a few different sites but they always seem lacking, partly I think to the number of words they are dealing with. I am
No, I'm not doing Windows updates, I am talking about movies. Why is Hollywood afraid of trying new things? I have no clue but I can only guess that it has something to do with shareholders and profits. What got me going on this topic? Another reboot. This is not about the seemingly never ending sequels, that might just be a different post someday. This time for the movie Firestarter. I can see the possible reason to
So I was working on a post that I thought I would be posting today but it has turned into a bit of a monster so it will be delayed while I get all of the posts related to it done. Yes, plural, there is way too much to fit into a single post without making it a novel. The current working title is called "New Tax Rules for Gig Workers and Maybe FOSS Developers in the US", subtitled, Why you might just want to become a
