Time to stop using Firefox – now shipping with an Adobe binary blob for supporting the w3c Encrypted Media Extension (EME) DRM scheme. Debian is probably going to patch-remove this from Iceweasel, seems like I'm going to switch from Aurora to Iceweasel beta builds soon…

nah, walls of text like this:

I need some help because I cannot figure out how to get #! running on my box! It doesn't with my current overclock! why on earth is it running on the 3.2 kernel instead of something more bleeding edge like say 3.13! Don't give me the excuse that it's stable, I want the latest. Don't be suggesting that I go to debian testing, it's too hard! And don't be saying go to Arch, it is also too hard! With that in mind, don't suggest Gentoo either, way too hard! I could use slackware, but it takes too much work to setup and get something installed, also way too hard! Don't suggest ubuntu either because all the bloat that comes with it, and it's too hard to install! Rant Rant Rant Rant Rant Rant, Manjaro rant rant rant rant rant rant, Linux Mint rant rant rant rant rant rant rant rant rant rant rant rant rant, Fedora rant rant rant rant rant rant rant rant rant, Red Hat rant rant rant rant rant rant.

keep in mind that this isn't how I actually feel, just trying to show an example angel

Speaking of walls, there's this village I went through once. It was called Wall, up in Northumberland. It had this rather funny sign as you entered the village. I was like, "I know, it's a wall."

Have you ever seen the movie Stardust? Or the book by Neil Gaiman?

"The English village of Wall lies near a stone wall that is the border with the magical kingdom of Stormhold. A guard is constantly posted at a break in the wall to prevent anyone from crossing." smile

Yeah, seen the movie, but never made the connection...

I couldn't find an image of a sign for Street in Somerset, which would have complemented the one for Wall, but I did come across this one while searching big_smile

On the way to go visit my uncle who lives in Alabama, there's this one particular sign right before the Tennessee/Georgia border lol

Since 3 days, I've been getting spam on all email addresses I added to the identities of my public PGP key. One of these spamming asshats (forgive me my rude language) must have run a scraper over a web-accessible PGP server that didn't guard enough against bots. As I have already accumulated quite a number of signatures, it's unlikely that I'll revoke this key in the next years.

It's always because of people like them that we can't have nice things. So sad.

In Stardust: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stardust_%282007_film%29

The English village of Wall lies near a stone wall that is the border with the magical kingdom of Stormhold. A guard is constantly posted at a break in the wall to prevent anyone from crossing. At the beginning of the story, Dunstan Thorn crosses over the wall and into the Wall Market. There, he meets an enslaved princess named Una, who offers him a glass snowdrop in exchange for a kiss. Nine months later, the Wall Guard delivers a baby to Dunstan, saying his name is Tristan.

Just having some fun with a name.

I know that silly!

Una could be a distant relative, with Tristan beginning the bloodline of the 'Stromhold' on this side of The Wall. And of course IF Una is a distant relative you could very well be Prince Unia.

I guess I should bow just to be safe! lol
