Bash Aliasses (update:changed gio trash to trash-cli)

Some of you might have notice that when you run gio trash inside a bind-mounted folder, it fails with:   theirs seems no fix for this in term s of gio trash, however , trash-cli has no problem doing this, its not as versatile as gio, (only does trashing|restoring|cleaning) but it does trashing really well,     so i changed the aliasses in my bashrc alias file to this command. Here is the updated version of the file: #!/usr/bin/env bash # ##################

Social media from the perspective of a partial outsider

I do have a mostly inactive Instagram profile, and a reddit account but that's about it. Still every day I see lots of people spend hours on their screens browsing either instagram (mostly the reels function) as well as TikTok. Honestly I get how someone could spend hours on a screen (I am doing that right now) but like, those two are completely different. This forum is a peaceful text board while the TikTok feels much more hyperactive of sorts. Basically all posts have either that one annoying

I'm tired of ChatGPT stuff

Honestly wherever I go I see these stupid posts about ChatGPT. Bunch of people that didn't know about OpenAI's api that has existed for years now are suddenly amazed by a lobotomised chatbot. It's not hating on trendy things, I am just genuinely tired of it.

Redemption for a Remaster.. (RDR1 as RDR2 DLC)

HI WWW First some music:     I was going to write about MR-VR headsets.. but this thought about RDR has been rattling around in my head for a long time partner.   Some Background The fanbase cried out, like wolves far from the night campfire.. for RDR1 on PC, but near going on ten years..

Thoughts on the Filmora controversy

As someone with a reputation for catching onto things pretty late, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that it took me a week to hear about the whole ordeal with Filmora 12 and lifetime licenses. For those of you even more out-of-touch than me, here’s a brief summary:   Until 2020, Filmora (a video editing software you probably know for their infinite amount of search engine optimization articles claiming that it’s the perfect software for everything and it’ll make your estranged relative

I've had it with YouTube Shorts

I don't use YouTube on my iPhone very often, and when I do, I'm almost always terrified by what awful new features they've added that'll inevitably be even more detrimental to the user experience when they end up on the desktop site. YouTube Shorts was and still is a perfect example. Now, before we get into the meat of this rant burger, (wow, I refuse to believe I'm even capable of writing such an awful sentence.) I want to go over precisely why vertical video is an awful thing that real

Day Thirty Four - It's The Final Countdown!

Well here we are, the final 24 hours are here, now, it feels as if it was only yesterday when I was getting this event started and the writing the first blog post. It always seems to go so fast, and I'm not going to lie I'm somewhat happy to see the end so I can start sleeping at a normal time again!    miker07 is sitting on that throne, it has to be said he is still giving it his all right down to the last day. He takes the rank of first with 3,611,221,951 points. Our green friend how

So here we are, just two days left of the event and it is looking like we aren't going to see any major last minute upsets this event like those of the kind we have seen in previous events.    miker07 is sitting on the throne with 3,495,956,728 points, he is doing incredibly well, seeing almost three and one half billion points so far, we will have a new high score. But as with all high scores, it will be beaten... maybe sooner, maybe later, but it will someday be topped. Shlouski is

Day Thirty Two - Move Along, Nothing To See Here

Well today has been a quiet one, not much to see on the ranks so let's just get right into that.    miker07 is the clear king it is completely decided by this point. He is sitting on the throne with 3,422,734,677 points. Shlouski is certainly going to be taking hone the silver for this event taking the rank of second with 3,101,236,510 points. Mxyzptlk is sitting in third place, we see him take the rank with a large margin either side of him. He takes the rank with 1,937,710,515 points

Day Thirty - The Fallen King Reaches New Heights

So the final days are upon us, and we have to be thinking about just how many of our participants will cross the billion point threshold. By my rough calculations we have one more pretty much certain and then we have Alex, who is cutting it close but could join that elite club.    miker07 seems to have had a little trouble today, that or he's already on his victory parade by this point. He takes the throne with 3,219,410,343 points. Shlouski, the failed king, has passes another amazing

WEll it seems the battle for the throne has fizzled out, it is not all but impossible for our green friend to take the throne. So please join in with me... Long Live The King! He is the first person ever to pass three billion points during a folding event.    miker07 is the new king, there is no way he can be anything but the new King, currently taking the throne with 3,000,195,970 points, it was looking like our green friend could make a challenge, but in the end it seem Shlouski who

Day Twenty Six - The Battle Rages

WEll we can see that our little green friend Shlouski has had an amazing day and this could be the start of him retaking the throne. But for him to maintain such vast productions rates is not cheap and it will be interesting to see how miker07 responds.    miker07 continues to sit on the throne with 2,759,803,985 points, an incredible total so far. It seems he is very much the man to beat and even when he is pretty safely at the top his production has not skipped a beat. Shlouski who i

Day Twenty Five - Another Billion Point User

Well it looks like our green friend Shlouski had a good day today, but it seems he will not be retaking the throne without some extra power. Stay tuned to see if he can manage it or if he will be relegated to a lackluster silver place.    miker07 is looking more and more, as time goes on like he will be one to be crowned when all is said and done. He is sitting on the throne with 2,631,603,281 points. Only time will tell if Shlouski will be able to take the on the new king or if he wil

If we are to see the rise of the fallen king, we will have to see substantial changes in output in the very near future.    miker07 has had an incredible day today, he has passed the old all time high seen in any other folding event of date and i showing no signs of slowing down.

Day Twenty Two - A Slow Day

Have to say, people are dropping like flies... interesting, we have seen a pretty low production today of less than one billion points. I have to say you guys are terrible at this lmfao. It is supposed to go up not down!   miker07 is unsurprisingly the person we see sitting on the throne, he takes the number one rank with 2,268,825,107 points. As the day continue to pass we can see that Mr. miker is looking to sail through unchallenged. There is only one person who even remotely has a

Day Twenty One - Another Day, Another Billion

We are now into the second half of the event, and this is the time where things usually slow down, the points keep coming but the ranks are much more cumbersome to navigate and big changes to production rates are much less common. With that said, we are right about the perfect time for people to snag new GPUs, between the new Nvidia cards and the vast number of second hand cards to be had there is still much that can change.    miker07 is the one sitting on the throne, he takes the fir
