Very nice.

NASA: Never a straight answer (Hebrew for beguile, deceive)

They never got any from the moon, all the ones they claimed never passed testing.

"Government is a disease masquerading as its own cure." - Robert LeFevre

Examples: 1987: NASA’s James Hansen predicted that the world would be 3C warmer by 2020. Wrong! Global Average Temperature was about 0.44C higher in 2020. 1978: The concentration of atmospheric CO2 to double by 2020. Wrong! Levels increased by 23%. 2009: China to cut emissions 40-45% below 2005 level by 2020; India to cut 20-25%. Wrong! 2020 Reality: China’s 2020 emissions ~85% HIGHER than 2005; India’s ~150% HIGHER. 2008: Snow on Kilimanjaro to vanish by 2020. Wrong! 2020 reality: snow still there. 1986: EPA (US Environmental Protection Agency) predicts 2 feet of sea level rise for Florida by 2020. Wrong! 2020 Reality: Sea level rise + subsidence in South Florida since 1986 has been less than 4 inches. 2000: By 2020 snow will be so unfamiliar, people won’t know how to deal with it. Wrong! 2020 Reality: It still snows in the UK, the Met Office still forecasts snow and in 2020 Scotland boasted of its fleet of snow trucks being ready for action. 2000: Global warming will ruin Pacific Island Nations economies by 2020. Wrong! 2020 Reality: As of 2019, Tuvalu, for example, was enjoying an unprecedented 6-year economic growth spurt. 2004: Pentagon says climate change-caused resources shortages to cause global war by 2020. Wrong! 2020 Reality: Nations largely at peace. Planet only at war with Coronavirus. 2013: Arctic ice-free by 2020. Wrong! 2020 Reality: The prediction was 3.9 million square kilometres wrong at the annual minimum in September 2020. 2009: Glaciers gone from Montana Glacier National Park by 2020. Wrong! 2020 Reality: What are gone are the signs claiming Glacier National Park glaciers would be gone by 2020. Mat 5:18

For the first time, individual hackers could afford to have home machines comparable in power and storage capacity to the minicomputers of ten years earlier, Unix engines capable of supporting a full development environment and talking to the Internet. -Eric S. Raymond

I love it! I something like that on my "about page" http://crn.hopto.org/about/

Move your mouse around and it will follow you.

“The President in particular is very much a figurehead — he wields no real power whatsoever. He is apparently chosen by the government, but the qualities he is required to display are not those of leadership, but those of finely judged outrage. For this reason the President is always a controversial choice, always an infuriating but fascinating character. His job is not to wield power, but to draw attention away from it. On those criteria, Zaphod Beeblebrox is one of the most successful Presidents the Galaxy has ever had — he has already spent two of his ten presidential years in prison for fraud.” -Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy http://crn.hopto.org/media/#government

I do not care what other think about it. I care what God's words say.

History, as such, turns out to be man groping forward, killing his fellow man in an effort to attain a form of government where he will not have to kill his fellow man. -Peter S. Ruckman" http://crn.hopto.org/#kjv

Yes, more fires, more environmental damage from Lithium mining, more lies... If they can not operate without government subsidies, then they should not be in business. Musk is a front: http://crn.hopto.org/media/biography/#musk

“He climaxed his teaching career as New York State Teacher of the Year after being named New York City Teacher of the Year on three occasions. He quit teaching on the OP ED page of the Wall Street Journal in 1991 while still New York State Teacher of the Year, claiming that he was no longer willing to hurt children. Later that year he was the subject of a show at Carnegie Hall called “An Evening With John Taylor Gatto,” which launched a career of public speaking in the area of school reform, which has taken Gatto over a million and a half miles in all fifty states and seven foreign countries." http://crn.hopto.org/archives/john-t-gatto/

“When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.” ― Frédéric Bastiat, French economist http://crn.hopto.org/media/#government

“Tyranny is the exercise of some power over a man, which is not warranted by law, or necessary for the public safety. A people can never be deprived of their liberties, while they retain in their own hands, a power sufficient to any other power in the state.” - Noah Webster

ZFS is the best volume management solution I have used. It's performance and ease of use rocks.

If you go to the hardware store, you can purchase ethyl alcohol. The same kind that is in booze. If you drink it, it will kill you or cause serious bodily harm. Why, because it has been “denatured”. This is a nice term for poisoned. The government does this so that you don’t buy it to drink and not pay the taxes. They would rather kill you!

Next up, go to the drug store and purchase iodine or hydrogen peroxide. Look at the label, “denatured”. Why because they do not want you to have cheap effective medicine, they would rather kill you.

This is the same people who want to vaccinate you with toxins, mRNA technology, and fetal tissue extract, you know, “for your health”!

So let me put this very simply: Don’t take medical, nutritional, or ANY other kind of advice from them. Stop filling your heads with lies from all forms of media and entertainment. Read and learn for yourself. Take responsibility for yourself and love ones. The alternative is to be culled (killed), like cattle.

They want you sick, stupid, and scared. Don't be! http://crn.hopto.org/health/

Very well done, looks nice.

If truth can’t be challenged, it isn’t.

Man does not live by bread alone, you need a little toast. -Biff Rose

I worked on Tandy Business Systems with Xenix, 8" floppies, oh the power. I have used many flavors over the years. Also played with Mac's and Windows 3.0 to XP. I prefer a Unix/Linux environment any day. It is a toolkit, designed for you to "glue the components you need" to do the job. A different approach.

It (Unix) allows me to do what I want, the way I want it, when I want it. Its free, powerful, not a resource pig, and once you master the shell, you can do just about anything you can think of. It puts the power in the users hands.

I started with vi, a long time ago. I do not remember when I switched, but it was most likely when I start using Linux. I will stay with it until I die at this point. http://crn.hopto.org/unix/#vim

Never quoted once in the Bible, it is from Egypt about 200 after the NT was written.

Good topic for sure. I did not write this bit of code, but I use it a good bit. Adds a little shell animation to jazz things up: http://crn.hopto.org/unix/spinit.html

# Note that it uses the same mechanism.

Yes, and people still use the death care system (I call it government assisted suicide). People still vote, etc... It's an IQ test with a death penalty.

This was a nice find. I don't need X much, but when I do, it works. It also supports a potable install. http://crn.hopto.org/unix/

This is the Unix philosophy: Write programs that do one thing and do it well. Write programs to work together. Write programs to handle text streams, because that is a universal interface. -Doug McIlroy
