I did reinstall #PCLinuxOS this year, so lib64dvdcss2 must no longer be included in the main ISO.

2024-12-26 22:18:52 UTC

My movie adventure today:
I knew I wanted to just sit, relax, drink #Coffee, and watch a movie, but which movie?
Searched the streaming services.... saw Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, lined it up, and went to make my beverage.
Came back and thought "nah... maybe later, I'm more in the mood for scifi".
Got the notion of watching Blade Runner - Directors Cut. Checked: not on streaming.
Remembered I had the DVD. Noticed Final Cut sitting next to it. Grabbed it.
#PCLinuxOS and VLC would not play the movie. Wondered if it was a protection thing, so grabbed Directors Cut and tried it. Same.
In software I also tried MPV and Kaffeine. No joy. #VLC #MPV #Kaffeine
Got fed up, so watched Beetlejuice #Beetlejuice anyway. Actually, a great sequel and funny movie.
Afterwards really wanted to fix my system, so dived into forums etc. Discovered I did not have lib64dvdcss2 installed.
That fixed it.
#lib64dvdcss2 #dvdcss2
Seems like I shall be watching Blade Runner - Final Cut later.

Well, I eventually got ready for work, and went out to my car.
Ruthven the Rav4 would not start!

I shall probably purchase a new battery.

Monday 06:55
It has been a busy morning already:
a) Android phone had an update.
b) Both the main space and back bedroom humidifiers needed refilled.
c) Kettle needed filled.
d) Checked on the dryer from last evening. Towels need a Freshen Up.
e) 7 day pill box needed filled.
I shall be going to my #FoodBank office today, then shall be off for 6 days, going back on Monday 30th.
Hoping to check on the COOP levels today, unless any fires need put out.
You may have noticed that I did not Toot on Mastodon at all yesterday. Sometimes that happens.
Friday and Saturday were quite social for me, with the work Holiday party, hearing of the passing of a friend & joining a community in mourning, and spending time with friends from all over the world at #Podcrawl.
Yesterday, Sunday, I stayed home all day and kept online quiet, apart from maybe Telegram,
Arianna & I did fellowship with CenterPointe Christian #Church with their online service. The subject was: "Worship Him - Our Salvation". https://www.youtube.com/live/FM1gYlu2SoQ
I highly recommend listening to the message of this service. So true and powerful in our lives. #Salvation
Looking forward to greeting people to our Christmas Eve services tomorrow at 3:00pm and 4:30pm. We have family and friends coming! Bring yours too!! https://mycpointe.com/events/
The towels were the last batch of 6 baskets of laundry I worked on yesterday. The household got behind again.
Time to make my #Coffee and breakfast sandwich, then head off to work.
Take care of yourself and each other!

So this happened....
Yesterday I was awarded a plaque celebrating my 25 year service with God's Pantry Food Bank.
(Technically it is now 25.46 years)
It has been a blessing and honour to serve with the #FoodBank in assisting our neighbours obtain needed food.
It remains the only job that I have truly loved, but absolutely wish did not exist.

Thursday 07:56
Totally running later than normal today. Woke up a few times overnight, told myself to go back to sleep, and woke up about 07:15.
First task of the day was to go outside and start Ruthven the Rav4. He started fine.
Yesterday, driving home from work, I stopped by the community mailboxes around our street corner, checked our mail, and the car would not start. It was way too cold and dark to try and use the battery pack starter, so I walked home first.
Ate Tomato Bisque Soup and Grilled Cheese Sandwich, put on my big yellow jacket, and walked back to the car. Before I even I tried the battery pack, Ruthven started up ok. Then I went for a 22 mile drive to Midway Town and back.
That was my overnight adventure.
I have another at 09:00 at Kentucky Cardiology where I shall be having an heart stress test.
Not had any caffeine for the past 24 hours, and fasting this morning.
You shall be sure I am going to First Watch straight after for #Coffee and a Traditional Breakfast.
My good friend Mark @npub15qm…ltfu has released a new show on HPR - Hacker Public Radio

Start of 3 day work week, as Arianna & I go on a road-trip on Thursday.
Since her car is in the body-shop we are experiencing the joy of 1 car again. Arianna has an appointment today, so is going to drive me to work and pick me up afterwards.
Yesterday I ran the #FoodBank end of month snapshot reports from home. Today in my office I plan running and sharing the remainder of the reports.
I have one allocated #Bible chapter from #MissionAssist to Type in Tongues before our trip, but should get it done over the next 3 evenings.
My morning #Coffee is made and I grabbed a breakfast bar.

Quantrell Collision Repairs did keep Arianna's Caspian the Camry as we hoped. Looking at a 3 week turnaround.
I did drive myself to work, then Arianna took Ruthven the Rav4.
However, I realised I did not take my computer glasses with me, and my spare set is in the car.
So, my wonderful boss Danielle is going to drive me home, and I am going to work from there.

Arianna will then drive Dragon-in-Law Eva to her cataract eye surgery appointment.
At some point Arianna will pick me up from work, or I will see if I can get a lift.

In Scotland I had a variety of jobs ranging from sales to warehouse to driving.

From https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap :
"Q: Input Leap vs. barrier?
A: Input Leap is a fork of barrier, by barrier's active maintainers. See issue #1414 for more details. Currently, barrier is considered unmaintained."

Checked the #Solus update notes at https://discuss.getsol.us/d/11102-solus-updates-for-week-45-2024
"Additions and depredations
Our barrier package has been deprecated this week. It is no longer maintained or supported upstream, and the core developers have joined the input-leap project. Barrier users will have input-leap installed automatically."
Looked in the software menu and indeed input-leap was there. Upon running the software it connected fine to #Barrier on the desktop. #inputleap

2024-11-09 07:10:20 UTC

Well.... that was a small adventure....
I use and adore the software KVM program #Barrier, which was an open-source fork of Synergy.
In my setup the System76 #PCLinuxOS KDE desktop runs the server and the Razer 15 #Solus Budgie laptop is the client.
Solus informed me of a software update. 113 updates, including kernel, later I rebooted the laptop.
Then the fun began....
Barrier did not autostart.
In fact it was no longer installed.
When I looked for it in the repo Barrier was not there?

Arianna & I dined at OSAKA tonight, with Kristy & Fred.
Our hosts expertly guided us through the Japanese Restaurant menu.
I ended up ordering Steak Teriyaki, with came with Miso Soup, Salad, & Rice. Also Tuna Mango Roll, which is the first Sushi I have ever had. Totally enjoyed.
The Wasabi and Sliced Ginger was excellent.
They don't yet have their alcohol license, but I did enjoy the Strawberry Soda.
A tasty experience with great company.

In this current US political season I have had to unfollow quite a few for being quite fanatical about their candidate / party to the extreme.
On Tuesday 5th November 2024 I shall vote with my own convictions, free will, and conscious. All I believe are God-given to me, but I don't make the mistake that this is a Christian country.

Friday 06:47
Despite 2 naps last evening & a good sleep overnight I feel absolutely exhausted today.
Not feeling great either, so going to make some herbal tea.
I may request to work from home today. Most of what I need to do I could do from here anyway.
Hope you manage to have a good day then enter into a relaxing weekend.

Shingles shot in my right arm.

Teddy Bear frozen latte at Biggby Coffee, Georgetown, KY.
I informed the server of how I was so confused that Coffee Cake does not contain Coffee when I first moved to USA.

Monday 06:21.
No Coffee or Breakfast this morning as I am going for my annual medical physical. Water only this morning!
I shall be particularly interested in my EKG results.
On PTO for the whole day as I shall then be going for Brunch and supply shopping at 'Food and Stuff' aka #Costco. #FoodAndStuff
As I type this the Mastodon instance I am on is having issues, so I shall be posting to FB and copying to the Fediverse later, which will explain a timestamp difference.
Be well, Peter //O\\

Haiku has released version R1/beta5.
I updated #HaikuOS on an Alienware M15x laptop just fine from R1/beta4, despite downloading a ton of software.

Although I have been purchasing excellent music for years from #Bandcamp, helping support artists, I did not realise that A Flock Of Seagulls were on there.
Certainly purchasing their "Aurora Borealis - The Greatest Hits" album at least (well, for a start!).

Watched it all.
Definitely a TV-movie, but not bad for its time.
The shield totally steals the show!
I can see why the film is a cult classic.

Thanks all for your messages.
Napped on and off since getting home, but managed to fall asleep for over 3 hours this afternoon.
Still not feeling the best, but better than I was earlier.
Have made myself a bacon & tomato sandwich, and a mug of ginger peach hot black tea.
Appreciate you all.

Update:
Started feeling quite ill, sick, and shaky during the 08:00 Awaken prayer time.
Afterwards I was prayed over by 2 guys, and I called Arianna to come get me.
It's not often I don't feel well enough to drive myself home.
Dragon-in-Law Eva came with her and drove Ruthven the Rav4 home.
I apologised to the Connections Team of CenterPointe Christian Church for not being able to assist today.
My orders by all are to rest up.

Sunday 06:14 (2/2).
About to make some #Coffee to wake up before heading to #Church for 08:00 #Prayer Time.
Today I am part of the Connection Team, so shall be serving at both the 09:00 and 11:00 services.
Please consider joining us in person at either, or online at the second.

Another #ESO gaming bud of Arianna's arrives today. We shall meet up with him and the first guy this afternoon. Unsure as yet what the plans from that point are going to be.

Sunday 06:14 (1/2).
We had quite a busy day yesterday, including cleaning up the house, receiving a visitor from Virginia who plays #ESO with Arianna, going to brunch at our local Ramseys with him and Eva, touring the Bluegrass, drinks at Biggby Coffee in Georgetown, and supper at El Charro in Lexington.
I napped for 2 hours before working for a few hours late last night on #FoodBank snapshot reports.
