Abreast of One of My Favorite Times of Year

Greetings fuzzers, bots, spoofers, DoSers, frauders and phishers! You came to this IP address in good intention I see, as you see me see you see me, just now. I thought I would digest of some story telling of my recent times in Canada. Would you care to ^C a minute and tail -f my_stories ??

What a nightmare hell it's been, saying from the destroyed nerve endings of mine, however my spirit is unwaving and my faith is gaining and God is ever present among the beauty I witness in nature, that He created. I am yet still undergoing loooong term recovery for my last bmx riding accident where I had broken my knee. I had dropped back into my city with only my two feet and a heartbeat, but brand new shoes. A possibly amazing woman and I failed to get along, it came abruptly to an end and I returned to the very (large, populous) place I stated I never wanted to come back to. Why? It is my base camp. I, however, did not actually believe myself when I said I never wanted to come back, I suppose I hid the truth from even myself, that, I just needed to get away from the loud, populous, aggravating, full of rude people place that was and chill. Well that was.. I suppose about this time last year. The other day I thought to think if I'd have any actually good memories from this past time in the city and came to an easy to say nope. With the exception of this time of year. A very important person in my life, a relative of mine, her birthday is actually on the autumn solstice. On the very day. I'd ever wonder, perhaps is it possible, there's an extra blessing in this time of year I feel because from my own lineage, in my today's bones, I know and am with my blood family? Think what you want about that, but, Canada, especially Alberta (where I am, stash that in your spank bank you opsec perverts), is AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL. Not just to the appearance, but to the smell, sensation and casting of memories of years past. Every season in this blessed part of the world has these effects, however, in my opinion none as strong as the dying of the tree growth, the desperation of the insects and the slow, what which takes weeks to creep in, onset of coldness. It sweeps the ground, and causes fog sometimes too. This is a GREAT part of the year fuck all you haters, and shit talkers, and schemers, and losers, and bigots, and manipulators, and ungodly fucks, to hell with you, what's more important? Your pride? Your accomplishment? Your credibility? Or THIS VERY EARTH WE STAND ON, I shall enjoy, my spirit shall not wane, nay, rather increase. I win.

Summary of that last thought above there was I hated the entire time living with that one friend of mine, he's losing it seriously, and might very well pose a serious risk to either somebody or society in general, that attitude is fucking far out in space man, how does a man encourage himself like that with impunity?!

I have moved again from the busy city to a OH SO MUCH quieter place! Albeit there's less here, less is definitely more, after the last 2 years of my life. So you know what time it is? It's time to get back to work. No, not a paycheque, not a virtual digit, not a stake or a say or a right of action in some firmament of control (bank, capitalism), MY WORK. My study of linux, computing, my hobbies of graphic art, system administration, hacking (ethically of course), and doing cool stuff! As always! I'm sure I've mentioned this before!

Please observe: My CodeStats Over The Years From My Text Editor. If you inspected well enough you might've deduced that my most productive times of the year are bone deth winter. Aha! I am already heading with a good amount of momentum this december freeze right now. Just this morning, since yesterday, I installed ProxMox on my M90q and accidentally erased my original EFI partition that would've had crypto information to even use my windows I had just the day before. I sought since yesterday evening to fix it with proxmox that I just installed and a SWEEEEEEET SUCCESSFUL GUIDE on how to use proxmox for GPU passthrough and use a virtual machine hardwired to one of my GPU cards. Geez, I hope I am not writing run on sentences, if I am I sincerely apoligize, but my terminal does not wrap ....

Anyways, and, I wondered if it were possible to make and see that claim that you only lose 3% performance in an environment like ProxMox or Qubes and running windows 10/11 and your games. I am pretty damn sure I will not be arsed to or perfect enough, or diligent enough, to actually purify that judgement myself, but, I learned something REALLY COOL is that my M90q plays Eve Online at 90 fps, when vsync is off, and nothing overheats basically, but, my X250 (another Lenovo but 12.5" screen laptop) just can't jam like that, nowhere's close. I'd be REALLY happy with a solid 22 fps on this laptop. Well. A thing called RDP or Remote Desktop Protocol, a windows thing, I know, gross right, except it can actually beam over my wifi router from my M90q VERY NOT BAD! To my X250 with DDR3 2333GHz and 3rd gen i5 or something. It doesn't cook my board out using rdesktop and it plays eve MUCH BETTER just over my wifi from proxmox and my fully gpu passthrough windows 11 virtual machine. This I achieve but only a few hours ago. I think it's really cool. SO NOW?! I can't tell you, because that's opsec suicide, for one, and for two, y'all would discover that I REALLY HAVE NO LIFE and FAR TOO MUCH TIME on my hands, that I would/could or try doing this. Aha, but, one of my websites, yes, I will write about musicplace.vip battles in another post soon.

Anybody that knnows me on the OPEN AND GLOBALLY FEDERATED FREE XMPP NETWORK knows that I DO and CAN talk A LOT and seemingly to no end. So I bid you a happy Autumn, KEEP YOUR SPIRITS UP, THEY'RE JUST ASSHOLES WITH NO WORTH THAT'S WHY THEY'RE THAT WAY. I'm da champ, you da champ, pce ✌️
PS: oh my GOD do I have so many ideas, I can't wait to show people the cool stuff I'm planning and hoping to do this winter aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!

Here's two screenshots just cuz, related to my endeavors this past 1.5 days:

Later down the river bend

Greetings again open, federated, free, public international network! It is I The Woodcutter and I am enjoying a mighty fine Saturday indeed. I write a post because it's my blogger's duty to post SOMETHING after nearly 3 months of nothing. Nothing includes even significant downtime. About the downtime, I admit, I was lazy and didn't feel like operating a webserver for any more than my XMPP's HTTP Upload feature.

As for what has happened, well, I mentioned previously I was working on an ultra small form factor gaming computer. It's a Lenovo Thinkcentre M90q Gen 2 and I put an AMD Radeon RX 6400 into it and it does indeed play Need For Speed Unbound at highest FHD resolution on medium settings. If I shut off vsync, in pretty much all my games, the FPS is appreciable and it's a fair amount of fun. It is a very tiny computer and for my final upgrades to it, after I put a 32GB Gskill 3200MHz CL22 SODIMM (just one) in it, are going to be an i9-11900F CPU upgrade (which is massive) as well as maybe a little bit of modifying the grille on the top of the cover to be able to fix to it a Noctua 5V PWM -> USB fan that should drive air into the case onto the board and thus underneath the GPU card and the blower fan for the CPU. This feels like it could be a very effective cooling strategy just that I am trying to conjure up if any more aerodynamic or efficiency things could be constructed or modified. It would be only a 40x10mm fan or possibly a 40x20mm fan if that one has better induction. I want it to remain very neat and tidy and thought about using some random screws and set screw type fixers like what you'd mount an ATX motherboard to a computer case with type of nicely fine machined metal stuff. Has to be neat and tidy and presentable BUT also removable because one of, if not the most important, feature of this setup (pics below) is it's tiny-ness. Boasting the GPU and a custom, but made as efficient as possible, cooling mod, I think it'll end up pretty damn tricked out!

That is not the only thing I needed to do for cooling. I imagine it's old and might have numerous hours on it, plus myself cooking the CPU at top of it's turbo frequency, the heat paste needs renewal so I bought some Arctic stuff as I recall more than one person tell me that's the very best stuff. I have seen the great boost new heat paste gives and I'm hopeful that once I get around to pasting the CPU it will make a considerable improvement.







I predict that by time september comes (about 3 weeks away) I can evaluate that I've had a pretty good summer. I've gotten smiles from some beautiful women and felt some good vibes and I owe it all to the Lord our God at the high point of the great place among us. However amidst the daylight is nightdark and some of my time was also punishment and tribulations. I am confident that the season's turning will leave me satisfied and with enough spirit to carry on with strength as I have some things I want to do. I will also be moving a fair ways away from here where I live now and segregating myself to a lot less excitement. It will be a challenge and I unfortunately haven't constructed anything for an ideal light at the end of the tunnel. I'm trying to slow my perspectives and focuses to see more of what is around me than be centered on thoughts which are just ideas or arguements I have with myself or even wonderings. I definitely plan to program some COOL stuff this winter and much more seriously than I've been able to do before. I'm legitimately planning on it.

I've always been the type that has style and really appreciates style. I don't consider style and aesthetic or intriguing visual things are vanity at all and hence more likely a fruit of God and of people. A certain style that's curious to me is the idea of a digital nomad. My brother and long time good friend had years ago piqued my interest in finer things of hacking and one of his interests was particularly in wireless communication. I've been slowly nurturing a potentially very big and consuming interest in broadband wireless types of things. One day I may very well be in a sea of encrypted bytes ran off of coils emitting high frequency pulses. Hacking modems and devices and softwares to modulate and/or manipulate (hack) beyond normal even educated amounts of understanding of how LTE, rangefinding, guarding and scrambling and intercepting and detecting, plus more I'm sure, all this niche technological hobby stuff. It excites me and once again I've ordered another industrial LTE modem gateway for what I may get a pelican case for and make like a clandestine kit out of. Anyways, I don't do illegal stuff I am strictly non-invasive and ethical interests only. I've been asked before to help and always deny helping ill motives. Just felt I needed to say that.

So I'm just absorbing this portion of 15 lifetimes of round the cloud computer use in my one and only life. I just want to do cool shit and maybe somebody may see it someday and actually comprehend it enough to go "holy shit man whoa" and I would grin, though that already does happen sometimes.

Here's some more pics of my USFF Thinkcentre gaming equipmento:






Yea so the sticky pieces of foam are all on the top and the bottom of it so as that NO metal from ANYWHERE on the GPU touches ANYTHING else at all. You can see in the final picture the angled riser. This is PROPRIETARY and must match the FRU number from Lenovo to properly expand the 8x slot that the motherboard has and give a 8x electrical 16x pcie slot, and angled perfectly so to get a really really low profile GPU like the one I have to fit under the case top. This is so friggin sweet I love it. As well my GPU, aside from how super slim it is, has a maximum draw of 53W and a friend on XMPP network told me he was pretty sure that the limit of 8x pcie was 50W. It works alright though with the exception of windows doing covert updates and ruining my graphics drivers and I've had to reinstall windows twice now because tearing out the embedded crap from the adrenaline drivers from the rest of windows is FAR too much like work and I do NOT care to get that intimate with an operating system I detest (windows). The adrenaline drivers have lots of bells and whistles and settings and stuff but using one of the nice settings, only one, will choke absolutely all my threads in that computer and it heats up more than I'd want it to. Also without even initiating user settings with adrenaline driver it's considerably worse FPS playing Need For Speed Unbound than just what drivers windows ships themselves. AMD is not stable. That's my opinion and I am allowed to clone it and put it in everyone's mailboxes so everyone knows what I think. I will however NOT be interested in any other GPU because this one is so damn slender, fits the setup to a literal perfection and I've grown to like it's grumpy behaviour.

I am probably going to get to doing a HELL of a lot of creative and productive stuff over the next while so if God willing, you'll hear from this cat again.

So on an actually serious note

I decided I am going to build yet another web application. This will be my second flask web application and will be a growing of a couple of eve online game tools that use the game's API. Flask is a really cool lightweight web application framework using python language and it's often used for constructing API's. It seems to me to only make sense that it should be well suited to work with API's all around. As well it does have some JSON commands embedded into it that simplify API calls. I want to pursue my lust of web application building and along with building this new project I also plan to try and seal the deal, per say, or rather finish musicplace.vip. It's mission in life, that web app of mine, was always simple and of a certain point. It has basically served to create the solution I sought.

o about the new application I need to solve two eve online game problems. One is the tiers of industry materials/items and their interconnecting complexity. It is very difficult to perceive what is needed for what when the blueprints, materials, minerals, etc are cascaded on multiple tiers and have, although a fixed structure generally, a non linear structure that differs for all end result items. I've used a couple of other "industry calculators" and indfustry tools but I want one that will just simply programmatically spit out a tree of what is needed, what is given, what is next and make it printable so a guy can upload the text file to eve and use it to purchase on the market. I actually have a vision of this, as I've thought about it for most of my time playing eve. I love that this game has such a detailed API access for all players.

Another thing, thought for some reason I cannot see it anymore, my one character's networth balooned to well over 100 billion isk and I do not know why. I would like to be able to search my inventory, which can be listed with some details (I would iagine), but based on estimated value like it shows in a tooltip in game when you hover over it. Imagining that somewhere, somehow, a publicly available subset or aggragate of market data exists I might use it, and keep it's regularly updated data refreshed in my application then program a method to search by value of item. That is according to estimated value or perhaps Jita/Amarr (faction trade hubs) buy/sell price at the time. Now I just thought here that I could probably get away with even only using data from the major hubs, or a selection of hubs, or depending on the complexity of information I could grab even a customizable set of data of market prices. Whatever.

Suppose that this can be a learning exercise for effectively coordinating API calls, a unique web front end and a considerable size of data. Plus not forgetting the logic involved in these functions is kind of extensive.

I'm not going to place high expectations on myself at the moment, due to a great discomfort with my life's situation lately and that being volatile to my ability to focus, but, if only I started then I should finish it at some point and be damn proud.

As a last piece of interest: I've stated a new goal today that is to be working effectively in the IT industry by my mid 40s (less than 10 yrs or approx). So if such a project idea as this one sustains and is maintained then it might help me down the road :) Cheers to beers friends!

None of my shit makes sense

My apoligies for something... Though I proof read my last post I did write it in my text editor and not with a fancy serif font or any other formatting things that help a writer write proper english. My grammar is terrible so I'm sorry if it's hard to read, I will improve that. Also for some stupid reason firefox will not display the font correctly. These two things are immediately up next to work on for my happy web log. Don't be cranky, I'm only illiterate, I could be a loser piece of s%#t but I'm not. (grudging) (feign happiness) (combat roll out of apache helicoptor with no parachute)

Nobody work, nobody gets hurt.

Lenovo USFF Project News for May

Greetings TCP farers. Did you know? Neither did I! That is a multitude of things LoL

I have not been on my keyboard for programming so much lately but instead playing games. I ordered a Lenovo ThinkCentre from Ebay that was stuck in that damn ebay global shipping program, which I honestly can't stand. After waiting a full month I got my refund back yet still the (expensive) thing came! I truly did feel blessed in a time amidst multiple hardships. This enabled me to move right ahead and get the project done as it were simple from there. What I needed was a PCIE 8x (proprietary) Lenovo riser that provides a PCIE 16x port on a 90 degree angle. In case you aren't aware this computer is very small. It's like 7x7x1.5 inches and can be mounted behind a monitor. Maybe you've seen such a device, about the size of a thin client. Anyways, then to get a GPU for that slot. The computer's CPU is actually not bad at all and has quite appreciable graphics without a dedicated GPU but my friend on XMPP found one that meets my hardware constraints and actually boasts real performance. Hardware constraints such as not using too many watts for the PSU cable, which I've upgraded to 230w from 135w demand stock, size for the sake of fitting in the case (this is a large portion of the appeal for this project) as well as not needing external SATA or PCIE power.

So I bought this literally TINY half height AMD Radeon RX 6400 that doesn't require external power and is about 157mm in length and fits into the already tiny computer I have on that riser I mentioned. I have been able to play Need For Speed Unbound and even made a few screen recordings and posted on my YouTube Channel. It's not quite as good as my previous gaming MSI laptop but it definitely is appreciable for what it's worth. Being tiny and, although loud, not producing really serious amounts of heat.

I have had about ③ weeks of fun with this, and a lot of fun as I was missing NFS Unbound's Volume 6, however unfortunately I had to learn something and had made a costly mistake. The mistake was not knowing, or thinking when I installed it and seen the GPU's pcb board resting on the metal housing of the USB jack on the rear, that some metal contacts on the GPU's board might short by bridging across the metal housing of the USB port. I honestly didn't think much about it at the time and when I was playing on it for the first while the performance was literally really good but (and only after noticed) eventually slowly degraded to a point where it seemed I couldn't tweak settings to achieve what I had before. After a while it had did something weird my computer reset on me, but wouldn't actually boot then. It did a few more times in shorter intervals and at last after doing it twice in shorter time caused my computer not to boot.

That caused me much sadness, so much sadness that I wouldn't even mess with it for ③ days. I had to get in a good mood to bother cracking it open and popping the GPU + riser card out and alas! It booted! I had noticed that while not booting no fans would operate and the lit up ends of my HDMI cable wouldn't light up BUT the power light on the machine did. This is how I thought it may be a power fault.

What I eventually seen while inspecting the GPU's board was an odd light discoloration looking vaguelly like a burn that was sort of through the board and seemed to travel from the HDMI slot on the GPU towards a capacitor on the other side of it. It was at that time that I declared officially my (not so cheap but fortunately not that overly expensive either) GPU dead. Sad, I see it on one of my shelves, so new and only 3 weeks of life, it's dead 😔

Now my only remaining concern was if somehow I burned out a component on the riser. If I did, and I'm honestly not sure exactly if I'd be able to determine, then I would need to pay another approximately 350CAD to redo this all. I am not rich, not even close, I am dirt poor just about I won't lie so this deepens my sadness but I am still extremely grateful this little beast fired up again, the computer I mean. At first I really worried that it had died but fortunately it wouldn't have been that humongous of a loss, if so, because I did acquire it free. Thanks capitalism! You finally did me a solid but I still hate you! 🖕 LoL ... I actually like ebay, for the most part, and definitely with the exception of the ebay global shipping program.

If my home life wasn't so damn terrible, er, lack of a decent home, whatever, I'd consider redoing this right soon and getting another GPU but it will be postponed for the sake of leaving this entire civil district and getting away from a doomed mission to live in a place that I cannot be free or comfortable. Always losses in life and that will cost too (A LOT). So perhaps I will also postpone pictures and a more detailed post until I am able to make it work under the best conditions. Here's hoping that happens, and soon!

Here is a sweeeet forum post with a MASSIVE amount of details related to computers like this, you might probably find this interesting .. and some more related .. 🎲

My Desktop Today - Again, Again 🤔

Hallo happy internet! I thought I would share my theme and wallpaper (made by me,yay) from today 🔥


<sup>This uses xfce4, on archlinux, I'm currently running off my LTE with my thinkpad modem in the basement, with a 19% signal (very low), and the ping is for polling the tower so that I get priority presence on the LTE network and a decent bandwidth and latency despite being under the cement walls in the basement


1920x1080</sup>

I have a little project with a new computer of mine to share in the near future, as well I hope you like the CSS updates (styles) I made to this page and the homepage .. 🌊 👋
