[05:55] schestowitz-TR What he does not and cannot say in GulagTube is that they now need to look into the same thing wrt vaccination

[05:55] schestowitz-TR rather than infection

[09:27] schestowitz-TR just rebooted

[09:27] schestowitz-TR system acting a little strange

[09:27] Techrightssec ack

[09:28] Techrightssec reboots are necessary when the kernel or certain libraries are updated,

[09:28] Techrightssec also it's a good way to clear out long running processes

[09:30] Techrightssec otherwise with some libraries, you can get inconsistent behaviour

[09:33] schestowitz-TR in my case, it seems like kde issue, kwallet and kate not working optimally atm

[09:33] schestowitz-TR doing system update as well just in case

[09:33] schestowitz-TR but the net effort is lost time, nothing else

[09:35] schestowitz-TR think I foun d the cuprit

[09:35] schestowitz-TR tldr; messed around with kwallet, which left kate hanging, waiting to make remote connections to open files

[09:35] schestowitz-TR I will TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY to tidy things up

[09:35] schestowitz-TR Monday mornings are quiet anyway

[09:41] schestowitz-TR the issue is something with kwallet

[09:41] schestowitz-TR not remembering passwords and just hanging

[09:41] schestowitz-TR I had a similar issue some days ago

[09:47] schestowitz-TR argh!!!!!

[09:47] schestowitz-TR I know where it is

[09:47] schestowitz-TR I already warned myself

[09:47] schestowitz-TR last year

[09:47] schestowitz-TR it's kwaller hindind behind a bunch of windows

[09:48] schestowitz-TR with a prompt

[09:48] schestowitz-TR took me half an hour to find it

[09:48] schestowitz-TR mystery solved!

[09:51] Techrightssec that could well be the result of mismatched libraries (update minus reboot)

[09:56] schestowitz-TR a reboot would have 'helped' in the sense it would give me another chance to see an hanging prompt

[09:56] schestowitz-TR this is not a new problem

[09:57] schestowitz-TR rianne had that too

[09:57] schestowitz-TR it's UI kludge

[10:18] Techrightssec ack

[10:44] schestowitz-TR back in action

[10:44] schestowitz-TR without any of these niggles, I reckon a reboot and session/tasks restore should take 20 mins

[10:44] schestowitz-TR abotu the same as end of month tasks

[11:32] schestowitz-TR nhs became truly awful

[11:32] schestowitz-TR just needed to escalate to a manager (not for me)

[11:32] schestowitz-TR after they play "pingpong" with patient

[11:32] schestowitz-TR physical, phone, "on line" (Web site, awful)

[11:32] schestowitz-TR I joked that next thing they'll do it call a webchat "GP visit"

[11:32] schestowitz-TR then outsource to lowpaid country

[11:32] schestowitz-TR then replace with "HEY HI"

[11:32] schestowitz-TR and still call it "national insurance" (HEY HI)

[11:32] schestowitz-TR They already try to do workflow charts as JS and call that "service"

[11:32] schestowitz-TR I remember in high school someone wrote in ML (not machine learning, the language

[11:32] schestowitz-TR like SML) some program to help with classificatiopn

[11:32] schestowitz-TR so this neo-liberal fantasy is like 25+ years old

[11:32] schestowitz-TR like the idea of "self-serving"

[11:32] schestowitz-TR and "cashless payments" universally

[11:32] schestowitz-TR no comment needed, just venting a little

[11:37] Techrightssec insurance != care

[11:40] schestowitz-TR for a lot of people the ambition to settle and have a quiet life is disrupted by

[11:40] schestowitz-TR ssoaring inflation and various other factors, inc. various changes at the health level,

[11:40] schestowitz-TR inc. relatives, and then there are factors that are neither financial or health related

[11:40] schestowitz-TR shhort story: life in 2020 onwards is very much difference from 1980s

[11:40] schestowitz-TR not to mention what "home ownership" meant 40 years ago

[11:40] schestowitz-TR I am happy and healthy, can't complain

[11:40] schestowitz-TR but make observation on many around me, who are a lot less fortunate

[11:40] schestowitz-TR and I don't see this turning around any time soon, the media here makes very grim predictions

[11:40] schestowitz-TR which can't possible be healthy albeit maybe sobering to the populace

[11:40] schestowitz-TR *possibly

[11:45] Techrightssec ack

[11:49] schestowitz-TR if my laptop has a third complete system freeze in 10 days or less, I will do a proper investigation

[11:49] schestowitz-TR I already moved my important files off it earlier this year

[11:49] schestowitz-TR but it's a good processor and I want to keep it for several more years

[11:49] schestowitz-TR the only net effect here is loss of time

[11:49] schestowitz-TR the loss of "notes" was very minimal

[11:49] schestowitz-TR thanks to the way file server and backups are done

[11:49] schestowitz-TR I didn't back up the sites last night, did not have time

[11:49] schestowitz-TR but it's on my list still

[11:49] schestowitz-TR once the dust settles I'll be able to do a lot more

[12:04] schestowitz-TR breyer has just written to me

[12:04] schestowitz-TR have not opened yet

[12:04] schestowitz-TR reluctant to start another long article

[12:04] schestowitz-TR got some more upc material as well

[12:04] schestowitz-TR I will limit toi breyer for now

[12:04] schestowitz-TR unless that avenue closes

[12:48] schestowitz-TR good news: spoke to clinic manager, got an appointment in 3-hour notice this way

[12:48] schestowitz-TR so the escalation worked

[12:48] schestowitz-TR posting Daily Links now

[12:48] Techrightssec ack

[12:48] Techrightssec excellent

[12:49] schestowitz-TR you already know this: reading about FB and Twitter lately is music to my ears

[12:49] schestowitz-TR and I think it vindicates me for saying it would happen "in the next 5 years

[12:49] schestowitz-TR I could probably say "1 year" or "2 years" but played it safe

[12:51] psydruid crises and pandemics accelerate things that would have happened anyway, but would have taken longer otherwise

[12:58] Techrightssec ack

[12:58] schestowitz-TR yeah, the busiuness model was not t rhere

[12:58] schestowitz-TR the capital klept coming

[12:58] schestowitz-TR but that river dried up

[12:59] schestowitz-TR sorry for typos
