#Flaming Ember #55 years
Give my mind to you with a love that'll never grow old
You are my smiles the last tears
You are my days, my weeks, my years
You are the flowers beneath my window sill
You are everything beautiful everything that's real
I give my love to you all my body and soul

My aunt is currently in the middle of a major
sundown" episode due to a relief caregiver not giving her her meds at the right time.

I am home in Fort Worth and am in contact with the caregiver and a really good neighbor who are with her. There is nothing we can really do until she settles down (law will not allow anyone to force medication on her).

If you have the time, please pray for the caregiver and the neighbor friend as they deal with this.

Thank you in advance.

The 1986 Ford Taurus / Mercury Sable was another big design change in the American automotive industry.

The 1976 Cadillac Seville was the first of the new design language from General Motors that dominated the company all throughout the 80s.

The design focussed on maximizing interior roominess for the driver and passengers in a smaller platform (compared to what was typical at the time).

Love it or hate it, the design was very influential.

Yeah, the food is put in the can, the can is sealed, and then its heated to both cook the food in the can and to kill off any bacteria. As long as the can doesn't lose its air-tight seal, they can last a long time.

A few months ago, I opened a 10-year-old can of corn and another of sweet peas, just to prove it to my GF. They were just fine.

Just be careful with pop-top lids cause they can lose their seal easily. And be careful with stuff like fruit cocktail cause the acid in citrus juice can corrode the aluminum can after a while.

@Paultron-3030 I get the sinking feeling, with all the black and grey activity that goes on in the US, that the FBI was basically in a turf war on behalf of the Jewish mob.
The ethnic mobs were at least local. They were *your* criminal organizations. It entailed a certain power being held by the ethnic groups. Now they’re gone, and there’s a huge underground economy in the US, and it’s not just agriculture.
Makes me wonder if we weren’t better off with the ethnic mobs, but maybe I’m merely associating the good ole days with them.

as to what the FBI was doin i don't know. getting rid of the big international gangs (that the US WW2 government had a strong hand in establishing) was a good thing regardless of motive. it was not the end of the road into fixing the US but obviously that was not their motive
they were never your criminal org, if you weren't in them. the first and most important factor of such a group is that they dig a gulf between themselves and normal people- a sense of unique identity is a bonding factor for members and a weapon to be wielded over 'civilians'. ultimately non members were objects to be abused for money. the route to the most money did not always involve harming these civilians, but they weren't holding back out of the kindness of their hearts
it ultimately boils down to how you view power relationships- any relation between people will have a power aspect, but do you think there is a role of concentrated power from groups of people to utilize that power for greater ends without making it miserable for everyone
its happened a few times before but idk if it can be legislated into consistency and time is short for this planet

Truly heartbreaking: A man called into Alex Jones' Infowars on June 16 to say: "I married an illegal and I want to know if there's any proactive step we can take to maybe get on a list of 'leave this one alone' or whatever. We've been in the system. We've got two lawyers, we've spent thousands of dollars..." at which point Alex Jones cuts him off and says basically if the country doesn't remove immigrants than the democrats will win so they need to "hurt some people who aren't bad."

I can't remember the exact details, but the Plymouth Fury from these years was an option on top of the Belvedere, and they all came in a specific paint scheme that was NOT red with white trim. (one year it was gold with aluminum trim, and another year it was buckskin white with gold trim) The Fury in "Christine" was shown as a special order (which I don't think Plymouth would actually do) but it definitely made it stand out in the beginning scene where she is the only red car on the line of light colored Furies.

Stephen King wrote Christine as a 1957 Fury because he wanted to use a car that wasn't "popular" like the 1957 Chevy Bel Air. But he did almost zero research and originally wrote Christine as a 1957 Fury 4-door, which did NOT exist.

These had a fantastic drag coefficient. There used to be a pre-1960 racing league where the rules were you had to use a pre-1960 body but could use whatever chassis/powertrain combo you wanted underneath it. Everyone kind of expected it to be a Corvette show but the Studes dominated because of their aerodynamics.

Studebaker was also, as far as I can tell, the only company of significant size to successfully transition from horse-drawn buggy manufacturer to automobile manufacturer. Studebaker built many of the Conestoga wagons that were used to settle the West.

The Good Guys are building concentration camps in Rafah
and massacring civilians trying to obtain food.

The Good Guys are circling the planet with hundreds of military bases
and telling us we're not allowed to oppose genocide.

Yesterday I saw a little girl playing
and I thought how nice it is that she has all her limbs
and that she is not lying still
covered in gray dust
while her father screams and cries
and calls out to God
while trying to kiss her back to life.

The world is changed now.
The moon is covered with powdered buildings.
The pigeons are weeping
and the wind sounds like drones.
Sometimes I cough and gray dust comes out.
Sometimes it's a child's shoe.
There's a dead donkey lying in my backyard
that nobody wants to talk about.

The Australians chat about real estate investments
and how you can knock down one house
and replace it with two houses
and then make believe that neither house
smells like corpses.

It’s small right now but I’d love open hardware, gateware, and software for kids to learn upon. That’s what’s appealing about your project to me. (That, and I’d finally feel like remembering the 6502 instruction set isn’t wasted brain space.)

I’m not sure the revived C64 is fully open though? And the fact the guy is a Truther is an instant turn off. Regardless, enjoy researching the competition.

Federated Services

Federated Services are services which many instances form a network to provide a greater whole than the sum of their parts, each participant in the Fediverse is an “instance”. A message or other item made available on one instance is visible and available on other instances.

We make these services available to all people who do not abuse it in order to promote the values of Free Speech, and those of the United States Constitution First Amendment. A free republic is not possible without free speech and commercial mainstream media do not provide it. We also get some advertisement benefit from hosting these, it is our hope that people who see how fast and responsible our ser
vices are will decide to do hosting or use other paid services here.

There are numerous federated services available, we offer Macrobloging platform Friendica, Hubzilla; Microbloging services Mastodon, Misskey, a federated search engine, Yacy, and a federated cloud service, Nextcloud.

Macrobloging services are message systems that allow long form posts similar in format to Facebook. These allow for works of fiction, poetry, technical papers, news items, short stories, and more. These formats are most useful for discussion of social issues.

Microbloging services allow only short form posts similar in format to Twitter. While you can link to larger articles elsewhere, you have a relatively short character limit and so can not post them directly.

Censorship, is handled much different on the fediverse than on mainstream media like Twitter or Facebook. On the fediverse, each individual instance is responsible for content available on that instance, but does not censor the rest of the network. Thus if you find the rules of one instance too constraining you can move to another.

Federated search engines are analogous to federated message systems in that each instance chooses what portion of the internet it wants to crawl. When you enter a search term, the local instance queries all of the federated instances, collates and sorts the results and presents them to you. As with messages, each instance can have it’s own censorship policies but no one instance can censor the enti
re network.

Given the wild-west nature of the fediverse, it is probably not suitable for children under 14, and you’re guaranteed to find some material that will offend virtually everyone. With federated search engines, material that is inappropriate will usually be flagged sensitive or nsfw (not safe for work) so as long as you don’t expand material marked as such, you can avoid this sort of material. Ther
e are occasionally people who violate these rules, we do our best to remove such individuals none the less some will get through.

We offer the following federated services:

Friendica.Eskimo.Com
Friendica is a decentralized long format macrobloging message network. It is similar in format to facebook however there is no centralized censorship. Also, it is able to federate with all other federated message systems which use ActivityPub protocol and also we have extensions that allow it to speak to several other networks via other protocols.

Hubzilla.Eskimo.Com
Hubzilla is similar in message format to Friendica in that it allows long posts. However, it specializes in it’s ability to provide connectivity to multiple protocols and so we include it in our mix of federated services primarily for the better connectivity it offers. Hubzilla provides a great deal of interoperability between many networks though ActivityPub is still it’s prim
ary protocol. Hubzilla gives you a greater degree of control over privacy than some of the other networks. You can create private channels that are served between hubzilla instances and other compatible instances.

Mastodon.Eskimo.Com
Mastodon is first and foremost an alternative to Twitter. While Twitter has Tweets, Mastodon has Toots. The format is very similar. Mastodon toots have a limit of 500 characters. Similar to the short limit of Twitter. This is why this platform is referred to as a Microbloging format. Mastodon interacts with other ActivityPub instances however when a long form blog post from another i
nstance arrives, you are only shown a short portion with a link to follow to see the full post on the originating site.

NextCloud.Eskimo.Com
Nextcloud If you are a customer of Eskimo North, your login credentials will work without a domain extension to access Nextcloud. If you are not a customer you can apply for a Nextcloud account using your choice of login and password, in this case the login should include your originating network. Some features require an Eskimo North shell account to take full advantage of.

Pixelfed.Eskimo.Com
Pixelfed is a federated pixel gallery. A place where you can share your photos to the widest audience possible, and you can view what others have shared. We now have this site also properly federated so any images you share can be viewed on any other Fediverse site by users who follow you, and you can view images posted by anyone on any fediverse site whom you follow.


Yacy.Eskimo.Com
Yacy is a federated search engine. There are several thousand instances on the Internet. Each instances crawls whatever portion of the web the administrator requested. It is also possible for the administrator of a site with relatively few resources to request a larger site to do crawls on their behalf. Unfortunately, it does not provide a method for an end user to initiate a crawl,
but if you send e-mail to support@eskimo.com and request a crawl, we will initiate a crawl on your behalf.

Shell Accounts

Shell Accounts
A shell is a command line interface for an operating system. With most shell providers, a command line interface on one flavor of Linux or Unix is all you get. Eskimo North provides access to eight different popular Linux distributions and SunOS Unix. Eskimo North also full remote desktop capabilities using X2Go with sound, and also NX, VNC, and RPD without sound.

Account Types
We offer four different levels of shell accounts: Economy, Standard, Power, and Enterprise. Background tasks such as IRC bots, Game Servers, and the like are permitted on all account types except student. IRC servers are not permitted because of their tendency to draw denial of service attacks. Standard, Power, Enterprise, and Super-Max shells include a MySQL database allowing you to run a variety of LAMP stack based applications on your website and to use non-web based applications that require a database.

Web Hosting
Web hosting under our domain is provided with all shell accounts. You can host your own domains with virtual domains or web hosting packages.

Remote Desktop
Remote desktop capability is like having a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers plugged right into our servers. Because our servers can be accessed anywhere in the world, this allows you to have a work environment you can access from anywhere in the world without risking losing your files to a laptop, tablet, or phone thief. We offer remote desktop capabilities on all of our shell servers except for the SunOS server. We support x2go, nx, vnc, and rdp protocols. X2go is the best choice as it provides extremely efficient compression and X round trip removal as well as sound.

Applications
Applications include Office Suites such as Libre Office and Caligra (which can read and write Microsoft Office file formats), Web and Program Development tools such as Bluefish Editor as well as many other editors, compilers, interpreters, scripting languages, debuggers, profilers, and online documentation.

E-mail
Our e-mail system offers unprecedented flexibility. You can access your mail via shell mail readers including graphical mailers like Thunderbird, or via Web mail, or via pop-3 and imap mail protocols, complete with TLS encryption. Our mail system includes Bayesian filtering with Spam Assassin which can be individually configured for your needs. Procmail allows you to sort and process mail automatically. Smartlist allows you to maintain mailing lists.

Security[color]
Access to all of our servers is available via strong encryption. The shell servers all support ssh access. All of the remote desktop protocols tunnel via ssh. We maintain all of our servers up to date keep with the latest patches. Backups are made weekly.

[color=darkblue]Eskimo North has been providing Unix timeshare services since 1985. We have been providing Linux timeshare, shell access, web hosting, e-mail, and Internet services since 1992. Please take a look at our services as they support our free Federated services including Friendica, Hubzilla, Mastodon, Nextcloud, Pixelfed, and Yacy Search.

Available Shell Servers

We have a variety of Linux Servers with a variety of Linux Distributions and Desktop Environments. Linux servers in use here are of three basic lines, those derived from RedHat, such as Fedora, Centos, and Scientific Linux, and those derived from Debian such as Debian, Ubuntu, and Mint. Ubuntu is the most current and feature rich. Then there is Manjaro, derived from Arch Linux. Arch is more often broken because it is a real “do it yourself” Linux, an excellent learning platform, a good development platform, not a good production platform.

All of these servers are available if you have a shell account here. You can use them to learn various versions, decide which to install, and as one place you can develop applications for all versions. We install a wide variety of development tools on all of our publicly available servers.

Our servers listen to port 443 in addition to the standard ssh port of 22 to provide a means to connect from behind a firewall that blocks non-web access. You can also utilize Guacamole on our website (login public, password public).

Alma.Eskimo.Com
This server is running Alma 8. Alma Linux replaces Scientific Linux after it’s discontinuation. Presently we are running Alma 8 because Alma 9 does not support NIS out of the box although there are ways of hacking it in. It is unfortunate that Redhat chose to piss on the infrastructure so many organizations depend upon. This is why we tend to favor Debian derived flavors. None the less as Redhat derived software goes Alma is pretty solid.
Anduinos.Eskimo.Com
Anduinos is a Debian derived distribution that defaults to a Gnome Desktop themed to look like Windows 10. At present though this Desktop is not working over network connections, instead Mate and Gnome are presently available. I am working on some others.
Debian.Eskimo.Com
Debian Bullseye has a rich assortment of software installed, including hundreds of Games, a huge variety of Office Productivity software, many Educational and Scientific applications, a variety of Integrated Development Environments, and many programming languages. All of the documentation available online these applications is also loaded.
Fedora.Eskimo.Com
Fedora Rawhide can be accessed graphically using x2go and the Mate desktop. It has the most applications of any of the Redhat derived servers. I install just about everything I can get to work on this machine so it has a huge variety of applications installed.
Kali.Eskimo.Com
Kali is a special purpose shell server designed for penetration testing. It is primarily here to test our own internal security, and as a result, egress is extremely limited, however upon request, proof of IP space ownership, and permission of the owner and agreement to hold us harmless because it is possible some of these tests may be destructive, we will allow outbound for testing of other sites.
Manjaro.Eskimo.Com
Manjaro is a good choice for a Linux user who wants to just install and go. There is a pleasant user interface and a good choice of software in the Manjaro repositories. It is a less technical Linux than Ubuntu, you can do most things through graphical interfaces and the default xfce interface is extremely light in terms of memory footprint. Like most modern distros, a variety of Windows systems are available and we have Gnome, Mate, KDE, Xfce, LXDE, and LXQT installed.
Mint.Eskimo.Com
Mint is another recent addition to our shell servers. It is running Mint, although we have the Mate Desktop installed for graphical access. This is necessary because Unity and other compositing Desktops are incompatible with x2go and really work very roughly with VNC. If you like games, this is a good server to use and there are many installed. Mint is a derivative of Ubuntu which in turn is derived from Debian and this server thus follows the structure and layout of Debian and Ubuntu.
MxLinux.Eskimo.Com
MxLinux is an excellent choice for a computer with limited resources. Before the overhead of a Desktop is considered, MxLinux uses 200MB less RAM out of the box than does Ubuntu. If you’re not a fan of Poettering and Systemd, you’ll like this OS as it still uses a System-V init with Systemd shims to allow packages requiring systemd to function. You can also run systemd and in fact I am doing so because it boots faster. The default Desktop is LXDE which is also small and efficient. But if you like eye candy you can install any Desktop you like and as with other servers I will install all that I can get to work on this OS.
PopOS.Eskimo.Com
popOS is a modern appearing OS based upon Ubuntu, and not just indirectly, it actually utilizes Ubuntu’s repositories in addition to it’s own. The Desktops presently available on it are Gnome and Mate, though Gnome is a special edition known as Sparkle, and it does not operate properly with X2go. Presently X2go and ssh are the only two access methods. I am working on the others.
Rocky8.Eskimo.Com
Rocky8 is a RedHat derived operating system very similar to Centos before Centos was absorbed, and ruined, by Redhat. While Centos support, with the exception of Centos9 is going away on June 30th, 2024, and CentOS9 is not usable because of the deletion of NIS by RedRat which is necessary to our organization, Rocky8 will be supported for security updates through May of 2029, thus provides us a means of continuing to offer a Redhat based environment for another five years.

Ubuntu.Eskimo.Com
Ubuntu can be accessed graphically using x2go and the Mate Desktop. The native Unity desktop is a compositing desktop which is incompatible with x2go. This machine is equipped with many applications including a huge number of games, a rich assortment of development tools and computer programming languages, a huge assortment of Office productivity software, many scientific, electronic, and educational tools.
Zorin.Eskimo.Com
Zorin is a Ubuntu derived operating system. It combines the eye candy of some other Ubuntu flavors such as Mint, with the security awareness and up to date nature of Ubuntu providing a really superb server environment. This machine is our best equipped server. It has the full Ubuntu Studio Suite, a very large assortment of development tools, language packs for all supported languages, many games, both Libre and Caligra Office Suites, and much more. X2go is supported on this machine.

Crontab access, batch, and background jobs are allowed on all of our servers. Most have unrestricted outbound access with the exception of kali owing to high abuse potential for tools that exist on it.'

We also offer web hosting, e-mail, and virtual private servers.
