Some people still talk about COVID-19 as if it was a thing
In Sweden and a lot of other countries COVID-19 Either didn't exist or it somehow had a negative impact on mortality since we had a lover than average 5 year annual trend mortality
All causes Car accident's included This is how I look at things Because if U account for all mortality, simple tricks as renaming flu death COVID deaths wont suffice
And no, there weren't less car accidents than normal
Yes, taken out of context I see that my post can be interpreted that way. What I meant was people still talking about COVID-19 as if it was a dangerous flu. Reminding us that it is still too early to relax.
Wear a mask, stay 10 feet apart, take many boosters, don't attend private gatherings, don't visit grandma, don't visit small coffee shops and restaurants.

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.

Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.

The German communist urban guerrilla group known as the Red Army Faction (RAF) kidnapped the German businessman Hanns Martin Schleyer on this day in 1977. But did you know that Schleyer was a former SS officer? A fact often ignored in the historical narrative. Schleyer’s aggressive anti-communist views, his history with the Nazi Party, and later his position as a prominent member of the right-wing Christian Democratic Union made him one of the main enemies of the 1968 student movement and a target for the RAF’s kidnapping operation. The RAF used Schleyer to blackmail the West German government into releasing imprisoned RAF members, including two of its founders, Andreas Baader and Gudrun Ensslin. After all the imprisoned members were found dead in their jail cells, Schleyer was killed by the RAF. Early in his life, Schleyer became an enthusiastic Nazi follower and quickly rose in the ranks of the Nazi Party. After being held as a prisoner of war following the defeat of Nazi Germany, Schleyer was released in 1948 and became one of the most influential German businessmen. He was simultaneously president of the Confederation of German Employers’ Association and the Federation of German Industries. The RAF was a West German communist, anti-imperialist urban guerrilla group that emerged from the 1968 student movement. It was founded in 1970 and remained active until 1998. Due to the RAF’s numerous activities against the West German state and its NATO allies, it became one of the leading communist urban guerrilla groups in Europe. The infamous picture of Schleyer being held by the RAF, taken 20 days into his capture, has since become one of the most iconic pictures of the 20th century.

Mx linux is a bad chioce if you cant answer this yourself because its going to differ from most other debian distros. You probably want to use normal debian or linux mint if you are still learning.
To answer anyway; First install lightrpd using apt, and then firgure out the differences between sysvinit and systemd so you can properly configure the server to start.
If you just use debian instead, "sudo apt install lighttpd" would be enough to get everything started.
I think you know its not just a matter of "clicking a setting in a gui once"
Why would you choose a non systemd based distro only to just switch it over to systemd? Why over complicate thinga for a new user who is clearly just starting out? Just use normal debian!
I tried it about a week ago but since i have zero interest in alternatives to systemd or gui tools I find its easy to just install something that uses the things i want by default.
If you enjoy having that extea option and managing it with gui tools then im glad mx works for you, but it seems overcomplicated with no practical benefit to me.

I didn’t want to be sick of course. But I got “the call,” and although I resisted, when you’re called you’re called. Being sick is my vocation. I didn’t choose it, it chose me!
I am so good at being sick. I am especially good at hating it. Real passion there.

While persisting with their aggressive military maneuvers, the US imperialists and their acolytes try to slander us under the signboard of “human rights” and “democracy,” but this is wild dream. The “defence of human rights” and “democracy” the imperialist reactionaries advocate are nothing other than sophistry to hide their intervention in and hegemonic moves towards other countries. It is preposterous to slander our Republic, which is the motherland of the people, and our society that is united single-heartedly, with such far-fetched sophistry.

Mikhail Kilev: No one doubted his absolute devotion to the revolution, socialism and the interests of the working class. His principles were unshakable and his person incorruptible. He had a capable and incisive intelligence, capable of analyzing complex situations and plotting courses of action accurately clear and thorough. He was decisive, calm and firm even under great stress. He had an unrivaled talent for organization. He had a great ability to undergo a high pace of work. His lifestyle, his way of acting at work and in dealing with others he denotes great modesty and simplicity. It was the combination of these characteristics and the undeniable achievements of the Soviet Union under his leadership that gave Stalin towering authority and earned him the respect of his comrades, of the people in general and also of many of his enemies. wordsmith.social/protestation/…

The drums are programmed, the sounds are from a company called Ugritone. There's a bit of guitar & bass scattered around in the other projects, but it's been a while. I'm working on a new SC release that will have some guitar action as we speak though. 😀
Lenin: We professional revolutionaries must and will make it our business to engage in this kind of 'pushing on' a hundred times more forcibly than we have done hitherto. But the very fact that you select so hideous a phrase as 'pushing on from outside' ... proves you to be demagogues, and demagogues are the worst enemies of the working class. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.
by h16. Unsurprisingly, the media and politicians then took turns as quickly as possible to deny what, as the hours went by, seemed the most obvious: no, it is not "green" energy that is responsible.
the real question is why the France is producting too much electricity while it is supposed to have a controllable network? and why the France has saturated the spain network?
back in the early 90s my parents brought home an ibm ps/1 with an internal 2400 baud modem. i assumed it was only for sending/receiving faxes.
one day my computer teacher (thank you mr. mckinney!) explained that the modem made my computer capable of dialing out to *other computers* and exchanging data with them. he printed off a five page ream of tractor feed paper titled "The 403 BBS List" and sent me home with it.
i stayed up until 3am that night, dialing every single board on that list using Windows Terminal, creating accounts, and exploring what BBSes were capable of. by the wee hours, i had a new terminal program (Terminate!), knew how to use the z-modem protocol, and had pirated my first game 😅
one of the little mysteries i came across that night was FILE_ID.DIZ files. every board had them. every zip file had them. they were tiny capsule descriptions of what a program/game was, constrained to 45 cols and 10 rows of ascii. they usually also included some kind of nod to the piracy group that "released" the program.
most BBS software would extract the .DIZ file from the zip, and use that as a file area description for the program, allowing users to understand what they were downloading.
to celebrate this weird little historical curio, today kiki got a FILE_ID.DIZ packed into the zip 😆
in version 1.10 onwards every copy of kiki will now include a FILE_ID.DIZ.

Going to try a new sleep schedule to see if it helps with my insomnia.
Bedtime at 2100 Wake up at 0000 Back to sleep at 0200 Wake up for good at 0500
My sleep schedule right now is anything but regular and I'm actually over sleeping which is not good at all.
Since I'm retired I can afford to experiment so let's see.
Actually, pre-Covid when I was going to bed at 7PM and waking up at 3AM every morning that honestly was IDEAL but there's no way I'm doing that now. Also, I don't need to avoid Atlanta traffic any more and get to work at 5:30am in the morning either.

Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) introduced the App Store Freedom Act [PDF] on Tuesday, legislation that would compel "large app store operators" with over 100 million US users to permit third-party app stores and allow them to be set as defaults.
Wood Art and Troll by artist Thomas Dambo ( From Denmark ) The troll Elle has grown large in the heart of Viborg and is strong as a troll. She stands with a three-ton heavy stone in her hands, amidst 100 large stones, all as protectors against humans, to take care of nature and watch over Ellekone Hill and the entire area in the southern part of Viborg.
Elles Helle Once there was a fairy mound, so young and beautiful and sweet Once there was fairy dancing when the sun was red Once there were flowers, beech trees, and the blacksmith dressed in gold Once the earth was full of worms, and the mole dug the soil.
Then came a giant monster, and it took a bite of the hill So the fairy girl screamed and ran away across the field Many long years passed, and the lace turned brown And the fairy girl returned home to the hill as a woman
And with her, in a sack, she carried a hundred stones on her back And now she has placed them across the field as a defense that shields the hill And behind them, Elle now resides in a hideaway from the monster That tries to enter and devour the hill filled with flowers. #woodart #art
Went for a walk in Rold Forest (Central Denmark) & found this interesting lake.. Rold Forest's springs are among the most water-rich in Northern Europe. The many springs in the area are due to the fact that the lime in the subsoil causes the groundwater to seep up. There is a rich fauna in the springs, even very special species that have traces all the way back to the Ice Age. The water flow of the springs is almost constant, and the water maintains a temperature of 7.5 degrees all year round. The springs are protected, and it is forbidden to collect animals and plants from them. #myphoto

Yes, taken out of context I see that my post can be interpreted that way. What I meant was people still talking about COVID-19 as if it was a dangerous flu. Reminding us that it is still too early to relax.
Wear a mask, stay 10 feet apart, take many boosters, don't attend private gatherings, don't visit grandma, don't visit small coffee shops and restaurants.
