Nextcloud Upgrade Experiment


This potentially impacts friendica.eskimo.com, hubzilla.eskimo.com, nextcloud.eskimo.com, and yacy.eskimo.com for a brief period after midnight tonight.

Posted on May 6, 2023

I am going to take the web server database offline briefly later this evening to make a backup before trying an experiment with Nextcloud. In the past I have gotten the external_authentication module to work for versions it was not designed simply by altering the definitions file associated with it. I am going to see if I can get NextCloud HUB 4 to work this way. By backing everything prior, I will have a way to return to NextCloud Hub 3 if it does not work. I will do this after midnight so as not to interrupt much normal use.

Global Economic Crisis - Brough To You by the Rockefuckers


This global economic crisis is brought to you by the Rockefuckers, who control Klaus Schwab and the WEF and the UN and the WHO and pretty much every other non-elected world tyrant agency.

It was brought about by a contrived climate crisis which is utter bullshit but brought about in order to create artificial scarcity to increase the value of the Rockefucker oil empire so they can fuck us all harder longer.

Let's STOP THIS SHIT NOW, and PUT THESE FUCKERS TO DEATH because that is what they've already done to several million of us via the Covid bio-weapons, both the engineered virus and the clot-shots, and they will put another seven billion to death through the lack of energy and food IF WE LET THEM. LETS NOT LET THEM.

If we spend $50 trillion to become carbon neutral in the U.S. by 2050, you’re the Deputy Secretary of Energy, give me your estimate of how much that is going to reduce world temperatures.”


A legitimate question. Tying money to climate change is a con. Reducing pollution, like the giant oceanic garbage patches is one thing, and doable with the effort of money. The temperature of the earth is not.

Vicuna Open Source AI


I heard about an open source AI called Vicuna that supposedly manages about 93% the quality of chatgpt with FAR fewer resources. I tried to go to the website but it won't load, vicuna.lmsys.org/Does anyone know what's going on?

This video is made by a group of people I watch regarding the Forgotten Civilization hypothesis. The end of the last ice age, and what caused it, are the main topics they are concerned with. So tracking climate is an integral part of that idea, and they weighed in on the climate change thing. Pretty much what this video says, they just get into greater detail.

The reason Rockefucker Foundation wants to focus on global warming is simple, Create artificial scarcity for their primary business product, oil, drives prices up, produce less but sell it for more, means more profits over a longer period of time. Good business strategy if you have zero ethics and don't care about how you affect the global population, and if there is one family on this planet that defines psychopathy it is the Rockefuckers.

Linux Audio Skipping


If you're running Ubuntu 22.10 or later and experience skipping of audio under wine, this issue is something fuxored with pipewire. Removing it and letting pulse do everything returns the system to operational audio. I've got 8 core i7-9900k clocked at 4.9Ghz and 32G of RAM on this box and audio was skipping with only Firefux, a few ssh and mate terminal sessions and wine running Winamp. This was a problem both after upgrading from Ubuntu 22.04 to 22.10 and again from 22.10 to 23.04, and in both cases removing everything pipewire and then rebooting fixed.

A Small Victory


Kaiser Permanente, which currently is my medical provider, has been requiring masks even though the law here no longer requires it.

I stated, the best studies show masks, and then only the N95 ventilator types, not your common cloth or painters masks, are at best 1-2% effective at preventing the spread of covid-19.

I stated the studies show that masks also INCREASE the risks of bacterial infection.

I got a letter today stating that they had considered my arguments and have elected to drop mask requirements except in the cases where local jurisdictions require them by law.

It's a small victory to be sure, but it IS a victory and one I wanted to post to encourage you, to fight for what you know is right and bring an end to this tyranny.

See about 7 minutes into this video.


Many of our supposed elected officials and some appointed have not taken the appropriate oath of office and sworn allegiance to the constitution and therefore are unqualified for the positions they hold. This is a non-trivial portion of our government.

BRICS and the so-called death of the US Dollar IS BULLSHIT, Here is data, and here is why!


The dollar has fallen about 30% against the Brazilian real but only about 1% against the Indian Rupee, has remained essentially steady (within 1% over 25 years) against the Chinese Yuan,and has gained 4% over the Russian Ruble, so the data does not at all support the conjecture of a doomed US dollar. I assume you are some investor asshole trying to pump your gold and silver assets up. The reason it can fall against Brazil is because the Brazilian economy was fuxored and is gradually recovering.

The reason it hasn't fallen or changed significantly with India or China is because we are their largest export market by a factor of about 400% over their next largest trading partner in both cases and it isn't in their financial interest to let it fall.

The reason it's gained against the Ruble is that our economy is larger than Russia's so while both are hurt by this stupid proxy war in the Ukraine, the Russian economy has been hurt ever so slightly more.

So while DemonRat spending has undoubtedly not been a good thing for our economy, there is NO real world evidence that the dollar is in immediate danger of collapse. China and and India are the worlds two largest economies after ours and we are their largest export market for both, consisting approximately of 80% of their exports in both cases, and if they allow the dollar to slip much relative to their own currencies, they lose 80% of their export market, they aren't likely to allow that to happen.

This upgrade will affect all of Eskimo North’s services, shell accounts, UUCP, e-mail, web hosting, mail lists, and virtual private servers.

It will also affect our free services, friendica.eskimo.com/, hubzilla.eskimo.com/, nextcloud.eskimo.com/, and yacy.eskimo.com/.

Is It Even Legal


I received an e-mail from Adam Schiff trying to solicit campaign contributions. What is particularly odd about this is that I am in Washington State NOT Californicatia. Is it even legal to solicit campaign contributions from people you do not represent?

At any rate, my response was rather impolite:

What you and your but fucking friend from Germany, Klaus Schwab, are trying to do to the world and our country is unacceptable. Please fuck off, go rot in hell, and do not ever contact me again.

Do I feel bad about that level of impoliteness? Well perhaps only to the gay community for associating them with Klaus Schwab though he kind of made the
association and really I just acknowledged it.

I'm wondering what is being depicted with the children-zombies in gold, are these kids drained of adrenochrome?
