Waste of Time?
Not just a waste of time but a waste of life! Why inject someone with something that is likely to kill them now or later, to protect against what amounts to the common cold? And other than some body aches and a day or two of general malaise that is what Omicron is.

‘Waste of Time’ to Keep Vaccinating People: Ex-Head of UK Vaccine Taskforce

It is a “waste of time” to keep vaccinating people against COVID-19, the former chairman of Britain’s Vaccines Taskforce said.

Linux Kernel 5.16 Much Better!

I just compiled and am running a 5.16.0 Linux kernel. I had been running 5.13.19, because 5.14 was unstable (crashed if you looked at it wrong) and 5.15 was as slow as molasses in liquid helium, audio skipped, graphics performance was not great, system load was high and most CPU cycles were spent in kernel time. It seemed to have severe issues with context switching and interrupt handling.

So far my impressions of 5.16.0 are very different. No audio skip, seems to respond well, graphics are on par with 5.13. If it remains stable I'll be happy. Unfortunately, the kernel development folks have slated 5.15 to be a long term release which is unfortunate since it's performance is shit.

By contrast 5.16 on a i7-9700k machine with 32gb of RAM clocked at 4.9Ghz, with a MariaDB, a Windows 10 VM running Flyff (a 3DMMORPG), Winamp running under Wine, Firefox, the Mate Desktop and half a Dozen mate-terminals and various widgets, it has a load average of only 2.6, that means 5 cores are sitting idle and one is only partially occupied, and at that 26% CPU in userspace, only 1.9% in kernel space. so HUGE improvement over 5.15.

Omicron - End of Pandemic
I don't have a graph but here in King County the peak was about 400% of Delta and we're now on the downhill side (highest numbers were Wednesday Jan 12th), only deaths attributed to trailing Delta very early on, no deaths once Omicron solidly displaced Delta. So now I'm still seeing governments locally overreact even though we're on the downside of this. And on social media, it's clear the NWO folks know they can't milk this for much more because I'm seeing bullshit emphasis shift from Covid to Global Warming and also they're already gearing up for a possible Trump re-election by trying to smear him, but everything they attribute to him is really ByeDone so it will be interesting to see to what degree that works.

Specialists now agree on endemic ending

The world is finally waking up to what we reported a year and a half ago – there is a difference between someone dying “from” COVID and someone dying “with” COVID. The Gateway Pundit first reported this fact back in August 2020.

Web Server for friendica.eskimo.com

Automatic Restart and Alarm for Web Service
Posted on January 15, 2022

Because 2.4.52 version of Apache seems to have a bug that causes it to occasionally stall, and because earlier versions have a root exploit that makes returning to them unfeasible, I wrote an automatic recovery script to recover the server in the event of a failure.

What it does is automatically test the web server for a proper response every five minutes. If it fails to respond, it attempts to restart apache, waits a minute to give it time to spool up, then retests.

If the second test is good it logs the failure so I can keep track of how often it is failing. If the second test fails, it turns my speaker volume up to 100%, and I have 100-watts per channel so that’s 200 watts worth of noise and then sends the Star Trek Next Generation Red Alert sound effect to the speakers. I should hear that pretty much no matter what if I’m here, and also sends an e-mail so if I’m out I will be notified via my tablet or laptop.

Hopefully this will prevent long outages like that which occurred last night when Apache decided to silently hang.

Web Server Monitoring Tests

I am going to test a script that I wrote to attempt automatic recovery of a hung apache web server and if that recovery fails an automatic alarm.

This will interrupt friendica.eskimo.com, hubzilla.eskimo.com, and nextcloud.eskimo.com.

If everything works as expected, there will be two outages around 5 minutes each. If not, there may be more and somewhat longer.

HP 2755

My HP5455 all-in-wonder crapped out and I bought an HP 2755 as a replacement, not realizing at the time that it lacked a document feeder and fax and the scanner does not work. I am used to HP being pretty much plug-n-play under Linux, NOT THIS machine, so spent several hours of troubleshooting.

Finally said fuck it, booted Windows and tried it, no device driver available. So I went to HP's site, they've supposedly got a device driver but when I click on install it does not.

I tried their HP Smart program and their HP Scanner and Driver Doctor program, neither were helpful.

I then got a hold of someone in customer support via chat. Teats on a bore hog he was. He finally got flustered and abruptly terminated the conversation.

So this pile of shit is going back to Amazon from whence it came. Just warning others in case you are considering a similar purchase.

Subject: Real Data

Message: Be nice if someone would give us real data instead of Pfiezer shill data regarding Covid. Per Pfiezer's OWN documentation, 1/3rd of those receiving the vaccine are either killed by it or permanently damaged. And per four different south African doctors I've heard from, Omicron thus far is right up there with the common cold in terms of disease severity, approximately 1% requiring hospitalization, less than 10% of those requiring oxygen, and six percent of those dying which makes the death rate .06%, less than the .1% for the common flu. The big danger of Omicron is it's going to reveal all the lies you bastards have foisted on society in the name of big pharma profits and government power.

Radiation
One thing that puzzles me is how much variability there is in local background radiation. I bought a Geiger counter about a year ago just to see if the people saying the whole west coast was being fried (it isn't) by Fukushima. At the time typical back ground was 13 microseiverts / hour. Today is only 10, and I let it run for a while because there is some randomness but it stayed consistently low tonight.

I'm looking for a very old poem, it was taught to my now deceased mother by her mother, and I can only remember the opening lines, wondering if anyone can identify, google did not return a search result.

There lived in China a very fat man, his name was chiggery chig chian, his head was big and his feet were small, the Chinaman could not walk at all.

If anyone can help me identify this and locate the full text, it would be appreciated.

Omicron
Well there have been over 18,000 New cases in King County over the weekend, yet, in this last week, ZERO deaths. It is disrupting hospitals, not so much because they are overwhelmed with patients as because the staff they haven't already fired for refusing the death vax, many are positive and home isolating.

Used Car Seattle Area
My 2000 Crown Vic has gotten sick beyond the point where it's worth repairing. I'm looking for a 1996-2000 era Ford Taurus, an SHO would be really nice as I've already got one, but I'll setting for a six as I had one of those also but was destroyed by some asshole in an Impala that was too busy watching bouncing boobs around Green Lake to pay attention to the red light and rear-ended me in his '65 Impala totaling my car. His insurance, State Farm, fucked me royally only paying me $1500 for it for which I can not get a replacement. But now that my Crown Vic is dead, well not entirely dead but worn badly, front end is sloppy and I've replaced everything and it's still sloppy, fuel pump is bad, and it's been in two accidents, I'm looking for another Taurus, no longer have four kids at home so don't need a car that seats six anymore. Any suggestions for good places to look for used autos? I found my SHO in Craigslist, I paid a whole of $1500 in it but then put another $4k into bringing it back to good condition. But worth it, wonderful driver and no satellite link to follow me around or shut me down remotely. I don't want anything newer than 2000 owing to satellite link and do want something the engine and transmission at least are still serviceable and have been well maintained.

Nanook

Well found myself a '97 Taurus with 66,000 miles on it. Only ding is a minor scratch over the fuel filler cover, otherwise body is 100% perfect, interior perfect and it runs like it's right off the factory floor 25 years later. They said 69,000 on the advertising but that's when it was due for it's next oil change, it had 66,000 on it, and the oil was totally clean so every indication it's been well cared for even though not driven much.

Marijuana Heart Attack Deflection

I don't know how many of you have seen some of the recent propaganda trying to blame a recent increase in heart attacks on the legalization of marijuana to deflect from Pfiezer and Moderna heart attacks, but I just watched one such presentation on Youtube and proved that what they said was complete bullshit.

The guy giving the presentation showed a graph as what happens to your heart rate if you smoke a joint, and they show heart rate at 70 bpm, shooting up to 100, and then he also says there is less oxygen available to the heart and more carbon monoxide and all these things increase your risk of dying from a heart attack 400%.

Ok, those were a couple of things easy to test. I happen to have a pulse oximeter, this is a little device you clip on a finger and it give you a little graph of your heart pulse, and has a read-out for beats per minute and a read out for your hemoglobin's oxygen saturation.

So I clipped that onto my finger, filled a pipe with some 27% THC smoke, inhaled deeply and watched the results. I started at 79bpm, 98% O2 saturation, two bowls later, I'm still hovering around 79bpm and still at 98% O2 saturation two pipe loads later. So the amount of CO I inhaled wasn't sufficient to reduce my O2 saturation to a measurable degree and 98% is reasonably good (generally you want to be between 94-100% and if I take a couple of deep breaths I can get it to 100% but generally mine hovers at about 98%). Anyway, two pipe bowls of really a pretty high grade marijuana 27% THC, and nada effect on my heart rate or O2 saturation. Thus I don't know where he got his graph but it was obviously fictional.

And Marijuana has been around a long time, and the statistics show that legalization has not resulted in huge increases of usage, 13.7 to 17.9% in surveyed adults, and one wonders if all who used admitted to it when it was illegal? So there is no way you can explain such a large surge in heart attacks to such a small percentage of increase.

Between my actual measurements discrediting his affirmations regarding heart rate and oxygen availability and simple logic, I must deduce this is just a deflection on the part of Pfiezer and Moderna to take the heat off the heart attacks the death jab is causing.

James Webb Telescope - Fully Deployed!
The James Webb telescope is fully deployed, there were so many moving parts and steps involved that it is simply amazing that this succeeded. It is now about 3/4 of the way to it's final orbit. There will still be months of calibrating before all the instruments are fully ready to do science but all the dangerous steps, things that were likely to go wrong but didn't, are complete. I can't wait for the calibrations to be completed and the telescope to start returning data. This telescope has the ability to look back to the very earliest moments of the universes existence, and thus either prove or disprove the big bang theory. I'm betting at the very least it's going to result in some substantial modifications of the understanding of how our universe came into existence. It also has the capability of doing spectroscopic analysis of the atmospheres of some exo-planets and may thus reveal the presence of extraterrestrial life. I thought it's chances of a successful deployment rather remote but it made it through that phase.

Harry Nillson

I just found out Harry Nilsson died on Dec 28th, kind of bumbed about that. Very much enjoyed some of his work, like the Land of Point, Jump Into the Fire, Coconut, and he was getting ready to do a concert and perform the Land of Point story live.

I was trying to find out if he just got recently jabbed like Betty White did just before she died. Yes she was almost 100, but getting jabbed and dying three days later is still more coincidence than I'm comfortable with. And likewise, Nilsson was 80, so might well have been natural causes.

Web Server Issues

Posted on January 7, 2022

This affected Eskimo North and customer sites as well as friendica.eskimo.com, hubzilla.eskimo.com, and nextcloud.eskimo.com.

We had a web server issue causing intermittent failure of the web server. I thought this was load related as the server is quite heavily loaded, but it did it today during a time of very light load. I was able to chase the problem down to a cronjob being run on a wordpress site automatically configured to redirect to secure mode when the certificate had expired. The cronjobs were never exiting and ran once a minute and simply piled up until memory was exhausted causing failure of other services. Normally I get automatic notifications when certificates are about to expire but did not in this instance. I’ve ordered a new certificate and commented out the cron job until it arrives and can be installed.
