reboot, re install and reuse. linix since95 or so.(word on emulation)
monthly refresyes and now the the practice of getting things re config'ed to a science. also have 'video on redhat' bookmarked.(and never use it)
corel linux; redhat for years. i used suse till the one-byte prob broke the partion tables. mint for the next few years, till VLC stopped.
looking for a fully functional to run and yes, i re install every few weeks. things are cleaner that way.
tried win11; it's a horror. ads, AIs and security makes it unworkable.
I love gimp, (they got in on the kaffeeklatch registration i do every decade or so.)
They got coffee money from me and i use it daily.
and I have looked thru (perl/ java scipt pythlon modules) for animation + gifs.
'couse, i'm a moron user too.
the 'made with gimp' is still there. not worried about stripped info in resizing,
as humiliating as it sounds, make-gif/ ray-trace refine (sharpen) and
use as AI model ML and training in neural net (make 3d amimation, refocus, deblur)
options that would would help? don't tell intel tho. set number of active cores? assign cores?
love gimp, they deserve a 100 registration fee.

"But I want the job so I become not a dark lord of the robots like you, but beautiful and terrible as the storm and the lightning. all shall love me and despair!"
Needless to say neopotism and my words went far in convincing the manglement. (of her worth)

I know a good idea when i steal one. however, a working kludge needs special tending; ie: the AI agent that optimizes your software setting for you when no one's looking.
being able to work the complier anyway is a noteworth steal.
the hype and utopiaism types. except in SF good times are viewed rather ... badly.
sigh. the last artifical life forum I read (oh, 95 or so) had road building algorymns.
here's the sf Gunlake AI kevin williams .99 cents smashwords. com
and it's AI centric. sigh. (I'll take it out in trade here. Everything there for a sample of mine.
tks.

assume the the usual ms, google and paypal rant. The link is for short-attention-span theater.
please stand in front of the cameras, show ID and state complaint.
*please remember you ARE liable for slander. *
in a perfect world?

anal lytics.
predictive software and the profiles on police calls get them shooting first and asking questions later.
GIGO.
how 'bout the number of kids gone into private schools vs girls dying blond hair black?
(canada here. RC schools, privates, publics. Or you could be a religious loon + home school.)
gigo, again. history charcter impact when the whole data-set sucks.
hot air? let us vent!

jeez.
I had to learn python for gimp .
use it every day for idiot-work. (text, borders. poster art.)

I tried sending money their way for this program. twice.
the www , as usuakl, didn't need censorship with bad links and old info.
new packs? bio-metric AI characterization for animation, please. (HA!)
(gait+ whatnot is good ID these days.)
packrat
automated programming?
intelligent, friendly, smart (functional programming interface)
optimized (snerk: size, speed, security - cloud, eh?)
gigo AI (
[ Structure History Cause
Function Character Effect
Evolution Impact Correlation]
So cause-effect/ co relation = kinda important there )
= automated intelligent AIs.
last time I looked, the WP doesn't even self-optimize most-used modulaes loading yet.
stripping functions outta objects/ dll? fine.
lemme know when it can harden windows.

the conservatives here invented a new layer of goverment to help the corps out;
everything (CRTC) telecom gets an overseer com, staffed by corps.
all decesions must get vetted there.
It's one way to kill competation, rasie prices, lower standards and snoop on users.
packrat
hum, where's the spell checker gone?
way to tip-toe around the CC licensing... and what he does about scrappers making a living leeching off him...
or hitting Non-pc topics ( obama, (revenge is mine) Harper, muslims, quebec
gmos, vaccines, copyright trade treaties..
etc.
on the other hand... live casting the comet landing deserves a medal.
packrat
over 2t partions without setting up your own partion/fat/whatever?
I'm in. will it sterilze IBG's and derfag too?
plus I tend to drown in data here and can't find what I need. (rots o ruck with THAT one)
on the plus side, I'm still telling people xp/98 etc is about to fail because their smallish drives are nosey and about to go blooey. (surprising how many of them don't have backups when they do go. You can't help these people.)

well, i got burned out of the google+ AI forums a few months ago for not doing code. /math / results.
the techies just stood and screamed "i don't understand! You're crazy!'
other than that, (expert/ neutral net / brute force) AI is till missing the dimensions of existence i consider important... and I'm a pragmatist (pierce) (object, relations, mediation ). (really old fashioned.)
brilliancy? (well, maybe a couple. Nothing got any return, so it looks dubious)
hard work?
disasters without phil's help?
it comes down to what they want to pay for these days. Putting out requests for a cherry-picking solution relies entirely on innovation that hasn't been lynched out of existence.
good luck.

merkal: is a last name around here (ottawa and calgary) and their daughters are some of the foxiest females i've ever seen in life. same thing, according to the dictionary i use.
bred for it, apparently. Beaver not only lives, it prospers. And the girls are cute.
if yer up for tantric instead of tech, try stalking millionaires... also free..
or the Aaron+henna series. ALL disney-level, etc.

intelligence is definable.
recognition, manipulation synthesis. And a thermostat does most of that, too.
sapient and sentient are slightly different
IQ tests recognize political, academic and creative skills. (abilities) already...
BUT motor, intellectual and social skills get a higher pirority.
These NINE words won't help with a few undefined abstracts...
tactics, strategy, and a few others. (yes, i have defs, BLEAH!)
where is your problem?

river-mouth civilizations...
and you know what comes out of rivers these days. (well, nothing much anymore for a lot of them but that's beside the point)
If i have this timeline correct: comet makes (minnie) ice-age, forcing new food chain..
ice-age lowers water levels + farming expodes in (exposed) deltas.
ice melts 1000 yrs later drowning (proto. HA!) civilizations
river valley nonsense well underway 5000 yrs later
around 1400 first global pandemics release European exploration-craze.
(china's junking around,+ puritan (hello cromwell. what else did you do?) settlements, eventually.
cute. Today's little globalization effort is a economic and not cultural rationalization?
and tin-foil hats block signals, making them illegal?
? so where are the ufo's?
drat, i was doing so well there for a moment....

as i age, it isn't mis adventure that's trying to kill me... (from about 20-50 yrs old it's your social life, your social life and your social life that kills most.. AIDS, work-stress and traffic accidents.)
note your father probably had smoking, drinking and being over-weight as his problems...
And this new generation of bio-feedback control sounds more than intriguing.
there are 43 different characteristics named, noted and used by the natural food freaks.. way beyond the color-control of the mid ages. (still used in coffee beans, i believe..)
this way beyond galvanic skin response.. (aka part of a lie-detector) most cells change their eletrical potential when sick, for instance.
traffic, traffic traffic. (the number, load and speed.)
i do wonder WHICH gestalt will turn out to be the most telling/useful/ stolen.
psycho-neurological advertising -wise, that is.

it isn't too late to stop this idiocy. Iceland is dumping the full-payback and and socialized losses.
Monsanto is getting it's poisonous, non-nutritious and expensive food-like substances banned.
cilmate change is getting driven into some (fair thick) NA oil-slciks.
Japan's (current= 05-02-2012) flu epidemic is starting to hurt them and demonstration world-wide pollution problems.
The clerks that want to alter PI and stop evolution (The NWO is actually a couple fast steps back.)
with paperwork shuffles are getting sense beaten into them as they attack their own customers.
this might work out... if we scream hard enough.

The zone 1 censorship model is getting in place. Like modded food rules
(there are laws against gardening here in canada... apparently they can take your house for bottling dandelions these days)
it's gonna get a whole lot worse before it gets any better. Like the broadcast treatym which allows the patenting/copyrighting of 'orphan' content on the web.
like the European limitation laws, (almost a century on works public here)
like patent meds getting forced out while patented meds get ( more unlimited) monopolies
news, data sets, laws of physics (orbits), these are just a few of the things getting patented.
and now censorship on a GRAND scale. (sopa. climate change terrorists, anyone? Animal activist are on that list already)
I'd put the whole lot out to pasture, as fertilizer. (6 feet down), if i were you.
packrat
interesting. Other than screaming objections at the questions at the top of my lungs... (goes right along with the dirty looks my mirror gives me mornings)

(only 3 megs?)
surprise ending. 1 minute long
this ACTA is the biggest land grab in history.
taxes on xeroxs for ed (just kicked up 400%)
you don't own CD, dvds, etc. NO time shifting, songs on ipods. (new copies per view, sucker)
news stories are patentable (and censored)
so are orbits, and math equations
EVERYTHING is trademarked
you're dead.
in the water.
graduated when GST was being done in cobal. (wend)
they took 'personalities' that 'fit' the team.
have coded in c ever since, with passing swipes at javascript, java, CSS and whatever else was necessary to debug.
with promotion hiring pratcies like these (ask nokia + the homeboys)
get used to private consulatants 'cause the hires can't.

g-20? feeding the world on red tape.
the gimli glider revisited. Iceland? Wonderful news on freedom of press.
ACTRA? being nibbled to death by ducks. ANY travel make customs the SOLE judge, jury and collector of anything they deem noteworth.
death by red tape (worm) should be avoided at all costs.
packrat
it WOULD help if more than one line was on the headline... this is shoddy reporting, B.
e-books? lovely thought, stupid exe.
I buy dvd's at used prices instead of going to movies.
e books will wait till the deadwood has died off.. by refusing to change, as usual
evolution IS conservative, etc.
packrat
(the legal structure of corperations)
is evoling.. past biz reps on the governing bodies.
here, in canada, they are regulating the bodies now. (they being the ones that are doing it to us... in this case, 'suits' or corperate executives)
the CRTC is a prime example. A brand new form of overlordship, written up, legislated and enforced.
rep by pop here? lordies and ladies in a NEW house of lords?
past dividends, the RIGHT to overlord the government agencies?
MOST IMPORTANTLY
oh, and welcome to admin law. here abouts, it is NOT subject to little matters like proof.
onus (it's reversed), or appeal.
enjoy!
