		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hello. This is a challenge for Paolo. I hope you read this, Paolo.
You are an interesting human being, you know more about me than what I know
about what you know about me, because I have barely talked to you and you,
too, have barely talked. Words. Mouths. Saliva. Syllables. Ideas, brain
gew, brain stew.</p>

<p>Your challenge is here. Now. You should provide your public ssh-key for
repository access through e-mail (<code>heror0 4 8 4 [ a t ] pr ot onmai l.com</code>
without spaces it&rsquo;s just so that the web scrapers don&rsquo;t catch on to this email.
)
. <strong>Your task is to edit this article</strong>
and <strong><em>say anything you want about me</em></strong>. I invite you to write in any language
you choose, could be more than one. You can say as little or as much as
you&rsquo;d like. Your preference. I would love to see a story about myself
through the eyes of an interested reader of my blog. you may add images,
drawings, etcetera. you should make all hyperlinks relative to the <code>data/</code>
directory, e.g. I have an image <code>data/asdf/img</code> and you should reference
it in this markdown file in html as <code>asdf/img</code>.</p>

<p>you can preview the whole blog using the <code>make all</code> command from the

		<title>believing in something: Stalker (1979)</title>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>I watched Stalker(1979), a Russian film
recommended to me by Miranda. It was
hard to watch at first, I constantly
looking for consistent meaning and
then I started contemplating it. That
is when I started to appreciate the film.</p>

<p>I watched it in two sittings. In the
first sitting my Father was with me, we
watched about 30% of the film. Then I
watched it the next night and I am
writing my review of it just after I&rsquo;ve
watched the film so I don&rsquo;t forget most
of my thoughts.</p>

<p><strong>Spoilers ahead.</strong></p>

<p>I wrote some things in my notebook:</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>March 23, 2023. More than one and a half year later, I am here to write this.
I don&rsquo;t even remember anything of what I was going to write.</p>

<p>Today is now Saturday, January the fourth, <strong>2025</strong>!. Yes, 2025.
Can u believe it!?!?! I barely can!</p>

<p>Yesterday I went to Mexico City to get a typewriter (yes, those ancient
beautiful machines) fixed. I could not find any shops
near were I live. The nearest one was in Mexico City.</p>

<p>So I went there. And there it was. A shop. A workshop. Its banner
barely said anything about typewriters.
The business itself is more tailored to the fixing of printing machines,
the newer machines that have become the norm in almost every house with a
computer. You have a computer, you are to print. And if you didn&rsquo;t have
a printer at home you wen&rsquo;t to the stationery store. In Spanish this is
a <em>papelería</em>. And I also had with me another machine which I had been
almost using daily for about two weeks or so now. And that one worked
almost flawlessly. Maybe every 300 characters or so it slightly jammed,
it was easy getting it to work again but it did need some cleaning

		<title>Archiving iPhone photo albums without iTunes in Linux</title>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hello! My Mom asked me to archive the pictures and videos on her iPhone.
I tried doing it without iTunes and was somewhat successful!
I was able to keep all of her albums!</p>

<p>One knows that iTunes can be a very buggy piece of software. I&rsquo;ve personally
backed up very few times iPhones using iTunes, as I do not really care
about having the apps backed up. I only care about the Photos and videos.</p>

<p>It should be as easy as connecting it to your computer, right? Well, no.
I mean, kind of. You can easily connect your iPhone to your Windows computer
and from your iPhone click on &lsquo;Trust this device&rsquo; and it will magically open
up the access to your iPhone&rsquo;s DCIM folder which contains all your pictures.</p>

<p>I&rsquo;m using Garuda Linux but I&rsquo;ve been able to mount my iPhone with Arch Linux:
<a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/IOS">https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/IOS</a></p>

<p>Note: It was a pain in the ass finding the mount point of my iPhone in Garuda
Linux. They really didn&rsquo;t make it easy! Turns out it was in
<code>/run/user/1000/kio-fuse-OUJOte/</code>. I could see the files in the file manager,
but whenever I right clicked to open a terminal, it would drop me in the home

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Today, hello. I am writing slightly uncomfortably
on a moving bus. It looks small from the back. But it&rsquo;s
indeed a relatively large bus. It is the first time I use
one of these tables. There are tables for eight passengers.
Always at the back. Are they eight tables? Or just two?
They seem to be two. Since on each side of the bus there are
four seats, two seats facing another two seats. With a table
in the middle. And then there are these little arm/tablerests on top
of the big table
with hinges attached to it. And they say not to put your
arms over it. But that&rsquo;s really what it&rsquo;s for. Maybe they mean your
full weight or something.</p>

<p>Anyways, apparently there is WiFi. I&rsquo;ve never used the WiFi on this bus.
I like to be out of connection when being on a bus.</p>

<p>Although calls do come in every once in a while. From my parents, mostly.
I haven&rsquo;t written in a big while. My last post must be more than a month old,
I think. Esteban read it, thank you Esteban.</p>

		<title>El Teatro ó El Teatro y Yo.</title>

		<pubDate>Wed, 18 Oct 2023 22:16:40 -0600</pubDate>
		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Lunes 16 de octubre de 2023.
Acrerca de: El Teatro ó El Teatro y Yo.
Título: aún no decidido.</p>

<p>El Teatro. El Teatro es algo. No es alguien. No es una persona. Podría ser varias ideas. No creo que sea una sola idea. Puede ser muchas cosas, claramente. Puede ser bailar, cantar, actuar. Verse a los ojos en un escenario. O también en la calle. No hay que estar tan alto en un bloque de madera o viendo a lo lejos desde unas butacas incómodas para decir que vivimos el teatro. El teatro es una manera de contar historias. Sí, ya sé. Hay muchas maneras de contar historias. Pero el teatro es más personal. Es en vivo. Hay personas frente a frente. Hay butcas, sillas. Un escenario de madera que a veces rechina. La acción sucede ahí mismo. Y sólo lo presenciarás una vez. Podrás ir a ver una obra del mismo director, mismos actores, mismo todo, una y otra y otra y otra vez. Pero nunca será lo mismo. La hora no será la misma. Probablemente el día tampoco. Los actores idealmente estarán pensando en básicamente nada y sólo serán quien tengan que ser. Porque ser un actor se trata de comprender una escena, se trata de ser quien tienes que ser. Tienes que vivir y sólo ser. Sí, sí estás pensando. Pero estás pensando como todos los días, siendo quien tengas que ser.</p>

<p>El teatro puede ser esto:</p>

<p>Oh, Hanna. How I&rsquo;d like to meet you is&hellip; i don&rsquo;t know. Yeah, I like you, sure. You&rsquo;re beautiful. I&rsquo;ve heard you&rsquo;ve got a boyfriend. Fine, I won&rsquo;t try to ask you out. Yet, I still want to meet you. Wouldn&rsquo;t you? Don&rsquo;t you? I wanna meet you. Know who you are. Know why the fuck do we stare at each other. Maybe we wonder too much about what could be, instead of doing whatever it is we wanna do, you know? I wanna give you a kiss, just for fun. But alright, I won&rsquo;t, I know you&rsquo;ve got a boyfriend so I won&rsquo;t try to do that. But you see, the obsession is not with being your boyfriend. It&rsquo;s with getting to know you. Know what&rsquo;s going on in your mind, understanding how you can achieve such beauty.</p>

<p>I wanna ask you if I, me, myself, ever happens to cross around your mind, If you ever wonder about me, if I create, if any, importance within you.</p>

<p>Fin.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hopefully it is not a tragedy. I am rebooting my server
after more than 374 days of uptime. Not complete uptime,
since sometimes I do reboot the webserver command (<code>lighttpd</code>)
every once in a while. But in fact, this computer has been alive,
consuming some amount of electricity, power, work from somewhere else,
for the last 6 minutes,
21 hours, nine days, and one full year as of writing this. In a
few minutes time, power will be cutoff for a few seconds, and
then, back to business!</p>

<p>But what is it with computers and rebooting, that we must do it all
the time. It feels kind of essential. We&rsquo;ve built this persistence around
memory, hard disks, solid-state drives. The files will be there, intact,
thanks to the error-correction built-in to file systems and physical
devices. Pretty weird, right? That you can kill all the power, turn on
again and it will work almost exactly the same as before. Or maybe
your error will be fixed, because of some weird condition in the code
that specifically made it act that way.</p>

<p>Oh, computers, persistence is key. But the persistence of the reboot is there.

<p>Alonzo Church nació el 14 de junio de 1903, en Washington, D.C. Su padre fue un juez. Estudió en la Universidad de Princeton y obtuvo una Licenciatura en Matemáticas. Se graduó en 1924 y pasó a obtener un doctorado en los próximos tres años bajo Oswald Veblen.</p>

<p>Fue maestro de filosofía y matemáticas por casi cuarenta años. Dentro de sus trabajos notables, se encuentra su desmostración al problema Entscheidungsproblem, desarrollado independientemente de Alan Turing y en donde llegaron a la misma conclusión. Se destaca por haber inventado el Cálculo Lambda, un sistema de notación para funciones y sus aplicaciones. Church fue el asesor de tesis de Alan Turing, también en la universidad de Princeton.</p>

		<title>How to get a consistent RSS feed ?</title>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>It&rsquo;s hard. Well, maybe not that hard. But when
you coded a half-assed program to generate an RSS
feed using shell scripting inside a makefile it&rsquo;s gonna
be pretty hard to fix it.</p>

<p>I&rsquo;m most likely going to rewrite all the RSS feed generator
in C. I hope that doesn&rsquo;t bring any more problems&hellip;</p>

<p>Well, it all began when one of my readers told me that he
was attempting to use the RSS feed and told me that it was
broken. He didn&rsquo;t explain much else beyond that, aside from
the fact that the atom link was broken too.</p>

<p>And by broken, he meant that it wasn&rsquo;t being properly parsed. But
the atom link just has been broken for a while - because the file
doesn&rsquo;t exist on purpose. I&rsquo;ve been meaning to fix both, the RSS
and the Atom feeds which are very similar but just haven&rsquo;t had
the will to do it, until now apparently. I hope this will lasts
long enough that I am able to fix both problems.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>When do you ever, truly, feel happy ?</p>

<p>I think that&rsquo;s when your willingness to live to survive, increases.
When you wanna feel alive you wanna just keep on living and you&rsquo;re
so fucking high on adrenaline you just feel like you wanna keep going.</p>

<p>That&rsquo;s what I felt like whilst watching Uncut Gems. A movie with Adam
Sandler. It&rsquo;s about a guy who deals jewelry, all kinds of things.
Fancy, big things. He&rsquo;s jewish.</p>

<p>so he gets this rock. And the guy&rsquo;s a gambler, like a real fucking
gambler. He gambles his money at work. He owes debt to a ton shit
of guys. Even one of his family members. And one of his family even
makes Adam Sandler get beat up cause he stills owes money.</p>

<p>And you know, the plot realy doesn&rsquo;t matter that much. Well, no, it does,
it did to me!</p>

<p>Really, what this film is about. It&rsquo;s about the unexpected. About life
itself, you never really know what you&rsquo;re gonna get. You don&rsquo;t know if

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Escribo aquí, ahora, porque puedo y lo he decidido.
El día de hoy me levanté  alrededor de las 8:25 horas de la mañana.
La noche anterior comí mucho. Salí alrededor de las siete u ocho de la
noche por elotes.
Fui con mis amigos a un estacionamiento con un &lsquo;food truck&rsquo; como se le
conoce en los Estados Unidos de América. En español de México también
le decimos así. No he escuchado la expresión &lsquo;un camión de comida&rsquo;. Así
que así se quedará.
Bueno, el punto es que en este puesto venden elote.
Ni siquiera elote en vaso, esquite o trolelote (al menos no lo vi
anunciado).
No. Sólo elote con un palo. Se le pone queso, mayonesa, salda. De todo.
También vendían un tostielote - justo lo que pedí. Es una bolsa de papas
de tu elección (doritos, tostitos, entre otros) y le ponen, efectivamente,
elote y salsa, queso, todo eso lindo y querido.
Y también vendían panqué y pastel de elote. Yo pedí una rebanada de
pastel de elote.
El panqué sabía casi igual - lo probé de un amigo.
Nos gustó.
Está cerca de donde vivo.

<p>What am i doing here? what am i doing now ?
i do not really know. i can tell that i am writing.
i am writing on a text editor, on vim, on an operating
system called linux.</p>

<p>but how do i feel? because for some reason i keep thinking
and thinking and thinking. but sometimes none of that thinking
sticks.</p>

<p>i think too much. i am a person with ideas that flow. i am
not directing those ideas anywhere, really. why don&rsquo;t i?</p>

<p>i don&rsquo;t know, i am unsure. i am writing to remind myself that
i used to do this, write. I used to write on my blog.</p>

<p>maybe someone will read it, maybe someone will not. i also
want to remind myself this blod, it is a record of some
of my thoughts and should act as an archive of my mind.

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>I dropped out of university. I was majoring for CS Engineering (Ingeniería en Tecnologías Computacionales) at Tec de Monterrey Campus Toluca.</p>

<p>I didn&rsquo;t like it there. I mean, I did but I felt like I wasn&rsquo;t learning. Plus, I was there for three years during high school. Not exactly the same building, but the same place. This might sound kind of dumb, but I wasn&rsquo;t learning much from my programming classes. And my engineering classes could have been better. I felt like I wasn&rsquo;t grasping
the concepts necessary to understand physics, I felt like I was rushing.</p>

<p>I felt like I needed a change.</p>

<p>So I dropped out of there and I&rsquo;ve decided I&rsquo;m going to Puebla. It&rsquo;s a three and a half hour drive from where I currently live. I will be studying at UDLAP. that&rsquo;s short for Universidad de las Américas Puebla.
I will be studying the same thing. Here it is called Ingeniería en Sistemas Computacionales.
Or Computer Science Engineering, I think.</p>

<p>Anyways, I will be starting classes on January 9th, 2023. I&rsquo;ll be staying at the university&rsquo;s dorms.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hello, world!</p>

<p>You know, there was a big gap of history and life between this post and the post
before it: <em>Not on the melancholy hill</em>. I guess I could say that I honestly
felt like shit between those two times but I don&rsquo;t really feel like doing
that.
What i feel like doing is telling a story.
A story of now, of a recent now. Not a yesterday but of today. Of what
I did for me and for others the day of today. That&rsquo;s right, not the morrow
(yes it&rsquo;s an actual word look it up),
not the yesterday but today. What happened today and maybe what will
and what  i want to happen.</p>

<a name="a-new-beginning"></a>
<h1>a new beginning</h1>

<p><small>(not-so)</small>
So yeah, a not so new beginning. I had three alarms set for today.
One at exactly 06:59, another one at 07:00, another one at 07:01. That was it.
This was the day I was actually going to shower fucking early, have the time

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>For some strange fucking reason, I feel satisfied.
I am not sad.
I feel like I&rsquo;ve done enough of a purpose to myself and society and to my family. At least for today.
I&rsquo;ve talked to friends, maybe not as much as I like but whatever.</p>

<p>Today I drove. A lot. I drove in highways, strange fucking race-car-like roads that are technically in the state where I live !</p>

<p>I liked driving.
I went to one of my dad&rsquo;s friends from work apartment with my mom and dad, we were invited to a dinner.
He lives in some kind of a paradise.
There&rsquo;s a supermarket in his gated community ! It&rsquo;s gigantic ! There&rsquo;s so many houses surrounded  by the woods. Looks like a lotta rich people live there.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hello Stranger. I am me. And i&rsquo;m blogging.</p>

<p>I feel kinda bad, ok ?</p>

<p>Should I ? I don&rsquo;t know.
I enjoyed all this.
The human mind works in very mysterious ways&hellip;
<strong>insert another lame cliché here</strong></p>

<p>I don&rsquo;t even know how to feel.
i don&rsquo;t know what to think.
The only thing that I know for certain is that I&rsquo;ve balanced
my wrong-doings.</p>

<p>Last Tuesday I lied. I gave into a lie.
But I&rsquo;m an honest person, yet I had the choice to not choose
to lie.
But I fucking did!!
And I&rsquo;m not saying it&rsquo;s the other person&rsquo;s fault for suggesting
<em>to lie</em> but in fact, it was my fault.

<em>Vue les lyrics <a href="#lyrics">ici</a>.</em></p>

<p>Ok, donc qu'est-ce que je pourrait dire ?</p>

<p>Bon, je sais pas. Je pense que ça c'est une chanson pas dépriment nécessairement
mais réaliste de la realité où on vivre. Elle pourrait être la femme ou l'homme
mais à fin on a toujours une personne qui veut d'attention et une personne qui
est occupé déjà avec de travail ou quelques autres choses.</p>

<p>La personne qui chante a beaucoup d'intérêt d'être avec la personne mais
l'autre personne n'a pas l'intérêt. Il est pas interessé plus de être
avec la personne. Il est consummé par plus des choses comme le travail.</p>

<p>Mais la personne - l'homme qui travaile - est dans la date, non ? Il
est physiquement avec cette femme mais pour quoi est-ce qu'il ne prenne pas
d'intérêt s'il est là dejà.</p>

<p>Je sais pas.
Et aussi, analyser une chanson dans ma troisième langue est très difficile,

<p><img src=alice.jpeg ></p>

<p>Love and happiness are weird concepts.</p>

<p>whatis love ? and why does our society take such pride and emotion
into having it ? I mean, not just society, but my family and me as a
whole, right ? Why don&rsquo;t I get the love I deserve ? Maybe I do, but
I just don&rsquo;t see it.</p>

<p>I&rsquo;ve tried having love, sharing intimacy with others. But I guess I&rsquo;m
just not good enough, or just not good enough for them. Or i haven&rsquo;t
found the right person at all.</p>

<p>But the point of this blog post is to say that maybe, mayybeee
I have the one. Maybe I do. I&rsquo;ve crossed eyes with her. A lot.. maybe
way too much. She&rsquo;s crossed eyes with me. We&rsquo;ve crossed eyes.
Who started it ? Did I ? Hmmm, maybe maybe not ? You see, on a
purely survivalist standard being with that person would most likely

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Instead of working I have found myself dealing
with some mysery and happiness.
Lots of both sometimes.
I miss things.
I think I miss writing.
I like writing at the two a.m. in the morning because why not.</p>

<p>Anyways, I recently bought myself something that actually uses the usb-c
port on my computer. The USB-C connection actually has a Thunderbolt 3
controller and yes, in theory, I could just connect literally everything
I&rsquo;d possibly ever need through that cable.</p>

<p>I went to a Best Buy in Michigan to get a thunderbolt 3 capable dock
but to my surprise I did not find any of my liking. The thing that was
missing the most was a Display Port. Literally none of them had it.
Not even the extra expensive ones. I mean, they were all kinda equally
expensive, even though they&rsquo;re probably as shitty as one would expect
from too new technologies and not enough real manufacturing of them.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Well, <strong>who am I?</strong></p>

<p>Well, that&rsquo;s a great question. I don&rsquo;t really know myself.</p>

<p>If you know french, here is a reflexion essay I made in highschool for my
philosophy course:
<a href="https://files.thetrevor.tech/trevor/misc/qui-suis-je-philos.pdf">https://files.thetrevor.tech/trevor/misc/qui-suis-je-philos.pdf</a></p>

<p>I wanted to start off by explaining the <code>whoami</code> Linux (gnu coreutils) command first. But I&rsquo;m sure it&rsquo;s self explanatory. Computer systems have users. The command just prints who is the user running the command.</p>

<p>But well&hellip; who am I ? That&rsquo;s one of
philosophy&rsquo;s most-searched questions.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>So, linux and other operating systems use files.
You might have heard the expression
<em>&ldquo;On Linux, everything is a file.&rdquo;</em></p>

<p>And Linux uses lots of files. And if everyone
had the same rights to all files, it&rsquo;d be a mess.
Unprivileged users would be able to edit critical system files.</p>

<p><em>small detour:</em></p>

<p>So, in conclusion folks, applying personifying traits and giving &lsquo;rights&rsquo;
to computer programs to do whatever they want <strong>will</strong> create trouble!
I&rsquo;m talking to you, Github! No reason at all to change from <em>master</em>
to <em>main</em>. Completely absurd.</p>

<p><em>detour ends here</em></p>

<p>So the <code>ext4</code> filesystem has permission on files. I can get the permission
of a file using the <code>ls</code> command with some fancy options:</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p><small>but one without headphones
</small></p>

<p>Technically, I did get earphones.
But I just got a kinda severe ear infection from which I am just recovering and it has been a wild ride.</p>

<p>One of my ears used to be plugged but I didn&rsquo;t do much about it until it started to hurt.
I went to a party and then left early because one of my ears was practically burning, or at least that&rsquo;s what it felt like.
Next day I went to the doctor and he told me that I had an ear infection. But this doctor showed me what was inside my ear.
And in the other one too. The difference was clear.
The ear conduct in the bad ear was very small and red, there were little pimples inside it which were just inflammation. It certainly hurt. Plus, the <em>timbre</em> was barely visible.</p>

<p>And he gave me a shit-load of meds, and now I have to apply some eardrops every 8 hours plus other pills and such. And now it doesn&rsquo;t hurt, so that&rsquo;s good!
And I&rsquo;m flying right now and wrote this as the plane was landing,
which is a completely unnecessary comment yet one
I chose to make.</p>

<p>Anyways, the subtitle of this blog post is <em>one without headphones</em>.
I chose not to bring my in-ear headphones because they are very uncomfortable and they might have been the cause to the infection in
the first place. So I chose not to bring them at all. But in the plane I was offered some. At first I thought of just saying no, but two people around me said yes so I kinda had to go with it, you know,

		<title>Changing your device's MAC address is risky.</title>

		<guid>https://blog.thetrevor.tech/dont-change-mac-addr.html</guid>
		<pubDate>Sun, 22 May 2022 09:02:54 -0500</pubDate>
		<description><![CDATA[ <p>At least that was certainly my experience with it.</p>

<p>I recently installed macchanger <a href="#references">[0]</a>, a utility to&hellip; yes! change your mac address.</p>

<p>A MAC address stands for <em>Media Access Control address</em>. It is a unique identifier address used for network interface controllers (NICs, according to Wikipedia). So your LAN controller and your WiFi controllers have MAC addresses.</p>

<p>But companies and governments have standardized the way in which unique MAC addresses are set. I could, in theory, get into an insecure network and know how many devices are from X or why company. The FCC or some other organization assigns &lsquo;blocks&rsquo; that companies can use in order to set these MAC addresses. I think MAC addresses are used in network routers (e.g. the one your ISP gives you) to keep track of who has this or that IP address.</p>

<p>So as I sad in the beginning of this post, I tried changing my MAC address.
Because as of now, I could connect to my network and possibly know that this or that device is or this or that brand.
Which, in my opinion, is creepy as fuck.
So why not be more privacy minded ? So yeah, I tried changing my MAC address to a random one.</p>

<p>So you run the command. Nothing happens, it says that you should try using the <code>--help</code> flag, so I do. There is a <strong>random</strong> flag, just what I need. I do it. It tells me that I&rsquo;m missing something.
I read the manpage.
You have to specify the network adapter.
So I run <code>ip a</code>.
my computer is connected through an ethernet cable. I get the adapter name. I put it at the end of my command. Now I get permission denied. Fair enough, just use <code>sudo !!</code>. and it works!
Now I have another MAC address. But guess what ?</p>

I had a &lsquo;fiesta de cereal&rsquo; (yes, a cereal party) !
Everyone just brought a ton of sugary cereals, milk, almond milk,
other kinds of liquids that are called milk but I don&rsquo;t think
are actually milk, toppings, spoons, bowls, and glasses for drinking
and apparently serving the cereal !?</p>

was supposed to bring cereal and other stuff but I did not.</p>

<p>But now I feel bored. Yet with self-guilt, because I am not doing
what I am supposed to. I have some not-yet-done calculus assignments
that are not difficult, yet too easy. And that doesn&rsquo;t motivate me
to keep on going. I&rsquo;ve probably already passed the subject, and now
I just need to take the final exam and if I want finish those

<p>Cheese Garlic Bread</p>

<p>*** Please note that I have written down the expected questions as TIP.</p>

<p>You make your own fluffy bread, and the bread you eat when it&rsquo;s warm is really delicious.
The combination of the subtle garlic scent and the ever-stretching mochi cheese is the best.
It&rsquo;s not difficult to knead so let&rsquo;s make it together~</p>

<p>*** Weighing is scale (g), rice spoon (tbsp), teaspoon (tsp) weighing.</p>

<p>[Diameter 22cm]
✤ Ingredients for dough
  -200g Bread flour
  -1 Egg (can be omitted/replaced with milk)
  -20g Sugar (2tbsp)
  -4g Instant yeast (1tsp)
  -3g Salt (1tsp flat)
  -80ml Warm milk

<p>10.28.03</p>

<p>8:13pm. I need to think of something to occupy my mind. Easy enough
now I just need an idea…</p>

<p>9:48pm. I’m a little intoxicated, not gonna lie. So what if it’s not even 10pm and it’s a Tuesday night? What? The Kirkland facebook is open on my computer desktop and some of these people have pretty horrendous facebook pics.
I almost want to put some of these faces next to pictures of farm animals and have people vote on which is more attractive. It’s not such a great idea and probably not even funny, but Billy comes up with the idea of comparing two people from the facebook, and only sometimes putting a farm animal in there. Good call Mr. Olson! I think he’s onto something.</p>

cups of american medium-roasted coffee from <em>Garat</em>. and i ate
it with some cookies. maybe too many cookies. Then I started

<p>And the coffee kinda made me happy. I&rsquo;ve never felt this alive before.</p>

<p>Like ideas just flow into my head and I execute them. Or maybe I&rsquo;m just
being very reactive to my vices. Since, yes, being on instagram for like
five hours straight is not healthy. Also, I got on a call with another
friend and helped him out on a school project which I hadn&rsquo;t even started
at the time,
then got him to let me join his team. The code was

crisp lyrics:</p>

<p><a href="https://youtu.be/g5W7Dg_Lof4">Waste my Time - Crystal Casino Band</a> (youtube)</p>

<p>Oddly enough, this song appeared as an <em>advert</em> in an instagram story. I was just bored at a party after a while and I started using my phone and then lo and behold some radio frequencies that we humans interpret as sound and my brain - me - has appreciated it.</p>

<p>I&rsquo;ve just never found such a relatable song as of now. Is this happiness ? Does it transfer sadness? Not sure, yet.</p>

<p>There&rsquo;s the <code>fc-list</code> command.
This binary is installed with the <code>fontconfig</code> package on Arch Linux.</p>

<p>But if you don&rsquo;t want to install <code>1.1 MB</code> of not-so-useful
stuff, you can list your installed fonts by going to this directory:</p>

<p><code>/usr/share/fonts</code></p>

<p>then you can run something like <code>tree</code>. There will be several folders and
a ton of <code>.ttf</code> files.
my dir listing looks like this:</p>

<p><pre><code>&gt; ls /usr/share/fonts

<p>The film tests the boundaries at which we will conserve

Danish women aren&rsquo;t expected to fart randomly at a supermarket or
in front of a male friend, are they ? Pretty embarassing if you
ask me. I don&rsquo;t understand why she didn&rsquo;t go to the store bathroom;
maybe there wasn&rsquo;t one&hellip;</p>

<p>Of course, we shall discuss other things. Like the fact that she
didn&rsquo;t want to tell her friend that she was actually busy and
instead held a relatively long conversation with her friend.</p>

<p>Okay, so I just got back from Veracruz. As usual, I am procrastinating
and not doing my calculus assignment; instead, I&rsquo;ll tell you about
a story about entropy, destiny, and I do not know what else.</p>

<p>Okay, so I was in Veracruz, up until Saturday. On Saturday I went away
- with my family - to Tlaxcala, about halfway to where I live.
On Sunday we continued
the route and got to my house. Then we unpacked, my parents told me
to actually get all my stuff up to my room so that they wouldn&rsquo;t take up
that much space in the house. Then we rested for a little bit and
went away to eat, since there wasn&rsquo;t much food in the house. We had
been away for about a week.</p>

<p>Then, while we were in the car, I realized
I was <strong>not</strong> wearing my seatbelt. Weird thing was that this SUV always
beeps with a very fucking high pitch when someone does not have their seatbelt
on.</p>

<p>e.g. <a href="https://blog.thetrevor.tech">https://blog.thetrevor.tech</a>. Yes, I kinda own the whole domain!
I now have a revamped git repo at <a href="https://git.thetrevor.tech">https://git.thetrevor.tech</a> !</p>

<p>Anyways, I&rsquo;m getting very off-topic. For some time now I&rsquo;ve been
wanting to have a video streaming platform that allows you to
view videos from my server, without youtube or vimeo or peertube
or whatever. I found about peertube through Luke Smith&rsquo;s instance
in which he hosts some exclusive &ndash; yet still free - content.</p>

<p>Which sometimes forced me to instead go to that site instead of youtube
since sometimes he just won&rsquo;t altogether post any new videos on youtube
but will on peertube.</p>

<p>I also knew about odysee through Mental Outlaw. Not that mental outlaw
is bad or anything, but I don&rsquo;t like that much the decentralized
platform that consumes a ton of resources on your <strong>client</strong> web

<p>Especially if you have something to do with it.</p>

<p>Truth is weird. Humans lie. I try not to lie. I try to be
plainly honest most of the time. I try not to cheat on
exams. I try not to look at the exam answers even when my
friends would give them all to me without any academic
repercussions.</p>

<p>But when the truth affects your past, your situation,
your view of life. You kinda die inside. You oughtta accept
that sometimes you just aren&rsquo;t right and maybe you&rsquo;re
fucking wrong.</p>

<p>I fucked up, I guess. I think that you were definitely right,
Gaby. No problem. But it is hard accepting the truth.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hola, este es uno de mis primeros posts en español. Este es un texto originalmente publicado en <a href="#referencias">0</a>.</p>

<p>Decía Schopenahuer que una vez quedan resueltas todas las necesidades que la &ldquo;voluntad&rdquo; exige a las personas, a estas no les quedará más en la vida que el sinsentido, el desánimo, el ocio. La necesidad, el deseo de algo, es aquello que dota de propósito, rumbo y significado a nuestras existencias. Por ejemplo, si no sabes qué hacer con tu vida ten hijos y obtén un sentido para tu existencia, uno dado por default biológico.</p>

<p>Al mismo tiempo, filosofías como el budismo enseñan que estos deseos que la &ldquo;voluntad&rdquo; impone, pueden representar la cárcel de nuestras consciencias individuales.</p>

<p>El vagabundo y el despierto tienen algo en común: son seres marginados de los parámetros sociales; el propósito y significado de sus vidas es sobrevivir a la incertidumbre de encarar su propia existencia.</p>

<p>Es una cuestión de perspectivas: afronto el sinsentido de la realidad haciendo conscientes mis deseos animales, o bien, soy feliz con el breve goze que me brinde la satisfacción de mis necesidades y pulsiones, al igual que el traidor en Matrix elige los placeres de un mundo ficticio que despertar en la crudeza de una realidad que no le brinda satisfacciones externas.</p>

<p>Podríamos decir que la sociedad del siglo XXI ha resuelto sus necesidades básicas, al menos en la cultura de occidente, pero tal como indica la piramide de Maslow, hay luego otras necesidades tanto afectivas, de autoestima y autorrealización. ¿Vivimos en una sociedad que nos alienta a realizarnos y encontrarnos a nosotros mismos?</p>

<p>Creamos un mundo que enaltece la competitividad con otros seres humanos, que romantiza la meritocracia, al mismo tiempo la ansiedad y depresión han alcanzado picos tan altos que lo que consideramos una moda en realidad se trata de una epidemia. ¿Coincidencia? No lo creo.</p>

<p> Ya nuestras necesidades de simios salvajes están resueltas al punto que ahora llegamos a buscar la satisfacción del capricho, del simio vanidoso y las necesidades inventadas por el marketing. Ahora afrontamos de cara el vacío, la inseguridad de nuestros egos.
Ya no hay que salir a cazar ni ir a la guerra, ahora enfrentamos nuestra propia soledad frente a un mundo que no comprendemos, pero al que tratamos de adaptarnos desesperadamente mediante sus estándares de &ldquo;éxito&rdquo;.  Quizá por eso buscamos el mayor número de distracciones posibles, al igual que el citado traidor en Matrix, que le doten un sentido artificial a nuestra existencia: el placer, el aturdimiento de los sentidos.</p>

<p>Y todo este paradigma no es sino un nuevo mercado que explotar: el mercado del aburrimiento, del vacío existencial que busca satisfacerse con un iphone de miles de dólares; la avalancha de series, películas, videojuegos en las que olvidarnos por un día más.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Netflix genre codes</p>

<p>The following explanation is in Spanish.
Should be pretty self explanatory even for non-Spanish speakers.</p>

<p>just replace the code in the urls for the ones you&rsquo;d like to search for.</p>

<p>Van a poner en la barra de búsqueda de su explorador
https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/
Después del “genre/” van a ingresar el código de la categoría que quieren ver, ejemplo:</p>

<p>“Steamy thrillers” o sea misterio cachondo el código es 972 ergo en su barra buscadora van a ingresar:
https://www.netflix.com/browse/genre/972
Y ya ahí les va a salir un catálogo que incluye
-Basic Instinct
-Addicted
-Sliver, etc, etc.</p>

<p>Así que, si ustedes ya sabían y es noticia vieja, si ya los vimos, para los demás aquí va la lista de códigos.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>I have a problem. I&rsquo;m a linux junkie. I&rsquo;d like to ssh into my
home-server from any network. This means networks that don&rsquo;t allow
port 22. My institution&rsquo;s network only allows port 80 and 443 (and
maybe vpn ports).</p>

<p>So I think what I need is a proxy server. A proxy is what is sounds
like. It&rsquo;s an intermediary between me and the target server. But
it can work through http and use other protocols (in theory).</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>just about four minutes ago I stumbled upon a good friend of mine, Nacho. He was with her friend, Betzabé. I couldn&rsquo;t remember the name. Nor did she remember mine. So we did not salute. Then Cindy arrived. I did remember Cindy&rsquo;s name. Then I asked them about where the <em>Auditorium 1</em> was. Apparently I had fucked up. It was in the high school building, not in undergrad. Then I told Betzabe hello, and sincerely said that I couldn&rsquo;t remember her name. &ldquo;Betzabé&rdquo;, she told me. She confessed she didn&rsquo;t remember mine either.</p>

<p>So this story / blog post shall be meant to be used for future reference when trying to remember Betzabè&rsquo;s name. Betzabé. <em>Betzabé</em>. <strong>Betzabé</strong>. <strong><em>Betzabé</em></strong>. Her name is Betzabé. Almost all of the times I&rsquo;ve encountered Nacho I&rsquo;ve also encountered with Betzabé. Weird name. Three syllables. or Betza, maybe ? Nah, I&rsquo;ll confuse her with someone who&rsquo;s actually referred to as Betza. Are you though ? Are you referred to as Betza, Betzabé ?</p>

<p>Who knows, lol. Just a fun story I felt like writing I guess. Back to the
<code>always-late-cause-we're-inmexico-and-stuff.</code></p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>So, as of yesterday I was running a git over ssh server.
Which isn&rsquo;t even a server <em>per se</em>, since it just runs
software that was already installed on my system. (<code>ssh</code>)</p>

<p>But this approach isn&rsquo;t very useful. It does not allow
me to update my git repositories (including
my blog) through restricted networks, such
as the institution I study at. Port 22 is indeed
restricted.</p>

<p>So I thought, I&rsquo;ve always seen that https/ssh/zip button
link thing on github. Why can&rsquo;t I do that ? Isn&rsquo;t https
like allowed on almost any network ? So I started investigating.</p>

<p>According to the git-scm [0] reference manual, there are other
ways to host servers. One of them is using a CGI script that
runs server-side.</p>

<p><code>CGI</code> stands for <em>Common Gateway Interface</em>.

		<title>Actually unmounting and removing power off HDDs</title>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>On windows 10, when ejecting a hard disk drive, it will stop
spinning. That is nice. It, of course, unmounts the partitions
before.</p>

<p>Linux does not do this automatically, at least not my minimalist
setup that only uses <code>dmenu</code>,<code>lsblk</code>,<code>mount</code>,<code>umount</code> and a little
of <code>grep</code>/<code>sed</code>/<code>other text-editing tools</code>.</p>

<p>When unmounting a drive using <code>umount</code> it merely unmounts the disk
partitions. It DOES NOT manage power, as far as I know.</p>

<p>To remove power from the HDD, I use a tool named <code>hdparm</code>, used to
set HDD parameters through the shell. The package should
be installed by default on
<a href="https://archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/hdparm/">archlinux</a>,
<a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/hdparm/">this is the project page</a>
(it has adware).</p>

<p>Anyways, to set the HDD params you need to be root. I don&rsquo;t know how
to set the permissions so that a normal user can do this, but I&rsquo;m not

		<title>Finding empty directories</title>

		<pubDate>Wed, 30 Mar 2022 17:53:43 -0600</pubDate>
		<description><![CDATA[ <p>based on this article: <a href="https://www.linuxshelltips.com/find-and-delete-empty-directories-in-linux/">https://www.linuxshelltips.com/find-and-delete-empty-directories-in-linux/</a></p>

<p>Problem is: I have a linux shell script that lets me mount hard drives,
usb, and other storage devices. But if I have already mounted
some storage device and it has a lot of folders, my command will
keep looking for empty folders where other storage devices can
be mounted. In other words, I have a directory <code>/media/</code> where all
the folders for external devices are created. I mount my big HDD
with a ton of folders to - let&rsquo;s say - <code>/media/HDD_0</code>. Now it is
available and there are thousands upon thousands of files available
under <code>/media/HDD_0</code>. Now I want to mount <strong>another</strong> device. What
my script does if find empty folders under <code>/media/</code> but it will
find it recursively.</p>

<p>So the solution is using the <code>-maxdepth n</code> option for the <code>find</code> command.
This allows you to set a maximum depth in which to look. Pretty
self-explanatory, right ? So in other words, if I give <code>find</code> a
starting point of <code>/media/</code> it won&rsquo;t go more than <code>n</code> folders
recursively. That&rsquo;s it.</p>

<p>I am addicted to <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com">hacker news</a></p>

<p>Or maybe I am just too much of an asshole to want to talk to my friends.</p>

<p>I don&rsquo;t have anything to say. I&rsquo;ve recoursed back into using my phone
more often, and <em>not</em> leaving it behing. I used to leave it behind
when going to the bathroom, for a walk or just for anything, actually.</p>

<p>Yet today I was very worried. I really liked someone, I told her that
I liked her but she was in shock. I didn&rsquo;t see her again until like
four hours later. I tried to talk to her but I guess she didn&rsquo;t want to.</p>

<p>So yeah, she does not like me. Yes, indeed.</p>

<p>Anyways, that has somewhat something to do with the black points over
the orange background. Yes, I am referring to hacker news. Specifically,
the points I have accumulated on my profile [0].</p>

each one and then left. Eventually, I clicked on the &lsquo;about&rsquo; page and started
reading the &lsquo;wait but who&rsquo;. Very meta web-site. This about page acknowledges
the hurdles of maintaining a website whilst working a (maybe?) full-time job.</p>

It works over https, aka firewalls don&rsquo;t tell me no. I had some respect for Github.</p>

then created a bare git repo and pushed to that.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Yesterday - well, technically the day before yesterday a.k.a. <em>antier</em> in Spanish -
me and some friends were sharing stories of how we got into Tecbot, the
robotics team I am a member of. We were
tired after a long day of working, testing the robot; building stuff; realizing
that X or Y doesn&rsquo;t work; trying to find x or y thing for this problem; then
realizing again that it was there the whole time behind some backpacks or whatever.</p>

<p>Anyways, we got to this kid. His name is Velasco. He is in 2nd semester of high
school. In other words, he&rsquo;s a freshman. He tried to get into tecbot since
middle school, in 9th grade. People
referred him to X teacher. Teacher did not respond his emails. None. Nada. none
at all. Maybe his institutional teacher account had some corporate spam
email filters so maybe he never actually received it ! So he got tired and
eventually got into the high school were the robotics team was.</p>

<p>But this was all during the pandemic so he barely got to be in the
high school buildings.</p>

<p>He tried emailing him again. And again. He seemed busy. He did not respond.

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Shame on me. Shame on my team. I lead the software team @ tecbot. Includes
programming.</p>

<p>Pneumatics did not work. The compressor would not turn on.</p>

<p>We did not have any good solenoids to test it on.</p>

<p>Guess the culprit. Me, myself, and I.</p>

<p>I never created a solenoid object. If I don&rsquo;t use pneumatics, the
thread to keep the compressor at the necessary pressure will never start.</p>

<p>AAAHHHHhhhh! shame on me ! shame on wpilib ! how dare you guys code
that in ?</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hello there. I use spotify. My dad pays for it.</p>

<p>It allows me to listen to almost any popular artists and songs, even indie
creators are there to! I do not use the podcast features.</p>

<p>I doubt that I have found &lsquo;good&rsquo; songs through Spotify ? But I might
be wrong. My <em>liked songs</em> playlist is like 215 songs long, not bad I guess.</p>

<p>But yeah, a lot of consumption. Remember what happened to spotify like
less than a week ago ? Well, let me remind you.
Spotify servers went down for whatever reason.</p>

<p>You open the app, your phone is connected to the internet. You want to
listen to some <strong>downloaded</strong> songs. The app pings the auth server, doesn&rsquo;t
respond; logs you out. You are now unable to access any of your spotify music.</p>

<p><strong>YOUR</strong>. Yours? Your music? Really yours ? doesn&rsquo;t sound like it.
You weren&rsquo;t doing anything wrong. You are a paying customer who gives
them money on a monthly basis through a platform that allows you to download
songs and audio. But restricted. You were not pirating anything. Yet you

<p><strong>Assuming you use the Network Manager daemon to manager network connections, follow
this procedure:</strong></p>

<p>go to this path: as root
<pre><code>/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections
</code></pre>
Then try listing the directory with ls. you should see
a list of *.nmconnection files.</p>

<p>open the files and there will be the password and auth specific stuff.</p>

<h1>On feelings</h1>

<a name="today"></a>
<h2>today</h2>

<p>Today. I woke up sunday twenty-seventh, twenty twenty-two at about twelve hours and thirteen minutes.</p>

<p>My parents attempted to wake me up earlier but were partially unsuccessful. I dont&rsquo;t remember much about what I was thinking about whilst still in bed. Point is, I woke up. I went to the bathroom. Maybe I peed. I put water on my face and rubbed it in with my fingers, feeling the oil kinda come off and stick to my finger tips. I then washed my hands with my blue soap.</p>

<p>After that I checked my phone. Nothing important. Just messages that are kind of irrelevant to me on a Sunday noon. I then proceedes to go downstairs - to the kitchen. I then though about what to eat. The bread was out, in its plastic bag, beside the fruits. The toaster was not there. I walked into the pantry, not much to eat or at least that I&rsquo;d be interested in eating.</p>

<p>Then I though, why not make some <em>tostadas españolas</em> ? And place a couple of sunny-side-up eggs on top.</p>

<p>tostadas españolas is a Spanish dish that consists mainly of raw garlic, tomatoes, and toasted bread. Like the bread you use for a PJ sandwich. You grind the tomato so you get this partially liquid, partially solid cream. You put in a bowl. I don&rsquo;t filter out the seeds. I get some garlic teeth (not sure how you say it), you peel off the skin, cut each of them in half. Then toast the bread to your liking.
After the bread is toasted, put on some plated, take the cut side of the garlic and spread it around whilst holding it with your fingers.
Spread! The heat of the toast makes some of the garlic come off.
Spread it all around like
some marmalade / jelly.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>A DNS stands for Domain Name System.
It is simply a protocol for getting the IP address of any given domain name.</p>

<p>Usually, your Internet Service Provider (aka ISP) will provide you with one which may be a little slow,
or even may block certain websites.</p>

<p>Below is a guide on how to set your DNS to Cloudflare. Any of these
configurations can be (in theory) applied to all your network, but if you want there&rsquo;s nothing stopping you from doing this for a single device (just search &ldquo;how to set up DNS [device name])</p>

<p>DNS Cloudflare</p>

<p><a href="https://1.1.1.1">https://1.1.1.1</a></p>

<ol>
<li>For IPv4, replace the existing addresses with:   - 1.1.1.1   - 1.0.0.1 </li>
<li>For IPv6, replace the existing addresses with:
 2606:4700:4700::1111  2606:4700:4700::1001</li>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hello there! Well, I was technically always here
but guess what? My computer stopped working.</p>

<p>I think I messed up some docker (compose?) configuration
and it basically adds an IP address to a network
interface which should be the one for my local area
network and my computer was probably confused where to route
incoming packets but I kinda just did a quick fix.</p>

<p>not sure if it&rsquo;ll survive after a reboot, since
the problem has persisted (as of now) across
reboots. But yeah we&rsquo;re back.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p><strong>this is probably a rant, discretion is advised but not obligatory.</strong></p>

<p>Hello. It&rsquo;s been a while since I wrote something public.</p>

<p>I&rsquo;ve been in school - physically - and haven&rsquo;t got much time to do stuff.
Actually, that&rsquo;s a lie. I&rsquo;ve been in school but have gotten tons of
free time. But let&rsquo;s not shame ourselves, right ? I was supposed to
start blogging just when I turned on my computer today.</p>

<p>But I just spent an hour with bloat on my computer. Opening chrome,
converting an email to an image but first trying to save it as HTML but turns
out the HTML is js-filled with shit that doesn&rsquo;t even contain the email,
then uploading it to my server (<a href="https://trevcan.duckdns.org/files/%3DnTO%2B%27dKwl.png">look, it&rsquo;s live!</a>.</p>

<p>and then thinking that I should set up a website that uses mediagoblin because why tf not?
Well, because peertube is too fucking hard to set up. But maybe mediagoblin is too.</p>

<p>They got all these ton-shit dependencies. I mean, why the fuck do you need a MySQL-professional
grade database running on my system for it to work. I&rsquo;ve tried the docker  instances for both
mediagoblin and peertube but it&rsquo;s just a lot of software stacks!  I mean I&rsquo;d love to have something

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>Hello, I am bored. Also, I&rsquo;ve thought of kinda making my own daily blog entries
so here is one!</p>

<p>Today, well, more like yesterday since it&rsquo;s already midnight. I&rsquo;m actually
waiting for my other laptop to finish copying a disk partition to another
disk. I&rsquo;m using the one and only, legendary&hellip; dISk d3stroy3r !!! Yes,
that&rsquo;s right, I saw that in a Luke Smith Video! the thing is, I was
setting up the archivebox software which is basically a self-hosted
archive / wayback machine, pretty self-explanatory. I set it up with docker
and after a while of restarting it for some weird reason the home directory
of a new user I&rsquo;ve created was being chmoded by docker or the software
and idk really know what happened. Eventually, I figured out that for some
stupid reason I had no disk space left on my home partition. But it only
marked like 30 gigs used, meaning that for some weird reason I didn&rsquo;t
extend the partition ? So i got out my trusty red usb with ventoy on it
(lets you boot multiple OSes easily) and hopped on to gparted. It&rsquo;s
literally just raw debian ( i think?, i&rsquo;ve never tried it :v )
with gparted installed. it has an old school GUI like windows xp, has
work spaces, you can move windows around. a pretty solid desktop
environment. So, anyways, back to the story. I opened gparted and there

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>this file contains a simple list of project ideas which may include
software projects with a small aim: providing something that isn&rsquo;t
currently available.</p>

<p>If the project is in progress, it&rsquo;ll be listed just after it.</p>

<p>If you have any ideas for projects&hellip;</p>

<ul>
<li>short: short url service with simple GET/POST http requests and
minimalist web UI.</li>
<li>clipme: copy of http://0x0.st . simply receive get/post requests and make
a file publicly available.</li>
<li>archivemoi: web archiver, just like the web archive wayback machine. maybe

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>hey there! I don&rsquo;t know why this came to me but I guess I&rsquo;ve seen
several internet videos in which linuxy users are using a nice, fancy
prompt to search files. Turns out they&rsquo;re using
<a href="https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/">fzf!</a>
, a nice tool to easily search for files in the command line. To some
degree I guess it is like a dmenu prompt but in a command line. So yeah,
by default it acts like a find any file recursively in the current directory,
yes, including hidden files; yet still acts like a standard unix command
that can take input from stdin (standard input) and only show those choices
and of course, prints to stdout the result.</p>

<p>So one can do something like</p>

<p><pre><code>cat &lt;&lt; EOF | fzf
one

regarding this issue. I am merely a teenager so please you have all the right
to ignore this stuff; also, i don&rsquo;t know why i just wrote this paragraph.</p>

<p>Well, let&rsquo;s get to it. Thanks to my respect to myself of privacy and the right
to actually have an annoying private life and talk to people, browse the
internets without actually being spied on and be farmed on as a farm animal
for personal data I have several ads coming up very often. Repeating
themselves. A lot. Literally, <strong>a lot lot lotlotststs</strong>.</p>

<p>The ad that&rsquo;s annoying me the most is Le <em>Grammarly</em>. You&rsquo;ve probably heard of
it if you&rsquo;re a student, unfortunately. I don&rsquo;t have any actual grudge against
spell checkers or whatever but I think taking the things to a much farther
level is bad. You shouldn&rsquo;t be inferring or passive-aggressively suggesting
grammar styles to students. They should write like they want, of course
when turning in an assignment check your spelling and coherence of ideas or
whatever; but that&rsquo;s it! Literally it! I shouldn&rsquo;t have a little shit software
tell me that I&rsquo;ve plagiarized something! If I have, I will definitely know
myself. Okay, maybe if you forget but that&rsquo;s it. Also, I think that these

		<title>Working with git hooks.</title>
		<link>https://blog.thetrevor.tech/git-hooks.html</link>

		<pubDate>Sun, 14 Nov 2021 21:50:43 -0600</pubDate>
		<description><![CDATA[ <p>edit: see end of post.</p>

<p>Hey there fellow read-capable human! I am here to tell you a story about
git hooks. Well, first let&rsquo;s talk a little bit about how remote repos work.</p>

<p>From the little knowledge I think I have, a git server can be run through ssh,
you must create a git user which is in fact the user you login as when pushing
your git object references. Most of the time, this will happen in a bare git
repo. That is, a repo which only contains the contents of what you would
normally expect the
<pre><code>.git
</code></pre>
contents to be. So in fact there&rsquo;s no working directory but only history
changes with reference objects and stuff. But in fact this is probably wrong,
as most people most likely use services such as github.com, gitlab.com,
etcetera. And those websites can show you the files and in fact show you
the &lsquo;working directory&rsquo; of you repo, and the files themselves. So most git
servers you interact with are probably not bare since the aforementioned
services show you the files. So I chose to setup a git server on my home server
, pretty straight forward. Setup some ssh keys to not be spammed or something.

<p>spoilers ahead if that ain&rsquo;t obvious enough.</p>

<p>Hey there, I just watched the movie <a href="https://www.filmaffinity.com/mx/film644257.html">Un beso en el asfalto (2017) <em>filmaffinity.com</em></a>
and it was pretty cool. Weirdly enough, I think that it was hilarious that it
showed surprisingly different perspectives from all angles, even outside the
context of the movie. Hell, it even showed a threatre reading the script,
presenting it with props in front of an audience, and when they were recording
it. It was kinda like Shutter island in the sense that the end is whatever your
brain&rsquo;s interpretation is. So yeah, maybe I&rsquo;ll update this post idk.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>hey there, I hope you are having a nice day.
Today was a much more intersting day than the rest of the week,
I got to actually deploy my <a href="http://trevcan.duckdns.org/blog">blog mirror</a>
and it literally looks exactly like on github, exect that mime types
are not auto-completed like in github, e.g. i can type something like
<pre><code>http://trevcan.github.io/index
</code></pre>
and it will be the same as
<pre><code>http://trevcan.github.io/index.html
</code></pre>
and so on. I guess there&rsquo;s some plugin in <em>nginx</em> that I can use or something.
Should also add https or something, although since I&rsquo;m not hosting any
arbitrary code, it is simply rendering html and css (no js folks!) it shouldn&rsquo;t
be a problem, right?</p>

<p>Well, onto another random thing. There&rsquo;s a problem with

<p>Thankfully, TBA (<em>the blue alliance</em>) has a public read-access (and write, i

<p>I&rsquo;ve been trying out several bloggin systems but none of them seem to work
as I expect them. Well, to be frank, the only blogging systems I&rsquo;ve been
trying are only Jekyll/Github based. The only thing I want is a nice
<a href="https://github.com/tocttou/hacker-blog">hacker-like</a> aesthethic because
why not and minimalist software that doesn&rsquo;t have a ton shit of folders like
Jekyll, <strong>I just don&rsquo;t get why I can&rsquo;t add posts anywhere other than in <code>_posts/</code>!!</strong>.</p>

<p>Also, this is a check to see if this post actually gets built because only the
sample posts have appeared so far !!. <strong>Edit</strong>: You know what?, why not start
doing it right fucking know lol. I guess I&rsquo;ll create a test repo where I can idk
do shit and test <code>blogit</code>.</p>

the problem
[/h]
I&rsquo;ve been using the [https://passwordstore.org] program for quite a while now, about 9 months I&rsquo;d say.
All was going well until about 4 weeks ago. I don&rsquo;t
know what happened, what caused it or why. Pass started acting up, it took from
20 to 30 seconds what used to take literally 1 second. The pinentry-gtk-2
program was taking a whole lot of time to start. So I dug deeper. Eventually I
found out that it definitely had something to do with GnuPG as decrypting
files directly through GnuPG also yielded the same results, after all, pass is
just a bash script that uses gpg encryption and decryption commands. So then I
went searching on the internets and it was pretty bad. I couldn&rsquo;t really find
any information regarding GnuPG besides [0]</p>

<p>I&rsquo;ve tried almost* everything to get gpg up and running but it just,
won&rsquo;t work! I don&rsquo;t know if this was a system upgrade or
something but point is, it just slowed way down. When [b]requesting a password, [/b]
it&rsquo;d take anywhere from 20 to 40 seconds to just show the pinentry binary (the

		<description><![CDATA[ <p>After trying several things to fix encryption and decryption in GnuPG I have no
real hopes. I honestly don&rsquo;t know what to do but to keep asking. I&rsquo;ve searched on
stackoverflow for pinentry and gpg-agent acting up and taking too much time and
I only found one stack overflow question <a href="#references">[0]</a> which didn&rsquo;t get
that close to my issue.
It slows down when using the pinentry-curses, pinentry-gtk-2 binaries.</p>

<p>edit: I found out the problem! Thanks to <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/GnuPG/comments/q2apuh/comment/hpa3m6f/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=web2x&amp;context=3">u/xXbobby123Xx</a> for discovering the solution,
and this GNU forum: <a href="https://dev.gnupg.org/T3240">https://dev.gnupg.org/T3240</a> it appears to be a bug in gnome-keyring.</p>

<p><strong>Uninstalling the gnome-keyring is the solution for now.</strong></p>

<p>there appear to be 2 dev.gnupg.org forum posts:
- https://dev.gnupg.org/T3240
- https://dev.gnupg.org/T4592 (this url is kinda broken but didn&rsquo;t use to be)</p>
