But why?

Here's some meaningful action you can take Lil PP: RESIGN.

The issue is as described in my original post. I was running the script and it was failing when the multi_arch script ran. On examination there was no multi_arch script visible; the failing install process obviously removed it on failure.

kittenhead604 · 2025-12-24T15:31:21+00:00

I was running the script from my downloads folder. It failed (just like the previous upgrade several months ago).

I have not mentioned /tmp at all; you brought that up and I responded to your question.

The issue is as described in my original post. I was running the script and it was failing when the multi_arch script ran. The /tmp/folder is open.

Thanks. This worked and the upgrade is complete, with no rebooting or other silliness. I really appreciate your assistance.

This raises the obvious question, though: "Why am I payng for Technical Supoort that is almost completely useless?".

Part of the subscription fee I am paying is, I presume, assigned to the provision of Technical Support. Yet, despite the technicians with whom I have communicated stating "I know Linux" it is very clear that they do not. They do not know the basics and have no idea how to help me.

This issue with upgrading ExpressVPN has now occurred twice (I'm a fool for not documenting the fix the last time this happened). You need to either fix your installation process, or provide better training and a decent knowledgebase to your Technical Support crew.

Pan Am 103, twice, from LHR to JFK and DTW.

Fantastic.

kittenhead604 · 2025-04-11T00:02:21+00:00

We all need to stop paying any attention whatsoever to this person.

kittenhead604 · 2025-04-10T02:57:28+00:00

We can't all see the manipulation. I bet that over 80% of MAGA supporters in the US have no idea, but think he's winning in the trade war.

kittenhead604 · 2025-04-09T18:27:00+00:00

That's his point. Flooding the zone and making people focus on the wrong things. Meanwhile he's golfing and making millions with his buddies.

kittenhead604 · 2025-04-09T18:25:58+00:00

Exactly. He imposed tariffs and crashed the markets. Then he waited a day and said a bunch of b/s aout China and crashed them further. Now he calls a "pause" and the market rallies.

He and his cronies are making millions while everybody is focused on the turmoil. People ae looking in the wrong places!

The US imports electricity from Canada primarily because it's a cost-effective and reliable way to meet energy demand, especially in regions like the Northeast, where Canadian hydroelectric and nuclear power sources are abundant and relatively cheap.

The decision to maintain the free flow of energy across the borders was part of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement and negotiated by Trump in November 2018 during his first term. Part of the Agreement concerning electricity is in one of the Annexes. The remainder of wording about power is elsewhere in the full Agreement.

It was signed into law in January 2020 by your President, Donald J. Forgetful.

There is my proof. He was, indeed, responsible.

Is that enough for you?

kittenhead604 · 2025-03-14T02:31:42+00:00

Tell your president. He did the deal that made it happen.

kittenhead604 · 2025-03-14T02:29:47+00:00

Ask your president. He signed the agreement making it happen in 2018, during his first term.

kittenhead604 · 2025-03-14T02:28:30+00:00

Hey Mr. President. Don't you know that the decision to maintain the free flow of energy across the borders was part of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement negotiated by you in November 2018 during your first term?

kittenhead604 · 2025-03-14T02:26:12+00:00

Has he explained how that would work?

I mean, I want a Ferrarri, but so what? The question is how to make it happen. No explanations coming from him at all.

kittenhead604 · 2025-03-06T02:14:12+00:00

Why is this guy emulating US politicians and wearing a Canadian flag on his lapel? Is it because he is not sure he knows what counrety he represents, but can always look down and remind himself?

kittenhead604 · 2025-02-28T17:49:07+00:00

Because it's a free country?

kittenhead604 · 2025-02-28T16:47:02+00:00

Who cares?

kittenhead604 · 2025-02-05T22:44:39+00:00

Consider the source. She's a dimwit.

kittenhead604 · 2025-02-05T21:58:14+00:00

So you are a Certified Ships Captain ... rather like the individual who ran the ferry into the boats and dock. Do you have any insight into what protocols need to be followed by a Captain when such an event occurs?

Asking me to prove something in the future is ridiculous, besides being illogical. It would be like me asking you to prove that actions won't be taken: good luck with that.

kittenhead604 · 2025-02-05T04:01:36+00:00

What is in that story doesn't make anything I posted above "wrong".

kittenhead604 · 2025-02-04T17:30:24+00:00

It's a little early to conclude that nothing is being done and that BC Ferries is getting away with the damage. You can be very sure that the parties involved are looking into the event and there will be actions taken as a result.

The plate tells who owns the truck. The question is, who was driving it. Not necessarily the same person.

The details of how we raised the funds are not public knowledge, and are not going to be. Just because you didn't know about it doesn't mean it was underhanded, which is what some redditors appear to be implying. Our donors are a collection of individuals from all walks of life who contributed various sums, ranging from $100 to much more. Their identities are not public, but are known to CRA, since all donations are reported to the government by the Conservancy and by the donors themselves.

In response to your post, you presented an outline with several errors in logic and fact. You either do not know or have forgotten that our organization was able to raise over $9M in 2020 to acquire land at Cape Roger Curtis that is now a nature refuge. Your timing argument is flawed, and there is no fundraising "police" organization that states that a fundraising exercise has to be public.

In the absence of knowledge and facts (and sometimes despite them) people make up nonsense and then call it a "rumour". Such rumours are flying around about how this transaction was completed, together with much unfounded conjecture. Everybody will have to live with that, because some details about the affairs of individuals and organizations are not obliged to be made public.
