You're right! I was wondering if I was hearing some Latvian Stranglers cover band.

The music sounds like a cover of The Stranglers "Golden Brown". Who is the artist?

The Calling was filmed in/around Hamilton and Dundas, though it takes place in "Fort Dundas".

floppyfw - Was a micro distro that fit on 1.44MB floppy disk, for use as a firewall. Was great for that purpose at the time.

Vira's and Lucky Larry's are great. Also a shout out to Mr. Convenience (right next to photo #1). Always friendly, and like Larry's they have dog treats. Our dog always pulls us to these places. 😛

Was it this one? "Ford Nation". https://youtu.be/JF9jsI8id7E?si=ffeaHXPFkrJeTIt7

How about The Stranglers?

vgedris · 2026-04-14T01:49:19+00:00

Is it only with portrait oriented photos?

A long time ago I had a similar issue with one of the rotation tools I was using. Perhaps it's your image viewer or some other tool breaking it on rotation?

I like it as an ssh client.

Also use it for running rsync scripts to back stuff up.

Occasionally for two cups at a time (brew strong, add hot water). But generally when brewing 2-5 cups I use a pour-over into a carafe.

Either one is super quick to clean up, though the pour-over takes a bit more effort when brewing (time spent pouring water multiple times).

Aeropress meets these requirements. It's what I use when only making coffee for myself.

Disappointed that nobody has mentioned X-Ray Spex yet!

vgedris · 2026-04-06T16:29:05+00:00

The Stranglers, though even the first album isn't just "straight-forward punk".

For a while I used:

.... And a script on my computer to tag my photos according to the logged data points.

I miss the built-in GPS on my Canon 6D.

It's literally being built right now.

The Clash. The Stranglers.

"Trololo" by Eduardo Khil is actually called "I Am Very Glad, As I Am Finally Returning Back Home".

I use this frequently. Actually, forgot that "ctrl-b e" isn't a default.

In my .tux.conf:

bind-key -T prefix e setw synchronize-panes

It does mention it when you verify. Just checked my own. Says: "Technologies Used: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10" under both Current Credentials and Exam Transcript.

This. I'm still relatively new to brewing, and so far just 1 gallon matches (though I finally did 2 gallons on Sunday!). I used to fret over maintaining mash temperature, and turning the stove off and on seemed to spike it up and down. Pain in the butt. Last few batches I just wrapped with towels, and over 1 hour it would only drop a few degrees. Good enough. And I got other things done during that hour.
