Me trying to practice my handwriting, specifically cursive, using my new pen. Its an extra fine stiff steel nib. So while it gives me less control over varying line width it does let me focus on my form instead. I'm seeing some improvement but I have a long ways to go until it looks "nice". Keep in mind I havent even attempted to write cursive in several decades too, when I do write its always print.
by the explanation I just gave then pursuit in any knowledge is always pursuit in the divine, since the divine is everything.
#linux users I need some help. On your main desktop linux box, if you open up a new terminal (and if in xwindows maxamize it), what is your row and column count? I'm asking for a game im building to get an idea of just how large i want to support up to.
I normally have pretty atrocious handwriting. I've been spending some time lately trying to practice and improve my hand writing and decided to start with my signature. I wanted to try to come up with a slightly fancy prettier version of my signature. This is finally what I came up with. Not entirely happy with the F but its the best I could come up with so far.
I also included a picture of my old signature for comparison.

Please consider writing your hashtags in upper camelcase so screen readers have a chance at figuring them out.
#whyistayonmastodon sounds like an giant undecipherable mess of sounds.
#WhyIStayOnMastodon reads out "Why I Stay On Mastodon" 😄
(Reason #44 I stay here: my previous requests like this have been generally well-received, proving that most people are awesome.)
So finally got the more expensive fountain pen in made by TWSBI, All the others I showed before were knock offs, much cheaper, by wings. The knock offs were nice but the original certainly writes way better. Here are the two side by side, both using the same ink (OX Blood). Not only was the flow much more consistent from the TWSBI but the ink actually looks noticeably darker despite having the same stroke width. Both pens use Extra Fine Nibs. The TWSBI is the clear winner even at 5x the cost.
The difference in color was so significant I thought maybe I just didnt mix the ink before filling the cheaper pen. Nope, even after dumping the ink and refilling it with freshly mixed ink the color is exactly the same.

Ubuntu 12.04 Forensics - Disk to Compressed Image Using gzip dc3dd
This video is part of a series on Computer Forensics using Ubuntu 12.04. In this Lecture Snippet I use the dc3dd utility to copy a 2GB flash drive partition ...
While I find truth in this statement I'm not sure many others would.

@freemo Yeah, it's a really, really neat exhibit. I haven't been there for years. I need to go back- I have vacation beginning of November, and it's an easy get for me. I'll go back to the museum and take some pictures and share them! :D
Another Aurelian ancient coin just arrived. The condition is amazing.

I've been working on reading the papers that make up SuperLU (a direct sparse linear solver) and I stumbled across this list of freely available linear algebra software - good to have around!

My #phylogenetics professor wants us to work with BioEdit. This program is:
* #proprietarysoftware, even though free (as in free beer)
* Only works with Windows, can't even manage to install it on VM with Wine.
* **is unmaintained since 2009**.
Please #FOSS and #science community, help me find something I can work it that doesn't feel like wearing a shoe filled with beans, or at least install this thing... seems like winxp is slow up to uselessness in VM for some reason.
Thanks!

I've just redesigned my experimental garden's shape. I couldn't stand all those keyholes and weird paths anymore.
Wrote a small article about it, which is like a long toot with more pictures, in case anyone is curious about it: http://www.arteteco.com/20shapes/

when I first ran D&D, my grandmother, who had bought fully into the IT'S SATANISM hype, insisted on sitting and watching the first session
about an hour in, she threw her hands up and yelled 'THIS IS JUST MATH' and stormed off
