penultimate conclusion...

not so much that i'm tired,  rather that i feel the path has gone far enough...

eck*

i think i should now find center and focus on health, organization and cleanliness.

perhaps form and function may follow.

i'm still alive, so that's something.

shall we continue to put effort into this thing we know as life, eh ?

well, so what do you guys think of this 'new' blog setup ? :)

i was paying 18/mth in the last form, with 'ghost.'  this is now in 'free' format.  and it allows me to set a 'sensitive' content condition, so i could post some arts and stuff.  like, hmmm ??

old pen stuff

 

old digital art

old, an early watercolor painting for me

i guess we can start there, see what happens, aye.

its like ready spaces for analog times~

like here's where i'm fitting that pen (??)

had this a while, but it may be one of my newer notebooks, relatively

 

so here's a space in 'edc form' for analog time, then 

ideally i'd always be carrying some reading glasses, and this 'awesome hank' (i think) handkerchief would always be with me for wiping them.  front and center here is an e-ink ebook reader with congo ebook currently in progress

justified as i purchased a used copy of a paperback copy of the same book, and admittedly i'm reading the paperback more anyway, cuz real books are just better heh

i found some of the knives i ordered, came with stickers a few times, so this is one of those

but the pen not the knife is the main tool that will hold this space together, see...

this just happens to be where i happen to be in this particular notebook/offline space

 i wonder what if i were inspired to put some effort into creating again...

thoughts.  are fun.  hehe

~related to that last poem~

i had some old art from that same mindspace.  maybe you'd like to see it here in this current blogspace:

oil pastel on some cheap 'copy/printer paper'

it's definitely a different pace~

i even have my desktop's mouse and kb put 'out of reach' right now.

using the 21.5" samsung screen for ps4 right now, which is background, mostly something like music or a movie or something.

i've diverted my pc driving to mobile for now.  the 3 old thinkpads, and a macbook neo, primarily.

have handhelds for gaming, if i can muster, tho i also have a crt and a nice setup for that path too...

but some of the elements are good, like my nice powered speakers, fed by my fosi audio dac q4, which can translate usb digital signal like audio from a laptop or desktop, or optical, i guess, which like my 5 disc yamaha cd player can output too*  hmmm

so, offline is still a thing, i surmise.

"useful to some folks"

this seems handy, and i couldn't remember it, having saved it in a script for convenience sake.  but it works well for keeping screen awake for me in linux.  i'll just share what i use for my script files, short and sweet:

gui-wake.sh:
 #!/bin/bash
xset -dpms; xset s off

gui-unwake.sh:
#!/bin/bash
xset -dpms; xset s on

they are probably self explanatory, but the 'gui-wake.sh' keeps the screen awake, and the 'gui-unwake.sh' puts it back to normal.

 cheers!  (your welcome)

:P

[EDIT]

I had found the main part of this code online at some point but searching now I can't find it.  I had to boot a Thinkpad with the script as I had reinstalled debian to the desktop*

"Nothing is ever easy"

its so hard keeping a system

there's this one poem that sticks in mind more/less vaguely i may recall

...

past the 7 planets
outside each four rings

to the center, to the core
of each and every living being

and from here you'll see the spirals
flowing outward from our god

pick the flowers
count the daisies

remember
ever

each and every seed we planted

you and i
come close to never
breathing in entire
sky

so we sit along the river
sailing ships through time and space

full of every type of creature
below heaven, here on earth

makes me think of membranes
like seran wrap covers all

itself its own universe
just like ours before our birth

===

k, but i should i keep better recording of the 'digital' medias i produce tho

[EDIT]
ya know, i was able to pull that creation from past/memory, but...  i think i was more optimistically idealistic at that time, than i am now.  like i don't think i could have created 'that' poem rn...  ok then, wanted to disclaim that 

[EDIT 2]
Ya know the number series I had started out with, involved reducing 7 to 6, 5, and 4, but beyond that it just returned to one   insofar as numbers go I'd say this poem related to *7 reducing to 4*

[EDIT 3]
Perhaps the number series would shed light on things...

1 2 3 4 7 14 21 28
1 6 28
1 5
