@allquixotic I'm starting a massive personal project to overhaul my personal conduct and personality, just as if I was rewriting a major software application. It is my intention that the "DragonLord" you'll see a few months from now will be an entirely different person than the "DragonLord" you're seeing today.
huh... for wanting a web-based libvirt admin console, this thing sure is heavy: archipelproject.org
I got it up and running but it took me like 90 minutes and I'm not entirely sure if it's worth all the trouble just so I can administer my one Windows VM
> In 1998, ISO came up with some standards for pens. ISO 12157 is about ballpoints. 12157-1 deals with refill sizes. Parker ballpoint refills became one of the standards size, namely G2 (Not to be mixed with Pilot G2s). There is D1, A1 and other types. Physical sizes are in this standard. 12157-2 is the strength of the ink to removal such as chemical, water, sunshine and so on. So if a refill is ISO 12157-2 certified, then you can safely sign a document knowing that it will be harder to remove (not impossible) than a non ISO 12157-2 ballpoint refill.

the party's over, when first getting a cell phone spammers would respect your minutes $$$, and the idea that it was against some rules somewhere to call a cellular number (because it would cost the person called). Now fully converted off of landline to cell, they are just as persistant and obnoxious as they were on the landline.
After researching many different ways to nuke them, i went with software that off-hooks the phone (answers) then hangs up on them. I put them all under a single contact (just how many numbers can a single contact have?). They have thier own rigntone "hit the road Jack" and the phone Talks out "killing spam" in between the 1st and second ring, and hangs up on them.
Hanging up on them does not seem to discourage them or whatever machine might be used to call (automatic calling is illegal in california too), it has kept them from recording a voicemail.
With all the spammers and telemarketers I've dealt with, you need to actually be the person they're "calling", then announce you do not want to be called, then hang up.
Some of them have been told so many times I could sue them, as there is also a provision within the law to get 500$+ for calls of these types. 2 days piddling with a court system (plus months waiting for dates) and the court fees, and finding them cross state where the rules are different , ahh not worth it. Some have been given a legal loophole, political and charity organisations are not required to follow "do not call" lists.
That part is sort of humerous that after making the laws the "church" and the "state" are not required to follow them :-)
(2 of the most powerfull institutions, making sure the laws they make for others , again, do not apply to them)
@allquixotic Any idea why when I pair the Sony Bluetooth headphones to my laptop it shows up twice, once as regular headphones, and once as a headset?
If I switch default to be the headset, it lets me use the built-in microphone but is fixed to "telephone quality" sound. If I switch default to be the headphones, it's the higher quality sound, but no microphone.
I can't use both modes at the same time
Never heard of this before.
Tried looking around online but couldn't get a search term that wouldn't just give me links to try and sell me headphones, or I'd just see posts saying "They just don't work!"
> Each A2DP service, of possibly many, is designed to uni-directionally transfer an audio stream in up to 2 channel stereo, either to or from the Bluetooth host.
I do not know what's more annoying: a mouse that randomly decides to doubleclick if you do a single left click; a password manager plugin that doesn't suggest logins anymore; or a Chrome browser that doesn't want to remember your account after logging out
@NateKerkhofs Good idea. (normally that means the button is wearing out... sometimes you have something caught there so you can lift it a bit and blow on it/stick a toothpick in there)
