Stuffed penguin with egg
2017-08-16T07:29:23Z via Pumpa To: Public CC: Followers
My daughter lost her stuffed penguin (with egg) around E77 at YYZ or the flight AC005.
I wrote to aircanada.com.
She said that she bought it at biodome, Montreal.
Best of luck!

For Cat Babe
2017-08-03T00:26:47Z via Pumpa To: Public CC: Followers
Someone found that my fingerprint of PGP (RSA) can be read as: For Cat Babe (0x4ca7babe)
It is not intentional, but it's good when it is easy to remember. It's sad that 32-bit is not enough to distinguish a key these days, though.
Here, we have a dog, but no cat. Since she became older, she has tendency to stay inside. We accept the exception (it is unusual for our culture. You know, we take off our shoes when we enter inside).Claes Wallin (韋嘉誠) likes this.

/bin -> /usr/bin
2017-07-18T04:49:45Z via Pumpa To: Public CC: Followers
Yeah, this has been brewing for years in Fedora. Overall the page is informative and correct and in particular it explains well why they chose to symlink /bin -> /usr/bin rather than the other way around. The only thing that annoyed me was:The biggest part of Linux software is built with GNU autoconf/automake (i.e. GNU autotools), which are unaware of the Linux-specific /usr split. Maintaining the /usr split requires non-trivial project-specific handling in the upstream build system, and in your distribution's packages.
Well. You call ./configure --prefix=/ instead of ./configure --prefix=/usr. But maybe that's instead a bit of an oversimplification, and anyway I do buy the argument that higher uniformity among packages reduces the maintenance burden.Claes Wallin (韋嘉誠) at 2017-07-18T08:18:26Z

Oh, Mageia did this years ago. So did Archlinux =)

Itadakimasu (Now, I get your soul)
2017-06-23T10:19:07Z via Pumpa To: Public CC: Followers
In Japan, it is common practice for everyone to say "itadakimasu" for each meal. Without saying that, we can't start eating.
The direct translation would be: "Now, I get your soul". It's a very short version of prayer before meals. We recognize "soul" for each food.
I was explained that it's because of Buddhism, but I don't see such a practice in China, Thailand, or India.

The practice is basically between those who eat and those being eaten.
For example, I say "itadakimasu" even if I eat alone.Greetings

In Japan, we say good morning, ohayou!, each other in the morning (usually among family, neighbers,and colleagues).
I thought that it is a common practice around the world.
In Chinese language program, I learned that there is no such practice in China.
It reminds me that in Mainland, they called my name "Xin Bu Yu!" (in Chinese), or asked "Have you eaten?". Well, it might be better than mere greeting, since it can express we can recognize each other explicitly, or can get most important information.Ben Sturmfels likes this.
At least in our family we tend to say "good morning" to family, friends and colleagues, though maybe it should be "have you had coffee?"

I did many clean up; where I saw a compiler warning, I reviewed the code around to see a problem. Most warnings were no problem, but I could find and fix a bug or two. :-)

People talk about "AI". Many professors, researchers don't care about definition or things in detail, it seems.
While someone addresses Free Software (or Open Source, Linux), we have many picky people correcting terms, etc.

https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2017-March/057850.htmlMy Maildir is now on encrypted partition with "g13"
2017-03-02T01:47:52Z via Pumpa To: Public CC: Followers
In GnuPG 2.1, we have "g13" tool for encrypted disk.
It is highly experimental, but the author has been using this tool. I should be the second.
So, for my notebook computer, I introduced an encrypted disk partition for Maildir.
While cryptsetup was suffered by systemd integration, g13 works well manually.
Someday, I will try automounting of SD card with g13.GnuPG 2.1.19 released

In this release, we can use multiple tokens simultaneously with internal CCID driver.
gpg --card-status / --card-edit currently only supports a single token, but signing, decryption, and authentication (SSH) work well with multiple tokens.Debconf18 will be Taiwan! (2018)
