screaming modems: satellite images of earth.
https://rotatef.blogspot.com/2014/09/satellite-images-of-earth.html
Wednesday, September 03, 2014. Satellite images of earth. For a while now, I've wanted a desktop background like xearth, but with updated (near-live) imagery. I've found a bunch of services that won't give me exactly that, but something I can live with. Near Real-Time Data: Rapid Response. Has imagery from a bunch of instruments in satellites. I've had good experience with the Aqua. Images. Two tools on that site that I've tried are. The Worldview image links appear to be stable, and look like. Subset=AE...

screaming modems: apt-cache
https://rotatef.blogspot.com/2015/02/apt-cache.html
Monday, February 16, 2015. The other day I was helping a co-worker set up Ubuntu in VirtualBox, to simulate the production servers. At one point, I told him to search for a package by typing " apt dash cache space search space dash n space . He types it in and says, it didn't work. I walk over to check his display. He's written " apt-gash search -n . I say "You didn't take pre-med in college, you studied CS! It's apt-cache, not apt-gash! He didn't understand what I meant. View my complete profile.

Wednesday, December 03, 2014. Chibi-scheme and native client. To work with Native Client. Was easier than I expected. I used. On OS X 10.9.5. I unpacked the chibi-scheme tarball and the Native Client SDK into /Source. And ran naclsdk update. To grab the latest stable toolchain. Then,. Export NACL SDK ROOT=$HOME/Source/nacl sdk/pepper 37. Export CHIBI ROOT=$HOME/Source/chibi-scheme-0.7. Make SEXP USE DL=0. CC=$NACL SDK ROOT/toolchain/mac pnacl/bin/pnacl-clang. You don't need chibi-scheme-static.pexe.

screaming modems: change in brent crude and lahore gasoline prices in 2014
https://rotatef.blogspot.com/2015/01/change-in-brent-crude-and-lahore.html
Sunday, January 18, 2015. Change in brent crude and lahore gasoline prices in 2014. Oil prices have fallen worldwide. I wanted to see how much of that drop is reflected in the price I pay for gasoline at the pump. Is the cost of filling my tank dropping at the same rate as crude oil? Summary: calculated against January 1, 2014's prices, on January 2, 2015 the drop in crude is 49.08%. And the drop in my local prices 30.48%. I downloaded the Brent crude prices for Jan 1 2014 to Jan 2 2015. Echo done with $i.

screaming modems: trying stumpwm
https://rotatef.blogspot.com/2014/09/trying-stumpwm.html
Thursday, September 04, 2014. I've tried tiling window managers before, and I haven't been happy with them (especially with how they fail to deal with transient modal boxes), but I'm going to give them another shot. I followed the Ubuntu 12.04 Gnome instructions. And set up stumpwm. A couple of days ago. I've changed the control key from C-t. It's still a little confusing, and I keep clicking on windows to focus on them (maybe there's a switch for that? But the experience isn't terrible this time.
