October 27, 2023 HPR3975: Mesa Verde 20230618
We had occasion to travel to Colorado for a wedding, and took a
little extra time to visit Mesa Verde. This is a site originally
inhabited by the Puebloan people (as the Spanish called them) that was
located on a Mesa in the vicinity of the Rocky Mountains. The site is
not far from New Mexico, and our tour was fascinating, so I am sharing
it with you.

October 26, 2023 HPR3974: About USBimager - part 2/2
Because you want to make changes on a storage device, you are asked
to enter your password. You can add your user to the group: disk to
avoid this.
who or whoami - my login-name
id - more details
groups - all your groups
less /etc/group | grep disk - focus on disk
Add an existing user to another group, like this:
sudo usermod -aG disk LOGIN-NAME
I saw my entry not immediately check it with:
cat /etc/group

October 25, 2023 HPR3973: Creating an equalizer preset for your episodes of HPR
Here I describe my method for creating a macro using equalizer,
compressor and normalize presets in Audacity, which can be used
repeatedly to get consistent results, as long as you use the same voice,
microphone and recording location.
This is the sample of the equalizer setting I use with a Sennheiser
MB2 Pro headset:
This is the waveform for this episode before applying the
Compressor.
This is the waveform for this episode after applying the
equalizer discussed earlier, the Compressor at threshold -31dB, noise
floor -40dB and ratio 2:1. No make-up gain at the Compressor. Finally,
Normalize to peak amplitude of -12dB. I was wrong in the show to say
that I had been using "Amplify," in fact I have been using
"Normalize."

October 24, 2023 HPR3972: Thunderbird inbox filtering: keeping a clean/orderly inbox.
Thunderbird
inbox filtering: keeping a clean/orderly inbox.
Source: Thunderbird: Free Your
Inbox.
Supporting Source: Organize
Your Messages by Using Filters.
Message filters allow you to set up Thunderbird to organize your
messages automatically. Each account has its own set of filters. Filters
can move messages to folders, delete them, forward them to other email
addresses, and more.
When you receive new mail - This is when Getting New Mail is
selected (the default). Filters are applied to new mail in the inbox.
This can occur either before Thunderbird does its assessment of the mail
as junk, or after. If you have difficulty with filtering the message
body, select after classification.
Automatically applied filters are applied only to the inbox, with
the exception of Archive and after send filters, which apply only to the
mails involved in the action to send or archive. Other folder types are
not affected.
Supporting Source: Protect
your Thunderbird passwords with a Primary Password.
Thunderbird can save passwords for each account, so you don't have
to re-enter them when you check for new messages. You can view them and
remove the ones you don't use anymore.
Do you want to prevent others from seeing your
messages? If you are sharing a computer, the most secure way is
to create a separate OS user account on the operating system for each
person, and make sure your OS account requires a password. Thunderbird
stores accounts, messages and password information separately for each
operating system account.

If one's honour is questioned, it can thus be important to disprove
any false accusations or slander. In some cultures, the practice of
dueling arose as a means to settle such disputes firmly, though by
physical dominance in force or skill rather than by objective
consideration of evidence and facts.

October 19, 2023 HPR3969: Game Sales
There are some games I will buy for the full prices as soon as they
are released, such as any of the Civilization games. But I also like to
find bargains, and I recently scored a fantastic deal on Steam that
motivated me to share this information with the community since I know
there are other people out there who enjoy computer games.

October 17, 2023 HPR3967: Unsolicited thoughts on running open source software projects
Some thoughts on the different ways you can run an open source
software project, comparing projects like password-store, which are
based on a mailing list and use a minimal forge platform, and others
that are based on a fancy forge like Github.
I think the fancy forge gives the open source software project a vibe
that we're more used to, in our capitalist society. It's a more
centralized structure that feels more like a service that's being
offered to the public, mostly in one direction. Meanwhile software
projects that don't have a platform for creating road maps, issues, pull
requests etc actually foster a stronger and more open community
structure, rather counter-intuitively, because the software is free and
everyone is able to contribute and modify the software for their own
use, and they in fact do. The idea of a canonical version of the
software is only a convenience, not a defining feature of it.
Let me know your thoughts on this.
