I spent much of the last two days figuring out what could work on an old Pentium III 1U I have. I got a "386" build of antiX to run on it, and extracted the Floppy PNG w/ a compile of QuickJS, but the only browser I could find that would work was seamonkey-2.46, because no SSE2/3.

This is the most elegant set of GNU/Linux install instructions I've seen since I started using Linux in 1995. I love the fact that they have a root FS option. #GNULinux #linux #VoidLinux

AntiX 64 bit works fine on my old 2011 laptop. I'll have to hunt to find some old 32 bit hardware to test the 32 bit version of AntiX; however, the performance is noticeably slower for Logical Map. It still works, though, just some lag. #lmtr
If I was an academic with more luxury and cush, vs. a nerd fixated on a particular form of cognitive tool for system visualization, I would investigate the ever-changing evil we shift the blame to. When did we stop being responsible for what dominant paradigms are doing to shared planetary life?
The conviction that somebody else's ideology and paradigms are wrong is easy. It is much more difficult to realize there are 10,000 years of embedded myth, ideology, and paradigms in all dominant cultures, including your own. Understand the concept of modernity. The enemy is us. #DanielQuinn
My first #lmtr journey was an old Acer Aspire with an AMD E-305 processor. While it is 64 bits, I've had trouble with some 64 bit distros on it (CPU features?), so installed 32 bit Puppy Trixie on it and 32 bit Firefox 144. It works with all sites, and generates Logical Maps with some lag.
I'm on a pretty typical mainstream GNU/Linux distro. It blows my mind that to burn a DVD with an ISO image that I just need to:
```
growisofs -Z /dev/sr0=img.iso
```
It seemed to work just fine for my Puppy Linux burn I'm using for my 32 bit Floppy PNG tests.

Looking over my privacy policy for my websites and drinking coffee. The word cookies is mentioned a couple of times, and it stuck out. #JohnLennon and cookie monster come to mind. He loved cookie monster. I watched the very first Sesame Street as a kid. I was a TV kid. My first word was Batman.
That time in 2006 I compiled a 2.4 kernel to work with an old Iomega Zip drive and discovered that four years earlier I'd put a copy of ZipSlack on it ( #Slackware that fit on a Zip disk ).

Most #collapse thought leaders manage to get a #DonellaMeadows level of clarity on paradigms/culture/ideology with a firm understanding of physics constraints, but where they go from there takes two paths: they continue to cycle for relevance, or they proceed further and alienate most followers.
Tom Murphy is a curse, as I respect his work so much he takes my time. He has stayed true, has good credentials, and is honest with himself and open to new ways of seeing. I followed his #ishmael series, and read the book for the first time... and again. Now, I need to do a deep dive on his #dualism series.

We pushed artisans out as primary contributors to the global supply chain in order to scale it, and allow those without craft skills to thrive. Those that thrive in the current global supply chain seek out authentic artisan production, leaving the masses with slop, convincing them they need it.
An important part of the Logical Map Technical Reference ( #lmtr ), is being able to verify Floppy PNGs and build/render maps on old systems. 32 bits is going to be tough, but I figure those systems are considered garbage, now, so if I can base #lmtr at that and go up to 64, that it will be useful.
Who remembers where they were when they accidentally played this hidden #tool song off of Undertow? I was in a shared computer/study room in an over/under duplex in the Central District in Seattle. Same room I was in when I first heard this #korn hidden track:
@3:15 "I'm going to look at the clock. The clock says 7:34."
#DavidLynch #Quinoa
@ 6:07 "It's not quite as good as pure consciousness, but it's really good." ~#DavidLynch #TranscendentalMeditation #agua #water
Decades ago, I would keep my journal and go through long periods of silence... years. I would enter something like "back again after three years, merry climber", and come back again in two. I also felt the idea of "losing my words". I could feel how my conscious life derailed my inner.
I forget where I saw this, I suspect it was on a talk with #ZakStein: wisdom teachings share the concept of restraint. Restraint is needed to guide towards sustainable consumption of the biosphere vs. self-termination. Don't let horses run back to the barn. Let's do better if we get another chance.
Humans act like cellular automata. A culture based in an extractive relationship with nature devours the biosphere. We continued our simulation in comfort. It suited us. We voiced our outrage, as a minority monetized and accelerated under these cultural norms, but we all contributed. #GameOfLife
