Sometimes I tell myself not to get angry at the AI chat bot because it's inanimate, but then I remember that I sometimes get angry at coat hangers, so yelling at ChatGPT is OK.

You could pay Google drive stupid amounts of money over your life to hold small capacity data, or you can buy be your own cloud server once - sixteen fucking terabytes, upgrade as needed. Use your own domain name, or have one supplied for nothing extra. parmanode.com/parmacloud

I think a lot of the world's problems would be solved if we got rid of people who weight ingredients when making a soup.

It's an excellent idea to stop using an operation system that was created by a person who visited Epstein's Island 34 times.

When you buy a ParmanodL laptop, it comes shipped as a fully synced Bitcoin Core or Knots node, and fully synced Electrum Server, with a sparrow and Electrum wallet that autoconnects to the node. Oh, and it mines. And mempool space. And others. When you buy ParmaCloud (16 TB self hosted cloud storage), it also includes ParmanodL.

Officially now a BitBox02 Reseller - CheapAF™ and FastAF™ shipping worldwide - my preferred HWW for Padawans I mentor who are not very techy. Goes nice with a ParmanodL Laptop Wallet/Node. There is a solid factory vacuum seal on these babies too.

In case you never realised, Bitcoin nodes are PEOPLE who have the ability to connect their wallets to Bitcoin software of which its algorithm they agree with, whether they built the computer that houses the software themeselves, or whether they trust another person's copy. As long as they know how to EXERCISE THIER CHOICE, they are a node. Regardless, run a node, I have plug 'n' play laptop nodes.

This little cutie is a ParmAirGap that I built. The fan, despite me cleaning it real good, makes a louder than average sound when it boots up. It's easy to tolerate but still, 15% off to anyone who wouldn't mind it, plus a comapnion Tails OS with Sparrow/Electum, free of charge. First responder gets priority. To read about ParmAirGaps and what they can do for you, see ...

There are an awful lot of people who know nothing about the tech who are in it for the tech.

We need to stop the Sun, it's just burning away, wasting energy.

Lucky we have government, otherwise a crime organisation could rise up, and collect protection money from us. Each organisation would have territory marked out, and people within would get extorted by their respective crime group. Possibly, every 4 years, they'd have an athletic competition between regions, celebrating their allegiance to their extorters, and peace between crime gangs. I suppose they'd maintain the roads too, in order to convince people the payment to the crime group is justified. Wait.

CAGR (finance) explained for musicians... Compound Annual Growth Rate is analogous to the semitone growth through an octave. How... All self-respecting musicians already know that the frequency interval of a note grows by the 12th root of 2, which is 1.059463 (ie each semitone "grows" by 5.9463% from one to the next above). The note above A440 is B flat. That is 440*1.059463=466.16 Hertz. The 12th root of 2 is a number that if you multiply itself 12 times, you get 2. The upper note in an octave is 2x the frequency of the lower note by definition, and there 12 semitone equal increments from the lower note to the upper note). Without getting into "equal" temperament vs "well" temperament (a fascinating side topic), the lower note is increased by 5.9563%, through 12 semitones to the upper note, finally resulting in 2x. The A above A440 is A880. How is this analogous to CAGR? Well, if you started with $1000, and it doubled in 12 years, the CAGR of your investment is worked out the same way, and is the same value of 5.9563%. The growth rate per interval, in this case the interval is a year. I overcomplicated it didn't I? It's OK, musicians will get it no, especially piano turners.

New! I now am building ParmanodL 16TB NAS machines with NextCloud (self-hosted cloud data). What does this mean? Besides running a Bitcoin node, with the 16TB drive, I'm configuring it so you can connect any home computer to it and it works like a drive on your other machine, even if it's Mac or Windows. And with NextCloud, you can have your own personal cloud. You'll have to buy a domain, and I'll help configure the connection. Then from anywhere, you can access your data, like people do with Google Drive - phone, PC, tablet, whatever. Below is a picture of my Mac Desktop with the drive icon to my NAS, and a window open showing how I can explore/copy/paste files. Note that RAID is optional.

Did you know you can make a QR code on your computer from the command line fairly easily? Parman's #NerdTips ... Step 1 - Install Parmanode on Mac or Linux (or update to 3.52.1) Step 2 - From the main menu, select "t" for tools, "n" for the next page, then "qr" for the menu (if QRencode isn't installed, Parmanode will do that). Step 3 - Then you'll have a menu. Choose info to see the commands to DIY QR code any text or file, or choose "pub" to get a QR of your computer's SSH public. It's a handy way to extract text from your computer. If you have a ParmAirGap, it will be installed on that to help you get data out; helps minimise connecting USB drives. Later, If I think of useful options for QRs I'll add it, or on request.

Imagine how much more productive Einstein, Tesla, DaVinci, and Beethoven would have been if they had AI. Baffling to me that some people don't even use it several times a day.
