This is how I feel after fixing the blog and reinstalling OS at my PC

Some may say I can’t use such image of tired and exhausted worker, wiping his sweat to describe myself ever, because I am not involved in physical work.

But in my defense I can say that I used this image as metaphor. And I had to reinstall OS at my desktop PC from scratch, tried to install Debian but it seems PCs with Nvidia does not love Debian 13 with 6.12.74 kernel.

Switched to Mint 22, now it works.

Now I feel myself like an oligarch and billionaire, because of single way to fix my blog that was working – pour money into VPS.

Fixed finally this blog. Sadly, the single way to fix it was to enlarge the VPS resources, and also added some special voodoo with wordpress container env variables.

I hope it will allow to work my server for longer.

But eventually I may need to rewrite that into something like nodejs or something other tiny tech, some single-person internet pod in spirit of Small Web and Kitten.

Also, I lost keys for my deltachat account in the process, so I don’t have other ways for direct message except email for now.

How I become Spock

How I become Spock one day.

Fasten your seat belts and get ready for a smelly and bumpy ride.

Once upon a time it has been known how putin pooped himself when slipped on the stairs and felt on the floor.

But before that has been known how during meeting in the Normandy format 6 body guards accompanied putin to the restroom.

And after that it has become known that a special bodyguard collects putin’s poop into a dedicated suitcase as Insider reports referencing Paris Match investigation.

Of course me and my beloved wife laughed for days if not weeks about that, so crazy it is. Overall, the Internet laughed for few months about that, what is quite long attention time span for any news today.

My wife said when all this have been known that She has been wondering how russian “tzar” makes his big business in toilet/restroom, and many people were around her for decades has been interested in this question. Even when tzar title there was “Secretary General” of CPSU, secrecy level about all that aspect of russian tzar daily life was the same as today about putin’s.

And when I said that I never thought about that, and never found that interesting, She was so surprised, like “Why?! This is not possible!” And then She said something like “You have to be an alien from another planet!”. I got surprised by all this twist, and asked, puzzled, “from what planet I am then?”, and She answered – “I don’t know much about any other aliens except Spock. You told me a lot about him. And yes, you are like him. So I think you are Spock.” Then my wife said very interesting thing – “You are very lucky, my dear Spock! You landed here on Earth exactly when it has been known some thing, how russian tzar poops, which has been kept in deep secrecy for centuries!”.

And well…. Yes, from scientific perspective, like anthropology, or how would be called that from Vulcan scientists perspective, this is a really fascinating and rare discovery!
