I originally wrote this in 2021
Last year Youtube recommended a video by a British psych professor Tony Attwood, now living in Australia.
The title is, Could it be Asperger's?

I watched it, riveted, and then watched a load more over the next few weeks. I think I also read almost half the internet and gleaned as much information as I could about Asperger syndrome.

I asked my doctor for an...

I didn't even know this was available.

All the images from the introduction sequence of The Big Bang Theory, every single one!
No, there is no penis! Not even on Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian man, sorry ladies.

Who would have thought, the creation of the MP3 format would have such a massive influence to the entire planet. It not only brought the music industry to it's knees, it changed how music would be made in future, how much money is made and by whom.
the record industry is no longer the purveyor of all things music, no longer are they the Gate Keeper, the fact is that the music industry no longer...

It's a little unfair to the ladies and gents who spend time and money, learn skills and earn money and respect from doing cosplay.

Me, I'm not complaining.

Yeah they're AI generated. I don't care.

The world today is full of amazing AI generated art, here's some cyberpunk AI generated gorgeous pixels.

Now cyber punk is VERY forgiving, so it's perfect for AI art, these are just a few picture I found with a very very short search, I'm sure I can find a LOT more if I spent a little more time looking, but reality is eroded and...

There's a couple of ways to watch Youtube videos without watching adverts. AS we know adblockers no longer work, or rather most don't.
Even the amazing Pi-Hole can't block them.

But there are ways to still cleanly watch Youtube videos.
1. youtube-dl
I've installed youtube-dl on one of my linux boxes, I just type:
youtube-dl and the link starts to download immediately.
Then I copy it from the...

It's taken me an absolute age, but I finally have the url to display the CCTV on any security monitoring software
rtsp://192.168.0.20:554/user=username&password=password&channel=2&stream=0

So obviously the username and password is one you use to setup the YALE system, usually the username is admin... then your password.
The channel is 1 through 4 on my system. Camera 1, 2, 3 or 4
The stream is...

Where is the loneliest on Earth to you?
Give yourself a little time and think about it.

It maybe after a cataclysm and you maybe the last person on the planet.
You maybe disabled and can't leave the house.
Maybe you're a night-watchman and you work alone, in the dark, in a scary place.
What if you're an astronaut and on a planet by yourself, everyone else died.

Yes these are...

House music is a genre of electronic dance music that originated in Chicago, Illinois, in the early 1980s. It is characterized by its four-on-the-floor rhythm, which features a steady beat of kick drum on each beat of the measure, and its use of electronic synthesizers and other production techniques to create a sound that is both repetitive and hypnotic. Over the years, house music has evolved...

The last of Us Episode 1 TV show (1).png
I have seen no trailers, read no interviews or posts on blogs, forums, Reddit or newspapers. Hell, I didn't even know the show had started until it showed up in my news feed at the weekend.
I did know from various gaming sites that Pedro Pascal was to play Joel, and Merle Dandridge was making a return as Marlene. I also knew that it would start in January...

If you have little use for the 2GB of RAM in a Raspberry Pi, then you could always use 1GB of it for a SWAP drive, this should improve performance for anyone running their Pi on a SD card.

If you want to use a SSD or USB Drive then checkout my easy as Pi tutorials here:

As usual this is a quick and easy setup:
install ZRAM

sudo wget -O /usr/bin/zram.sh

Make it executable.

IF the resolution is too high and you can barely see the text, this is the fix.

I was able to set the resolution with a bootparameter in /etc/default/grub but when the tty loads, it gets overriden by something.
Then I found this: and I added / changed this:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= nomodeset

The job.
I have a signature generator that works and only works with Subsonic Music streamer. Sadly the project looks to have died, it's not been updated in 3-4 years and no longer works on linux. Windows yes, and just about.

I would like a similar signature for Plex Media Server. Plex presents some challenges.
1. Plex can use webhooks
2. It's incredibly secure and cannot be accessed...
