July 13 I'm like militantly against Generative AI; I mean it's like an article of faith. But I had to get this in HD, it's funny: LittleMarco.mp4
July 10 https://www.rfc.org The Rosenberg Fund for Children was established in 1990 to support the children of people in trouble for their activism. I found out about it in an article in the Atlantic by someone who interviewed their (Julius and Ethel Rosenberg's) children (who are now grandparents). I also found out, which I hadn't known, that Abel and Anne Meeropol took them in when that became possible, allowing them to have as normal of childhoods as was possible. Abel Meeropol wrote "Strange Fruit", which Billy Holiday made famous, and which earned him some money that helped this family (Abel and Anne had had two children stillborn prior to adopting Michael and Robby) have a nice life. When Michael and Robby were older, they took up for their birth parents. The Atlantic article is very interesting and moving. #AbolishTheDeathPenalty.

July 02 https://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/ I improved my xscreensaver situation today. Got the Linux desktop to keep it on, rather than blanking the screen, then on the MacBook and Mac Mini, the Random Screensaver was not working, it's somewhat better. I downloaded the source, and trying to build the whole project with Xcode was failing, but I was able to build the Random one and after installing it, that's working much better. XScreensaver is the bomb! Not powering down displays on plugged in computers to enjoy the show but hey, we're on solar (or at least we are according to the electric company.)
