RPi SSH Login Problem - Solution

2018-04-29T14:47:00.001-07:00

         NOTE: As mentioned above, I saw an issue here where I couldn't SSH in with the                   password that was set for the newly created user when it was done on the                  Rpi console.  This issue turned out to be an issue with the wrong keyboard                  layout (default is UK and not US) set in the OS.  Once I changed the mapping                  to US, I had to change the password again).

Merry Fooquin Christmas

2017-12-21T10:47:00.001-08:00

Sitting in the waiting room for a post op appointment. Old couple leaving is told "Merry Christmas" from staff, the happily reply "Happy Holidays". Old man sitting near me next to his wife mutters "No. Merry Christmas!"

All I can think is what the fuck!?

So it's not that they can't say Merry Christmas, it's that they want to hear only Merry Christmas. What a bunch of fucking hypocrites!

"Loullie": a definition

2015-02-17T13:28:00.001-08:00

A 'Loullie' is someone who, through opprobrium, causes an otherwise unlikely scenario to be brought to the height of attention changing the probability from unlikely to likely.

It is a combination of the names Louise and Millie and gets it's definition from the episode of Bob's Burgers titled "The Millie-churian Candidate" (season 5, episode 12) where Louise's intense negative reaction (attention) makes Millie's unwanted ideas and advances more probable.

Political Purity

2014-04-02T05:08:00.004-07:00

"The different ways of conceptualizing the debate over government spills over into every other way in which the parties operate. Democrats are more favorable toward moderation and political compromise; Republicans toward ideological purity and principle. It’s not coincidental that Republicans have instigated more high-stakes partisan escalation in Congress."
