Geeking Out 0

Listening to KCEA on QMMP in a VirtualBox virtual machine of Windows 7 in seamless mode on Slackware 14.2 under the Fluxbox window manager while reading a Nero Wolfe mystery.

In the upper right corner of the screen, beneath the Windows menubar, is xclock running on the Slackware host; below it is the GKrellM system monitor with the “Invisible” theme, also running on the host. (I have used both GKrellM and Conky. Conky is a bit more versatile, but I prefer GKrellM because it’s more compact.)

Afterthought:

Fifteen years ago, I would not have understood a word of this except for the “Nero Wolfe” part.

This website does not track you.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
