9/20/2023 0 Comments Jam session jammer![]() But now that I think of it, almost a year on, I am just thinking that the limitation of the lockdown created situations that we are able to grow from. And then you were like so believing in this thing and I was like ‘we cannot glamourize struggle as a departure point for art’. Like when shit hits the fan, when things are bad, that is when artists go to work. Togar, do you remember, there was a quote by Toni Morrison that you had printed out and you had in your studio? It was at the beginning of the lockdown, fucking everyone is confused and you read this Toni Morrison quote and it kind of goes along the lines of like ‘now is the time for artists to get to work’. Because it is not only hearing the other, but it is allowing the other to influence your own actions and then bring it somehow in some result together. That is like the concept of deep listening. So it is listening, but also this listening is allowing the other to transform yourself. I just really like this way of connecting. Yesterday, for instance, Mette, Pennie and I were dancing, and I was wondering if we influence the people who are playing? And then I wonder we listen to the people who are playing, but we can also listen to the people who are being silent, no? And I wonder about the other people in the room. It is a very powerful act when everybody just comes to the same feeling and the same situation, when it is coming to the climax of the song. And that I think it is a very, very powerful moment. It does not matter exactly for what or the purpose of it, but it is just a fact of connecting into the same syntony in the same space, in the same context. So there is this sense of proximity when we are all together in this space and listening to each other. We are in the same situation and many times we are sharing the same space, but we are in completely different syntony. Something I really enjoy about the jam sessions is the encounter. That it is not just about playing whatever, but it is also trying to listen what the other people are doing, and trying to do something together in the moment. And something that I learned from you is the importance of listening. And it has been almost a year that this jamming has been happening constantly. I think it is a really simple way of coming together. You are not playing good, this is not your song, it is our song, it does not sound good.” But then, I have a different approach here, because I can do whatever. ![]() And I am always pretty scared because my dad was saying, ‘no, no chaparro, no. For example, for me my approach to music is more as a listener, but never as an interpreter, or touching the instruments. And then not all of the time you open yourself to do things that you do not know. ![]() I see it as a way of releasing energy, you know? I guess when you already have a practice, you are already somehow contained by some structures. ![]() Because it was not palomazo, or a poetry-jam, but it was more about like an act of joy. And then, when you first explain the concept of jamming, then I understood it differently. Well, the first time I heard the concept of jamming or jam, it was from poetry, because in Mexico City they do jam or poetry or poetry-jam. And it has this sense of improvisation, but it is quite different, because they are musicians and they respect more or less the structure. In my experience-because my dad is a musician and I used to help him to connect the equipment and this kind of stuff-they do not call it jam, they call it palomazo, and it takes place at the end or at the beginning of playing whole songs. The theme of this conversation was about/around “jamming” and what it does to us as jammers and as listeners. Driven by the need to update each other’s states of mind, it looks into our lives as practitioners through a re-imagining of these habitual spaces as “moderated hangouts.” Germination state is an ongoing sequence of discussions / jam sessions derived from everyday life. It aims to promote a knowing and respectful awareness of the infinite languages spoken in the world. This particular date and time was chosen to correspond to the curfew in Amsterdam and to correspond to International Mother Language Day, a Bangladeshi national holiday that was formed in 2000 and which has since expanded to a global level. To be any number of sensations are better put in sounds instead of words. On Sunday, February 21st, 2021 at 21:00, Tropical Tap Water recorded its fourth iteration of Germination state, a jam session of ten musicians who during the pandemic regularly got together to (safely) release tension, strengthen bonds, meditate, get and be lost or found, to get warm or cool off, to be south, north, east and west.

9/20/2023 0 Comments Dude youre getting a dell![]() In January of 1984, he moved the operation to a condo off campus. ![]() I mean, the PCs don't own the Limited, right? Ugh. The company's name was officially "PC's Limited" but that apostrophe drives me nuts, so I will be referring to it as PCs Limited. Instead, the business was officially legally founded… and Michael Dell simply neglected to inform his parents. That didn’t work out quite the way they hoped. Around Thanksgiving of 1983, they pressured him to commit to quitting the business and focus on his studies. In his college dorm room 2713 in the Dobie Center residential building, he launched a small computer business, PCs Limited, with nothing but $1000 and a rather simple product idea. As we saw when he was young, he was simply drawn to business. Unfortunately while he had every intention of going to school, he wasn’t really the school type of guy. As a good son, Dell endeavored to oblige his parents and enrolled at the University of Texas in 1983. They wanted their son to be a successful medical doctor and they exerted pressure upon him to become so. Michael Dell’s parents were successful professionals, one in orthodontia and the other in finance. With these funds, he did what I believe every young man (and perhaps more than a few grown men) in America would do, he bought himself a new computer and a new car. As a result of his efforts, Dell earned himself $18,000 dollars (roughly $66000 in 2023). Armed with the newly weds’ addresses, he then sent them a direct mail offer for a free trial subscription to the paper. They captured the addresses of all of the people who applied for marriage licenses from the courts. Dell hired all of his friends and they went to 16 counties in the Houston area. Of particular interest to a person selling newspaper subscriptions is the address to which the couple wants the license sent once it’s issued. In the USA, to be wed requires that the couple obtain and file a marriage license, and this is public information. He realized that the people who were buying the newspaper generally had one of two things in common, they were either moving to a new home or getting married. There’s obvious sales experience involved there, but the young Michael Dell wasn’t content to be just another seller of newspapers. Other critical skills for his future were gained through selling newspaper subscriptions. You could design your own circuits and you could modify them, and you could literally see exactly how the thing was working. In his own words:Ī good thing about the early personal computers is that they had completely kind of standardized chips, and so you could literally get a book about each chip and read what each pin did, and how signals were processed through the chip. Getting the machine home, he promptly chose to take it apart and see what made it work. The trajectory of Dell’s life began to take shape at the age of 15 when he bought himself an Apple ][. While he didn’t succeed, he did get part time jobs in his early teens, and he began stock and precious metal investing. At the age of 8, he tried to get out of school by taking the Highschool equivalency exam. Although he's down to slinging drinks, Ben's taking it in stride, saying "There were times when I made boatloads of money as an actor, but here I can be myself." That doesn't mean he's given up the dream just yet: he's hoping to score big with his band, Whale, which he says has "the green light," but has "decided to take a little time off to record our EP and package ourselves properly." Hm, seems like a perfect opportunity to get back together with Dell, actually - it could use some new music after getting caught using GarageBand's built-in loops in that XPS One teaser.Michael Saul Dell was born on the 23rd of February in 1965 in Houston, Texas. Although the Steven ads were hugely popular and generated tons of buzz (and revenue) for Dell, the company eventually dropped the campaign after Ben got arrested for buying pot in 2003 - shocking no one who actually watched the commercials, but apparently not the message Dell wanted to send the parents fronting the cash for all those machines. Oh, how the mighty have fallen: Ben Curtis, famous just a few years ago as "Steven the Dell Dude," is now a waiter / bartender at Tortilla Flats in New York. 9/20/2023 0 Comments Mont blanc explorer![]() Yet it does try to create his own unique identity as well.

But I always liked his work in “Finding Neverland.” Hey may yet surprise us. He has a few in the can including “London Fields” and “Murder on the Orient Express.” Will he be able to act without the gimmickry of Jack Sparrow? So far, he hasn’t had an easy time of it. If the franchise is over for Depp, he’ll be forced back into regular movies. Disney is hoping people will flock to the movie the way they buy Oreos or Diet Coke in the supermarket only to realize when they get home they didn’t need them. Still, brand recognition should help “Pirates” have a decent first weekend before the bottom drops out. Typical is the Hollywood Reporter take: “Depp remains wholeheartedly the focus of this fifth Pirates film, and saying the character’s loopy novelty has faded is like complaining that there are maggots in the below-decks gruel: You knew what you were getting when you came aboard.” Depp’s Jack Sparrow may finally have worn out his welcome as early reviews are quite bad. So what’s left? Seems that the 5th “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie - called “Dead Men Tell No Tales” - could be his last. Already, Johnny Depp’s portrayal of the Lone Ranger’s Native sidekick, Tonto, has created a storm of controversy, with many saying that the character is racist. ![]() His crazy finances have been splashed all over the tabloids. His divorce from Amber Heard was heard, literally around the world. Little movies like “Mortdecai” have bombed as well. “Alice Through the Looking Glass” was a worldwide hit, but a dud in the US. How much more damage can Johnny Depp’s career take? “The Lone Ranger” was a gigantic disaster. 9/20/2023 0 Comments Dungeon hunter 2 spk![]() Along these lines, rather than pausing, partake in the charming movements for your legends, attacks, and lethal foes.

Today, to overcome form this complexity, there are several frameworks have introduced that support both OS along with desktop apps. ![]() Thus, we need two different languages and frameworks to develop applications for both OS. For developing mobile apps, Android provides a native framework based on Java and Kotlin language, while iOS provides a framework based on Objective-C/Swift language. There are many frameworks available, which provide excellent features to develop mobile applications. In general, creating a mobile application is a very complex and challenging task. The current stable release of the framework is Flutter v1.9.1+hotfix.6 on October 24, 2019. On December 4, 2018, the first stable version of the Flutter framework was released, denoting Flutter 1.0. It was initially known as codename Sky and can run on the Android OS. The first version of Flutter was announced in the year 2015 at the Dart Developer Summit. Flutter apps use Dart programming language for creating an app. Initially, it was developed from Google and now manages by an ECMA standard. Flutter is a UI toolkit for building fast, beautiful, natively compiled applications for mobile, web, and desktop with one programing language and single codebase. Our Flutter Tutorial provides basic and advanced concepts of the Flutter framework. I’m also not making it an open source only list as some may be reasonably priced commercial services ie. through one-click installation scripts with Softaculous (often included with cPanel hosting) on cheap cPanel hosting which could cost around $10 pm for a family, organisation, or medium size groups to share and use. I am in favour of very easy to set-up alternatives eg. It will be what is working for me and I’ll add a comment by each trying to highlight why. So I’m starting the list below which will not be some final exhaustive list of alternatives. Someone still has to pay to run them, but that is often done through donations or in many cases just a personal sponsorship by the admin. Because they are far smaller, their costs are a lot lower to maintain. These options already exist but most people are just not aware of them. For example if Hubzilla has hubs in China, USA, Germany and Switzerland, you could choose which one you want to join the network from, and that hub could allow/disallow certain rules and even connections to other Hubzilla hubs. ![]() A decentralised and peer-to-peer type network, or one with proper end-to-end encryption, is going to be a lot more difficult as there are multiple points of entry, often scattered throughout the world. So with this in mind my thoughts go along the lines that a centrally managed service is a lot easier to manipulate or monitor or influence as it has a central point of entry to the whole network. Not all advertisers are selling toilet paper as we are hearing more and more that many have political or even macroeconomic interests, and these ‘messages’ can potential sway elections and destabilise countries from within. The above on its own is not yet fully crossing the line but where it has started to go even further is the realisation from advertisers that they can target specific messages to identified categories of users by needs, fears, geographic location, political persuasion, etc and actually influence behaviour and discussions. This in turn leads to the need to report back the success rates to advertisers (proving how many people are looking at the adverts). So this results in service providers (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Twitter, etc) needing to analyse your content and behaviour (what do you stop to read or look at) to target the right people. This in turn gets them higher revenue from advertisers as this type of advertising is more valuable. Service providers also realised the power of being able to target adverts to specific niches of users based on their interests. If plain advertising was sufficient then yes it could fund services online but as we the users got better and better at blocking adverts, the game started to change. We already see this with many decentralised social networks and even cloud hosting services, and many have even moved to proper peer-to-peer services where the data moves between the computers themselves. So yes one alternative is that services get decentralised and operate on smaller nodes/hubs where they can take on and reflect local cultures or interests and be cheaper to maintain. So we are often free to download open source software but to have it work for cloud sync or be available to the public does cost money to host and have network access. There are open source products, but the cost is often the hosting required for it to be shared and used by many people. The problem is that very large centralised services cost a lot of money to operate. I fully realise that a service is never fully free as someone has to pay for the hosting, administration and moderation, and that is either funded by a sponsor, advertisements, or us paying to subscribe. I’m noticing more and more from hearings and also documentaries such as The Social Dilemma that we are not the customers of these free services, but the advertisers are the customers, and we are the product. The purpose of this page is to offer some alternatives to the traditional centralised Big Tech services such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.
