: I'm writing this on my temporary journal at FrayedGenes,com because I'm in the middle of upgrading the wiki installation on my regular journaling site. It's taking a ''long'' time to finish, which makes me worried that there's something wrong, but so far at least it isn't throwing any more errors, now that I have the upgraded EmbedVideo extension files loaded. It took some time to get that figured out, since I didn't realize the current lealease directory had the files in a normal compressed .gz package instead of a .git repo. However, because I thought it was a .git thing, now I know how to download one of those using the CLI, and a whole lot more about Git and GitHub than I ever thought I needed to know. I still need to finish the course, but I'm pretty sure I know most of what I need now, since I'm not really using it for version control. I will complete it, though, since it's good information and a useful skill.

: Another thing I accomplished today that ''did'' employ the knowledge of how to download a .git repo, was updating the driver for the [https://www.sparkfun.com/products/15096 CH340 board] I bought to use with [https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sparkfun-edge-hookup-guide the Sparkfun Edge board] for doing the exercises in [https://read.amazon.com/?asin=B082TY3SX7 the TinyML book]. In the process I also used makefile for the first time. The step-by-step instructions for updating the drivers were on the Sparkfun website so I didn't really need to understand what I was doing, but I intend to do another Linux basics course to learn more about that utility, since it's an important one. I've been limited in what I can do without knowing how to use it. I found [https://www.coursera.org/learn/linux-basics-the-command-line-interface/ a class on Coursera] that might cover that, but I'll keep looking to see if I can find something more specific.

: I got a reply from Dr. Loya-Valencia's office that they have faxed the order for my KUB to Baptist Imaging, so I'll head down there as soon as I get dressed. I'm nearly out of cat treats, and completely out of bread, so I'll stop at the store on the way home and pick some up, but I don't need a whole regular grocery run, so will probably just go to Dollar General instead of H.E.B.

: In other news, last night I did finally get MediaWiki upgraded, but still having problems logging in, so I'm going to move on to the next release (1.35) and then on to the latest (1.39). Unfortunately, I have to do that in stages since it's necessary to only advance two releases at a time now. Luckily, once I figured out I needed to revert to an earlier version of EmbedVideo extension, it only took a moment to run the script, and now I have all the necessary code downloaded so it's just a matter of copying it over. Here's hoping this fixes the problem so I can get back to my normal use.

: I changed my mind about shopping, and went to WalMart after all, but still only picked up a few odds and ends rather than a full grocery shopping trip. I thought about simply baking some bread, but decided against that and picked up a loaf as well as a couple of bowls of Panera Chedar Broccoli soup. Love that stuff! They had the trout flavored cat treats, although only in the smaller container, but I got that as well as a large container of salmon flavor, which the kitties seem to prefer over chicken. Spoiled things. Anyway, I did get my x-rays, and also filled up the gas tank. I'll need more groceries soon, but not till the end of the week. The longer I can postpone it, the better from a financial POV, since I seem to spend the same amount whether I go once a week or every other week. But now it's time for the ISM meeting.

===Shopping===

−
: In spite of my best intentions to use up at least ''some'' of my yarn stash before buying any more, I just ordered three skeins of [https://lovecrafts.com Cascade Sarasota] cotton & acrylic DK yarn to make [https://www.ilikeknitting.com/collections/knitting-baby-patterns/aloha-stripes-beach-dress/?t=14997 a little dress for Alessia]. It ought to work up quickly, but I'm just guessing at her size. I'll text Angela to ask before I start working on it. The yarn requirements are the same for both sizes 3 and 4, so it ought to be fine. Oh, and the yarn was on sale, too!

: Now I need to run to the grocery store and get some cat treats, since there's only one serving left. If I run out the cats will drive me crazy. Oh, and since I'm nearly out of bread and am completely out of crackers, I'll get some food for myself, too. I might as well pick up the mail while I'm at it.

===Hearing===

−
: I've been wearing my new hearing aids for almost a week now. Yesterday I was a bit panicked because the left one didn't seem to be working, even after I unpaired and re-paired them to my phone. However, today I changed out the little white ring under the grey sleeve, and now it's working. Whew! I dropped the original grey sleeve and can't find it, but there's replacements so I just used one of them. The original white ring had some kind of discoloration on its base -- the part that's on the inside of the device -- so that's probably why it wasn't working.

Discord Tips

  • To include some code in your post, surround the code in single backticks (`) for inline code, or triple backticks for a block of code.
  • You can add an optional language marker to get syntax highlighting for that language. Common markers are py, c, and sh.
`​`​`py
# Check for equals.
if a == b:
    print("Match")
`​`​`
becomes:
# Check for equals.
if a == b:
    print("Match")
