I loved the sunglasses from The Arrival - (1996 movie), and thanks to Product Placement Takes Off, these may be from Luxottica. The Ray-Ban Chaos RB3140 are likely a direct descendent.
I haven't come anywhere near close to confirming the actual make and model.

Problem: Given an item in the Internet Archive, e.g. The works of Ralph Waldo Emerson, you may be tempted to download the PDF for its exactness. Admirable! However, my e-reader is horribly slow for opening it and turning pages. I find slow page turning aggravating; it makes me lose my train of thought and strains my reading comprehension.
This extra work is well worth it for me.
See also PDF? I haven't tested it, but I wonder if "repairing" a PDF would also help with e-reader speed.
Problem: Keep an air gapped (airwalled) computer updated via a sneakernet.

"A Meditation" is a discourse intended to express its author's reflections or to guide others in contemplation.
The first two are components of Enlightenment and often lead to the experience of an Epiphany. Some version is an instinctive aspect of genius, often seen in sharpening the saw.

TODO - tested and working, though my most recent Lubuntu experimentation has problems I'm still troubleshooting.

These instructions are a lot easier than they seem, and a smart and patient beginner will be able to follow them!
These notes were made on an everyday system with one hard drive which I completely formatted for this purpose.
This concept and these notes build a full-disk Slackware installation which also uses LVM. You can safely ignore the entire LVM post and just follow this one.
Problem: I have a messy old Windows installation, and I want to reinstall it from scratch. However, I own Windows 8, applied the Windows 8.1 upgrade, and then got the free upgrade to Windows 10. I don't have a Windows 10 installation disk.
I don't want a new disk, I want a USB stick.
I don't want Windows itself booting from a USB stick, just the installer on it.
