  1. Copying the wild, dynamic strokes were a lot of fun and almost came by themselves.
    Sometimes they were contemplative, liberating, or even vigorously.
    I can only imagine the energy van Gogh put into painting his masterpiece, which was three times that size. Wow!
    I hope that doesn't sound too silly.

  3. I admire van Gogh's works and read a biography of him many years ago. To learn his craft, he studied and copied Japanese woodblock prints and drew inspiration from them.
    Now I’ve copied “The Starry Night” based on a photo from Wikipedia using Caran D’Ache Neocolor II on a wash of watercolor with French ultramarine. My version measures 23 x 31 cm.
    I didn't sign it because it isn't “my” work, after all.

    the never ending story

    I wanted to play a dvd I hadn't touched for a while. I had the option of

    • nice -1 vlc and
    • nice -1 mplayer

    to execute playback I opted for vlc gui version, even though I normally use vlc -I cli because of the great logs produced there. While using the gui version of VLC I missed the log output and jumped to mplayer to see the stats. A nice set of parameters were echoed to the CON, but in the output a entry jumped up

    • MPlayer 1.5+svn38674-2 (Debian)do_connect: could not connect to socket
      connect: No such file or directory

    I had used rpm based distributions which added libdvdread by default, so I had forgotten about it through the years, when I migrated to debian based distro's

    Content Scramble System (CSS)

    Many DVDs use CSS[0] as a form of a Digital Rights Management (DRM) to encrypt
    the content of Video DVDs. To play such discs a special library is needed to
    decode them, libdvdcss.

    Due to the legal limbo of libdvdcss in some particular juristictions, some
    distributions including Debian do not distribute libdvdcss.

    If it is legal for you to use CSS in your juristiction, you can:

    It was puzzling that debian decided to permanently leave this lib out while this was a thing from 26-9=17 years ago!

    The installation process was smoothed out however, I did not need to do

    configure; make; make install

    instead I only needed to execute

    • apt install libdvd-pkg && dpkg-reconfigure libdvd-pkg
    • watch the output
    Installing:
    libdvd-pkg

    Installing dependencies:
    autoconf dh-strip-nondeterminism libfile-stripnondeterminism-perl
    automake dwz libtool
    autopoint gettext m4
    autotools-dev intltool-debian po-debconf
    debhelper libarchive-zip-perl
    dh-autoreconf libdebhelper-perl

    When the dependencies are installed (I don't compile sources on this machine other than the distro induced compilations) the lib is downloaded

  7. TIL: why it’s ctrl+V

    Larry Tesler, the creator of copy/paste, explains:

    The Lisa was the first system to assign XCVZ to cut, copy, paste and undo (shifted with the “apple” key). I chose them myself. X was a standard symbol of deletion. C was the first letter of Copy. V was an upside down caret and apparently meant Insert in at least one earlier editor.
