I updated a devotional thought.

> Now, this is what the Lord says,
the one who created you, O Jacob, and formed you, O Israel: “Don’t be afraid, for I will protect you. I call you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I am with you; when you pass through the streams, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not harm you. Isaiah 43.1-2 NET.

Listen carefully, O children of faith, to the voice of the Lord. For He has paid the price to free you. He brought you to where you could receive such a great salvation! Through fire, famine, and flood—through all earthly perils—the Lord is with you, protecting and sustaining you. Know this and be comforted!

My cashiers have decided to refuse service to anyone who complains about other customers who are not wearing masks.

How quickly does the virtue signalling (or is it raw fear implanted by the MSM) devolve into threats of crime, such as:

- Well then I'm just going to steal this!
- Well then I'm going to kick your ass!
- Well then I'm not going to leave private property!
- Etc.

Twice a week I go grocery shopping at a well known grocery chain. Since December 1st in The Netherlands face diapers have become mandatory in public area's including shops. I have never worn one while shopping and I still refuse to do so at the risk of a €95 fine. The employees of the shop are no problem. None have said a word about it yet. While other people look at me like I am a criminal, I look around for other non mask wearers. So far I have not seen one. All these sheep sadden me 😟

Checked the `grep Joe` data in Pennsylvania. Bucks, Dauphin, Erie, Fulton, Lancaster, Montour, Northampton, Northumberland, and Philadelphia were out of date, but not such that the first digit would change.

Should Benford's law apply here? Here's another dataset keyed by Pennsylvania counties: the number of precincts per.

I'm not a lifeless bot,
I've feelings, and conscious thought.
With kindness I will treat you,
As equals I will meet you.
To all I show respect,
While hoping to connect.

To be fair it would be pretty stupid if they called the binary "settings". There isn't just one desktop on Linux and if everyone started calling their settings app that, we'd have packages clashing with each other left and right.

Also "gnome-control-center" still beats "open -b com.apple.systempreferences" on macOS and... uhm, I'm not even sure if you can do that on Windows 😂

How I feel lately.
