Reboot to finish installing updates.

External monitors don't work. Network doesn't work.

Use phone to download linux-modules-extra deb file for my kernal version and architechture.

Copy the file from the phone to the computer, sudo dpkg -i <the file>. reboot.

#FIXED. Now I can "go" to work.

2-1/2 hours. #FML

🚂🚂 Ah, the joys of discovering a programmer's magnum opus on a #train ride—4 billion if statements to solve a #modulus problem! 😆 Only in the 21st century would we call this a "marvelous algorithm" and not a desperate cry for help from someone who missed the memo on basic math. 💾⏳

“My mother used to tell me, “Things always look worse at night.” For the most part, I believe her. But some of the troubles that keep me from sleeping look just as bad in the morning.”

@JdeBP That laptop has some problems. I was able to get FreeBSD installed after changing it from #BIOS to #UEFI (with hybrid CSM). I spent some time with it today on my lunch break and changed it to UEFI with native CSM. There was no change. But, what I did find is I am unable to update the BIOS (even after the recent recommended downgrade from HP) because....the NIC isn't recognized. That is new. So now the laptop is currently stuck on a firmware from 2018 with apparently no #Ethernet. Stupendous!

I set it aside and dug out another spare laptop. This time my mother's old #Toshiba #Satellite that was running #Windows7. It's a Core i7 with 8GB with an ancient 5,400 RPM disk. Should be fine. Well, I ran into problems after choosing the auto #ZFS option. After that, the installer could not proceed. Even after rebooting the laptop and restarting the installer I was unable to do anything to the disk, including delete slices or choose auto UFS. I have never experienced this before with FreeBSD and I am comically puzzled.

I did have a spare FreeBSD 14.1 DVD laying around and so far the installer is working just fine, even if it is moving slower than molasses down a freezer wall.

Well, my #FreeBSD 15 install is not going as planned. It sits there for eternity after finding an "unsafe hook" at cryptic location 0xf50bf.

Hmph! I had no idea such a place existed. That's a new one for me! 🤣

A quotation from Henry Commager

When a people are confronted with problems that are both incomprehensible and unbearable, they lash out not at those who contrived the problems but at those who expose them. When they are confronted by moral problems that they find insoluble, or perhaps intolerable, they blame the moralists. The anxieties, tensions, revulsions of our day create an atmosphere in which it is almost impossible to think clearly and dispassionately about just those problems which most imperatively require reason and objectivity — problems of adjustment to fundamental change.

Henry Steele Commager (1902-1998) American historian, writer, activist
Speech (1971-04-10), “The University and the Community of Learning,” Kent State University, Ohio

We spend a lot of time talking about problems, effects, and causes. Sadly, we fixate on problems' effects rather than focus on their causes.

A quotation from Euripides

NURSE: We’re ruined, then, if we must add a new
   Evil to the old one we’ve hardly saved ourselves from.
 
[ΤΡΟΦΌΣ: Ἀπωλόμεσθ᾽ ἄρ᾽, εἰ κακὸν προσοίσομεν
   νέον παλαιῷ, πρὶν τόδ᾽ ἐξηντληκέναι.]

Euripides (485?-406? BC) Greek tragic dramatist
Medea [Μήδεια], l. 78ff (431 BC) [tr. Podlecki (1989)]

It looks as if Cloudflare had problems right now. Several big sites not working for me.
I am quite sure they have built in redundancy in their hardware structure. I wonder what is going on.
