If you use:

https://tools.anemo.se/c64/kernal-mod/

to customize your kernals, you can actually use any hex editor and modify locations $0460 through $0471 to change " BASIC BYTES FREE " to whatever chars you want (any of the fields actually).

For example, if you change them to:

$14 $14 $14 $14 $14 $14 
$20 $20 $20 $20 $20 $93

The $14 (DEL) will erase the "34811 " values, print spaces, and then CLR/HOME.

When you "boot", no more intro screen...just "READY.".

Why? Because it's 11pm and my Blender rendering still has a freak'n HOUR to go! 😂 It's pushing now 4+ hours for a 38m video!

A quotation from Racine

HIPPOLYTUS: Great crimes are never single, they are link’d
   To former faults. He who has once transgress’d
   May violate at last all that men hold
   Most sacred; vice, like virtue, has degrees
   Of progress; innocence was never seen
   To sink at once into the lowest depths
   Of guilt.
 
[HIPPOLYTE: Quelques crimes toujours precedent les grands crimes.
   Quiconque a pu franchir les bornes légitimes
   Peut violer enfin les droits les plus sacrés ;
   Ainsi que la vertu, le crime a ses degrés ;
   Et jamais on n’a vu la timide innocence
   Passer subitement à l’extrême licence.]

Jean Racine (1639-1699) French dramatist
Phèdre [Phædra], Act 4, sc. 2, l. 1094ff (1677-01-01) [tr. Boswell (1897)]

A quotation from Hannah Arendt

What makes it so plausible to assume that hypocrisy is the vice of vices is that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core.

Hannah Arendt (1906-1975) German-American philosopher, political theorist
On Revolution, ch. 2, sec. 5 (1963)

The battle for #Trump's succession is in full swing. US #Vice #President #Vance wants to force #Ukraine into a peace agreement with #Putin if necessary, while Secretary of State #Rubio opposes this, supporting #Europe, the #EU, and #NATO. The dispute also revolves around a goal that both men share.

My early "xmas" gift. Because I really needed one.

It's nice. No slop. Clamps straight. Wasn't that expensive. With a couple discounts it was cheaper than the beat up old used ones people try to sell for too much money around here.

Apart from the rotating base, it can also spin around its shaft and has a pipe clamp on the other (here bottom) side. Very handy for cutting a pipe without having to do awkward saw/grinder gymnastics.

Now I just need somewhere to bolt it too.

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

We may make mistakes — but they must never be mistakes which result from faintness of heart or abandonment of moral principle.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
Speech (1945-01-20), Inaugural Address, Washington, D.C.
