Walking in Light Persistent Rain

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Yesterday I walked in light persistent rain for around two hours and my trousers got a little wet. The rain was heavy enough for me not to be dry, but not heavy enough to soak me. During the walk I noticed, at one point, that the rain seemed to be aerosolised, floating upwards and sideways rather than straight down.

The wind was picking up so I suspect that it's the wind that changed the properties and behaviour of the rain.

Yesterday it rained for the entire day, so walking could not be done without being in the rain. I noticed that one person had a towel on his bike seat. Other people were wearing full rain suits, trousers, and a top, to avoid from getting drenched.

Near La Combe I saw that a person hole cover was lifted, and a pump was draining it of water build up, right into the street where people were walking.

This rain fell for 20-30 hours. Apparently some children, in the Jura were sad, because their snowmen were melted by the rain. Meanwhile I have seen multiple photos of deep snow in Avoriaz, Les Arcs and other Alpine ski resorts. For them the base layer has been falling and they can get ready for the ski season.

Today I will be walking in the sun, when I go for my daily walk.

@howto create a #USB #pendrive #live #persistent #ISO using #mkusb on #Linux @tutorial
RE: tupambae.org/objects/0ac89072-…

Photo of the initial desktop screen when starting the computer from a live USB persistent installation created with the linux program mkusb, i nthis case of ubuntuStudio 2022.04lts. Several option are available to initialize the system.

Esta descripción de crear un #pendrive #live #persistent debería funcionar con un #USB que tiene una live #ISO:

Step 3:
Create the Live USB with Persistence

Using #mkusb on #Linux

Install mkusb:
Open a terminal and run the command:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mkusb/ppa
        sudo apt update
        sudo apt install mkusb

Launch mkusb:
Type mkusb in the terminal and press Enter.
Select the ISO File:
Choose the downloaded ISO file from your file manager.
Select the Target Device:
Choose your USB drive from the list. Ensure you select the correct device to avoid data loss on other drives.
Select ‘Persistent live’:
In the options, select ‘Persistent live’ to ensure changes will be saved between sessions.
Customize Persistence Size:
You can specify how much space you want to allocate for persistence. Ideally, setting aside at least 2GB is reasonable for basic use.
Start the Process:
mkusb will then create the bootable USB with persistence. This process could take several minutes.
Complete:
Once the process is complete, safely eject the USB drive.

- Busqué en foros y parece que la versión #USB no guarda cambios de usuario (ej. Escribo la contraseña del #wifi cada vez que la inicio).

Esto es especificamente el detalle de #persistent.
#Live significa que se pueda usar como lo estas haciendo ahora en vivo desde el #USB sin instalar.
Persistente significa que se pueden hacer cambios que persisten en el tiempo, que estan cuando volves a reiniciar la maquina. Eso no solamente significa que te guarda ajustes como claves WIFI, particularidades de teclado, si no tambien que puedas actualizar el sistema e instalar programas o guardar archivos en el USB.
Para eso una instalacion persistente crea particiones secundarios en el USB, o sea, no solamente tendras:
/dev/sda

si no:
/dev/sda/
/dev/sda1/ = la ISO. No se puede escribir en este espacio. Quedan siempre los datos orginiales de la ISO.
/dev/sda2/ = espacio donde se puede escribir datos (writable) donde se anotan los cambios, actualizaciones, programas y demas.

Probablemente incluso sear algo como:
/dev/sda2/ = cambios de instalacion y programas
/dev/sda3/ = archivos personales, o sea la carpeta /home/:

/home/usuarioEstandard/
/home/caricosmica/
/dev/invitado/

Ultimamente estan haciendole mucha propaganda (boca a boca) al #MINT, como dije, no lo conozco.
Si sigue en pie el hecho de que te conviene usar siempre el mismo superficie de #linux y en este sentido considero que las capacidades de tu laptop son el denominador comun\minimo. Mas considerando por un lado como mencione que puedas visitar con el #laptop con #win7 clientes con necesidad de usar internet y despues esta el tema de que tu setup por ahi no es del todo extraño y que incluso pueda servirte como un ingreso extra. El tema es que si logramos identificar algo ideal para maquinas medias lentas y viejas y crear una ves una instalacion USB bien de bien persistente, despues es simplemente enchufar un segundo USB, abrir la terminal, pegar una linea de texto simple al estilo:
dd if=/dev/USB1/ of=/dev/USB2/
y en un santiamen tenes una copia identica del USB. Eso incluye todos los cambios y eventuales documentos explicativos de como usar el USB, considerando de que sea una version persistente. Vas a la cafeteria de la universidad, enchufas el USB en un laptop de alguien, lo arancan, le mostras en 5 minutos todo y "caja".
Colocas un aviso en mercado libre para vender USB y .. "caja".

Recomiendan instalar Linux en la misma partición que windows para elegir el sistema al encender. Basta con unos 100 GB libres, tengo más que eso.

Si y no.
Para empezar 100 GB es un disparate. Para una instalacion propia de lInux con 20 GB sobra. El resto es espacio para documentos y demas. En general, si puede que sea simple y probablemente en MINT y #ubuntu hoy en dia es un paar de clicks para instalar linux al lado de un windows.
Ahora ay un paar de detalles que hacen mas interesante de usar un disco para cada sistema operativo.
Para empezar te da mas seguridad en el sentido de que si se te jode un disco, seguis teniendo al menos un sistema funcionando, hasta que hayas resuleto el problema del disco. Lo que considero mucho mas importante es la capicidad de linux de instalar con sencilles todo el sistema encryptado. Significa que no se puede leer ni medio dato sin tener la contraseña inicial de arancar el disco. Considerando que la instalacion sera la de comunicacion por internet, email y manejo de cuentas bancarias, no importa si te roban la maquina o "los milicos te patean la puerta", no ay accesso a tus datos. Una instalacion asi es mucho mas complicado en un disco compartido con windows que en un disco entero.
Como mencione, instale en esta maquina aqui primero el #ubuntuStudio actual y despues decidi de volver a la version anterior. La instalacion de la version actual es incryptada y tiene por ejemplo mis email. Hacer la segunda instalacion de la version anterior tambien encryptada ya era todo un lio mas complicado y no queria correr el peligro de joderme la instalacion existente, asi que decidi hacer una instalacion simple, no ecryptada. Mi uso comun ahora es con la no encryptada, y cuando digo "a ver los mail", o por otras razones, reinicio y aranco la version recontraprotegida.
Ademas esta el tema de cambios de maquinas. Si mañana conseguis una compu mas nueva con #win11, simplemente sacas el disco de linux, lo pones en la nueva maquina, seguis con todo como esta y la vieja con #win10 se la das a alguien, o la guardas de ultimo recurso, yo que se. Seguira siendo una maquina entera.

Respecto al aranque inicial, es lo mismo si tenes un disco o dos, no veras diferencia en pantalla de inicio. Simplemente te pregunta linux o windows y le decis cual y ya esta.

@soldan

I do get a persistent history with sh (lacking the capabilities of csh) with a normal system instead of the live system.

I'm aware of issues such as <https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=278230>:

― 278230 – sh: Multiple instances overwrite each other's history

#FreeBSD #sh #persistent #history

/bin/sh: history: not found

Why no history with the live system after using FreeBSD Installer?

Is this a bug, or to be expected within the constraints of a FreeBSD live system?

Edit: the footnote from <https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-pkgbase/2025-August/000610.html>,

"[1] I’ve noticed on fresh installs, the default shell no longer has working persistent history, which is a *big* POLA violation, if people want to complain about something."

Great-tailed grackles in a #population toward the northern edge of their #range (Sacramento/Woodland, California) were less #related to each other, which means that they #dispersed farther from where they hatched 🐣 than grackles in a population nearer the center of their range (Tempe, Arizona).

In particular, females in Arizona stay closer to home 🏡 than males, while females in California disperse farther away from home ✈️ like the males do. To keep pushing the edge of the geographic range further, both males and females must be present so they can breed in the new areas.

Now we know that there are 2 things that are different about the grackles on the edge: they are more #persistent and they disperse farther from where they hatched (especially the females)

🔥 Hot off the press from #TheGrackleProject!
🌇 When the city comes to you, be #flexible
When you go to the city, be #persistent

Great-tailed grackles who were #trained to be more flexible used a wider variety of foods 🍿 and #foraging techniques, but had similar #habitat use patterns and #social behavior as non-trained grackles.

Given that this species is rapidly expanding its geographic #range 🗺️ and shifting more toward #urban 🏙️ and #arid 🏜️ environments in recent years, our finding could suggest that foraging breadth (the number of different food types an individual eats) is a factor in #adapting to #Human-modifiedEnvironments

I am trying to write a claim for a lawsuit, and the middle man resident hacker in my devices is always sabotaging my efforts.

I hoped a Chromebook would be a more difficult device to hack, but this was hacked from the get go. Whoever these criminals are, I am almost certain a law enforcement agency is facilitating the hacking tools.

After 7 years of sabotage, I recognize the "glitches"

@f @ai6yr @briankrebs I think it's less of a "#political" question but an act of #SelfDefense and #MutualDefense at this point.

So far @torproject / #TorBrowser set to highest security settings is the most secure option that has proper maintenance & track record and ain't a #TUI-only app like #LynxBrowser.

Re: #TechIlliterates that are unwilling to learn, act like a "#BenevolentDictator" and enshure they can't harm themselves in the sense that they don't get #sudo or other administrative privilegues and can't do any #persistent #changes.

And if that means they get forced to use #Tails then that's a "necessary evil"...

After all, societies almost everywhere ban people from driving motor vehicles faster than 6 km/h by people who actively refuse to even take basic exams and classes for a #DrivingLicense.

And I'm convinced one can do more damage as #TechIlliterate with a #PC than a single-cylinger two-stroke engine driven motorcycle...

@ai6yr @briankrebs OFC this targets #TechIlliterates and the only effective means here are:

Teach #TechLiteracy instead of consumerism.
Mandate #confirmation & #notification - #PopUp|s for every use of #Clipboard (similar to #webcam use by websites)...
Ban #JavaScript - seriously!
Ban #Windows, because it's a #Govware, espechally since #Windows10 and even more so on #Windows11 that is *insecure in every configuration!
Put #TechIlliterates before a system they can't feck up. I.e. @tails_live @tails / #Tails for that reason alone (can't run such commands if they neither got #root nor any #persistent #storage to target).
Normalize the use of @torproject #TorBrowser!
#Teach #tech #literacy instead of #consumerism!
Ban #GAFAMs and their shitty products!
Migrate every #TechIlliterate to #Linux and don't give them administrative privilegues.
Teach tech literacy instead of consumerism!

Screenshot of ProtonMail notification after I clicked the forward button. It says, "The original message you are trying to forward/reply to is in the process of being sent..." This could be HTML tampering by hackers. I'm using a public library computer and am a target of persistent hacking. I believe many users are hacked without realizing it, as the signs are often subtle and easy to overlook.
