brazen spam caller

Posted on January 13, 2022 by | Leave a comment

I have to answer my work phone whether I recognize the number or not, so I usually answer and immediately hit the mute button until I see who it is.

The spam callers will usually say “hello” a couple of times plus “can you hear me,” then hang up.

Yesterday, one of the usual idiots from India, said “hello” a couple of times then ended the call with “c**k sucker.”

I didn’t have time to unmute and say “do you know me?” 😜

They are getting so brazen.

I’m not usually into this look, but it reminded me of Brad Pitt in Thelma and Louise.

People start talking about certain ministers in town, and I start thinking, “talks a good game but total tool of the establishment.”

UbuntuDDE – Linux

Posted on January 8, 2022 by | Leave a comment

I have been curious about UbuntuDDE, which is Ubuntu with the Deepin Desktop Environment (DDE). DDE is the desktop environment of the Deepin Linux distribution.

“Deepin is the top Linux distribution from China, devoted to providing a beautiful, easy-to-use, safe, and reliable operating system for global users.” (Wuhan Deepin Technology Co.,Ltd)

It is supposed to be “Beautiful and Wonderful,” so I had to see it. I downloaded the image and booted live from USB stick.

It really seems to be beautiful and wonderful. I played with it for a few, took this screenshot of the default desktop, then went back to my usual system, which is Linux Mint with Xfce desktop.

I didn’t spend much time with UbuntuDDE due to being very pleased with what I already use. I can keep it in mind for the future.
