I would like to have an oscilloscope. -

I should get the Gutenberg version of Tess and see how the formatting measures up. The Amazon ones vary in quality. -

It doesn't look like FBreader is available for my Kindle. Oh well. The solution I already have already works. -

I'll have to check it out. Since Project Gutenberg was flat text only for 20 years I hadn't realized they did ebooks. -

I've not tried .mobi books. The PDFs I've uploaded are readable but missing a lot of features like font resizing. Maybe it's better now. -

It's worth it to buy it for $0 from Amazon because the formatting is already done. -

Well, there's a free version in the Kindle store. Probably from a Gutenberg text. -

Looks pretty cheap in the Kindle store. I'll have to add it to my list of classics I probably won't get around to reading. -

It was rolled with a big stem near the surface that punched through the wrapper. Disappointing but I guess it happens. -

Maybe there are other distros that work pretty well, but for me Debian has always been dependable. -

Smoking a big Montecristo Cabinet Seleccion !cigar. Nice flavor although the wrapper is flaking a bit. That last part may be my fault. -

It's amazing how unusable the Github interface is. I expected it to be good because it's so popular. Obviously I am stupid. -

Debian is still the best thing there is. My Debian desktop requires so little maintenance and just does its job. -

I've always been fascinated by deep sea creatures. The kind that can't live in normal pressures. Now I can see them on YouTube. -

You seem to have trouble with double negatives so I'm not sure I'm ready to explain the virtues of not coughing. -

No it's good that I'm not coughing. I think I have a cold. -

I took some cough medicine so I'm a little bit dazed. At least I'm not coughing anymore. -

Working through the Inkscape tutorials again. Hoping I learn some of it this time. I guess I need a project to work on to make it stick -
