schestowitz[TR3]> Thanks! It's been a difficult time. Hopefully, we'll get everything back up & running soon.Jul 09 02:32
schestowitz[TR3]Let us know if we can help in some way... (pulling  PCLinuxOS Magazine pages from our archives, which we have... a bot downloads every page we link to). Jul 09 02:32
schestowitz[TR3]> The mushrooms have been popping up in some of the British and Irish Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> press.  It was even on the CNN home page on the same day as Trump Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> bombing Iran.  Sadly people were distracted by Trump and didn't notice Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> the dangers of Australian mushrooms.Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> A sleepy little village in Australia where three people died and the Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> local baptist priest was the sole survivor.Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> Despite everybody from CNN to the Daily Mail covering the mushroom Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> story, nobody noticed that Father X briefly came out of retirement to Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> visit the local Catholic church in the same village.Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> Erin Patterson was convicted for putting death cap mushrooms into a Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> lunch. Father X faced no consequences for putting pedophile priests into Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> schools and hospitals.Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> The "Father X" thing is not just a gimmick.  Have you noticed in most Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> abuse cases, the suspect is named publicly but in cases involving incest Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> or trafficking of family members, the name of the suspect is suppressed, Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> even after conviction, to prevent anybody identifying possible victims Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> related to the suspect by name or other circumstances?  What I found Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> could be worst of the worst.  I am trying to publish select insights Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> without revealing what and who I know.  I appreciate your trust in Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> syndicating this content but I also kindly ask that if you come across Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> extra details joining the dots, please don't publish that.Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> Look at how the press covered the baker's dozen, no names, not even the Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> name of the city can be published:Jul 09 04:03

schestowitz[TR3]> Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> The video hosting is more critical to some of my projects.  I already Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> converted some of my existing videos to HLS to see if it is reliable and Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> if it reduces bandwidth requirements.  HLS content can be placed on any Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> static hosting server.  If the server becomes congested the JavaScript Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> client is supposed to detect that and switch to a lower resolution for Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]> the next 10 second chunk of video.Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]Did you notice that this week people discuss how Canonical hired a sex offender who engaged in incest and sexually abused his young sister  (if not sisters) over 1000 times?Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]He signed the anti-RMS petition.Jul 09 04:03
schestowitz[TR3]Many in Canonical knew, it was also connected to the Church. Remember that Scam Altman was also sued by his own young sister for sexual crimes.Jul 09 04:03

schestowitz[TR3]> they'll have it complete very soon.Jul 09 04:05
schestowitz[TR3]> Jul 09 04:05
schestowitz[TR3]> Thanks!Jul 09 04:05
