  • Pasta, Soy, and Protein

    Screenshot (68)
    A response to those who ask where I get my protein. First, all plants have protein, second, when you eat large quantities of anything, the effects are multiplied. I can eat 1 pount of pasta in less than 30 minutes. When I’m really hungry, I can eat 2 pounds. That means that when eat this I will be eating somewhere between 42 and 84 grams of protein when I boil pasta, which I do frequently because it’s so dirt cheap. And there are many like this which add vegetables into the pasta. My advice to anyone is to eat like a horse to be as strong as a horse. My coworkers at Brillient and at Hy-Vee are my witnesses of my strength. They frequently ask me questions when they find out I’m a Vegan. If only they had the full picture.
     
    And also, Soymilk is great for protein as well. There is the rumors about soy causing man boobs and this scares many off from soy products, but first, it doesn’t work, which is most unfortunate or it would be more popular than it currently is. Then all those who wanted big boobs would be buying more plant products that don’t kill animals. That would also have a bizarre impact on natural selection if you dig deep into that.
     

  • Internet at Home

    I have Xfinity internet now! I have confirmed that my laptop, phone, and Nintendo Switch all connect to it! I have the xFi app on my phone that allows me to set the network name and password. This is cool because it means that anyone who tries to connect to wifi networks in this area will see my name in the list. They’ll probably wonder who I am if they don’t already know me.

    But more importantly, now that I have home internet, this means that I should be able to do recorded talks with my Vegan friends again who I miss very much. It’s hard being the only one in your area who prefers not to murder animals. Too bad the Black Rose moved to Canada! The internet is the way for minorities to meet that would not otherwise!

    It also means that uploading backups of my programming projects is also possible. I have plans with my Binary Bit Map format and I want to make my own graphics library for my personal use that is simplified to the point where drawing pixels, rectangles, or regular polygons is so easy that I can explain it to others. I would probably want to use an existing graphics library as part of one of the multimedia libraries like SFML, SDL, Allegro, or FLTK. Then my code can call the other functions and the possibilities will be endless.

  • FLTK

    I can compile FLTK programs now. Here is the Hello World program. I have no idea how it works but if I spend months learning about it then maybe I could do similar things with it as I did SDL and Allegro. It’s probably overpowered for what I need since I mostly just care about drawing shapes to the window.

    The reason I decided to try FLTK was because of Tiny Core Linux using it for its window manager. It’s smaller than other toolkits so theoretically it would be easier to learn.

  • Open Book

    When I went through the EQUIP system for the government background check to get hired for my current job, of course they wanted to know absolutely everything. I left nothing out, even my name Chastity White Rose that I go by on my online accounts. I did mention being transgender on the comments for that form. I wanted to be sure that when I got my job that this was known. I didn’t want to be fired because they considered me mentally ill over it or something.

    And there are of course there are non discrimination laws but as I was telling the HR manager. People DO discriminate and make up fake reasons why they refuse to hire people or fire them.

    I keep no secrets. In fact my friend Poffo will tell you, I share too much information about myself at times.

    But I also know how to not tell personal information about other people that I should not.

    But as for me, I’m an open book. There is nothing that can’t be known about me from my YouTube channel alone.

    But the only thing anyone needs to know is that I do the best I can to live my life, work my job, pay my bills, and avoid hurting anyone of any species. I’m Chastity White Rose, the Vegan Virgin.

  • Installing Tiny Core Linux

    I got Tiny Core Linux on my USB device. This is what I did.

    I downloaded the “CorePlus-current.iso” file.

    I used rufus to format it with syslinux 4.07 and all the right options. Then made all the filename changes and text changes in syslinux.cfg as it said to.

    This page from the wiki has the relevant information on changes to make:
    http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/wiki:install_usb_stepbystep

    The part I needed from the “Option 2” section of the page:

    —
    Run RUFUS and make the following selections
    “Device” – Select desired USB (Verify correct USB volume size)
    “Boot selection” – Select “Syslinux 4.07” from drop down menu
    “Partition Scheme” – Select “MBR”
    “Volume label” – Enter desired USB name
    “File System” – “Fat32” (Or Fat16 if necessary)
    “Create extended label and icon files” – Uncheck
    Leave all others – Default
    “Start” – Select
    Download latest Tinycore/CorePlus ISO
    Mount and Extract the contents (copy both “BOOT” & “CDE” directories) of either Tinycore/CorePlus ISO to the USB Drive
    Within the USB drive, rename the directory “cde” to “tce”
    Within the USB\”boot” directory,
    rename the directory “isolinux” to “syslinux”
    Within the USB\boot\”syslinux” directory,
    rename “isolinux.cfg” to “syslinux.cfg”
    rename “isolinux.bin” to “syslinux.bin”
    edit “syslinux.cfg” to replace all instances of “cde” with “waitusb=5”
    Reboot and select to boot from your USB device.
