On the homogenisation of time

Three stages of before during and after, are naturally occurring phenomenon. We live in the entropic one way street that is called the passing of time. Our universe, galaxy, solar system, and planet all rotate through time, so it's normal for humans to have evolved biological underpinnings that are dependent on these three stages. It can be felt in the subconscious urges that we experience eventually as hunger, or desire... The before. The ecstacy of the now, during. And the denouement, the after. Consciously accessed experiences, manifest as future memory, working memory and attention, and short and long-term memory. These distinctions reflect the rising and falling of cycles, their repetitive nature, the foundation of life itself, life as we know it, complete with the cycle of life and death, growth, maturation, renewal. The psychological impacts of these three stages have been studied and exploited to generate compulsive behaviours, consumerist behaviours, by stimulating and pro...

Scientific religious philosophical mashup

I always thought of vajrayana as Tibet's highest yoga tantra, a serious and esoteric practice that has a precise and well defined goal. I'm pretty sure that's the lightning path, for liberation in a single lifetime. Trying to squash the theory of evolution, quantum physics, and astronomy into a paradigm of realms, kalachakra, and rebirth just seems to me to be asking for confusion. Maybe it can be a fun exercise, to decode and conceptualise vajrayana in modern scientific terms, but what's the point? Does it help in your practice? Does it develop science? Or is it just for a laugh at the nonsensical conclusions it leads to? Or worse, to create an illusion to which to cling, another obstacle in the path? Again, it's like precisely calculating the foot size of angels, given a pin, and how many are dancing on it's head. I've always thought suffering is related to the mental scramble, the mental acrobatics, people endure trying to come to terms with reality. The ...

Nougat 7.1.1 (crDroid) on my LG G3

Image
I became a custom ROM fan with my Galaxy S2 and CyanogenMod years ago...and loved it so much that I consulted CM forums when it came time to upgrade to a new phone. I wanted to get a model that was well supported by the CM community, and settled on and LG G3. I had no trouble running CM 12.1 on it for a year or two...granted there were a few non-functioning features (wireless charging, NFC) but that didn't bother me immensely. At some point I started getting an error message...'Unfortunately Photos has stopped working', or something to that effect. This error began after transfering a photo to the phone from a portable HD through USB OTG. That error, and a second bug that caused my camera to hang, and delay about 3 seconds between pressing the photo buttton and actually capturing the image, made me seek out a new ROM. I watched a great vid from Max Lee  at LGG3root.com, found the crDroid distro for my D855, and combined it with Open GAPPS Pico package as suggested. A...

Output PC audio to speakers and Bluetooth device

Image
I was searching for a solution to play music in a second room, through a Bluetooth speaker that is connected to my PC...but I wanted to maintain playback through the speaker system directly connected to the PC.  A quick google search brought up a forum that suggested this (donation based) software, VB-Audio VoiceMeter. VB-Audio VoiceMeeter Don't forget to adjust the delay if you need to sync up the two outputs (menu>settings) Don't forget to change windows default audio device to the VB Audio Voicemeter.   Exactly what I was looking for!

Batch upload videos to Youtube from Synology DS

Image
Like many people, I thought it would be great to backup my videos to my Synology DS , and then have the DS upload them to youtube. Infact, the documentation claims Photostation 6 can do this from withing the DSM. Sadly it turns out that you can only send them one at a time to Youtube from Photostation. My workaround has been: Install Cloud Sync package on Synology. Set up my GDrive account in CloudSync to sync in one direction (upload from Synology only). On the DS, copy a batch of movies from their usual directory to the new sync directory for GDrive. Sit back and wait, as synology moves all those files to GDrive. The next day, go to Youtube, click upload.  Select, 'upload from Photos'. Here I find all the movies that synology moved to gdrive. Youtube still has to process them, but the batch upload is done, and the processing doesn't take too long. When processing is done, I remove the movies from the sync directory on DS, which seems to automatically d...

How do backup a Windows 7 Machine to a Network attached Drive (WD - Microsoft Community

How do backup a Windows 7 Machine to a Network attached Drive (WD - Microsoft Community : Mr Z in Alaska replied on August 8, 2012 In reply to ToddPowers's post on July 13, 2012 just found this handy solution on another forum trying to slove the same problem. It comes from a user named Tech Michael I realize this is an old post, but still a relevant topic. Windows 7 Home Premium *CAN BE BACKED UP TO NETWORK* via the following work-around: Disk Management > Create VHD (Virtual Hard Drive) on the NETWORK Attach/Mount VHD (automatic upon creation) > Initial & Assign local drive letter Backup to VHD saved on the network. My VHD is set to automatically expand as needed which I realize will eventually overrun the network storage, but I can always manage backups manually. Hope that helps!!! Michael

Setting up Synology VPN Server on Diskstation 415+, with remote file system access

Image
I am a total noob at this networking stuff. Thanks to Synology Disk Station Management (DSM) GUI it seems fairly reasonable, despite the learning curve. My goals are: to create a VPN that I can access from abroad and use to browse the internet. to create a mapped network drive on a remote laptop that will save backups to the server at home. It all seems fairly straight forward. DSM allows you to install 'packages', such as Proxy Server, VPN Server, Easy-Internet, etc... The first thing I did was create a 'Quickconnect' Account. This allowed me to access the DSM remotely through a browser outside of my LAN. I set up an L2TP/IPSec type VPN in VPN Server package, and after some fiddling with Android, was able to connect while on my WiFi. I figured I needed some DDNS service to log in remotely, but it didn't make sense to have to find a 3rd party service. I then finally found this blog entry:  Secure Public Internet with Synology VPN and Proxy - Travis ...

LG G3 for CyanogenMod

Image
I had to ask myself if I was a bit crazy to mess with a perfectly good, brand new (1 year old model) smartphone, shipped to me with Android 5.0 Lollipop...why mess around and install a custom ROM? I have been using a Samsung Galaxy SII i9100 for a few years now, running CM (11-20140916-snapshot-M10-i9100 most recently). While this was a great phone, and still is infact! I have been 'forced' to upgrade to a device with 4G. What's so great about CyanogenMod...Privacy. Not only do you get the latest Android releases, despite manufacturers not sending updates...you get Privacy Gaurd. This is the main reason that I choose to run CM over stock android. I was able to root, get SU, and flash TWPG and CM in a few hours, including my stupid mistake... I followed the following guides: https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_d855 http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/guide-root-lg-firmwares-kitkat-lollipop-t3056951 Which led me to download: https://pl...
