The Jesus Inquest By Charles Foster

21 Apr
Have you ever started something and then thought "What in the world was i thinking?" Well that's the way i felt after i started the book The Jesus Inquest by Charles Foster. In this book we have two individuals in a debate X the anti-theist and Y the theist. In my opinion it came across like this. X is the anti-theist, Y is the theist and Bible believer when it suits him, then me the reader 100% Bible Believer.

Growing my own Pineapple

17 Apr

So i have been watching Ray on his channel and saw his How to grow a pineapple indoors. I have linked the relevant videos below.

And here is an update, it's late in the video.

And the harvest.

This is not something that will happen in one season so i don't expect to have a pineapple here soon. This is just something fun to do with the kids. We also have several plants out in our growing station that Simon and i built. It was something just fun to do so we did it.

I am planing on doing some timelapse photos with some of the plants we have going this year. I just am waiting for the power adapter for my camera to show up. Using gphoto and a cron job i should be able to get this done.

 

I wanted to note that the parent plant was 8 1/2 inches tall. So let's see how big junior grows.

Restore Windows MBR Bootloader using Linux

30 Mar

However this did work and the user was very happy to have his laptop booting again.  (even if it is into windows) You will want to have the syslinux package installed. The linuxmint boot usb stick he had for me already had the tools so it was easy to work with.

sudo dd if=/usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin of=/dev/sda

And that's it. You will now have your machine booting again. There was a second solution
