Deviation Actions
There are many psalms of many flavors. They offer comfort, they exhort praise, they give you insight into the mind of someone who was going through troubles that may be similar to something you are going through, or have gone through.
Hide me from the scheming of wicked people, from the mob of evildoers, who sharpen their tongues like swords and aim bitter words like arrows, shooting from concealed places at the innocent. They shoot at him suddenly and are not afraid. They encourage each other in an evil plan;
- Psalm 64:2-5a
In my distress I called to the Lord, and He answered me. “Lord, deliver me from lying lips
and a deceitful tongue.”
- Psalm 120:1-2
I lift my eyes to You, the One enthroned in heaven. Like a servant’s eyes on his master’s hand, like a servant girl’s eyes on her mistress’s hand, so our eyes are on the Lord our God until He shows us favor. Show us favor, Lord, show us favor, for we’ve had more than enough contempt. We’ve had more than enough scorn from the arrogant and contempt from the proud.
- Psalm 123
How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony! It is like fine oil on the head, running down on the beard, running down Aaron’s beard onto his robes. It is like the dew of Hermon falling on the mountains of Zion. For there the Lord has appointed the blessing — life forevermore.

So many people have left
I pop on every once in awhile, sometimes I check to see if any of the people I used to follow, or who follow me are active at all. But it seems more than a few of them have left dA pretty much for good, they removed all their deviations. :( Makes me sad.
Back to Mac?
Well, I am an OS buff as well as a computer hardware buff... I have been building my own computers for awhile now, but when I saw that Apple was moving to RISC and their own CPU to boot... had to do it. So it is time to go back to Apple! I picked up a new Mac Mini M1, and an OWC expansion... Excited to get it. Coming a week after Christmas. If you haven't read up on the technology, go take a look at it. I used Mac Mini's for YEARS before I started building out my own boxes because of their simplicity and because of the unix-based Mac OS X. Prior to that my favorites were an old Amiga workstation, power PCs... etc. I had home-built Be boxes too. I just enjoy the tech. So, despite the fact I will be taking a hit in my Steam games account (many of the games won't work well, at least for the first year or so I am sure), I am going to go for it. I will post pics when I get it.
Ubuntu to Pop
Well now! Remember I said I thought I would try giving Ubuntu a year? That was before a Snap install/then deinstall hosed the entire system. Yes that is right. I installed some Snaps to do some work, once the work was done I decided to remove one of the Snaps and my system started behaving oddly. So, I rebooted.
Guess what never came back?
I was a little unhappy with that.
Pop!_OS (based on Ubuntu with tweaks) released their own 20.04 Beta so I decided to install that (I've used Pop for nearly a year solid at one point when it first came out - good distro). Pop enables flatpak but I do not believe snaps are on by default, but to be s
Ubuntu 20.04 Beta
Decided to check out the almost released next LTS (long term support) version of Ubuntu. When Ubuntu first came out, I hopped on board and ran it as my linux distro for several years. But things happened, stuff was changed, blah blah and I stopped using Ubuntu. In fact I am pretty sure I haven't really touched it in over a decade, except maybe I did install Kubuntu and ran it briefly.
It installed easily through the ubiquity installer. I installed alongside of Windows 10 (gotta keep Windows around for a handful of games, and sometimes to test ideas for work). Canonical has made some changes to the default theme, including a new icon set
