[Today’s run: 3.2 miles]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I did some wrestling that that Intel Nuc<\/a> I bought awhile ago. I was intending to use it for my work. I have some scripts that run gstreamer to simulate the cameras we use for our multi-camera vehicle systems that we are working on. I was running them on my work laptop but they were swamping the processor. I thought I could run them on the Nuc separate from the other stuff running on the laptop and maybe that would all work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, I had it kind of working but not completely. And the Nuc didn’t boot up correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So I changed the script a bit and used a slightly different simulated camera. Instead of using “snow” I used solid color. Since it is not dynamic it was no longer hard on the laptop processor and I can drop the Nuc idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After work I worked on the boot up of the Nuc. I updated the firmware. And I fiddled around in a general way and eventually it started to boot ok without having to go into the manual boot selection screen. So that was a win as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My work laptop is starting to have some keyboard issues. I usually use an external keyboard, so it doesn’t bother me a lot. But I’ve decided to ask for a new one. I was told when I opened a ticket on the keyboard issue that I am due for a newer machine if I need it. We were unable to fix the keyboard issue, so today I put in the request for a new laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has had a hard life. The front right corner is all dented up. I had it out one time while working on a big 4WD loader. I had set it on one of the tires, which are about 4 feet tall. It fell off and landed on the ground and made a dent on that corner. I’ve been using it for over two years like that and I don’t think that is causing the keyboard issue. I think my keyboard probably has dirt in it. But there isn’t much I can do about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were doing our breakfast Bible reading this morning. The church publishes a cycle of weekly readings based on the Westminster Confession. We started over recently, so we are currently in the early 10 comandments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reading was from Deuteronomy 29, about the issue of worshiping other gods, and I noticed something I had not seen before:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

24 <\/sup>All the nations will say, \u2018Why has the Lord done all<\/em> this to this land? Why this great [h<\/a>]<\/sup>outburst of anger?\u2019 25 <\/sup>Then people<\/em> will say, \u2018It is<\/em> because they abandoned the covenant of the Lord, the God of their fathers, which He made with them when He brought them out of the land of Egypt. 26 <\/sup>And they went and served other gods and worshiped them, gods that they have not known and whom He had not allocated to them.,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I noticed that use of “allocated”. It is used in the context of a prophetic quote of other people, so I don’t know if that gives it any theological weight. But I thought it was interesting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
