As one of those who noted the omission, I’ll just agree with the current top comments here: you’re doing great, just keep on doing what you do! I especially enjoyed the punch cards video, the technical details were fascinating to learn about.
Hi Christopher.
I was unable to test the Saucy images and the latest mainline kernel, as they refuse to boot/install on the Amilo due to lack of PAE support.
jani@kingugidora:~$ LC_ALL=C sudo dpkg –install linux-image-3.11.0-031100rc6-generic_3.11.0-031100rc6.201308181835_i386.deb

This kernel does not support a non-PAE CPU.

I guess the only (unimportant) question remaining is how come I was able to boot -pae kernels on this very same device back in the pre-release times (3.2.0-[<23]) – perhaps those earlier kernels didn’t properly detect the lack of PAE?
The wireless now (with the current 3.2.0-52-generic #78-Ubuntu) seems to somehow work without wistron_btns.
I’m not sure how to deal with the tags & bug status in this case, so I’ll leave it to your discretion. If you have further ideas to test, I’ll be happy to provide, but closing this report (perhaps as ’Invalid’) is also fine by me.
”Wanted Dubai a game…” I see what you did there.
That drilling noise must be getting on her nerves.
…and the one behind you looks like a pterosaur that are not dinosaurs at all.

Tämän takia minusta ei koskaan tullut puhepodcastien kuuntelijaa, tekstissä on paljon helpompi hypätä taaksepäin juuri sen verran kuin tarvii. Ja tekstinkin kanssa minulle käy näin, joskin harvemmin kuin pakkosyöttö-puheen kanssa. Puhe vain vyöryy eteenpäin vaikka huomioni kiinnittyisi muualle, silmien eteneminen tekstissä sentään pysähtyy ajatuksen voimalla heti tarvittaessa.
Wow, that is seriously twisted. Thanks for sharing. I’m glad you see things as you do, about her being the failure that she was; you could have been brainwashed to actually believe how she’d have you believe, that it was somehow your fault and not all hers. Then again you probably wouldn’t have survived, and the fact that you have goes to prove that you really are strong as you say.
I think one explanation for the perceived change in your mother’s behavior might be that children start out quite flexible and unquestioning towards their parents, and only gradually start developing their own will and identity. It could be she never was any good in raising up a real person, so you only came in full contact with her deficiency as a parent once you began to manifest personality. When you are very small, you more readily accept anything a parent may force on you no matter how wrong it actually is. It’s only later that you begin to have a sense of entitlement and are more likely to pursue what you feel is right for you, which sets you on a collision course with the parent that can’t deal with a child that is a real person and not just a dummy.
