    Good God, the ENTIRE interior is one icky tan color. WTF, over? And where are the quarters for the help? Do the rich have time to learn all that's needed to occupy and run this beast? This thing is truly a rolling obscenity. Uugh! And the non locking low slung cargo spaces, guess this means...

    Yes, I use Chrome for a few things. Thank you very much for letting me know what "Blocktube" is.

    Data Breach--but only two billion records

    Uuh, placation sounds less than great. I guess "hiding your light under a bushel" is a strange phrase. But it's never meant insultingly, to the best of my oh so limited knowledge.

    Aw shucks Dan. You know plenty more than I do about Linux. Trying to hide your light under a bushel? But a bushel of what, that's my Q?

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    What a severe punishment! It's sad that we Americans just love to punish others. The confusing and unnatural thing is that Texans think they live in a great place. Kewel, please stay in that "paradise" Texans. Also weird, Oklahomans envy those that live in Texas. Crazy world, or what?

    No, I'm not throttling the CPU. My electric bill is already sky high, why mess up a good thing? Thank you very much for your time and efforts on my behalf, Gizmo! Firefox, hmm. Haven't used it for quite a while. So there's no chance that running Blocktube is protecting my box from something...

    Which part, the I don't know part. Or the running the "top" command in Terminal?

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    Wowsa, that's special. What a great memory to have! I've been across the panhandle a couple times. As a kid I liked the big emptiness of it. As an adult the monstrousness of Texas just rubbed me the wrong way.

    Why, why...this RV is far nicer than my home. 70K is a bit high, but if you have it flaunt it. The American way! Ooh, ooh! And you need a double wheeled truck to pull it, they are so cute. Do any of these fifth wheels have brakes on the wheels? You'd think that would be awful nice.

    I'm glad that I'm getting better. Thank you many times for paying great attention to avoid that "someone is after me" problem with my somewhat psycho'd psyche.

    Thank you Gizmo, it was indeed a teaching moment! I don't know how to get a screenshot of this, but the "top" command in Terminal brings up the very first item: blocktube CPU1 (99.yadda percent followed by: blocktube CPU2 (99.yadda per cent Argh, my...

    Don't know how to pull up a shell. Apologies! Running the top command in terminal, is that it?

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    Bad mood, yeah that's me once in a while. The funny thing about The Band is that they write and perform what you could call "American Music" so strongly that no on else can top them. Those Canadians, it's always something! I like "Evangeline" a lot, the imagery it provokes is mighty...

    I'm not sure about all four cores being active in BIOS. But all of the cores are doing work if that means anything. Sometimes one core will drop to zero usage for a few seconds. Thanks for your reply.

    How wonderful, I envy your serenity! I hope that I may become much better off between the ears--there's plenty of room for improvement.

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    "Evangeline," she sang it with The Band. Don't know if she recorded it with just her voice or not.

    Data Breach--but only two billion records

    Once in a while I run my System Monitor for the heck of it. After many hours of running the box I often find that one core is running at 100% utilization. Why? Dunno. Recently TWO cores were running at 100%. WTH, over? This makes me think--hopefully incorrectly--that someone has hacked my...
