@zapper . . . I suggest you get to know greenjeans and his motivations better. He is doing it not only for the challenge but for people in his local community and I accept your apology on his behalf!

That might as well be in Swahili. It is unintelligible to my old ears. Don't you have better things to do, zapper? Try staring at a blank wall. It would be preferable to that nonsense . . .

A better question might be, why are you using anything Pulse Audio?

Many species are tool makers. Sadly, the tools/solutions that humans create often prove to be more destructive than beneficial. We just keep bumbling along without much of a clue, following our whims (and profits) and more or less making it up as we go along. The fashions change. Tools change. Challenges change. But we never seem to learn that the solution is not OUT THERE or with the latest gizmo. The solution is internal for each and every one of us to discover.

@stargate-sg1-cheyenne-mtn . . . I found https://www.vhemt.org/ many years ago . . . possibly even before Devuan existed!  I know I posted a link to that site somewhere on this forum but alas, atm my search fu sucks. The VHEMT message was not new to me. I had figured that out in the 70s and did not contribute the exploding population. We are definitely the most destructive species on the planet.

@chomwitt . . . Sentient beings are driven mostly by desire and anger and sunk in delusion with only an occasional dollop of generosity or kindness or clarity coming to the surface. Look around the world. There are still caste systems and slavery and wars and oppression alive and well. Now not pharaohs but corporate-driven states and power-hungry madmen. "Technical progress" as the solution is not only a deluded fantasy but dangerous when those in charge are incompetent. It has ever been thus. We keep moving laterally, entranced by new toys thinking that will "fix" things yet we always end up with a rerun that's been played out since the Neanderthals walked the earth. Until WE evolve we'll keep endlessly playing out the same dynamic.

Well . . . you do not surprise (or entertain) me. Whatever the "bait" was escapes me. Zzzzzzzzzz . . .

@tux_99 . . . I don't disagree with you assessment of the ethos of the "offensive" comment. But I also defend the validity of my assessment. Since you arrived I was hoping you might find a niche other than posting on the forum. Too many talkers and not enough doers will not stem the assault coming from Debian et all . . .

"Peace" is not 'out there' and dependent on someone else's actions. Let criticism roll off like water on a duck's back . . .
