J fell into the mood for pensive solitude.

It appears that the blogosphere has passed its peak of contents output volume a few years ago.

And I have been consuming less and less of their contents, too.

I much prefer a GUI Linux to a GUI Microsoft Windows, each of which has got its own pros and cons.

The real clincher for me is the little Terminal application possessed in Linux.

The houses roofs in Montreal must be emblazoned with marks of severe winter weather.

For me, JOMO seems to be inherently elusive.

Horticulture and agriculture produce goods which please human beings' eyes and stomachs.

Yet, their monetary values have been steadily diminishing.

For that matter, so in this day and age, young people are disproportionately into synthetic goods. Well...

The debacle of Yahoo's massive web mail hack makes me for one think twice about security.

I need to beef up my own security measures.

There's one problem about today's formal education.

It makes one be more apt to consider that many jobs are menial work.

Is Mr. Donald Trump exploiting any loopholes in the American system?

By the way, that guy seems to have skills to make more and more people vehemently protest against him.

For that matter, any kind of serious reforms are likely deemed to cause public stirs in a democracy, for better or for worse.

Women ask, "where did all the chivalrous men go?"

Duh.

What goes around comes around.

Now Evernote is back in full gear from the downtime hours ago.

Way to go, the Ops people at Evernote.

Many American female celebrities' publicity gimmicks know no boundaries.

T'is flu season in high gear.

And saliva is an omnipresent way by which diseases spread to more and more people.

The two words 'abjure' and 'conjure' are still hard for me.

I cut my teeth on Linux Mint 13, and now I'm eyeing Fedora and Ubuntu Desktop.

People like to call their pets names, such as "Michael" and "Elena."

And people like to call their Linux boxes names like "Euphoria" and "rob-notebook". Mine is named "Mint-17-*", and it sounds euphonious.

"Global variable." The name rhymes, doesn't it?

Software developers in the know endeavor to find advantageous Linux distros for dev.

However, the leading pack of distros seem to be always in a state of flux.

Since I came to Canada, I've been fond of document sheets with perforated lines.

The widespread unmitigated poverty in Kenya seems to be beyond comprehension.

Wish them prosperity.

In this day and age, a woman wants to be on his man's back, and vice versa.

Order, please.

People in different countries jostle for opportunities.

But what kinds of infrastructure are supporting them? And how much are the costs?

Chillax, folks.

I'm not asleep. Not by a long shot.

I've been nearly absent from Facebook for years. I went JOMO and avoided wasting my time on social media.

For a long time, I've been titivating my Linux Mint 17 Cinnamon, an OS that is efficient and elegant.

Meanwhile, the budding Elementary OS is a swankier distribution of Linux. But I'm concerned about its immaturity as well as possible security risks.

The free Sublime Text editor is such a nagware.

Try to empty vainglorious thoughts.

Nothing good comes out of it.

Today I've gotten to know that 'paladin' is a real word and it occupies its place in the formal dictionary.

Chez moi, c'est froid.

How should a woman who uttered the word "udder" be thought about?

I'm befuddled by the South Korean society reported in news media.

The commonplace North American cuisine is the opposite of the reputedly delectable French cuisine.

Vim, the terminal skill.

I've only dipped my toes in that jam.

As a man grows mature, he becomes circumspect.

It's alleged that Uber regularly flouts laws.

Now the bracing winter holidays are over. Back to business as usual. And the world is still chaotic.

It seems that the seemingly demure Fortran programming language is still well alive in the field of scientific computing.

Où est mon temps?

"Rien ne sert de courir, il faut partir à point."

Mammon almost rules the United States. And the United States almost rules the world.

Now what are the consequences?

Generally speaking, Italians look snazzier than the French, I guess?

We are used to that Canadian luminaries are overshadowed by their American counterparts south the border.

Let's just live our somewhat quieter Northern life, whilst watching the world come and go.

In the deluge of increasingly rapid changes in this world, there is much frivolity.

What does Qatar want to do?

Its aspirational Al Jazeera is a marvelous news medium.

In my mind, Latin America has got a festive flair associated with it.

There are Linux enthusiasts. There are web design enthusiasts.

And there even are self-styled "life enthusiasts."

Well, we as individuals have to withstand the market economy.

A blizzard of abnormally warmer days might be awaiting Montreal this winter.

I could never get how Mr. Stephen Harper, the previous PM of Canada, could say that there was no climate change.

Financial Times is a lucid news medium, as well as Nikkei BP. Last year the latter bought the former.

All in all, the number of superb major news media companies is one less than before in the world.

Let's get down to brass tacks. Why did the cheap yet shoddy products become so prevalent in Canada in the first place?

As a people, Chinese needs to ameliorate its negative legacies, as well as to cherish its positive heritage.

Many Chinese bean curds have pungent smells.

But they are tasty in the mouth, as well as nutritious for the body.

So if they were expunged from the diet, that would be a poignant loss.

Somewhat like the case with many kinds of cheese.

"Demain C'est Toi".

François Feldman, un "Magic Boul'vard". Salut.

Les jupes en été.

Une déception.

The relatively nascent webrooming actually helps Walmart and alike and hurts Amazon and alike, essentially.

It's the opposite of showrooming.

There were too many things and some were over B.'s head. So he was too busy to come.

Yesterday's snow flurry made the sight a little blurry.

Many things carry tacitly.

It's said that Mr. Donald Trump voiced a lot of bombast.

You see so many young guys recline into their seats day in and day out.

Probably those think that's swag. But then you wonder what will happen to their backs.

Un hot dog.

Un nom, deux prononciations, en le français et en le anglais.

"Je pense donc je suis."

Couler à pic.

La algae pour mon riz.

To breach a wall, you need a tool, a means.

The two ornate words 'quietude' and 'quietus' are very closely related.

These years, I always feel comfortably fervent towards the terminal emulator application.

Even today in Montreal, I still heard a chirpy bird on a tree while I was walking.

Now it's December, not April or something.

By contrast, Vancouver is currently enduring snow storms.

The weather is really not as usual.

Well, some YouTube vids have to be spurned.

The government stands to adjudicate disputes, as well as to align interests, and to harmonize the society, to some lesser degree.

Les lettres 'v' et 'w' dans le vocabulaire.

Quitter ma maison du matin.

Le service de garde dans le école.

Public speakers coax and harangue people.

I increasingly buy less of what they say, whereas I increasingly buy more of reasoning and thinking for myself.

Our severe problem of information overload is exacerbated by the recommendation engines on YouTube and so on.

The Western marriage vow used to be "Till death do we part."

Now it turns out to be a hoax.

Hoaxers galore.

Linux aficionados are ubiquitous.

And I reckon that the prominent tornado of Ubuntu has landed ever more users onto the desktop platform of Linux.

It's tiring to watch all the moves of American trendsetters in tech.

Most people want to earn as much money as reasonably possible day in and day out.

Ergo, you have the typical nine to five schedule of a so-called full-time job.

Unfortunately, many Chinese online news media are outrageously flippant and inferior with regard to journalism.

Was United States a magnanimous country?

Is it one now?

Mon entrée: la poutine.

Un car scolaire à la Rue Guy?

Non.

Tout le vocabulaire de le français.

La rage.

Et le zeste.

Should the inveterate Department of Science reform in universities?

Yes, their course offerings are fundamental, but should they occupy so much partitions of students' precious undergraduate study time?

Things like pro wrestling and MMA entertain people day in and day out.

Chinese martial arts is a counterculture nowadays, worldwide.

In this world which is largely ruled by Java and Javascript, Python is my foible.

Like the Bash interpreter, the Python one is too neat for me to resist.

Every parent coaxes and commands his or her child.

There's no democracy here. The household is different than the political system.

To be frank with you, I'm fond of Linux way more than of Windows.

But, to be franker, I've already expended several years on learning about it, including the Bash, and it's no easy feat for people who just need a computer on which they can browse the web as well as consume multimedia.

The schisms on the levels of desktop environment and distro used to confuse the hell out of me.

Now the dust settles. And I stick to Linux Mint with Cinnamon. KDE is just not my cup of tea. Neither is openSUSE.

I can find many extenuating circumstances every week. :-)

Ubiquitous is the inveterate slackness of myriad young people.

Can you be sure that everything in Android is on the up-and-up?

Whereas we can be sure about that in Linux and Windows.

I owe the education system of China a debt of gratitude, nevertheless.

It's noteworthy that the dropout rate of high school students is bleakly high in Quebec.

One third or so.

It appears that many people suppose Donald Trump's election to presidency will be an ominous one for both the U.S. and the world.

Mrs. Hillary Clinton has had her revealing imbroglios.

Who on earth can trust her?

Barely 21 years had passed since the end of WWI, and then WWII started.

So the Armistice Day hadn't have much use to pacify peoples and countries. Or, people just remembered the dead, but they forgot the cruelty of war inflicted on the whole world.

I. X. messed up real good.

Leçon Un. À la page six.

The GUI is just an appendage of the OS, not the OS itself.

The problem is, people tend to be addicted to some particular GUI, for better or for worse. That is the GUI of macOS, my friend.

Every real man stays mostly unflappable while being tested by life.

And he may discover that everything is meaningless.
