This blog comes with some nice plug-ins like the Spam-blocker.
Only problem, it don't work.

Every day I have to delete over 30 spam comments, cause even the "automatically deleted after 7 days" don't work.
And maybe there isn't any real working possibility, since this damned forking AI is getting stronger and better by the second.

About that dangerous AI crap, I think, we have passed the point of no return

How long will it take from here to the moment, no human wanna see happen?
Still people think, AI is just a tool, AI is something useful, AI is something they can control.
 

It makes me sad and it scares me, that people are already so blinded and won't see the truth

All is packed and tomorrow I will go for my trip to Denmark.

This time the Huni Kuin will hold the zeremonie and I'm so excited. And nervous, and scared, and looking forward to.
In one word, that only in Norway exist.

Jeg gruglede meg  (Jeg = I  -and - meg = me)

To translate it at best would be: to look forward to something with a mix of dread and excited anticipation. 

Ok, now I found a plug-in for the plug-in to stop all these stupid Spam comments.
I wonder, if this really will stop the bots to post and save me a lot of work every day.

If these bots could and would read, I would make a special post for them, telling them, how useless it is to post, since I moderate the comment section.
And fact is, real humans, except very rare idiots, like 1 in a million, would post spam.

Well, I should see a result from this plu-in already by the end of the day. If I don't have any spam to delete, that would be amazing!

Today I decided to clean up my external harddrive and oh my, so much still to delete --- and with that finding stuff I was afraid, it was lost.
Disk drill did a good job, the only problem, every photo, every video, doesn't matter what kind of file, all are named file abc or file  123, I think you get the picture.
Videos, not only twice, but up to 4 times the same, no difference to photos.

Good thing is, I don't need to do that in a day and have all time in the world. And I have used many, many days, but with long breaks in between, weeks, sometimes months.
And I'm coming closer to the day, I'm done with it

Feels good to delete all the files, and even newer files, like photos taken in the last months. Taking a closer look and deleting all, that are not the way I wanted to have them.

Do you remeber the days, when we had normal cameras with a technicolor, to bring to the developer and then pick up the photos a week later?
One thought twice before pressing the button. 
And it was good that way!

Well, the digital world has its adavatages for sure. But to clean up the masses, oh my!

Only 1 km from my place is a house, my neighbor --- yes, this distance still count as neighborhood in Norway --- is living there.
Today we met for the first time ever, cause I left a note at his house, that I have to give away tons of books.

We had such a nice talk and so much in common. And we both were surprised, that we never met before. He is living here since 20 years, for me it's 13 years.
The world is so small and yet with distances so huge, that you won't meet your neighbor just 1000 meters away from you :D

He took with a box with books and one box with apples, a win-win situation for both of us

Thanks to a friend I installed a plugin today for my gallery.
He mentioned the video possibility and reminded me that way about the plug in I saw some days ago.
Well, the first one didn't work, just a bunch of error messages. The second one works just wonderful, only that I have to create thumbnails for any video, the function to get it automatically don't work. No biggie, I can live with that

And since I already had two pages in the gallery, I merged some albums, so all is now on one single page

My gallery

For sure I will remove one album more, maybe 2 and sort out some pictures, but for now I like it a lot more

And if I could find some real good smilies for my blog, that would be amazing!

A step, long overdue, but yesterday I made it

First a render, then the post and now I'm complete out of this insane "social media" game.
I'm talking about art and the different sides with galleries, where people can post their art.

One of those pages, renderosity, a 3d marked with forum(s) and gallerie(s) is one of them and I bid my adieu. And it was in time, so urgent in time.
I could feel the grumble in my stomach growing, never a good sign and acted corresponding.

This stupid competition of the people, for being on the first place in any kind of chart. Posting snap shots from all and everything, calling it art and photography.
No, it's not, it's just flooding a gallery with snap shots without any thought about light, point of view, colors or whatsoever.
Next problem is, that people, who have the Prime Membership can post ways more picture than other people and for every posted picture they get points. These points can be exchanged into money they can use in the store to buy new stuff.
Well, if they would save the money for the Prime they could buy more, a math no one seems to make.

I understand it, if someone has only little money, to get the possibility to buy a little bit from time to time. But still, these people still could at least try to make art, posting in an ART ! gallery.

Or the other category for 3d, oh for heavens sake.
One woman in different poses in skimpy wear with different backgrounds. Well, one can't discuss taste, luckliy to each of ones own. But flooding a gallery with this? 

And then there are people, posting since 20 years and more and I wonder, if they ever even tried to learn or just don't see it, or simply don't want to learn.
But those are fine, they post from time to time, still in hope to get any comment at all. Sadly they only get the crap "That's nice" which is no help at all to grow.
From time to time I tried and mentioned the mistakes and how to make it better, always kind, always friendly, never that they would feel offended. Never got a response, so I stopped, cause it showed me, they just didn't want to learn.
Cause others wrote "That's nice" and that was all, that counts.

You know, "it's nice" is the little kind sister of "it's crap".

I have the advantage of having my own side, my own forum, my own gallery. 
If I keep the forum, not so sure about, just two active members and one sent me a mail yesterday, that he need to take a step back. The other one posting from time to time, once in a week  and even less.
I think, I could end that as well and maybe make a new one, connected with my gallery.

Working downstairs with the huge living room. One wallpaper missing and on wall needs painting. Almost done and then I can start taking all from the room above into it.
With that done, 3 more rooms that can be renovated, closed and are ready Just one room upstairs left and that's only to clean 2 bathrooms and the kitchen and the complete floor upstairs will be fine.

The next part of the living room will be colored wallpapers, will save a lot of money and work. 
The last part, which is a room for itself, since we put a wall in, only needs a fix for the floor, the wood don't look good anymore.
Repair the broken glass from the fireplace and it will be ready too

Only the kitchen downstairs, so much work to do

13. August and I wonder, if I shall send some birthday wishes
67 years my dear, getting older :D

That was the most amazing weekend and experience EVER!

So many people and everyone was helping.
Except one side of the house, all is painted.
The old pillars in front of the door are gone and new ones are in place.
The sewer tank got some pipes --- and I was shocked to find out, that there never were any pipes at all.
The broken stairs down to the river GONE!
The little barbecue hut got a new painting too.

So much in just 2 days.

And honestly, I have really amazing neighbors. 
It was loud, the first party ended at 4 o'clock in the morning, the second one was until 6 o'clock in the morning and not one complain.

The people had so much fun, different kinds of music, so people were dancing in the garden and dancing the barn.
The relaxing room in the barn, so beautiful decorated by Silje and everyone who went in the took off the shoes. So much love and respect ♥

We had Poi performances, we had fire performances, it was magical, really magical.
People came we didn't even knew and when all was done and the party was over, everyone cleaned up.

It was a weekend of sharing, giving and taking and all filled with so much fun, laughter and love.

I'm thankful, more than any words could ever tell.
Thank you ♥ to each and everyone.
It was great, it was amazing, it was fantastic, I don't have enough word to say, how fabulous it was ♥

It took almost a year and my account at a specific side was opened again and I'm able to download all I've ever purchased there.

I'm saving all my render and deleting each and every single one (that will take time, over 100 render).
I sent a mail to the CEO, just being friendly and said thanks for the opening of my account.

And just right now I got a mail from him, welcoming me back at the side O_O

*err* what? No excuse, nothing at all, but welcoming me back.
Never ever!
When I'm done with saving I will delete my account for good!

Welcome back *pffffttttt*
