Thinking Out Loud



"Thinking Out Loud"

When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

And, darling, I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And, baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well, me—I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

So honey now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

But, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
Thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

So, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are
Oh, baby, we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are

Back To Basics... Primary Colors

I remember in grade school that we were taught that red, yellow and blue were the primary colors. The one that was taught in school was the RYB model. It's actually a historical color model used in art and painting, even today. I admit, this was very easy to learn.

Reboot...

I have decided that "tech art twist" sounded kinda cheesy. So I'm rebranding this to something more appropriate for me: Confused Wondering Learner. It also sounds kind of like my other blog "Lost Wandering Drifter" since they're kind of related. This blog is for my thoughts for everytime I wonder. The other blog is for my steps wherever I may wander. Yes, I like my puns. I'm trying to be pun-ny. And that amuses me. I don't really care if that makes everyone laugh. The old posts will remain unedited.

(Tech) Shellshock Resistant BASH!

No, the title isn't some special move by some anime or videogame character. Anyone who uses GNU/Linux, Unix or Mac may have read about this already. Basically the command shell used by these OSes (usually BASH, or the Bourne Again SHell) has a bug that allows code to be executed before the actual script is called.

A simple way to find out if your computer's BASH got shellshocked.

As simple way to ind out if your command shell is affected is by running the code below:

 env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable to shellshock' bash -c 'echo Nope. Not today.'

If you're safe, you'd only see the prompt respond with "Nope. Not today."

However, if you see it respond "vulnerable to shellshock" it basically executed code that it wasn't supposed to execute. Your shell has the bug and you're vulnerable.

You're recommended to update and patch your BASH shell to correct this. Chances are, the people that support the OS you're using have already rolled out an update that addresses this bug.

To read more on shellshock, I'd recommend this simple article from engadget.


And no, you don't have to be a geek to address this either.


My thanks to Engadget for the shellshock information: www.engadget.com/2014/09/25/what-is-the-shellshock/

(Tech) Jaegertech - No, I Don't Mean Giant Robots

Wow legs... Why bother with wheels when you can walk anywhere?
When one says "Jaeger" these days folks might think "Those giant robots in the Pacific Rim movie." But no, it isn't. This is from one of the blogs I'm following in Blogger. At this point it's a concept-- But I think this would be cool and I won't be surprised if I see this in real life one day.

This guy, Alex Jaeger is quite the artist. He's not just some artist, he's one awesome dude that worked on several mainstream films. Chances are you probably seen some of his work without knowing it. My focus on this entry, however, is Jaegertech - it showcases concepts of legged vehicles. Notice how the paint scheme resemble modern day race cars. I think this would be a leap in ground transportation someday. It makes sense especially with terrain that's unpredictable. Sure, it's not as fast as any vehicle today but I think this would be more capable to tackle the worst of terrains more than any wheeled vehicle.
