I haven't been around much the last couple weeks anyways, but on Thursday my father had a stroke. I've been at the hospital for the last 2 days. Haven't really had any time to be here. Hopefully soon everything will be back to normal...

I am about to go back to the hospital soon, so I will go into further details when I get a chance.

Everything is still the same. His condition hasn't changed at all.

Basically, he had a stroke that effected one nerve. He lost the ability to swallow (water, food, saliva, anything) and has trouble with his voice. But he can still talk. Everything else right now seems normal.

They moved him out of the ICU last night and into a private room.

The same thing happened to my grandmother, she had a stroke (ended up being the 3rd time she had one) and she lost the ability to swallow and speak.

Hopefully your father gets better man, unfortunately my grandmother never did :cry:

All the best man, best thing you can do is be there for him and keep his spirits up.

That sounds terrible. My great-grandmother had a stroke, unfortunately, she died a year later (just in May). So, I (kind of, because I wasn't very close to my great-grandmother) understand what you're going through. My grandfather, who is my favorite member of the family (we are exactly alike), also has heart disease, and he seems to be doing okay (he just can't do some things physically), but his potential of dying worries me very much.

Hopefully the second situation (with my grandfather) will pass on to you, and he will be fine.

      It's funny that iPhone users think they are getting feature, where in fact they are getting cosmetics that just do iteration circles of "improvement" of the said cosmetics. Apple just doesn't know what to do with this product anymore. There is no innovation on this areas anymore.

      You can disable the bloat on every browser. That's not the point. I will never use a browser of a shady company. I don't trust them at all. I can still find adblocking solutions than having to rely on a browser from a shady company.

    • Alpine Linux 3.24 released with support for COSMIC Desktop and other improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Alpine Linux 3.24 released with support for COSMIC Desktop and other improvements by David Uzondu Alpine Linux 3.24 has been released with updated system packages, including Linux kernel 6.18 and Rust 1.96. The team also added IPv6 support to the system installer, and they introduced automatic serial console configuration for headless setups. System76's COSMIC desktop environment is now available in the community repo. System76 originally started building this DE because its developers found GNOME to be pretty limited. Plus, it did not help that with virtually every GNOME update, the changes broke System76's custom desktop extensions. As for system packages, the Alpine team moved GTK+ 3.0 from the main repository to the community repository due to its legacy status. py3-setuptools has been upgraded to version 82.0.0, while the old pkg_resources module has been completely dropped. The team also removed outdated packages that still relied on py3-six and GTK+ 2.0. In addition to that, libsoup 2 has been removed because the library was affected by multiple security vulnerabilities. If you're a GRUB user, the Alpine Team said that you must manually run the grub-install command with your specific device or EFI options right after upgrading your system, otherwise, your computer may fail to boot properly with the newly updated GRUB 2.14 bootloader. New installations of Alpine Linux now offer an optional path to a /usr-merged directory layout if you set the BOOTSTRAP_USR_MERGED environment variable to 1 before you execute the setup-disk command. If you already run an older installation, you can migrate manually by installing the merge-usr package and executing its binary as the root user. The team recommends this layout to align Alpine with modern Linux standards, though you should verify your custom scripts before making the switch. Alpine Linux is a pretty tiny (~5MB) Linux distro built around musl libc, BusyBox, and OpenRC. It's been around since 2005, comes with its own package manager called Alpine Package Keeper (APK), and is widely used in modern cloud computing and software deployment.
