Vault-OS MS-DOS 16 Bit -> Win32 Bit Working!!!

Essentially, Vault-OS needed to be seamless. Whether a program is running the PowerBasic DOS program, the VB-DOS Client or the Win32 C++ Builder front end, everything needed to communicate happily via two formats : DB4 database files and IPX messaging over an Ethernet connection. I own a copy of the BULLET database for PowerBasic and it writes DB4 compatible files, very quickly I might add. You can write out terabytes of food storage records in the time it takes MS-SQL server just to open a handle to a database. (I would never use MS-SQL, of course)

I think I've been faffing about with this for at least six years or more trying a lot of different approaches, usually with mixed results. :(

I tried a lot of stuff to wedge the 16 bit DB4 database files written by Vault-OS DOS into the Win32 system, including writing an NT service to copy them forward into an SQLLite database whenever the DB4 file has been written to.

Crap. Crap solution. Just doesn't have the elegance I was desperately seeking. I always felt kind of queasy, because I could not find a pass-through solution between shared databases in DB-IV compatible formats, in either 16 or 32 bit. This problem has been depressing me, actually.

Many of you who downloaded the CD Commander source code a couple years back probably noticed I was using SQLLite DB to store the files in. That was not going to happen. SQLLite is a totally proprietary format and not easily shared between different operating systems at all. I would never make that the universal database format.

Then I found the tool at the link above and compiled it into my Win-32 Vault-OS version. I was immediately able to surf from my Win NT Box to a connected MS-DOS box and open the database it was using to store all it's I2C sensors and data, as well as inventory and personnel records. Things like this make me pee my pants with excitement when they work out.

Once you've got the database handles shared freely and lockable across the network, the IPX common protocol was a snap. The inventory and other databases can be located on any machine, even scattered out on anything running, including the DOS client. Participants lock that file if they need to write to it.

I must have maybe a half dozen embedded x86 PCs that only have 2 megs or so of memory. These devices are intended to be dedicated to things like generator power and battery charging management - as a kind of cloud "service" to all participating devices they can see and share transparently. They are never going to be running anything more than MS-DOS, Powerbasic client and MS Lan Manager for DOS.

So that's good.

Of course, once all the data used by Vault-OS is in DB4 format, it's no longer "tethered" to the application. There are tons of abandonware applications that can be used to surf, repair, edit and modify these databases. In the event of a crash or a corruption (it can happen), you don't have to hang yourself in a Post-Apocalyptic funk. Instead you can get on your machine and have a look at the DBs, repair them, rebuild your box with any x86 device (let's say a radioactive ghoul tore it down and completely smashed it up) and go back to operations as usual. The important thing is that if you cannot get in touch with Texas Arcane following the bomb or magnetic reversal, it's not the end of the world. Your data is there in a generic enough format you don't need to get me in as a consultant to fix it for you or get support from me on the phone. Vault-OS is about independence, indestructibility and open standards. If the finished program doesn't require anything but some elbow grease to fix anywhere, anytime for the next 100 years, I will have succeeded beyond my wildest dreams. Even if Homunculus has me tied to the hood of his hot rod, I will be smiling thinking about all the Vault-OS systems out there running on forever.

I am working on the web site for Vault-OS. It looks pretty good, built on top of WordPress. Nice presentation. Should go public as soon as I can get it ready.

What Timing - The Apocalypse Trifecta

The Gulf Coast will never ... as in ... never ... recover from this oil spill. Ever.

Everything you have heard so far is lies ... a million gallons of oil a day are pouring into the Gulf Stream!

What we could use right now is a good old supervolcano eruption

Soon it will be time to break out the champagne and toast the finale of the most decadent civilization that has ever existed in world history that we know of. Ours. It won't be replaced by something better. It won't be replaced, period.

Derivatives + Coming World Economic Collapse

To get it in proper perspective, imagine this entire global financial crisis as a single damp firecracker popping.

Now imagine a similar failure in derivatives as the detonation of a 50 megaton Tsar Bomba over every major city on earth.

The effect will be the same.

If derivatives fail, that's basically the entire planet that will be busted broke.

Vault-Co Saw This 20+ Years Before It Happened In the 'Kwa

I'll let the video speak for itself.

Robert Welch foresaw this many decades ago. The John Birch Society was right. Everybody else was wrong.

I'm absolutely serious when I say it is far too late to do much of anything about this. It's sort of that moment for the sheeple that you have in a chess game when you realize you may not have been checkmated yet, but you cannot win. It's too late for the sheeple to do anything at all.

Two Fantastic New Articles From CONELRAD

A Short Vision from the Ed Sullivan Show. Apparently so frightening in that era that children who watched it had to see psychiatrists.

Extended history of the Fallout Sign

I wish CONELRAD was updated more frequently. The articles are usually classics.

This Is Like That Thing Vault-Co Was Talking About

They were always just biding their time until there were enough of them that they could organize themselves. Putting on a mask and pretending to be something they aren't, weren't and can never be.

It doesn't take much to fool the children of the Western world. Just like Adam and Eve with the serpent in the garden, they are naive and gullible.

They are only coming here for a better life, you see. It's so violent and insane and depraved and horrible back where they came from. Nobody seems to know why. They are just trying to get away from that back in their home and besides, most of them have no luggage. They are only carrying themselves. What's the worst that could happen?



We'll live by your law today, pinky. Tomorrow will be another story, on that day we'll live by our law ... which incidentally, is much simpler than your law. He who has the biggest machete makes the laws where we come from.

Vault-Co predicts you will see many, many similar movies with the same villains and themes coming out in the new Amerikwa. After all, there is now a large enough audience to support them.

The Truth Begins To Come Out

I am only posting this so I can mark the date and tell you in advance.

I understood Asperger's Autism correctly 16 years ago. I knew exactly what it was, what causes it and why it happens. I know what it means and why it is so important to human history.

I know a lot of things I can't talk about. Sometimes I have to wait decades for the rest of mankind to catch up. Some of the things sound so crazy I can't say them out loud, but if I wait ten or twenty years they eventually become comprehensible to others in the light of new information. I usually have to wait for an ordinary person to claim he has a new and original idea before I can then concede what I have thought previously about that subject for a long time.

I figured out a long time ago who I am and began to understand what happened to human genetics in the past 100,000 years.

Here's the short version :

Aspergers Autism has nothing to do with autism. Nothing at all.

Autism may have something to do with what triggers it's expression. Any insult to the human body or genetic damage at the right developmental age can have the exact same effect. The autism sometimes seen in combination with it is only incidental to the Asperger's itself.

Asperger's is something altogether different and it has nothing to do with brain damage, at least not in the sense it does with real autism.

Something happens to reset the existing genetic expression at the right developmental age that forces the human body to go into the legacy genes to rebuild and repair existing damage. For most children afflicted, it might be an allergic reaction to something in a vaccine. It is possible it could happen in a dramatic and radical fashion in response to something like a child being exposed to intravenal sodium lye between 18 months and 24 months of age. Sodium lye, commercial brand name also known as "Drano."

Here's the deal.

It gets the wrong set of genes for repairs.

Note I didn't say inferior genes. I said the wrong genes are retrieved in the rebuild.

These genes are not inferior at all.

Crater Day - Get Ready For Monday Impact

Hysterical sudden panic at the start of the "recovery"

Who was right? Everybody else or Vault-Co?

Europe is at the brink of a complete financial collapse. Full of foreigners and strange imports, they have picked a terrific time to go back to the Stone Age. It's going to be interesting to see how the natives sort this situation out. I think it's going to be like 28 Days Later on fast-forward.

Look for the crosscuts

It's funny.

Even in these carefully vetted, reviewed and sanitized photographs, I spotted a dozen pillars with the characteristic 45 degree angle cuts with melted edges that are only seen in a controlled demolition with thermite charges.

To be honest ... I'm bored with this subject.

For me, I just don't care any more what others think about it. It's not even a topic for me any longer. The whole planet could differ and it really wouldn't matter to me in the least.

I will say one thing.

Modern people are really, really, really stupid. Really stupid.

Stupid enough that part of you has to begin to wonder if maybe world government would be a good idea for critters like these.

Global government would be the worst failure in human history.

The question is ... are we talking about human beings any more?

Or domesticated animals?

I don't want you to think I'm a snob. I recognize the common humanity I share with others.

... but people this stupid, might they benefit from intelligent adult supervision? They are obviously incompetent to simply administrate their own lives. If they can't see this was a controlled demolition by now ... you have to consider if we are applying the word human with too broad a brush.

What rights are needed by battery hens? What constitutes governance of such creatures?
