Did pvsage pass away? Or is that just a RIP because he doesn't post here anymore?

You remember any of these guys: mobilediesel, dk75, Crinos512 ?
All of them.
dk75 wrote some of the best scripts/code; some amazing stuff.
dk75 stuff was awesome. That guy could write scripts in his sleep.
Nostalgia, I don't know what he/she contributed to conky configs. but I miss awebb in particular.
r.i.p. pvsage, xaos52. Rock me Dr. Zaius.
awebb was also fun to be around for sure.

You are not gone if you are remembered. My grandmother told me that.

That's the thing with online personas - one never really knows.
pvsage used to post a lot, then it just stopped at some point. Completely.
And I know of no other online place where a pvsage (or P.V. Sage) hangs out. They liked tvtropes.com, so maybe on their forums but I never checked.

^ Working with kids, I remembered pvsage's wisdom and introduced ponies. Friendship is Magic'n all that. Good stories, good messages for preschoolers.

No not true, there are some "conkystadores" out there that put me to shame.
I'm just a layout guy that likes and prefers some of the v1.9 advantages that v1.10 removes.

Good evening,
I hope my creation finds the eyes of Sector11 and Teo, and possibly do something outrageous to it haha
I say this because I've finnally tracked you guys to your home base looking for working weather & moon conkys awhile back,
signed up, and I've been watching in the forums for awhile now looking at some of the cool conky stuff ALL of you do when I get the chance.
Sector11 & Teo have inspired an idea in me a couple months ago and I set out to do it, did it, then went "hey... I can make it better..."
I got stuck, and came here because I was getting a little fancier than I was ready for but thanks to damo & unklar rescue services, I was able to complete my task and thus freeing up space in my head until I got it out..."lol, I was running out of brain space"
This spot on my conky monitor was originally for a moon script .conkyrc_4_Moon_S11_V2 but something in it was making the window act all goofy and just hadn't got to it to fix it, It works, I think it's just my desktop and need to make a few adjustments to the images positions.
OK, now that I've gotten the brown noseing out of the way LMAO
I switched to Archlinux as my everyday system saying GOODBYE to win garbage forever a couple years ago.
My system is however in a crossover from antergOS to endeavourOS, so some things running wierd but ok, but thanks to conky, this is how I notice things, I love stats, love conky...[trails off talking about needing 3rd monitor]
Anyway,
I'd like to introduce Conky-Sandwich_v3
With the help of unklar & damo, I've reached working version of the magnatude I was striving for....
Here is an excerpt from the readme....be sure to read the whole readme file!
What is Conky-Sandwich?
It is a useless creation designed to distract you LMAO
Well, originally it started with just pictures of delicious yummy sandwiches.
On different day of month it would get a picture of a sandwich.
I couldn't stop there so I figured if can get the image, why not the recipe,
or screenshot of a webpage with the recipe so you can look it up if it looks yummy enough.
Well that expanded into getting 4 yummy images every day of the month,
and then change the image every 15 Minutes.
It goes out and screenshots a webpage and saves it as an image file for conky to resize
and display it.
Here is a shot of my desktop with Conky-Sandwich_v1
Here is the video Of Conky-Sandwich_v3
Link to video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFydi0q … e=youtu.be
This post has been long enough, so I hope you all take my jests with stride, maybe it's the vodka idk LMAO
Here is the conky in my dropbox, I'll let you look, judge, tell me what you think.
although having showed the video to a few people the first thing they said was. "Does it show the whole/download recipe?"
The screenshot conversion tool will let you convert a site to pdf....so I was thinking download to a folder, or even email you the pdf?

--Conky-Sandwich - A Useless Creation by Mr Ed 2019
--A food window display for conky
--Using Archlinux-Antergos/EndeavourOS an in-between thing lol
--At this time Food network has,
--765 pages of sandwiches related recipes
--457 pages of burgers related recipes
--421 pages of pizza related recipes
--If there was 31 days in every month, conky-sandwich can display 372 yummy images
--4 per day every day of the month
requires install wkhtmltopdf for html to pdf and image, it's in the repo
