![]() The temple strives to present both education and clarification on the beliefs and practices associated with voodoo, in hopes of furthering enlightenment and dispelling misconceptions. Since establishing the Voodoo Spiritual Temple, Priestess Miriam has appeared in documentaries from all over the world. Some of her TV appearances include the BBC, NBC, Discovery, CBS, ABC, TeleMundo, Sci-Fi, MTV, and Entertainment Tonight. She has also been featured in articles in Spin, Playboy, The New York Times, and many more. Priestess Miriam's expertise in Voodoo resulted in a group of interested Russians to campaign for her assistance and wisdom. In 1999, she was recruited to the city of Rybinsk for three weeks to serve as Voodoo Ambassador for 14 Russians from all different ages and professions. ![]() She provided education and helped them start their own spiritual temple. I recently purchased a SanDisk 2TB Extreme PRO Portable External SSD. It came with security software which I installed without really thinking. ![]() It created a virtual CD Drive which has only read permissions used to unlock the drive before using it. I believe that because I switched the Drive Letters when I went into I switched the Drive Letter of the Virtual CD (originally D:) with the Drive Letter of the external SSD(originally F:) so that the external SSD would appear higher in file explorer.Īfter realizing it would require me to enter a password in every time my computer restarts I decided to try and uninstall the SanDisk unlocker. Setting > Apps and used that to uninstall the software it did not actually remove the unlocker. Currently, anytime I restart my computer I have to run a pointless exe file located on the virtual CD that does not require a password in order for me to have access to my drive.The lock file was created by process 1131 (packagekitd). It was created so that that process could make changes to the package system without worrying about other programs doing other changes at the same time. If you remove the lock file, you make it possible for another process, such as apt-get, to make changes simultaneously with packagekitd. Since there was no lock file, apt-get will also assume it is the only process making changes. The result can be that some of the changes made by one process can be overwritten by the other. The end result will be some random mixture of the two change sets, which might result in a broken system. It is possible to write programs so that they can work at the same time without stepping on each others toes, but it is difficult and can give some really obscure bugs. The authors of this package system decided it was better to just make a global lock file. This is simple and robust, but not very friendly to multi-taskers. Now, all this assumes that packagekitd is still running and doing things. If this process has in fact crashed without removing the lock file, the situation is different. This might have left the system in a "halfway" state, but the package system is designed to detect and recover from that. Rebooting is a very heavy-handed way of making sure that packagekitd is not running anymore. During boot old lock files will be deleted since they can no longer be relevant. If you are 100% sure the process has crashed, you can remove the lock file without rebooting. ![]() Use psto check if process 1131 is still around. If you are fairly certain the process is stuck somehow and will never end, you can kill it safely. If you think it might be working as intended but just at an inconvenient time it is best to just wait until it is finished. If this is not possible, you can still kill it safely. Never just remove a lock unless you are sure it is stale. ![]() Some locks are tied to running processes and will disappear when the process exits. Other kinds of locks are maintained manually and can get left behind (go stale) if the process crashes. I believe this particular lock is in the former category and so it shouldn't be able to go stale. If it's locked, there is something actively holding it and it shouldn't just be removed. If you look at the error carefully, you will see which process it is, packagekitd, and it's PID is 1131. You can see this pid by running ps u -pid 1131. ![]()
