Starting to install windows...Yes, those are command lines with NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN being pasted into them. I had to resume some file copies, and I needed to say "N" for "no, don't overwrite the file", so that I wouldn't waste the time of re-copying files over my wifi. I was manually syncing up my dropbox over the LAN so it wouldn't download 50G over the internet. My connection had aborted, and I started the command over without the proper options. So I just pasted many many NNNNNNNNs at it. I do this a lot.
Also, the power supply has now been wired up. It's the cleanest-looking power supply wiring I've ever seen, due to a combinatoin of:
1) the case's holes that let you run wires behind everything, out of site. Never had a case like that.
2) The power supply's modularity, allowing 75% of the wires to not even be in my case or hooked up at all. Never had a power supply like that.

BACKSTORY: Building my new computer! We decided to name it Thailog. Thailog ("Goliath" spelled backwards) is the evil twin of Goliath from the cartoon Gargoyles. Carolyn's computer is named after Goliath, so it just makes sense that Clint's computer is the evil twin of Carolyn's± computer. A quick summary of the computer's specs is: Intel Core i7-5820K Haswell-E 6-Core 3.3GHz with an Arctic Freezer I30 cooler on a ASRock X99 WS EATX motherboard with 24G of Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR4 2400mHz RAM, a Radeon R9 270 video card, and a Crucial M500 240GB M.2 SSD...all inside a massive NZXT Phantom 820 case. It was a $1560 build, summarized on my blog at clintjcl.wordpress.com/2015/03/06/journal-hardware-purcha...
This Type-28a Gun House is positioned facing the Littleport railway station crossing and is part of the Command Line running from Littleport to King's Lynn along the line the River Great Ouse, section of the GHQ Line from Cambridgeshire to Peterborough.
The Type-28 is a Rectangular Shellproof Gun House designed to house either a 2pdr or 6pdr Hotchkiss Anti-Tank Gun. The smallest Type-28 Gun House was a Single Chamber design built to Shellproof standards with External Walls approximately 3ft 6in thick whilst the roof is 12in thick. Overall it approximately measures 20ft by 19ft and internally the Chamber measures 13ft by 12ft. At the front of the Type-28 Gun House is the low and wide Embrasure for the 2pdr or 6pdr Anti-Tank Gun. With the 2pdr Gun in position the shield of the gun would have covered most of the Embrasure, which measures 2ft 6in internally, stepping out to 3ft 2in by 11ft 6in on the outside, the maximum traverse of the 2pdr Gun is limited to a 60° sweep.
Getting the 2pdr Gun inside the Gun House was through a rear opening of 6ft wide, which would be closed in with sandbags as there were no doors fitted. The large unobstructed entrance did allow the 2pdr Gun to maintain it’s mobility, by allowing the Gun to be moved in and out rapidly. Below the Gun Embrasure are three recesses in the floor, the 2pdr Gun, would have been wheeled into position, then its wheels removed and the trail legs unfolded and located into the floor recesses. In cases were the Hotckiss Quick Fire Anti-Tank Gun was used a Pedestal with a nine bolt Holdfast was added to mount the Gun in a more permanent position adding sandbags around the Embrasure for added protection.
Normally each side wall has an Infantry Embrasure/Loophole to provide some limited protection from the enemy. However, the lack of all-round small arms fire meant that the Gun House would be very vulnerable to enemy attack. The lack of forward-firing Infantry Embrasures/Loopholes meant that it would not be possible to support the 2pdr Gun with small arms fire. So to overcome the problem of the limited Infantry fire support the FW3/28 Gun House design was modified to produce the FW3/28a. This modification consisted of a second Chamber being added to the Anti-Tank Gun Chamber, the second chamber was an Infantry Chamber with up to three Infantry Embrasures/Loopholes firing to the front, rear and side.
Generally, the Gun Houses were positioned to allow the gun to fire along fixed lines, such as enfilading an Anti-Tank Ditch or a bridge. In these positions the limited traverse of the gun creates no real disadvantage and the small size of the embrasure provides greater protection for the gun and its crew.

Located to the south of Jude's Ferry Bridge crossing of the River Lark, on the Eastern Command Corps stop line, is a standard Type 24 pillbox. The FW3/24 Type 24 pillbox is an irregular hexagonal, with five faces of 8ft in length externally and a rear face of 13ft with two rifle loopholes and an entrance 2ft wide. Those with thinner walls (up to 15ins) have rifle embrasures built in; the thicker-walled version (up to 24ins) has pre-formed embrasures designed to accommodate light machine guns (LMG’s).
A standard Type 24 pillbox, constructed on concrete raft, now around 20in above ground level due to peat shrinkage. Built to a smooth finish with chamfered roof edges (giving the appearance of being shellproof) and an internal brick anti-ricochet wall. The two rear wall loopholes are for rifle use to defend the rear. The small side and front embrasures are for Bren machine gun use. The overall condition looks very good, though not visited close up.

Positioned along track to Church Farm, this FW3/28 Type 28 anti-tank gun house is sited facing north to defend the river crossing at Jude's Ferry Bridge. The gun emplacement was fitted with a pedestal and nine-bolt holdfast for a 6-pounder anti-tank gun.

A Spigot Mortar pedestal, positioned on the west side of a Type 22 pillbox, south-west of Jude's Ferry Bridge on the bank of the River Lark. Inscribed into the wet concrete is ''Sgt. Rolfe''. The Spigot Mortar or ''Blacker Bombard'' was invented by Lieutenant-Colonel Blacker with the aim of providing cheap and easily produced weapon, after most of the British Army's heavy equipment had been lost at Dunkirk during the evacuation.
It fired a 20lb Fin-Stabilised High Explosive Mortar Bomb propelled by 'Black Powder' and had an effective range of 100 yards in its anti-tank role and up to 450 yards when firing a lighter anti-personnel bomb. It had one major drawback in that when the warhead hit its target, the fins would often fly backwards endangering the firing crew.
The Spigot Mortar was a weapon shunned by the Regular Army but was issued to the Home Guard in large numbers to protect bridges and other strategic locations. In its static defence role, the mortar was mounted on a stainless steel pin (''Pintle'') set into a substantial base of reinforced concrete (''Pedestal'') this was in turn set within a camouflaged weapons pit to offer some protection to the three man gun crew. A portable mount was also available, but weighed around 350lb and took three men to move it.

Positioned at the edge of a field and set into bank, east of the Holmes River, is a World War II Type 28a shellproof anti-tank gun emplacement.

With the 2pdr gun in position the shield of the gun would have covered most of the embrasure, which measures 2ft 6in internally, stepping out to 3ft 2in by 11ft 6in on the outside, the maximum traverse of the 2pdr gun was limited to a 60° sweep.
Getting the 2pdr gun inside the gun house was through a rear opening of 6ft wide, which would be closed in with sandbags as there were no doors fitted. The large unobstructed entrance did allow the 2pdr gun to maintain it’s mobility, by allowing the gun to be moved in and out rapidly. Below the gun embrasure are three recesses in the floor, the 2pdr gun, would have been wheeled into position, then its wheels removed and the trail legs unfolded and located into the floor recesses. In cases were the Hotckiss quick fire anti-tank gun was used a pedestal with a nine bolt holdfast was added to mount the gun, in a more permanent position adding sandbags around the embrasure for added protection.
Normally each side wall has an infantry embrasure, to provide some limited protection from the enemy. However, the lack of all-round small arms fire meant that the gun house would be very vulnerable to enemy attack. The lack of forward-firing Infantry embrasures meant that it would not be possible to support the 2pdr gun with small arms fire. So to overcome the problem of the limited infantry fire support the FW3/28 gun house design was modified to produce the FW3/28a. This modification consisted of a second chamber being added to the anti-tank gun chamber, the second chamber was an infantry chamber with up to three infantry embrasures, firing to the front, rear and side. Generally, the gun houses were positioned to allow the gun to fire along fixed lines, such as enfiladingss an anti-tank ditch or a bridge. In these positions the limited traverse of the gun creates no real disadvantage and the small size of the embrasure provides greater protection for the gun and its crew.

As it turns out cinepaint does really crappy down-scaling from HDR to LDR... enter the wonderful world of tone-mapping. There are several commandline tools for linux, and this GUI: theplaceofdeadroads.blogspot.com/2006/07/qpfstmo-hdr-tone...
This is using the fattal02 algorithm. Getting better now, but I have to try some more interesting scenes.
