3. “a defendant can only be penalized after he has received fair notice of the conditions of community supervision. Thus, for example, appellant could not be penalized for possession of sexually explicit material if he is not fairly informed of what constitutes sexually explicit material. The supervision officer’s discretion in implementing the details of appellant’s supervision does not in and of itself make the complained-of conditions vague.”
