Oh, right. Almost forgot: Happy new year or something positive like that.
Looking for an 1U rack server
Hey folks, I’m looking for a 1U rack mount server. Something old and cheap, preferably ;-) Somewhere along the lines of a 500Mhz machine, 256 MB memory, 40 to 80Gb HD. Nothing fancy; don’t need RAID or dual CPU/power sources. If you know anything, please contact me. Update: Just to clarify: This doesn’t have to […]
Bought a leatherman
Last friday, I bought a Leatherman multitool and, since it was quite expensive, I have to tell everybody about it. No better way than to abuse my log for such a goal, is there? I got me the Leatherman Charge Ti which has, like, a gazillion tools in it. I’m not sure I’ve already found […]
Uptime birthday
[todsah@sharky]~$ uptime 19:36:19 up 367 days, 8:41, 3 users, load average: 0.01, 0.01, 0.00 Whoohoo! My first longer-than-one-year uptime! And too think I haven’t really maintained my server for about that long. It did survive an upgrade to Debian v3.1 without rebooting.
Back from vacation
As you can make out from the post below, I’m back from vacation. Since we’d both been slacking off just before we actually went on vacation we hadn’t gone through the trouble of planning and making reservations for a trip of any kind. Initially we thought about going to Cuba, but that wasn’t do-able on […]
On vacation
I’ll be on vacation from today until the 15th of October (I think) and won’t be reading my e-mail nor will I be performing any other means of communicating. Catch you all later.
The big ‘spring’ cleaning
I’ve been busy lately. I’ve been very busy. I’ve been busy at my job, I’ve been busy with my own projects and I’ve been busy sorting out some things in my personal life. As such, some things that should, aren’t being taken care of: PROMS has been suffering from a bug which prohibits the sending […]
Productivity tip of the day: A Not-To-Do List
Via GeekPress Today is the day you start your project. Wake up. Make your coffee. Sit down. Get to work. Now, it should be that simple. Wake up and get to work. But there are many distractions. Mental and otherwise. So this is NOT a to-do list. This is a not-to-do list. You don’t need […]
Back from Lowlands
Four days of booze, pot and great music: the Lowlands 2005 music festival. I just got back and it was awesome. It took me only half an hour of shower-time to get all the gunk out my ears and dust out my nose. I’m not sure how many days it’ll take to get the alcohol […]
Uptime record
I’m no Operating System uptime geek, I really don’t care too much. But this is still pretty cool, my alltime record: [todsah@sharky]~$ uptime 12:36:59 up 256 days, 50 min, 3 users, load average: 1.75, 1.72, 1.24 If only I had a UPS.
