And now, I really know what it is to have no time.

New toys. Hmm, shiny...

By thunderbee (Mon Jul 04, 2005 at 01:05:40 AM EST) (all tags)

So, I finally made enough money to get me a new laptop, and a new phone as well as the old one didn't do bluetooth.

So I got a powerbook - it's my first Apple since my Apple ][.

Machines have a mind of their own

By thunderbee (Mon Dec 13, 2004 at 11:00:35 AM EST) (all tags)

My old server was slowly dying, so I bought a new one, and took the opportunity to do a clean reinstall.
I was supposed to run full tests this evening, and switch the two machines at the colo tomorrow evening.

But no, the old server wouldn't have it this way.

I built a 1 TB array yesterday

By thunderbee (Thu Nov 04, 2004 at 04:15:24 AM EST) (all tags)

Something to brighten up the week heh.

I've wanted to do this for some time, but finally, lack of space on my current array and the imminent need for a lot of disk space led me to do it: a 1 Terabyte SATA software RAID array. (pxincluded)

There is something to be learned from a rainstorm

By thunderbee (Tue Sep 28, 2004 at 11:28:32 AM EST) (all tags)

When meeting with a sudden shower, you try not to get wet and run quickly along the road. But doing such things as passing under the eaves of houses, you still get wet. When you are resolved from the beginning, you will not be perplexed, though you still get the same soaking.
This understanding extends to everything.

I'm off for a two weeks vacation

By thunderbee (Thu Aug 12, 2004 at 03:56:38 AM EST) (all tags)

I'll be doing a week of sailing, possibly more. Would a diary on sailing be of interest?

I'll tell you what's bad

By thunderbee (Thu Aug 05, 2004 at 04:28:29 AM EST) (all tags)

I created a company 8 years ago. First service, then went into the ISP business. Ran it alone for a couple of years, then hired a guy, then another one. We even had a secretary for a couple of years.

Done upgrading my mail server

By thunderbee (Wed Jul 07, 2004 at 09:32:24 AM EST) (all tags)

See, my company had a nifty, open-source based mail system. 18 month ago it was cutting edge. And of course I ran it on my own server.

How do you avoid meatspace attention to your diaries?

By thunderbee (Wed Jun 09, 2004 at 11:23:00 PM EST) (all tags)

I was just wondering.
I guess I could make some interesting posts, but I'm not sure I want (OK, I'm quite sure I don't) some meatspace people to find out.
