A few technical changes
A few things have happened on my current server setup. The biggest one was my move from FreeBSD to Ubuntu. I do not have complains about FreeBSD — how could I? — but I wanted to play with more recent stuff, and it was becoming very hard to do under BSD. I also wanted a refresh, since I had been running that VPS for a while and it was starting to feel “dirty.”
So, I spawned up an [Ubuntu 16.04 LTS](http://releases.ubuntu … ⌘ Read more

The century is 16, rebellious and heavily into bodymods. Comes into my studio drunk, waves a bit of winter. “Just graft me that wherever!”
It’s probably a little bit slower now, but i’ll add a option to increase the workers. 16 seems to work nicely here.
Dumping dollars left and right
“DOD charged the American taxpayer $43 million for what is likely the world’s most expensive gas station.”
That’s what Special Inspector General John F. Sopko found when he looked at the construction of a natural gas station in Sheberghan, Afghanistan.
According to the report, at most that station should have cost about $500,000. But in this case, the Department of Defense’s Task Force for … ⌘ Read more
Walking and using the phone
Walking around with your head stuck on the phone is like playing the chicken game. The fully aware pedestrian walking in your opposite direction—and on the same path—is forced to play the game. Not as dangerous as driving but still very annoying. When you walk, please pay attention, look where you are walking, and leave the phone in your pocket. ⌘ Read more
AP classes
Yesterday (15 October) Kent told me he doesn’t want to take AP (Advanced Placement) classes next year. He also told me he might not want to be a neurological surgeon after all, and that he really doesn’t know what he will want to be, professionally. We talked more, but the rest of it has no place in here.

With all the problems we are having with over population, do we want to pursue the holy grail, and extend life to last hundreds?
