i'm living in 1999 again. wavelan is fine for irc/mail/web and occasional file transfers, but if you're using a DFS for real stuff it just can't bacon the sausage. so i went out and got a 10/100 switch and now i'm back on the wired web.
i'm editing this on the lustre mount on milano. since the LBUG yesterday was just caused by the symlink if i edit the file on the real path it's ok.
i almost spent countless hours debugging a crash in what i thought was either chroot or rsync. fortunately i remembered that i added a ulimit the other day to limit a process to only 15M in vsize.
i tried to get the radiohead single today, but newbury comics were out and the virgin never recieved their shipment. newbury was supposed to get more in this evening, so i might try again tomorrow.
i didn't get much done today, but what i did do was pretty ok. i had a post-bbq coma that i just couldn't snap out of. until i played some bf1492. i'm not very good at that game vs. other people on the internet, but i blame the fact that i never play the good levels online.
also, if you think the stuff in the matrix about people learning to "read" is lame then you haven't watched phik read lustre debug logs.
