It is holiday time. After a few abortive efforts to actually leave school behind for a few weeks I have made it out, cleaned up most of the pre-Christmas jobs that needed doing around the house and taken some time beating seven bells out of the garden. It’s even a nice day today.
My bike blew it’s tire a week ago and pending a replacement I’ve been riding the scooter around. I have learned that a decent ride requiring a recharge every day is actually making the batteries work more effectively. A few days without riding or a long draining ride and they slow down again. My only slight concern now is that company I bought the thing off has gone very quiet and is not responding to any attempt to contact them. Usually not a good sign.
I rebuilt my little server a few days back after realising that Fedora Core was not going to update. It is now an Ubuntu server with a little web server running a music playlist and file storage. I was pretty stoked when I figured out how to SSH into it though to be honest I am loving the cut and paste help forums out there for Linux. I’m not always interested in how something works but I’m glad someone is and that they are willing to write about it.
Holiday time…
