schestowitz | I caused an outage with the toaster | Oct 21 17:53 |

schestowitz | Been such a crazy week | Oct 21 18:10 |
schestowitz | moving like a hundred VMs to kvm | Oct 21 18:11 |
schestowitz | and having lots of kernel panic today | Oct 21 18:11 |
schestowitz | but.. | Oct 21 18:11 |
schestowitz | vspherelicence expires today | Oct 21 18:11 |
schestowitz | So I need never again open a session of VNC to go into a Windows Server | Oct 21 18:11 |
schestowitz | Not even once a month (as before), so I'm happy | Oct 21 18:11 |
schestowitz | but the week has been so hectic | Oct 21 18:12 |
schestowitz | And I did extras shifts under loads of pressure | Oct 21 18:12 |
schestowitz | didn't blog much | Oct 21 18:12 |
abeNd-org | why did you have to use VNC to get to a windows server anyways? | Oct 21 18:32 |
*qu1j0t3 uses rdesktop | Oct 21 18:47 | |
*MinceR used to use both | Oct 21 18:48 | |
MinceR | (RDP lets the physical console remain locked while one uses it remotely while VNC handles antialiased fonts and such correctly) | Oct 21 18:49 |
MinceR | (well, as much as windows manages to handle antialiased font rendering at all, that is) | Oct 21 18:49 |

qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: it would be tough for me to trade TO for London | Oct 21 20:34 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: I'd only do it for the money I expect :D | Oct 21 20:34 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: or was he in Manchester? | Oct 21 20:34 |
schestowitz | both | Oct 21 20:35 |
schestowitz | But also, you grew up in Aussie | Oct 21 20:35 |
schestowitz | No idea why you left, I think it's doing quite well despite the sump | Oct 21 20:36 |

qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: ...! | Oct 21 20:48 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: also, on that score, as a polluter and despoiler, Canada's economy hasn't taken a huge hit | Oct 21 20:48 |
schestowitz | :-) | Oct 21 20:51 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: there's a particularly egregious - in fact, stunningly dishonest - misinformation campaign on bus shelters in Toronto now | Oct 21 20:51 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: re tar sands | Oct 21 20:52 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: meanwhile, many organisations are asking Canada to fix what is clearly an environmental catastrophe | Oct 21 20:52 |
schestowitz | what about China? | Oct 21 20:56 |
schestowitz | A lot of pollution comes from the producing nations | Oct 21 20:56 |
schestowitz | BTW, based on Wikipedia, in Canada Research Fellow is just one level below Lecturer or something like that. People who get promoted to Research Fellow are often in their late 30s, so I'm happy... becoming Research Fellow in my 20s, just months before my 30th :-) | Oct 21 20:58 |
qu1j0t3 | schestowitz: China is a catastrophe we can't even imagine. | Oct 21 20:59 |
