"I don't think this server is working properly"

System load average is currently sitting at about 750. That's not a typo.

User mailing me on a weekend that he can't access his server after doing some 'experimenting' yeah tough fucking shit, mate.

I'm angry at my absentmindedness. It's nobody's fault but mine, but I'm sure anyone with kids and stuff in both hands can relate to the dangers of near total distraction.

I was just figuring out how to get a loss claim started when there was a knock on the door. A kindly Indian gentleman returned my phone and said I'd left it on the bench. I didn't get into the why's and wherefores of it being turned off (the phone warned an unauthorized reset had been attempted) but I'm glad I got it back. I assumed it was a goner.

I went through google's recovery wizard (leaving a screen message etc) and noted that the phone had been turned off. Not good. So I requested a remote erase.

Making note of this error before, I went again today to play with one of the cars with the boys. And I did exactly the same fucking thing again.

This time it wasn't there when I returned.

I realized my mistake the moment I got through the door, and ran straight back. It was where I left it.

A couple of days ago I took the kids to the tennis court to poodle around with one of the RC cars. I took my phone out of my back pocket (so as to not damage it when I sat down) and left it on the bench.

The entire process is characterized by sleight of hand and games. I cannot stand it.

Arrgh buying a house and I think we're going to have to pull out. I hate this game. Hate it.

Spearphishing mails impersonating my boss, they're getting clever.

Maybe not try it on a holiday weekend lads.

Another eternal September, coming to a fedi instance in your area.

The 'hopper shell is unlike most Tamiya kits in that it is hard ABS white plastic, which is deliberate as you can sticker it up and get pretty close to Box art, Without having to paing anything, in keeping with the entry-level nature of the kit.

I may get another shell off eBay as son no. 2 wants it in candy green.

I decided to paint the plain ABS body of my Tamiya Grasshopper. I let my son choose the colour. Of course it's fucking bubblegum pink.

This is a tune. Goes a lot of places. The last third is real rain on a tin roof territory.
