Excitement
Jul. 10th, 2003 10:44 pmWell, I've now dyed my hair again (wait and see). I've also unplugged the reset switch from my computer having accidentally hit it with the keyboard for the third time in a week. It's strange, hadn't done it in months before that. Damned thing is a bastard in that getting the front panel off and back on again is a complete pig, plus it doesn't like being completely powered down. Must have been turned off and back on again a good 20 or more times before it actually bothered to boot. And we have no clue why. This is one of the reasons I just never turn it off. RJK now nagging me to upgrade to ext3 so I don't have to watch it fsck every time it crashes, but I can't be bothered and he has permission to be smug at me next time. Not that it takes all that long anyway, since I don't have vast swathes of disk.
