Kernel Panic
Oct. 11th, 2004 03:07 pmMy one time best friend Guthrie "gUe" "In a Pear Tree" Partridge thought that it was pretty funny when my Linux box at the time (Either Figment or Pacific the First, I forget which) crashed and said "Kernel Panic." Now, it wasn't a big deal, it wasn't like I had some critical application running, since the computer was just booting and couldn't find the root partition where it expected to find it. I forget how, but I fixed it. So when I say I don't understand why it is funny, it's not because I've been blinded by techno rage because my computer refuses to work. I just don't know why "Kernel Panic" should be so funny. "What's a matter Kernel Sanders... Chicken?" - now that is funny. Someone please enlighten me. gUe doesn't talk to me anymore (at least not politely) so I can't ask him.
Driving to lunch today I see that the leaves are beginning to change in earnest. There are spots where it looks rather breathtaking, I should have brought one of my many cameras to document it a little bit. Hopefully I will find the time to do it before everything DIES and makes New York look like a miserable dead land of Ice.
Oh yes, and it turns out there is hope for me yet. The purveyors of wisdom at The Company decided not to do the sensible thing and allow me to put both of my commuters at work on the fast Ethernet/ius. Instead of becoming bitter and angry over it, I have decided to go about doing what they want me to do, which is move my web services from my computer to our organization's web server. I still think that it is The Wrong Thing To Do, but the more I think about it, the more I realize that it is actually not too bad a hardship for me to endure.
