In the 8 days since starting to create a local repository, 39 gigabytes have been downloaded and it has reached the letter L in the largest repository universe.
It’s rough living with a slow internet connection. And mostly it’s because after …
LVM and Repositories
May 11, 2011As I mentioned, I’m setting up a local mirror of repositories — so that the fleet of Linux machines gets updates quickly and over Ethernet. For this, I attached a 100 GB disk to a virtual machine, and now a specially crafted script is downloading …
time allocation
May 11, 2011I don’t like Wednesdays.

Moving 2
May 10, 2011Recently I got my own domain: http://disfinder.com

A Book from Childhood
March 21, 2011When I was reading “The Boy with the Sword” I really wanted to hear those songs that the author includes in the text. And then, by chance, without even trying, link by link, I found an audiobook in which the author-narrator sang and played …
