lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Sunday, 16-Feb-2020 20:54:44 EST lnxw48a1 #sonTwo says I should not watch a Disney movie called Togo. He says I’d cry. -
Nobody [Linux Walt Alt (@lnxw37a2)] (lnxw37a2@pleroma.soykaf.com)'s status on Monday, 03-Feb-2020 15:31:38 EST Nobody [Linux Walt Alt (@lnxw37a2)] People talking about video stores reminds me that I never even owned a VCR until 2002. My ex and #sonTwo bought me a VHS player / NTSC TV combo unit and an external DVD player to connect to it. -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Sunday, 17-Nov-2019 13:16:10 EST lnxw48a1 @geniusmusing You might say I'm the one that is nuts for buying these used servers when I'm gone so often. But #sonOne got his first one for $99, and before I knew it, I'd found five more for the same price*. I was going to ship one to @amic, but it would have cost more to ship than I paid for it (including shipping) to begin with.
* #sonTwo bought one for me as a present, expecting me to come pick it up. Instead, he's now set it up in his own 12U rack. -
Nobody (Linux Walt ALT) (lnxw37d2@nulled.red)'s status on Saturday, 16-Nov-2019 00:30:13 EST Nobody (Linux Walt ALT) I have no budget for this yet, but the 30 year old (#Daddy_A) is going to receive https://www.amazon.com/Newest-Dell-PowerEdge-Server-E3-1225/dp/B0722J7NNX or similar.
Meanwhile, #sonTwo now has two old Dell servers and a rack. He’s been told to download a trial of #VMWare ESXi, as that’s what the company uses.

lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 11-Nov-2019 22:38:50 EST lnxw48a1 #sonTwo told me tonight that a co-worker passed away about 10 days after contracting (or finding out he had) some rare disease that mostly affects Blacks. He didn't know what it was called, so I've been trawling through links like https://nu.federati.net/url/251588 [zimeye\.net] trying to find out what it could have been.
He doesn't think it was contagious. -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 11-Nov-2019 18:13:19 EST lnxw48a1 Found a #MacGrill near #Sac. This chain used to be a favorite place for me and #sonTwo. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Sunday, 10-Nov-2019 21:11:22 EST lnxw48a1 I just had about 2 1/2 hours of (separate) videochats with #sonOne and #sonTwo (and #GD1 and #GD2). The little girls are a lot more animated and engaged on video than they are on regular phone calls.
I already videochat regularly with my 31 year old son (and his family) and my 8 year old granddaughter, so it was great to have her sister and her dad join in.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Sunday, 10-Nov-2019 15:14:59 EST lnxw48a1 All I have to say about #asparagus is this:
Every time and every way I’ve ever tried to eat asparagus, it always tastes awful. With one exception. #sonTwo cooked some asparagus on the BBQ one time. Whatever he did to it, it was delicious.
(I’m eating a microwave veggie meal with corn, carrots, asparagus.)In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Friday, 01-Nov-2019 12:11:15 EDT lnxw48a1 Started executing my part of the 'midwest assignment maneuver' ... noticed that the last time I was "home" for the holidays was 2014. I did see #sonOne and family during the 2015 and 2017 seasons.
.
The goal of this maneuver is to see both #sonOne and #sonTwo this year; my stated reason for ending this assignment is "spend holidays with family".In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Thursday, 31-Oct-2019 09:12:35 EDT lnxw48a1 Years ago, #sonTwo bought me a used server off #eBay. It got shipped to his home instead of mine, so it's still in the box, waiting for me to pick it up. In anticipation of a role change at work, he wants to set it up and practice. So now I'm ordering HDDs, cables, a UPS, a short rack, etc. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Wednesday, 30-Oct-2019 19:57:58 EDT lnxw48a1 #Daddy_A is glad that his weather radio arrived today. Meanwhile, at #sonTwo’s house, #GS3 really likes his new texture ball. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Tuesday, 29-Oct-2019 23:57:27 EDT lnxw48a1 I like* Chipotle, but I don't think I've eaten at one in 3-5 years.
* #sonTwo and my friend / co-worker Mark like it, so I've normally eaten there when I'm having lunch with one of them.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Tuesday, 29-Oct-2019 21:19:46 EDT lnxw48a1 I have an old server stored at #sonTwo’s house. He’s about to activate it so he can practice server & network administration. He hasn’t shown a lot of interest in #SysAdmin since he switched to Photography late in high school, so of course I was happy to give him control over it.

lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 28-Oct-2019 20:41:47 EDT lnxw48a1 This is interesting. I told #sonOne that I was considering a position with #sonTwo’s employer at almost a 50% pay cut. He replies with an opening at his employer for only a 25% cut.
They are 2.5 to 3 hours apart, and I want to see #GS3 nearly every day, so we’ll have to see.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 28-Oct-2019 17:55:44 EDT lnxw48a1 The only Kanye West album I ever bought was "College Dropout". I bought it for #sonTwo and later bought my own copy. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Sunday, 27-Oct-2019 23:19:58 EDT lnxw48a1 I refrained from telling him about his "no homework" stage (he was a little older by that time; I think 8th or 9th grade) or his brother, #sonTwo, who did his homework but did not turn it in.
"You did the same thing" is not helpful when he's trying to get his daughter back on track.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Thursday, 24-Oct-2019 19:42:11 EDT lnxw48a1 #sonTwo just gave me two job leads in SW #MO, including one at his $EMPLOYER.
@geniusmusing this might be the magic carpet that delivers me to a place where I can see my youngest grandson #GS3 on a daily basis.In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Sunday, 13-Oct-2019 22:25:02 EDT lnxw48a1 Rushed back from #Five_Guys so I would be here if my daughter-in-law calls, so I can say goodnight to #GS3 via videochat. #sonTwo and his wife are really good about making sure that he and I connect.

lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Thursday, 03-Oct-2019 22:42:56 EDT lnxw48a1 I’m really impressed with the pictures my daughter-in-law has been sending. #GS3 has his dad #sonTwo’s good looks. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink -
lnxw48a1 (lnxw48a1@nu.federati.net)'s status on Monday, 23-Sep-2019 16:30:22 EDT lnxw48a1 #sonTwo called to tell me his wife’s phone broke. I thought “there goes $500”, but then he told me that they sold their trailer home for a little more than they owed, so they’re paying for the phone. In conversation from nu.federati.net permalink
