I have an alarm clock that actually wakes me up now. For the first time since way back when I was at college, around 2002.
It’s not that I’ve not had alarm clocks, it’s just that they’ve never woken me.

Dear Lazyweb,
What are the positive and negative points of implementing SPF in a virtual hosting environment?

Letting your root filesystem get to 100% capacity is not good.
Seeing half-completed loglines in /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog just freaked me the hell out until I realised what was going on.
I need sleep. I’ve been up since Saturday. I can’t sleep now because I’ll sleep ALL day, and probably all night. I have lectures today, and I have work this evening. Mrrr.
