Fake Friday? Already?

Busy lately, been working / watching server software upgrades which are slow going, but bring a new optimized version of cPanel which should reduce memory usage quite a bit, aI was bumped from my church’s website project, due to ASP.NET/C# programming, but such is life I suppose, if only it were 6 months down the line when I had a production Windows server online - but sadly the Church site is moving forward sooner than that, but I don’t want to rush it thus I miss out on getting to host them like I had talked with the pastor about so bummed about that - but aside from some minor sad news with that, things are going somewhat smoothly.

New hours at work, not exactly what I wished for, but 8:30-5:30 is a step in the right direction, was hoping for 9-6 so I’d have an hour free and clear to do things like drop the network offline, but now I just have 30 minutes to fiddle - but at least it’s something better than using my weekend for doing work at the office, and leaves time for things like Sleep, Family, Friends, and my own business.

OS Front at work, I ditched my failing XP install, instead of killing it entirely I virtualized it and it’s running on the backup server leaving my primary workstation to become a Linux box, which is handy and keeps folks off it when I am not here, already had someone say “What’s up with your computer?” not sure why they were on it in the first place, but none the less they are confused now, I tried Ubuntu first, it was handy, detected all my hardware without issue, but I wanted each monitor to be a separate screen, with no support from the Ubuntu Forums on my post, I tried Fedora, but it was lacking support for my laser printer, and just felt a little laggy, so I just finished re-installing the latest Ubuntu.

Anywhoo - my day is nearly done, just wanted to post an update on things, going to go check out more of the latest cPanel release, and start the server doing a scan disk and a fresh reboot, ah the joys of file servers which are oddly setup. Night folks! Happy Fake Friday!
