Half past 10, and allll's crap

Well, 11:00pm, but who's counting?
Just finished up some work catch-up. In my infinite wisdom I spent a day in Prince George. Though not technically 'working', I wasn't technically off either.
That, naturally, set me back by a few days.

Ho hum. Completed a new qmail build with a half-dozen patches. Partly to get some spam controls and antivirus stuff in place before it becomes an issue, as opposed to having to start dealing with it when the inevitable spam hitting my inbox becomes a flood.

Thallid's rapidly becoming outgrown. Partly because of the number of VM's I want to run on it, but mostly because of the memory leak I'm too stubborn to reboot the server to clean up.

---e@thallid:~> top -n1 |grep total

Granted an uptime of 633 days is pretty measly, but it was inadvertently reset when a backup power cut went horribly wrong. That and for a bog standard Linux instal running FluxBox as a WM and right now a single VM with 512MB of ram allocated to it just to keep it afloat, that's bloody terrible. Ahwell... whatever.

I was totally going to rant about how stupid the Winter Olympic games are in what effect they've had on society in the area, but as I was only inconvenienced for two hours overall, I really can't complain now, can I?

Oh, new image, my RudolphXP sketch cleaned up sortof.
