A mistaken rm -r
and so disappeared half of my documents folder. Luckily i had lots of junk in the early letters, so only my backups and received files (folder name also started with “b”) are gone—and probably a bunch of files i will never miss (now i recall, probably all my never-used Photoshop brushes as well, but i have the raw downloads of those). So now my first way is to the phpMyAdmin of valerauko.net and backup my database. I really wouldn’t like it if my blog contents disappeared just how they already did once three years ago.
Also, tomorrow i’m going to “disappear” in the morning, because we’re heading for Tokyo. We, meaning a bunch of us living around this region west of the Biwa lake, Gifu, Nagoya, Hikone… The EEM provides me the cheap methods for travel, though of course it won’t be nowhere as fast as going by shinkansen.
My linux is complete as well. The only thing left is to change the minor details of appearance, such as menu font size and the like, to my tastes. The defaults are a bit too big, taking up too much of the not-so-big laptop screen. I started using all four desktop workplaces as well, the first being for browsing and such, the second for instant messengers, the third always has a sudo’d terminal open fullscreen and the torrent client is running in the fourth. I really will be going under Windows only for playing and browser testing.
