Microsurgery – a burnt finger – again<\/h2>\n

Different finger this time. It was on my left index finger, on the outside close to the hand. Right now the burn is weeping a bit – but I am sure it will quickly heal. It was not a bad burn. I was performing microsurgery on some GPS trackers. The trackers needed some more wires added inside to reset them if they failed. I didn’t think I needed this circuit when I designed the units. I needed to add three more wires to an IC that is 1cm x 0.5cm. This is really fine work and I hate it. Still, it must be done. <\/p>\n

PC’s…<\/h2>\n

I really need to re-install all the software on this PC. There is SO much junk on it, and I need to clean things up. Part of the problem is that the last time I did a re-install it took about three days. Right now those are three days that I cannot afford. <\/p>\n

At some stage soon I need to get a new HDD for the other PC. When I do that I might put the HDD from this PC in that PC, and then put the new one in this PC. Then I can move the software across as needed. And do it without too much effort. <\/p>\n

I totally understand why companies use things such as Terminal Server and the like to reduce the time it takes to install software. It must cost businesses a heap of money. I even have a server here running a terminal server. This is great if I need to do something on my network when I am away from home. I can log into this machine over the internet and then do whatever I need to, as if I was at home. Like set up my home server to act as a private outgoing SMTP server so I dont need to worry about re-cofiguring email everywhere I go.<\/p>\n

Music:<\/h2>\n

I just heard Dido’s “Mary’s in India”, and I must say I love the lyrics. Dido has a great voice, and with these lyrics, the song is wonderful. I think my favourite song of hers is “This land is mine”. This is a real love song. It builds up medieval imagery in my mind at least, paralelling the middle ages with falling in love. Have a listen and tell me what you think.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
