We've got a bunch of workarounds to try, still aren't sure exactly what changed the behavior, but suspect a hardware systems patch that *can't* be rolled back, (it doesn't even register in error logging, you just see symptoms ) but now we've got to come up with a whole new paradigm for operations, such that it will impact our hardware budget in drastic new ways (we're gonna need a whole lot more flavor b storage, which wasn't budgeted for) and it's all just very high level jesusfuckingchrist. And has big implications for JWST. And future development.
I got an apology for being treated dismissively back when I started raising alarms.
And the damn Tribble is still walkabout. Did I mention he needs surgery (perforated diaphragm, was probably hit by a car a long time ago) and shouldn't be allowed to exert himself much? And he DESTROYED the cushion on the cat shelf in a bid to break out the cat door and
climb down the deck?
Yeah, that. Sarah is less worried, he'd been outside and feral like that for a while before he moved in but I don't like cats going walkabout when I'm catsitting.
JFC, is Mahler always this long and tedious? Please send help. This concert will never end.
This outdoor concert, I should note. I'm not totally without couth, posting from a theater.
Yes, Mahler is often long. First year I sang in the chorus here, the women sang for about five minutes in the fifth movement of a Mahler symphony, and then the maestro made us stand through the whole sixth movement, which was about half an hour.
This piece started over an hour ago.
Oh thank god. The power of posting works again. It won't solve all the other things I'm pissy about, but I'll take it.
Y'all. If you need a little heartwarming, may I recommend the HBO doc Suited? It's about tailors who make suits for trans and genderqueer people, and it was just lovely.
Troubling Tribble finally came home. And was very hungry. Dumbass.
That sounds great, Jesse.
I should do something useful. But I had unexpected dental work done today, and as a result I've spent most of the day lazing around. Got my first milkshake in about 3 years (not really worth it), and then got takeout wonton soup and lo mein, because my teeth are still sore.
I'm an aunt again! My SIL had a little boy around 4AM. 8 lbs, which is big, and she is small, so I'm sure she's glad he's out. I'm not loving the name they picked, but hey, it's their kid. We'll get used to it.
