Finally I understand the rather nonintuitive "profile" system in the Red Hat
Linux (as used in Yellow Dog Linux for Macintosh hardware) network stuff.
Turns out you make have to make many copies of each device and the profile
switching only chooses which ones are active.

Re #521: Is that how it's supposed to work? That seems kind of screwy.
I've had problems because I have both a wired network card and a
wireless card. I don't (and physically can't) insert them both at once.
RedHat wants to call them both eth0 and gets confused.

Hmm... on one of the device pages it kept putting the wireless card back to
eth0, when it should be eth1. Still haven't figured out what the screen is
trying to accomplish, but anyway it works for me regardless.

Got some very important things done today, and found a major
error in stuff at work (not mine).

I've been taking reasonable long bike rides (maybe an hour, at fast speeds
and on hills) lately - maybe I need to find that old bike computer just to
see what kind of mileage I'm getting. I'm definitely stronger than I was back
in the spring.

I used to have a bike computer, but it broke. These days I just throw my
GPS unit into my rack bag.

Bike computers are pretty cheap, though.

They are, but I already had the GPS. And I'm not so interested in my
speed while I'm riding as I am the distance I travelled and my average
speed when I'm done.

IAHB I drove State Street from Washington to South U this afternoon. I wanted
to drive North U to State Street, but I didn't have the time to go that far
out of my way.

Not happy so much as amused, but I got my first bounce message
from a SoBig today. Gee, what would the Internet be without
Microsoft, to be the bad example for us all? ;-)

Went to the in-laws fam reunion today-- went a little better than I
thought. No swimming after all (it was too cold for the beach and the
heated pool cost about $4), food was marginal, but the people were
pretty cool and easy to warm up to. I'm rather reserved, and deep
down, I'm still rather shy, so I wasn't looking forward to being
introduced to a lot of strange people... especially as my wife has had
a habit of abruptly doing so. (She's not terribly shy.)

My kneecap got an affectionate hug from a very young, little girl who
recognized that I am Santa Claus. Her father was grateful that I played the
part for her.
She's a good girl, of course, and she will get lots of presents.

Took the poor bike light apart, and found that all its little
spring contacts had been bent out of shape by the impact and
weren't letting juice flow. Bent them back and it worked!
The dings add character. ;-)
Got some proper chain lube and it really made a difference too.
Was tossing out the trash tonight and found a nearly-new set of
off-road mountain bike tires in the dumpster. The mold lines
were still visible! I can't believe what my neighbors pitch.
They were the same type I used to have before, so I snagged 'em.
At least my neighbors are recycling. Maybe it was the bottled
water everyone was drinking, but I see overflowing recycle bins
where they used to be empty. This is a good thing.

Re #543: Good for you. I've always been of the opinion that a broken
item that's been creatively patched has more class than a new one. ;>
