love when i can tell a hand-off has just been made; the ethernet interface's job is done, now is time for the CPU to do its duty

so now i'm sitting in my Comfy Chair in a completely different room, watching this update go, and also monitoring its vitals with btop in another pane because i fucking can. GOD I love it when I feel like I know what I'm doing

it took me more searching than i feel i should have had to do, but i found a guide to attempt the fedora 43 upgrade from a terminal, so i'm doing that over SSH right now.

turns out that, going by advice i was given by someone else last month, it *WAS* due to wine being installed (terminal was throwing "inferior architecture" warnings and aborting). removing wine-dxvk* with dnf and starting over seems to be progressing.

and as you can see from the vital statistics, Draugr is working as hard as it can

i previously attempted to upgrade from Fedora 42 to 43 on this computer, and found that upon reboot, it was still on Fedora 42.

nothing has really changed here but I'm gonna try it again for no reason.

one of those nights where it's difficult to fall asleep, there's only so much i can chase the unread message dots or do anything physical to wear down whatever's got me wired tonight.

i dunno, maybe there's some old fiction in my Dropbox i haven't read in a while.

it's pouring rain up here. nothing to do but listen to it.

11 PM. hardly anybody is talking in my spaces. there is nothing new to read. i haven't written much lately to reread and reflect on. it does just feel like the Internet has gone to bed, even if a lot of my contacts are only just waking up on the other side of the globe.

not sure how well known this already was, but i just stumbled upon an archive of super high-res 35mm photos of Newton and NeXT photos from the 90s, by photographer doug menuez. the vast majority are candid b+w snapshots of the newton and next teams as they grind through workdays and product launches
