Vacation

Entered: in vim on x201 | Date: 20210518

This Week

I took vacation time this week. Last weekend, I was the minister for my oldest daughter's wedding. It went well. This week I have decided to do not much. I have a project going installing an SSD and Gnu/Linux on a 2012 Mac Mini. The SSD is coming today. I made a promise to the friend that gave me the Mac Mini that I would smash the hard drive. Since it is going to be smashed anyways, I attempted to install Manjaro BSPWM edition on it since I had a USB drive already laying around. It did not go well. The install kept failing. Since I intend to plug this into my living room TV, I figured I'd make it user friendly and whatnot. So to that end, I am downloading the Ubuntu installation ISO. I think I'll hook up an external USB hard drive and put some movies and music on it since it's going to live in the front room.

Coming Up

Next week I'll be in Alabama installing some equipment. The week after I am moving my mother into my house. I am never around and she is getting older, so it just made sense. I get someone to look after the house and she gains a support system.
