Sunday Night Asado

A mighty cheeseburger, with the usual side toppings: carrots and a potato.
Yeap, on a Sunday night, imagine that...

Gettin' Ready

Out! Out! Out!
On a few days time, I'm out of here once again!!!

233K and counting!

Yeap, another thousand up... This week I have been listening to music like a bat out of hell...

Fucking Nose Dive!!!!!!!!!!

Now, this is the summer we all love!
Effing 10 degrees this morning, man! That is simply utterly glorious!

Google Riffraff Credentials

So, I guess this is what happens when the Google user, the credentials, are different than the ones needed on a website.

Saturday Night Pasta

Yes, pasta on a Saturday night.
For the first time on our summer, rain on a Saturday kills our plans for an asado...
So, if everything goes according to plan, we'll have to go with a Sunday Night Asado this time...

Re-enforcing The Back-plate of The Dell XPS M1330 (3)

Well, what I did the other day was a bit too much...
So, it was time to make things a little better...

Got an old busted Tupperware lid, slashed it with some pliers and a huge scissor, got rid of all the crap I've placed under the keyboard and replaced with this nice, clean pieces of plastic.

232K and counting!

Yeap, that's right, another thousand up on my own private scrobbleverse.

Worst Summer

This fucking piece of shit of summer is endless... Reached some really, really annoying highs.
This summer had some wonderful lows, but also the worst highs I can remember.

Movies During The Weekend

And another summer weekend with just one movie, or more like a TV series episode.

Star Trek: Discovery:
The newest episode this week, luckily it was better than the last one we watched last weekend.
I still haven't lost faith on this one.

Sunday Night Pasta

The Sunday classic, but, this time, without the world famous GF stew, just plain vanilla tomato sausage, along with boiled carrots and a lot of grilled cheese with ricotta raviolis.

231K and counting!

Yeah... On this fucking scorching day, another thousand up.
Yay!

Re-enforcing The Back-plate of The Dell XPS M1330 (2)

Yeap, but Ghetto Style, duders!
Another shot at getting the Dell's keyboard to not flex (at all)...
Will see how this thing goes... The lappie (of course) works A Ok after adding all that crap, in fact, I'm posting from it right now.

Keen To Be Stitched (Fuck Yeah!) (II)

Busted on Monday, fixed by Friday (by me, of course).
What can I say... That has to be some speedy service, right?
Second time I have to manually stitch these Keen sandals, a little bit over a year ago.

Heat Wave!!!!

We are bound to get royally fucked by summer, once again...

Saturday Night Asado

And right after the fire came the food! Crispy, magnificent food!
A wonderful cheeseburger with grilled bacon and carrots.
It was simply fantastic.

(Before) Saturday Night Asado

There was fire, a lot of fire...
And, after that, food, specially meat.

The Current Debian Desktop

Another Linux Desktop screenshot post, gonna try to be more consistent and post the current desktop more often, as a record of what I'm running.
A loving theme, at least IMIHO, flat and nice, Adapta, truly a favorite of mine, the Terminal theme is Nord, the icon set, of course, is Numix Circle.

230K and counting!

And, yes, another thousand up.
Nothing can stop the scrobbling, baby! Keep'em coming!

Lost The Left Side Now

And now the other side...
Monday night managed to bust the left side of the Keens.
Seems like another stitching session is in my immediate future.
Said this before, but I'm gonna wear these babies to the ground.

Movies During The Weekend

Another weekend, and another movie seen, or at least, some TV with the GF on Sunday night.
Heat was unbearable, just before the storm broke, so we watched a few things while we waited for the cold front to arrive.

Star Trek Discovery:
We watched this week episode on Netflix.
No, this season, at least so far, doesn't make it for me, too much melodrama for my taste.

Venom:
A total and complete meh.
Just another one of the bunch, if you haven't seeing it, skip it.

The Current Debian Desktop

A bit of Mint on my Debian setup.
LM 19 theme on XFCE Stretch setup.

Sunday Night Pasta

Classic pasta for a ultra scorching Sunday night.
Ricotta raviolis with the GF stew and smashed avocado.
Effing ultra delicious.

Fucking Nose Dive!!!

Amazing, glorious cold front!! Thank you!
It went from 34 to 12 degrees, this is summer the way it should always be!

Nano Tangerines (XV)

Still going strong, and green as dollars.
Obviously, summer is good for the little ones.

Fucking Scorching Sunday

Yesterday it was a fucking and hellish oven around here, God damn summer, die, MF, die!

Saturday Night Asado

A hunking piece of meat: bife de chorizo, along with some grilled carrots.

229K and counting!

Yeap, another thousand up.
Really close to the last one.

Movies During The Weekend

(Past weekend, that is)

Another weekend with movies! Yay! Or maybe, not movies, but TV series and a documentary.

Star Trek Discovery:

We watched the two available episodes, I found these two a bit boring, compared to the one we saw last week.

It is a drag when it gets too philosophical.

FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened

Cool doc about something I didn't even knew it happened... Of course, the GF knew everything about it, acutally, she knows everything about absolutely everything...

228K and counting!

I almost missed this one! What I was thinking???
Another thousand up, dudes & dudettes!

Sunday Night Pasta

The classic is back!
Ricotta raviolis drowned on the GF stew, boiled carrots and grilled cheese.
Excelsior!

Saturday Night Asado: Before & After

The Before:
Setting up (warming up :p ???) the fire for the asado, a big log enters the game, and steps into the fire.

And The After:
Nearly 24 hrs later, after cleaning up the remains, the log is still burning, or at least, smoking and with considerable heat emission.

At What Price Backups? (II)

A little update to this post At what price backups? (it's been 7 years man!!!)...
The thing is last week had a similar problem, but the solution posted there didn't help at all...
That means that issuing a:

sudo dmsetup remove udisks-luks-uuid-50508a07-7d38-4be4-975e-ee1d048c1cd6-uid1000

Did nothing at all, refused the umount the encrypted drive.
so What I had to do get rid of the hang volume was:

sudo lsof | grep xxx,x

And then issue a kill:

kill -9 xxx

Without sudo, it was my regular user the one executing what got hung, which incidentally, was the process that generates thumbnails in Thunar.

Saturday Night Asado

Once again, mighty asado with the GF on Saturday night!
For me a magnificent bife de chorizo with a twist of BBQ sausage, along carrots and a potato.
The GF went with asado de tira.

Nano Tangerines (XIV)

No update for the tangerine situation, as the GF was away.
So, here it goes, the little fuckers are strong as usual.

The Current Debian Desktop

The setup on the Optiplex as of today, it's been a while since I've posted a desktop screenshot here.
Numix glory all around!
I love how everything looks on the Apple Cinema Display!

Finally Chrome In

Today installed Chrome on my last "Firefox only" box...
Crap and annoyances pushed me to it, about 10 days ago, the web version of Spotify stopped working cold, every time I've tried accessing with Firefox, it belched a message that this version wasn't supported, blah, blah, blah... Like if it were 2003 or something... Complaints and more complaints about required versions not installed... Get the hell out of here!
And today it was with Netflix, so, well... Hello Chrome, baby!
Let's just hope this doesn't happen...

Summer Fucked Us (Again)

After the scorchingest day I can remember, another torrid, humid, totally effing crap of day.
This fucking summer took its time to ramp up but it finally fucked us hard.
