Keen Blues (II)

Ok, hopefully this will fix things up. Super glued the shit out it on Thursday afternoon.
The first phase was to fix the problem on the "nose" of the sandal...
Will see how it goes, etc.

Keen Blues

Yeap... My Keen adventure continues..
|The brown ones are pretty much dead by now, those have been with me since late 2014 and I've been using them day in day out for all the summers since then.
So I've switched to another pair, the blue ones, that I have since 2014 too, but I haven't used them much.
Yesterday had to Super Glue a bit of the right one and it is gonna need another shot of Super Glue, probably tomorrow.

The Lone X201T

 Enjoying the whole table for herself.

Blue Thunder Saves My Ass

Last Saturday got a new seat and a seat post for Blue Thunder.
The original seat was sort of falling to pieces, also was a piece of real shit.
The seat post had to change it no matter what since the original one was bent beyond use (had to saw it off) a couple of weeks ago.

Quickie Field Repair

2021 started with a speedy fix for a pair sneakers I dearly love and that been with me something close to a decade.
As usual, will see how this goes and all of that... 

WhisperFan

Yesterday had to open the X201T, I wasn't hearing the fan at all and feared the worst...
Luckily it was working A Ok -turn it on while it was open, just to make sure-.
Looks like the fan is amazingly stealthy.

Went Full XFCE Desktop

 

And via "tasksel" no less... It installed about 400 packages and about a GB of hard disk space usage.
Then, after that, swapped the HDD from the Optiplex (a plain vanilla 2.5" 500GB HDD) to the Thinkpad X201T, in order to make that lappie my daily driver from now on.
And why did you swapped the HDD you say? Why didn't I just use the installation I did last week?
Because I'm moron and last week's install was 32 bits... What can I say? I'm MF moron...

You Know The Drill

 

At least, I guess that you do, so far in the game and all...
Will see how it goes, etc, etc, etc...

The Terror of MechaX60

Yesterday it was time to de-gunk the X60...
Unbelievable, but I had no time to spare to do this until today...
Removed the keyboard, cleaned it good, also the fan, and fixed a sticky key as well. 

The Current Debian Desktop

 

It has been a long time since I post my Debian desktop (or any other desktop) here on OE10...
Damn... Guess nothing changes much, except for the weather...

The Rat Race

Yeah... A Friday afternoon around here...
The glorious Optiflex along the lappie that my employer gave me.

Flat As Our World

 

It was something that it was bound to happen and it finally happened.
A flat tire for Blue Thunder... The rear one...
Luckily, thanks to CV19 bicycle usage is booming around here, so I found a place somehow nearby that patched it up in no time.

A New Hopefully Hope

About to start a new job (on Monday), so, my employer sent me this laptop.
An all aluminum HP Elitebook, pretty nice, only fuckshit is that the keyboard is "in Spanish".
Fuck this shit.

Wide Load

 

A not so good picture of Blue Thunder, taken Saturday afternoon, clearly loaded like a pig for the weekend with the saddle that the GF made for it, just about to explode with the crap I usually haul around.

Heavy Metal Thunder

Or something like that...
Blue Thunder got a new set of pedals, heavy metal pedals, dude!
And yes, "Pedal Failure Is Nominal"...

Pedal Failure Is Nominal (2)

Ok... Yup... As expected, the Crazy Glue thing went tits up...

Now come the t-wraps to the rescue! But, also looking for some new, possibly aluminum made pedals for my beloved Blue Thunder... Will see... How this goes...

Needless to say, I'm putting Blue Thunder under a lot of stress with all this CV19 thing.

Pedal Failure Is Nominal

(Almost) Busted a second set of pedals on Blue Thunder.

Yeah, well, I'm using it for at least, a 44 kms ride each week so... A bit of a burden on the system is to be expected.
Covered the shit out of it with crazy glue, will see how this goes, etc, etc.

X(60)treaming Tunes All Around

Happily chugging and streaming Spotify for the masses.

Took the HDD from the dying T60, slapped it into the X60 boot it and up & running we go!
Gotta love Debian, dude.

X Sexting

You know the drill...
Will see how it goes, etc, etc.

The Current Debian Desktop

It has been a while since I post a screenshot here.
This time, with some Adwaita love.
The combination of Debian, the Optiplex 755 and the Apple Cinema Display is simply amazing.
