What Are You Doing Right Now

Getting groceries now.
-
Drinking coffee, and completely a few last minute restores.
Also smacking myself in the head for forgetting my glasses.

At least you won't break your glasses

There is that. . . .

Back home. The wife leaves for Catania in four hours. Then she is off to Rome, London and finally Orlando.

Before lasik, this would have meant a trip back home for me.

@Dashrender My glasses are just expensive cheaters. My vision is clear, just my eyes get tired.
I can read text and everything else fine. But the zoom makes it a bit easier.

Removing old files from Ubuntu because I'm out of space, and even the apt-get autoclean and apt-get autoremove will not work due to an out of space error.

Common story. There have been threads on that this past week. Welcome to Ubuntu.

About to walk Dominica down to the bus in half an hour.

Safe trip @Dominica

Yeah, It's happened twice now in the past month to me. Number 1 was a plex install on Ubuntu, and this time, my XO VM. It's all fixed up now. I needed to remove space, because I couldn't even issue an lvextend command due to the out of space error.
-
OS repair on a laptop. Getting my ducks in a row to dive into CentOS installation this week.... there will be many questions.
-
Dominica has been dropped off and is on the bus to Catania now.

Safe travels

Didn't take long to run through the BMS units I ordered... BMS: Battery Management System (board). I had ordered two each of the 3s and 4s.. So time to think about the next set of each,.. and maybe added a 5s board in the mix to see about replacing the batteries in an 18v Black and Decker battery...

liking the iMax B5AC charger and that it connects to the computer.

Oh great.... user neglected to tell me his laptop hit the ground pretty hard. I found a big dent when I was taking out the hard drive (because the OS is boned and he needs his non-backed up data). He will be taking data home today but no laptop.

Dominica is at the airport in Catania.

ouch - hmm seems to be that becomes a 'let it sit and percolate' while connected to another computer to recover the data'... no getting it back today.
Similar but not the same, had someone tell me how great a battery was, and it looked great, other products from the guy were awesome,.. so much so you could pretty much drive a truck over them
But then I saw a video of the battery - basically the one I'm building - and it failed bad. But when the user broke down the battery, it was clear to me that he or someone that had touched it after he had used it for 11 hours had dropped it. The 3D printed case was cracked in no more than 3 places. Once he got to the actual batteries (LiPo) you could see that two of the three packs had the corners crushed.
LiPo batteries are great,.. lighter and all that, but they lack psychical protection,... so of course it failed. Is it the Maker's fault? Only so much as it was a 3D printed case.
You drop it,... it's Your fault. Don't expect me to replace or repair it for free or in any sort of hurry....

That computer connection does make for some nice graphics. I've got a more general purpose one.
