Nostalgia of the Mind

No go. The server is down. I repeat, the server is down. No go. More later.

EDIT: Sooooo, to make a long story short, decided to upgrade the RedHat 8.0 on the computer in my basement to the new Fedora 8 (its predecessor). Of course, after downloading it, burning it, and booting it up, it turned out the download was faulty (downloaded the full version ’cause the internet down stairs is SLOW. I just need to thread some ethernet cable in, but didn’t have time). Then I would have gotten the Fedora LiveCD, but turns out, as far as I could tell, that it doesn’t have an i386 version (which my computer needs). Therefore, I switched to the OpenSUSE LiveCD (670MB versus 3.2GB, hmmmmm). This time I checked the SHA1 key, and it checked out. Of course, I burned it, and it crashed, and turns out the burn had failed for some reason (Windows fucking sucks). Sooooooo, I started redownloading Fedora 8 (Fedora 9 is too far away to wait), and by this point it was like 9PM. I decided just to let it be, and did some other stuff and went to bed (this was Sunday night).

So, I wake up, and in the five minutes before school, I check it out… Apparently, DownThemAll! downloaded it twice; the first time the key didn’t go through (thank god for auto-download). The second time checked, but I had to go. Therefore, the server won’t be going up this weekend, or even today (Monday), because I’m stuck at my technophobic grandmother’s house, setting up their new laptop. It took maybe five minutes, but I’m spending forty-five minutes to browse the web and type this post X) (shhhh). I have to go set-up their new printer now (lucky me), but since they bought me my new Zune (2G 80GB), I have to do it.
