  • We usually do tex-mex style tacos with flour tortillas as a semi-lazy meal but depending on how lazy we’re feeling we may or may not warm the store bought tortillas. At some point we’ll have a night we go all out with homemade tortillas and all of the fixings for really devine tacos, but until then the fanciest we usually get is mixing our own seasoning and warming the tortillas

    But I can’t imagine doing a wrap in a warm tortilla. Sandwiches (which include wraps) must be cold in my mind. Probably an just autistic texture thing on my part but whatever















  • About a decade ago I was playing a game on Linux and the game crashed and took the entire DE with it. So I went to a different tty and started a fresh x desktop session and started playing again until the game crashed again (I was running a bunch of mods so it would crash every couple of hours or so) and still didn’t feel like rebooting so I went to yet another tty and started yet another x desktop session. I did this about 3 times in total before I finally went “I should probably actually reboot because this has to be making a bigger mess of things”



  • I was making after hours config changes on a pair of mostly-but-not-entirely redundant Cisco L3 switches which basically controlled the entire network at that location. While updating the running configs I mixed up which ssh session was which switch and accidentally gave both switches the same IP address, and before I noticed the error I copied the running config to the startup config.

    Due to other limitations and the fact that these changes were to fix DNS issues (and therefore I couldn’t rely on DNS to save me) I ended up keeping sshing in by IP until I got the right switch and trying to make the change before my session died due to dropped packets from the mucked up network situation I had created. That easily added a couple of hours of cleanup to the maintainence I was doing
