Sketchy Elf, who knew?
I was invited to the Kava Bar for Open Mic Night to watch some friends perform, and one of the patrons decided to do some urban sketching. Well, they decided to use my silly self as a subject and I'm Totally happy with the outcome. Not a bad likeness.
Always worth a laugh.
I sort of had a good reason this time.
Ok so running elfLand on a new server now. Because of the CentOS debacle, I'm switching to Alma Linux like pretty much everyone else.
So anyway, when I'm testing a new server build I generally move all of my crap over first to see what breaks. With BackDrop, NextCloud, WordPress, Matomo, and a few other things running on the nice new Apache/PHP/PHP-FPM/MariaDB/APCu it gets a workout.
My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.

@chadmccullough My recollection of Slackware was trying to not blow up my 15" Sony Trinitron while hammering on X11 to get it to work.
My primary desktop at the time was SCO Enterprise, and I despised Linux for the next half decade.

@mikebabcock Well, at least someone checked in this case.

Rec : "Can you do a PreScreening with our software agent?"
Elf : "You're fired. Don't bother to call me."
This has been a true story a few times this last year.
