And so the machine has to reside in the DMZ to have outside people access it…
\nBut you can’t use an insecure port, because people are picky about that…
\nThen you have to try and collate years of results into meaningful data…
\nVMWare? Why hast thou forsaken me?
\nHuh. So that’s what a Gomertz equation is…
\n“STOP BARKING AT THE SQUIRREL YOU STUPID DOG.”
\nNeed iced tea. Probably need something stronger, but I have limits…
\nThere was a stick of butter on the counter…
\nWhy is the Virtual Machine not even showing up like the other one? I mean, they’re in the same place, doing the same thing, but THIS thingawhatzit doesn’t match THAT thingawhatzit and google has failed me….
\nDid the dog eat the butter?
\nHow do you turn data into something of value?
\nI don’t see a wrapper…
\nGot the tea. Do we have cookies? No? Grumble.
\nThere’s Halloween candy.
\nAnd I’ve tried setting things from DHCP to manual routing, and nothing seems to work. I can’t even update packages, although ostensibly the machine says it’s connected…
\nThat package from where? Oh, yes. I’ll be here tonight.
\nDinner is… fajitas. We’re low on tortillas. We’ll have to make do and leave 1 for Jacob in the morning.
\nMust get more.
\nAnd probably more butter.
\nAnd dog food.
\nPreferably stuff that tastes like butter.
\nTo the dog.
\nI’m not trying it.
\nI’ve been working on this for pretty much all of two days, and I’ve made glacial progress. Glacial as in pre-anthrogenic global warming glacial.
\nCookie dough is in tomorrow. Oh frabjous joy.
\nDid the doorbell ring?
\nNo.
\nMaybe it was the dog plus butter.
\nBut will past work actually indicate some sort of change, especially since there are always new twists to every project? Do I need to put some sort of derivative meta-measure in to allow for future “progress”?
\nWHAT DO YOU MEAN THE OTHER ONE WAS A 32-BIT IMAGE. THERE IS NO 32-BIT IM… oh. There is.
\nSo putting a 64-bit image of a VM doesn’t work.
\nI should write that down.
\nStupid dog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
