@steve @cmhobbs It is in the 70s (F) in #Mississippi the last day or two. So much more comfortable than the 90s that we’ve had previously. Still intermittent drizzle, but even that is more pleasant when it isn’t so hot.

@jim You need to see this link that @steve posted: http://url.federati.net/UJxUb ... I think it is right where you’re heading.

@steve Hope you enjoyed your birthday.

@steve Not good. I was planning to try out a CLI !diaspora client. Too many browser tabs open.

I just heard of that disease this week. The county health dept brought us fliers about it. Apparently, some cases in #Mississippi.

@steve @mmn Yeah, bad news for me. Since CB died, I have no plan to keep pets until I work where I come home every night.

In the search box (top, next to your name & avatar), enter username@podname of the person you’re looking for. Usually, but not always, it will find the person and allow you to add that person as a contact. !diaspora

@steve I’m assuming you already tried wiping the HDD with #DBAN or similar ‘disk wipe’ before starting installation. What if you swap drives, install from the other computer, then swap them back?

Are the problem disks similar brand and model and age? Check to see whether any other disks may be affected.

@steve I see you’ve got the #queuedaemons (or the optimistic queing) working now. Seeing day-old notices here.
