Fri Jan 27 07:57:57 EST 2017 Slept from 11:30 to seven without waking. High of thirty-four today. Chance of snow, but not amounting to anything. Work: - Test containerized Asterisk, clean up notes Done. A couple of odds and ends remain, but this works. Good. - Make a few notes on OverlayFS Not much. https://www.hastexo.com/blogs/florian/2016/02/21/containers-just-because-everyone-else/ Use a read-only base filesystem beneath a writable overlay. Write only to the overlay, leaving the underlying base filesystem unmodified. Mask certain base filesystem items with "opaque directories". A single base filesystem with multiple overlays can create any number of different read/write union mounts. Updates to one base filesystem instantly updates all union mounts upon a simple remount. https://web.archive.org/web/20161206124221/http://www.brendangregg.com/linuxperf.html Decided for the hell of it to give gnome-terminal a test drive. Blinking cursor by default, and not configurable through the GUI preferences?! for uuid in $(gsettings get org.gnome.Terminal.ProfilesList list | tr -d "[',]"); do gsettings set org.gnome.Terminal.Legacy.Profile:/org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:${uuid}/ cursor-blink-mode off done Does gnome-terminal not know about font weights? I guess it's not doing the "render bold type brighter" thing. Guess I'll stick with Suckless st term. Twenty minute walk at lunch. Gray. A little snow falling. Home: - Buy a birthday card for mom, call her about lunch or dinner Done. Also picked up a few groceries. Lunch tomorrow tomorrow at noon or one; mom will call me. - Draw Done. Tried out a Staedtler Triplus Fineliner. Smoother and blacker than the Sharpie pen, but not waterproof or archival. The Fineliner is available in thirty-some colors. And they're inexpensive. Breakfast: carrots, yogurt, coffee Lunch: cheeseburger with hot sauce and jalapenos Dinner: frozen pizza
