Wow, what an action packed adventure. Work is going very well. Progress is a very nice language but it makes real the many complaints about proprietary platforms I have heard in the past. I am also dabbling quite a bit in JavaScript for something internal. It's a more pleasing language than I used to think, and I haven't ever disliked it.
Something sad computery was that my attempt to install Fedora via net install failed, in that the installation went perfectly REPLACING MY EXISTING PARTITION LAYOUT. Thanks to gpart and dd, I have rescued my original Ubuntu partition- I think. I am very fortunate that I did not have it at the start of the disk. (Rather, than tragic honour went to an already corrupted Windows installation.) I will write some details about how to manage the net install and then how to rescue partitions later.
Amusingly, I got an e-mail notifying me of the availability of an old domain of mine, except as .com rather than .net. I am fairly certain that it was available previous to this e-mail, and has now been purchased by hucksters hoping they can sell it to me at a profit. Hahaha.
I have a new BC number, and will apparently hug(?). More later!
Oh, one last thing- I spent the day imagining other people's perspectives, something I should do more often; it brought my surroundings all the more to life.
