Home base

Recently I swapped out the old Dell machine that was running our home server and replaced it with my til-then desktop, which was just a whitebox but with some better specs.

My desktop is now my Dell Inspiron 1520, and I took the opportunity to plug in the old monitor and get a dual screen setup :) I have dualscreens at work and it's hard to come back to a single screen once you're used to your terminal in one window, browser in the other.

Hooray for the nvidia-settings app which handles the Twinview setup very easily! Sorry opensource :)

htop uptime easter egg

I never noticed this until today, but it turns out htop has a little easter egg:

When your server hits over 100 days of uptime, htop congratulates you with a little exclamation point :)

From UptimeMeter.c
if (days > 100) {
sprintf(daysbuf, "%d days(!), ", days);
}

Worried me initially, I thought something was wrong! :)
