Woot! Laptop's high temp issues have been solved. By turning down the backlight brightness... which makes no sense to me.

Kiddo's school's inventor fair was fun. Good times with paper air rockets at least. Also hit the Egypt exhibit at the museum since we were there. Kinda cool to say "look, this is 5000 years old".

Ouch. Note to self: avoid the bright green everclear drinks from now on.

Today I gave Fedora a try. It also runs 10-15C hotter than win7 and won't resume from suspend. So much for the theory it was a debian-based-distro issue.

Tried Ubuntu 12.04. With fglrx it actually resumed from suspend. Once... then never again. It also runs 10-15C hotter than win7, just like every other distro I've tried. Stupid windows working correctly...

Kiddo is off to stay at Grandma's for a couple days. Guess that means it's time for a bloody mary!

Hrm. My little VPS is running out of resources in my efforts to de-google-ize myself. I may have to kill my statusnet instance and go back to another one.

Aha. It seems I accidentally ordered the 100mA IR LEDs. No wonder the chip resets when I try to turn em on... #oops

What an interesting smell... One of the dryers (in the laundry room of the adjacent building) caught on fire. Surprise!

Seems there was a little brush fire up the canyon. Just 5 acres and out now, but it took our power out for an hour. Lucky, given the 40+ mph wind of late.

Tired of futzing with Linux installs, think I'll go read for a while.

Nope, #crunchbang doesn't resume after a suspend either. Odd, several do resume when testing from USB stick, but not when installed to hdd.

Playing with #CrunchBang. Wonder if it'll suspend? #notholdingmybreath
