    The article says that they will sell the ones which haven't evaporated - worth $1k each :D

    There’s an event called unicon, which is a worldwide convention of Unicyclists. It was supposed to happen this July in France. Well, it got postponed to next July. Now the word is that it has been rescheduled till 2022.
    I think I might have a great big holiday in 2022....

    I was hoping to spend a few days over the weekend after Christmas, working on my new file server build. All the parts are now in stock and waiting for me - except one.

    ... but there's still time for a Christmas miracle!

    I'm sitting in the car, on a hilltop, in the rain, waiting for the private fireworks on the next ridge over at 9pm ... one of only two events in the entire Hunter Valley ... dedication

    Then home for champers and home made tiramisu

    No, last component arrived late yesterday. Spent last night and most of today building new server. Preparing drives now - this process will take a few weeks to complete (large drives can take 24-48 hours to test and prepare for use).

    In further #fwp news, the drive trays I need to complete the second half of the build are out of stock worldwide. No news on ETA.

    I've re-arranged my workstation (same case in a smaller size) to borrow the drive trays from that machine which gives me a total of 12 of the 20 trays I need.
