Vancouver is pretty much my favourite city in the world

It was so good to make get back to Vancouver. We only had a couple of nights here, so we made the most of it!

Monday

An early start got us breakfast at a local café. We explored town a little bit, and had a look in a few shops. Then we caught a small boat over to Granville Island. This was the view we were met with. It was awful.

New York City, bay-bee!

So, we made it to New York. 15 hours and 35 minutes later. This plane travel business is exhausting.

Holidays!

Last week Chris and I booked our holidays for early 2019: In January and Febuary we have a cracking itinerary!

We definitely live in a simulation

Maybe Elon was right.

Synology WebStation 2 is a giant pile of shit

I have updated to WebStation 2.0, because I like the new shiny. I installed the Apache 2.2 backend, but it wouldn’t start, providing an error:

Failed to run the package service. 

I did some digging: when you install the Apache 2.2 WebStation backend, all the old WebStation configuration files...

Some light reading for your Monday morning…

Just as a preface, I am not some sort of deprived maniac: I am looking at my referrers, and trying to re-host any old, accessed content that people are linking to. Apparently, at some point, I hosted VacuumInjuries.pdf. And it is pretty consistently requested, and I hate returning 404s.
