When I saw a green shape ahead of me as I crossed the paved road, I thought it was a thin, slender leaf. There were no vehicles on the road, so I could take my time, move closer, and take a better look. And then the green shape inched forward! It wasn’t a leaf, but a slender, green caterpillar.

This question got me into a...
Of course I couldn't leave it there...

“We can take a day trip to Shanghai from Nanjing,” Feng suggested. The post Right at Home in the Wrong Shanghai first appeared on Correr Es Mi Destino.
I have had the Arch Linux linux-hardened kernel installed on my Qotom fanless server since I bought it a couple of years ago. The Qotom has had kernel panics on the last two linux-hardened updates.
