    So I finally get pissed off enough with my garage/workshop to invest in
    Mr Screwfixes cheapest toolchest, some wall mounted storage bins, a
    nice cheapo peg board from B&Q and a 6" vice.

    I've now found out I have enough insulation tape to circle the world,
    about 1/5th of things I have two of, and I've found all those tools I
    went out and bought and managed to loose before even ripping off the
    backing cardboard. [2]

    God, I've wasted money over the years.

    Wall mounted bins not here yet, but when they do arrive I can see a few
    weekends happily re-arranging stuff, bolting vice to worktop and
    setting up the CNC machine and PC.

    I've even got a spare microwave and dancing christmas gnomes I can
    setup to keep me company.




    [1] This'll confuse 'em
    [2] How many other people have done the same and discovered various
    duplicated tools?

    Noticed my server CPU usage was pegged at 100%.

    Investigated and found out that a "chown" command was the culprit,
    which was part of the script to post all my new news articles.

    So, with that script locked up all new posts from me just got queued.

    They are on my local server so I see them and think they've made it out.

    WTF chown should lock up and hammer the CPU I've no idea, I've guessed
    the script ran twice and something deleted the file half way through
    chown trying to change ownership, and have changed the script suitably.
    (it has protection to stop it running twice anyway, so really I ain't
    got an ucking clue)

  4. Oh right. I didn't know whether it was something with the motzarella
    news server I'm using or whatever reason.
