So, after last night's rant-fest, I think it's time I did throttle back a bit. I'm not going to re-dissect the whole FatDog issue again and again, like I normally do. I'm letting it go...
No matter how damnedably peeved it makes me.
I, in fact, totally avoided computers for most of the day. I got out, stayed on the move, walked, did "stuff". I enjoyed the day. (As much as one can enjoy a rather cold summer day on which one is completely buried in unfinished tasks...)
However, eventually, I gave in to the need to just browse my email and hit a few websites.
However...
OK, so I went a little crazy. I got out the Acer Aspire 3000, and after some thought, ditched the Bodhi install and replaced it with CrunchBang. Which actually took some time, as I do have an older distro of #!, and upgrading it was a bit of a process. But, once it was up and running, I think I see a bit of a difference. I don't notice the AMD Sempron processor cranking quite as much, and I think it's running a bit cooler. And the battery life seems a little improved.
So, score another one for #!. (And, no, I'm not bringing up the menu fracas from a while back. I'm over that, too.)
I am not, however, going to be parked on the computer this evening. I've been a bit of a zombie all day after being up so late. That, after working for most of the day, then doing the long drive home, didn't do much for me today, so I'm going to try to actually be sensible tonight. (ie, asleep by a decent hour.)
Time to throttle back...
