maybe of running a virtual box
inside
my Linux machine, in which I can run Windoze or the
rotten Apple or
some other Linux OS, just to keep up a little with changes that are
going on "out there".
I could have written this, or most of it. I don't know if it helps
knowing you're not alone...

The Trinity users list is becoming my entire social life. I also wonder
if maybe this is not healthy. On the other hand, fewer and fewer people
"out there" seem to be really sane; and when I must use their computers,
this worries me even more.
When I was mostly offline for a few days, trying to migrate from Debian
to Devuan, I got 44 emails, of which 43 were from the TDE mailing list.
Tomorrow, at any rate, I shall try to make it downstairs, past the front
desk,
beyond the ice machine, and to go outdoors, maybe
even as far as the
library and the farmers market. Also, I need coffee.

Bloody hell mate. You're out of coffee?

I had just enough to get my 2-cup dose on Sunday morning, then it was out to
find some more. I can always walk to a cafe or bakery on my street, or go to
the corner shop to buy some; but then it's expensive. If I want to get it at
a decent price, it means an expedition. But now my stock is replenished, and
ought to last me until the first week of next month.
