Looks like I managed to fix a self standing vacuum cleaner (is that the right name?). The vacuum would run and pull dirt, but the brush didn't turn and there were no lights.

New blog post!

This time it's a random flow of words and old man waving at clouds, as I talk about how I perceive the improvements in computer storage over the last 25 years. From floppies to ZFS raids.
