It's December
=============

It's December. This  year is special (you know, the  2020 us crazy) but
in principle  everything will be as  usual: the first part  of December
(until 23rd) will  be hectic (all these deadlines  accompanied by usual
chaos and masses  of hysteric people) and then everything  will be very
slow.

All shops and pubs have been opened here from last Thursday so the next
COVID-19 has to be expected.

I thing that I will have little time for my phlog until the end of they
year. I already have writen some phlog post on my Z88 but now I have to
find time to transfer upload and publish them.


Other news:

At least no I have an emulated Plan 9 instance (the 9front/i386) with a
working Gopher  client (I found one  at Github). The problem  is that I
have not set  up my QEMU networking correctly so  I have network issues
(even the FTP is not reliable) so I  cannot use the Gopher as much as I
want.

I'm planing that  I will try install  the 9front on a  Lenovo x60 which
seems to be supported.  But I expect that I will able  to install it in
January, 2020  at best. I also  have to find it's  docking station with
the CD-ROM first (I already prepared the installation CD).

I also have  a Dallas RTC chip  replacement for my SGI O2  (and for the
Octane, too) but I'm still not brave enough to touch a SGI workstation.
