Fedora 16 - Easiest Upgrade Ever?

·

So far everything works. I didn't have to destroy anything. It has been the easiest upgrade ever. I will post any weirdness I find tomorrow.

sudo rpm --import https://fedoraproject.org/static/A82BA4B7.txt
sudo yum update yum
sudo yum clean all
sudo yum --releasever=16 --disableplugin=presto distro-sync
sudo reboot

Hiking at Niagara Gorge

·

I can't believe how low the Niagara river is. I have been there 100 times and never seen the parts of the river bed that were unconvered this time. It was a good 15 feet lower which revealed a lot of interesting rock structures. This time instead of going back up the steps we climbed directly up the cliff. When we popped out at the top we were in a cage of sorts. The weather was so beautiful.

Hiking at Hunter's Creek

·

On Sunday @matthew, @tinypliny, @YesThatCasey and I went hiking at Hunter's Creek in East Aurora. We started on Hunters creek rd and randomly hiked around some of the parts I remembered from high school. Having the phone GPS makes getting lost impossible. I wish the weather would last. I kept not wanting to look but I was tracking our trip with My Tracks.

Exclusively Alaskan Good - Take 5

·

Headed back to my favorite fishmonger last night to pick up some more crab legs. The ones she carries are always so delicious.

This time I cracked all the shells before I ate them in order to make the eating part effortless.

I paired then with red pears, red romaine, rice and zucchini.

They started carrying seafood from florida so while we were there I also picked up some cape rock shrimp. They came pre shelled which should make cooking a snap. I am thinking garlic butter, lemon and white wine sauce.

Carrots are people too

Went to the farmers market with Casey this morning. Afterwards we sat on the sidewalk in the last remaining warmth of the season. Here's to a mild winter.

4 more days till Fedora 16

·

I am so excited about the new fedora build. It is interesting to learn that it was supposed to be named Beefy Miracle but apparently they extended the voting period and it ended up being called Verne. Doesn't extending a vote period seem illegitimate?

Anyways, Fedora 17 got the Beefy Miracle name after all Here is the history behind the name
