Comment Switches or valves? (Score 0) 108

I'm guessing that there was no mechanical connection between the switches in the cockpit and the actual valces controlling the fuel?

Is there a computer inbetween the cockpit switches and the valves that could have decided to do the deed?

Are the reports refering to the switches refering to the physical switches in the cockpit or the result of somthing switching the valves?

I use the hardlink feature of rsync to back up, with -excludes, the home directory of my macbook to a hard disk attached to a Raspberry Pi. I also have another PI and disk in my son's appartment. The whole of the macbook gets backed up to a usb disk using timemachine. The Pi's do a similar rsync of themselves as root from / every night.

But really, the only things I really care about are my photographs.

I just want my Raspberry Pi to work. But I have problems on reboot with sshd, apache2 and isc-dhcp-server. But at least I could get radicale running. But not on a reboot.

I have read that rc.local can be used but does not neccessarily run at the end of the boot sequence.

I run a cron job to make it better. It sucks as far as I am concerned.

For adding exifdata to a number of photos at once, you can use exiftool http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/ I also use NikonviewNX to add titles to my photos. This is free from Nikon.

However, I don't touch the originals and only update copies of the photos.

Once you have data in the photo's exifdata, you can extract for other purposes using exiftool or the underlying libraries.

It isn't easy being the parent of a six-year-old. However, it's a pretty small price to pay for having somebody around the house who understands computers.
