The first (bad) picture of Amy with Pandora. Pandora is the chosen name of the new iMac. Seems appropriate in a variety of ways. Pandora is now busily transferring stuff from Amy’s account on Cronus. In the meantime Cronus (and thus the webcam and AbulWiki) are down. This will probably last a few hours. She has 30 gig of stuff to move. Not as bad as when I moved from Zeus to Cronus, but still plenty!
Then after that stuff is all moved, I have a few other things I’ll be setting up. Hopefully I’ll be able to get it all done before TOO late tonight. I have a meeting at 15 UTC today, so I’ll have to be up even earlier than that. I suspect even if this all gets done, it will be a day relatively light on sleep. This migration process takes forever, and then after that’s done I’ll probably be messing with it for a couple of hours before everything is set how I want it to be to hand over to her.
Anyway… we’re in process.
Anthropomorphizing machines seems wrong to me. You don’t want to find yourself in a moral quandry should you need to someday put a machine down, like if it’s locking you out of the house or turning off our oxygen supply.
