Turns out the fluorescent fixtures I got for free are T8 fixtures and not T12, they just put the wrong bulbs in. I'm not even surprised, the maintenance guy responsible for the lights is not the brightest tool in the shed. lol. He once declared every balast as bad in a room because none of the lights worked after changing all the bulbs. That's because the light switch was off.

So bought 4 T8 bulbs, I'll have to install these fixtures some time in my work out area in my basement to replace the light sockets that have CFLs. Won't have to worry about hitting them when doing overhead presses. Not that fluorescent fixtures are that expensive but free stuff is always great. :D

Another lazy day, I need to stop this trend. Going to eat something then do some actual work, there's a program I need to code so I can retire my old mail server. Wanted to use virtual users on the new server, but it seems procmail or other similar programs don't fully support it. So I'm writing my own mail transport. :D There is one called sieve that looks like it does what I want, but it actually does not. It does not support executing arbitrary programs like spamc and assumes it's done on a global level. I don't want to run spamc on every mailbox.

Still wish I took that vacuum pump from work. 90% chance it'd be sitting here unused, since it was 3 phase, but it was a several thousand dollar pump they threw away because it "went bad" and could only get down to 1.2 millibar. Needed the vacuum for an industrial laser.

I'm tempted to do some exercise right now too, but I want to see if my wrist will heal.
Jumping jack squats for me...

Weird super tired suddenly. Been a few times this happens in the past weeks. I don't think it's because I worked out, was starting to feel it even before I started. It's not even that late.

Happens to me all the time too...
In fact I'm fighting serious exhaustion right now.

I just checked the internet, and according to them I have diabetes.
Explains a lot.

lol I kept landing on diabetes too when doing searches while having that stomac thing. The tiredness started around the same time. They checked my blood sugar when I went to the ER and it was ok. I'm seeing my family doctor this week, hopefully they can send me for some tests, this stomac thing is still not 100% gone.
