Vaccine

I recently got a vaccine for COVID-19. It was the Moderna vaccine. I have completed the second of two shots. I live in California in the Los Angeles area. The area will be reopening June 15. A couple of days after that date I will have two weeks pass after my second vaccine shot. At that time I will have the full benefits from immunity from that shot.

Update

Not much has happened since I last wrote. Things are looking a little background as there are vaccines coming so the covid situation may improve in the upcoming months. It seems to be out of control in the US now.

Various problems

I haven’t written in a while. I am doing OK but there are things that I am facing right now. COVID-19 is causing a disruption in conditions where I live. I do not have it nor odes anyone I know have it. I am glad for that. But it has caused a departure from normal conditions where I live and it may continue to do so in the future. I may write about this topic again.

Happy New Year

I am sorry I haven’t posted for a while. I have had computer problems. I will be installing various operating systems in various computers in the coming months. Right now I am using Windows 10 and chrome for most things. I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays.

Voting

I have already voted. I have registered to vote by mail which is very convenient. I have voted exclusively for Democratic party candidates. I will probably continue to do so for a long time as the Republican party has shifted so far to the right. I think the Republican party has become Trumps’s party and that change has been deep and will be long lasting. I have not supported the Republican party for a long time and in my opinion it has taken a change for the worse.

Linux upgrade

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 18.04 from 16.04. 16.04 was ok. I have been on 18.04 for a few days with a smooth upgrade and no problems except a couple of minor glitches.

Power problems

I think I wrote about having problems with electric power in a previous post. We have now replaced the fusebox so we should have better performance in that area. Happy Thanksgiving to everybody!

Various Problems

I haven’t posted here for a while. I have had as the title suggests had various problems. I have had a power outage then after I got that fixed My computer stopped working and then our internet went out. We ended up changing ISP’s which is good because the new one doesn’t have a data cap.  Apparently the old one didn’t support our old modem. I got the computer working and I am posting this using the Linux operating system again. The problems I have had with this computer are related to hardware.

 

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the US. Recently I wrote about a problem I had with Linux. I think now that it is not related to Linux but was a hardware problem. In any case the problem has not repeated itself and I am glad.

 

More on Linux

I have recently had some trouble with Linux. Ubuntu wouldn’t load. I had to run fsck to fix it. I am not sure exactly what the problem was or what caused it. I may have similar problems. I will wait and see.
