January 1st
===========

I'm  sitting in  front of  my  SGI O2  workstation, browsing  Mastodon,
syncing  my Plucker  feeds, listening  ORF Radio  Wien on-line,  and of
course writing this phlog.

In  2019 I  updated,  or  prepared for  update,  most  of my  computing
environment. I  have got an  OpenPower (POWER9) workstation,  I reduced
number of monitors on  my desk (from 3 to 2),  prepared new router (but
not connected  it, yet), finally ceased  to use a smartphone  and so. I
also have hot  a new Palm device  - the Tungsten W and  have started to
use it quite often.

There were also some unwanted changes - the HDD of my SGI Indy died and
the CD-ROM,  too. At the  moment it means that  I'm not able  to return
this system to  live. It is unfortunate because this  Indy was my first
non-x86  system and  also my  very first  SGI. I'm  still think  that I
should have a spare HDD elsewhere but I have not found it, yet.


But the funny thing is that as my first desktop computer at the January
1st I  have started  not the POWER9  desktop nor the  GPD Pocket  or at
least  am Apple  PowerBook but  my old  good O2  (at the  moment it  is
probably the  slowest working  desktop computer that  I have).  It seem
that if will take a very long time before I will be able to switch from
SGI to POWER9 completely...


Long live SGI...
