Moffett Field's Hangar One as seen from the VTA Light Rail. Those clouds are unusual for Mountain View, where Hangar One looms as a distinctive landmark.

Waiting for Breakfast

The automatic feeders don't open but once a day. When Maggie gets hungry, its time to wait, vigilantly . . .

Sleeping In

Maggie crawled in to bed and preferred to nap, rather than seeing what I might be up to. So, I tucked her in.

No, I can not explain this work of brilliance spied upon a coworker's white board.

isatapd: IPv6 on Ubuntu

Link: https://dannyman.toldme.com/2011/06/08/can-haz-ipv6/

Yes, it looks like you're using IPv6 already.

SysAdmins, check with Tom.

My employer (Cisco) makes IPv6 available internally on a test basis. Once I configured the isatap hostname on my system, all I had to do to get my Ubuntu laptop on IPv6 was:

sudo apt-get install isatapd

I look forward to trying this on a few more systems:

sudo apt-get install isatapd && ping6 -c 1 www.ipv6.cisco.com && figlet -c 'I CAN HAZ IPv6!!'

Cisco Wants YOU!

This amusing slide hopefully doesn't reveal any proprietary mojo, other than that some parts of Cisco may or may not possess a sense of humor.

That is Cisco CEO John Chambers as Uncle Sam, in case you are wondering.

Mei's folks were in town for Father's Day, so she made him an Apple Pie, and a pork roast, and other delicious things for dinner.

Tire Failure

Link: https://dannyman.toldme.com/2011/06/20/tire-failure/

You don't see a bike tire do that very often.

For some time I had noticed and been avoiding the weird bulge in my rear bicycle tire. Finally it gave way on my commute. The threads inside the tire appear to have been separating, and I guess I hit something sharp at a weak spot.

I put on my spare tube and made it home. I have since replaced this tire with a knobby road tire, paired with a puncture-resistant inner tube and a puncture-resistant liner. If I never have to change a bicycle tire again it will be too soon!

Sometimes, the tail end of the newer trains look to me like a tugboat.

To Change a Lightbulb

Link: https://dannyman.toldme.com/2011/06/22/to-change-a-lightbulb/

How many municipal employes does it take to change a light bulb? In Mountain View, CA, it apparently takes two.

This seems reasonable to me.

I bet that bear gets hungry some times. But since he moved to Palo Alto he's a big sushi fan, so this lady will be okay.
