Longing

From John's wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

My server 'longing' was my main server in my lab. You can read about its disk configuration or my other computers. It is in the process of being decommissioned and rebuilt as 'lore'.

After this server went live to replace love, love was reconfigured as companion, and compassion was decommissioned.
