What Are You Doing Right Now

So I made a script that creates VDI containers and then you can connect with x2go. I have a default container with everything installed (it would take way too much time and resources to upgrade each one and pull in xfce and x2go for every container) and it just clones the container, removes the default user and creates a new user (I'm hoping to make it parse a csv file for the users), and sets a temporary password that is changed on the first login.
I wanted to use ansible but lxc_clone isn't in the module yet. I guess it is but it's only in version 2, and the ppa only pulls to 1.9.4 (I could download from github but at this point it was easier to make a bash script). It works pretty well.
One thing I realized would be nice about this is you can do incremental file level backups from the host. So when Susan accidentally deletes her picture of her cat and realizes it an hour later afterwards, you can just grab that file without restoring the whole container and her losing the last hours worth of work. I mean you can do this with an agent also obviously, but it's nice to be able to do it from the host all at once.

Fixed a battery operated toy for mini-nadnerB by jamming folder pieces of paper between the batteries and the cover to keep the batteries in place on the contacts. My MacGyver Dad skills have increased slightly.

Sleep sounds pretty good to me. I don't think I got enough of it this week.

Screaming as in. OMG who would ever use these parts to build a software raid to test a VM Backup and Restore system........ (so blood curdling drives reading data as fast as they can to push over a 1GB NIC to restore to my production hypervisor)

Here is a post I made with a good amount of screen captures.
