The computer room fork

Went to local Teriyaki/Sushi place for dinner. They gave us some edamame while we were waiting for our food; neither one of us all that fond of it. As usual, I had sushi, Honey had chicken teriyaki.
Lothlorien picked up a DHCP address from the wrong place (wireless router); couldn't see an easy way to tell it to only hand out addresses for wireless, so disabled its DHCP server via the web interface, since I only use it for wireless and donÂt use it much even for that. Now it should get the address from minas-tirith, which means it should add itself to the DNS via my DHCP DNS daemon. Lothlorien is moving upstairs, so I'd pinged it by name, which is how I found out about the DHCP issue. Apparently it was the noisiest PC in the room, too; it's almost eerily quiet now that I've moved it up (the laptop that I'm using now—connected to a regular keyboard, mouse, and my new 22" LCD monitor—is second; minas-tirith is very quiet as is cirith-ungol, the media box in the next room).
Books finished: Jennifer Government.
