Tis half-past pumpkin-hour, & i'm about to go beddybyes, after a day that did not go anything like i had expected. All plans went out the window Sat morn when during the beginning of my day's pooterising, i suddenly noticed via my Plasma desktop widget, & my #Conky, that the cpu temperature was ~30-40 deg C hotter than normal, & the reason was that its cooling fan was stopped. Bummer.

I immediately put pooter to sleep, to cool down, whilst i planned my actions. Once ready, i woke her up again, inserted my USB stick on which i do my weekly [Sunday] backups, & ran a backup a day early, whilst i nervously watched the temperature. Then fully shutdown, waiting for Sunday when i shall attempt to inspect the fan to see if it's buggered, or [hopefully] just gummed up with dust that i can clean out.

However, i have various things i need to do online [bills & stuff], so coz atm the prognosis for pooter is uncertain, i chose to plan on a worst-case scenario where she's unavailable for days or weeks. Hence, the rest of today was spent getting out my venerable old 2011 lappy, doing the backlog of [#Fedora #KDE #Plasma] updates, transferring all my pooter's backed-up data from stick to lappy's SSD, then re-customising all my main app settings to get the form & function more or less the same as i have on my #ArchLinux #KDE #Plasma pooter. I really can't quite believe all the hours this cumulative process has taken, OMZ.

Not whingeing, just quite tired now, & still a bit discombobulated.
