The replacement fan came today, and when I got back from lunch the workstation was snorfling away in its corner as usual. As workstations with ambitions to be servers go, it's relatively quiet, but only relatively.
Have I mentioned this month that I find white noise rather the reverse of soothing? This seems to be particularly true when I'm low on sleep, which I am, currently. The new-year determination to keep more sensible hours is mostly manifesting, so far, in my getting up somewhere between half an hour and an hour earlier than usual, but without any noticeable increase in efficiency, or earlier bedtimes to compensate. I may have to stop going online at breakfast-time; back in the old days before broadband, I used to be able to get through my morning routine in thirty-five minutes flat, but that tended to involve eating my cereal standing up and drinking coffee as I got dressed. I don't know if I can do that any more, but I should probably try.
