I noticed the time on my raspberry pi was out by about 11 hours and upon checking saw it was set to UTC. To fix this, I removed localtime from /etc and added symbolic link to my timezone. sudo rm /etc/localtime sudo ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/NSW /etc/localtime

Marco, marco, marco…
Marco, marco, marco… Where for art though Marco? This is an old photo, taken back when he was cool and performing at The Woolpack, Chalmers Street, Surry Hills (aka Redfern). Those were the days. Poker, Karaoke, Trivia, Disco… OH, hang on, you didn’t do the karaoke there. He was cool back then, but he’s way …
My head hurts…
I had a really big year last year, and it looks as though this year is not going to get any slower. I spent the vast majority (90+%) in Thailand and had a WOW of a time. You have to take the bad with the good. But all in all, it was pretty good. I’ve …
