Thief

When the thieves forced the door at R1, that's Dalia Robledo's apartment, they had to neutralize two locking mechanisms. People inside were not aware of the intrusion until it was too late. Luckily, nobody got hurt. The thieves got away with the a month old tv set.

I replaced the door locks, and installed a brand new dead bolt lock.

I changed this blog's theme and template. I increased the width and picked a nice background to update everything. I guess if you're viewing this blog on a mobile device it won't make a difference.

It's nice. Very nice.

Some More Furniture Repair Photos

Some pieces of wood are truly sublime.



You put your ass on it after a long day and if it's truly a long day then put your legs up too. You deserve it.



After M Roger stripped the old stained varnish from this little one, it sat for a while staring back naked.



Now it looks shiny and new.

The Big Round Table Spun Back to Life

We bought it right after we moved to our house in Maly. It is the first material investment made so that the new house would look normal.

Of course we had a television and a refrigerator. We don't have a dinner table. I think we ate in front of the tv.

After purchasing this big round table, our family ate together like civilized people.

BEFORE


AFTER


That was 1970. We grew old and dad passed away.

The six chairs that came with it is now ruined, damaged. They're in storage. I don't think they're salvageable. But I have this.

So I told M Roger, our friendly handyman to apply a fresh coat of varnish on the thing. He did more than that, I believe. And he's not yet finished.

I updated Google Chrome today and got this when I clicked on the New Tab.

How To Solve Auth_Failed Error In Ubuntu One

If you're getting an error like this when you open ubuntu one client, then it means the token file saved in your hard drive is corrupted and useless. You have to generate a fresh one and restart the ubuntu one daemon.

I will recommend you read this helpful documentation from Ubuntu One for completeness.

Run Seahorse (alt+F2, then type seahorse). If you're using Unity just use the power key+A, then type Password and Keys, Enter key. Filter the keys by typing ubuntu one. Right-click on the specific tokens and delete them. Close Seahorse after you're done.

Open the Ubuntu One client and it should prompt you to login. Follow the login steps. Just like when you first run Ubuntu One in your computer.

Ubuntu One Auth Failed Error

I have been seeing these error in Ubuntu One client since yesterday and wondering if a recent update is the source.

I checked my account via web and the last time any file was sync was 20 hours ago. Should I be worried?


I can obviously login via web to my account using my passwords. Are Ubuntu One servers limiting how many times I can access or sync my files? Is this a real software problem? Is this a configuration problem?
