  • Insight Cruises FreeBSD Patches Song Association

  • Upgrading operating systems and experiencing humorous musical associations.

  • Applying Patches

    • On October 1, 2011, I worked on upgrading the FreeBSD operating system on the servers for Insight Cruises.
    • I noted that every time I saw the system message "Applying patches," I started humming Clarence Carter's classic song "Patches."
These facts are as Randal recalls them, but much time has passed for most of this. If you find a factual error, please email realmerlyn@gmail.com.
