Post by Seba, translation by me, my own commentary after the *’s.

Que tal? De nuevo estoy aca, “voluntariamente” para escribir de algo que pueda sonar medianamente interesante.

What’s up? Here I am again “voluntarily” to write something that might sound moderately interesting. *He wanted to write about his new super duper RAID server hard drive thingy. Trust me. This is better.

No es que no me guste escribir, tampoco es que me de flojera (igual es 50% flojera) lo que pasa es que simplemente lo que es interesante para mi, probablemente no lo es para ustedes. Hay veces en que tengo ideas y se las comento a la Kyle, su respuesta: “BORING!!!!!” Asi es como mis geniales ideas se van descartadas una tras otra (probablemente es mejor para ustedes asi).

It’s not that I don’t like to write. It’s not that I’m lazy (ok, so maybe it’s 50% laziness) but it’s just that what’s interesting to me, probably interesting to you. Sometimes I think of something to write about and I tell it to Kyle and her response is “BORING!!!” So that’s how my awesome ideas get discarded, one after another (which is probably best for you guys). *I don’t discard his ideas like that. I’m much nicer. I say, “boring,” not, “BORING!!!!”

Bueno, la cosa es que recientemente, tratando de solucionar nuestro creciente problema de almacenamiento de fotos, decidimos armar un servidor en el que respaldariamos TODOS los archivos que tenÃamos hasta el dia de hoy, repartidos en 8 discos duros externos y 4 computadores. (I’m a nerd, I know).

Well, recently, while trying to find a solution to our growing problem of how to store photos, we (*he) decided to put together a server we would back up ALL the archives that we’ve up to this point, on 8 hard external hard drives and 4 computers. (I’m a nerd I know). *No, you don’t know. You don’t know the half of it.

De esta forma, ordenando las cosas en carpetas por fecha y nombres llegue a dar con fotos del 2005 y me di cuenta de una cosa. Mi cara no cambia nunca. La cago. Me veo exactamente igual en las fotos del 2005 al 2010. De hecho el otro dia renove mi licencia (que vence cada 10 anos). Al final la licencia nueva se veia igual que la vieja, solo parecia que le habian cambiado la fecha, me veia exactamente igual.

So that’s how I started organizing everything in folders by date and name. I got back to pictures from 2005 and I realized one thing. My face never changes. Jeez. I look exactly the same in photos from 2005 to 2010. Actually the other day, I had to renew my driver’s license (which expires every 10 years). After all is said and done, the new license looked identical to the old license. It just looked like they changed the date. I looked exactly the same.

Pero bueno, les dejo un par de fotos para que ustedes decidan. Me veo igual?

So I’ll leave you with a couple pictures so that you guys can decide. Do I look the same?

2005:

2006:

2007:

2008:

2009: *His head looks more misshapen here. That might be the lens. Either that or time is molding him into an egg.

2010: *Trying on his friend’s sunglasses.

Y para que vean que esto es 100% verdad que mi cara no cambia, aca estoy cuando tenia 5 meses.

And just so you can see that I’m 100% telling the truth, that my face doesn’t change, here I am when I was 5 months old.

Acabo de leer el post entero y es terrible de fome!!!! Supongo que mejor deberia dejar esto de los blog post para a Kyle.

I just read the whole post and it’s really boring!!! I guess I should leave this blog thing to Kyle. *No. Please don’t.

Bueno, una idea. Preguntenme algo y lo respondo en el proximo post que haga en un par de semanas. Les tinca?

Here’s an idea — ask me anything and I’ll respond within the next couple of weeks. How does that sound? *Please ask him anything. I need him to blog!

Jajajajajaja morÃ de la risa! es verdad!!! no has cambiado NADA!!! supongo q es algo bueno, no? CÃ©sar (les hablÃ© del Ã©l es sÃ¡bado) es de esas personas q se mimetiza y no se sabe q edad tiene… y como anda conmigo pa todos lados siempre le preguntan si somos compaÃ±eros, aunque el tiene 14 aÃ±os mÃ¡s que yo (si, catorce). Una amiga dice q CÃ©sar es “age-less”, supongo q tu tambien!

Es cierto, no cambias nada. Ayuda a eso que parece que llevas hartos aÃ±os con el pelo ultra corto.
Â¿QuÃ© tipo de raid instalaste? La dura que para mÃ al menos ese tema es interesante, por que cuando el raid estÃ¡ instalado en RAID 1, los procesos de escritura cambian brÃgidamente; aunque lo he usado para jugar solamente, me imagino que para editar video, comprimir raws, aplicar cÃ³decs y procesar fotos, debe ayudar mucho tambiÃ©n. De hecho, debe haber estado pensado para eso antes que para jugar Lineage2 u otros juegos que se laguean de tanto leer disco.

Ah, my husband keeps talking about setting us up with a RAID backup system. Probably a good idea after I’ve lost two hard drives this year. Ugh.

Kyle, you’re so pretty.

Wait, was this post about Seba?

You didn’t post about what type of box / software you are running your raid server on, haha!

I also had to shave at 5 months old

Dani, Seba is obsessed with his RAID system. OBSESSED. If you have any questions, email me and I’ll make Seba respond.

Jajajaja, Xanthe, you’re too funny!

Kai, anyone man who’s truly a baller had to shave at age 5.

Pia, cierto que es ageless?!?

Marmo, Seba puede hablar por horas del tema, si quieres saber mas mandame un mail y Seba te lo respondera.

Seba, I wish I’d gotten to know you better in person when I had the chance. However, I think I can safely say there are a few things other than your face that don’t change:

1. You still wear Kyle’s Grandville Soccer sweatshirt which, way back in 2005, somehow made me know that you were cool and that you and Kyle were in it for the long haul;

2. You are hilarious.

Okay, my questions. May be kind of lame and basic, but whatever. 1. What’s your favorite travel memory, and why? (You must pick one only!) 2. Describe the first week you spent in Florida. 3. What dog training tips can you offer?

Such a model in that B&W photo! I have no questions, sorry, but I think that just writing about weird gringa things Kyle does would be entertaining and good payback for all the stuff she’s written over the years about strange things Chileans do

Seba, you don’t look the same at all. You look much happier now that you are married to Kyle!

You haven’t changed much. I was going to ask why you never smile, then I remembered how NASTY Kyle was to you in that post. No wonder you don’t smile

Fab post, made me laugh lots. You’d make a great comedy duo!

I also have a particularly nerdy partner when it comes to these things. It’s nice to hear I am not alone. I though B was going to faint with excitement when he found that his favoruite military made, shock proof HDs now came in terrabite sizes.

And yes, you haven’t changed a bit. It’s Kyle that is the chameleon! The last photo was also very funny.

First–Yes, Seba, you look exactly the same. You will be perpetually 20!

Second–Glad to hear you guys have so many pictures archived because Nelson and I just went looking for the CD’s from our wedding, civil wedding, and boudoir session and realized we can’t find them. Oops. Can we get a copy of them when we’re in Chile in November??? Shoot me an email, plzzzz.

Besos.

Melissa: Si!! Voy a parecer eternamente de 20 aÃ±os. Xoxox…..

Kristy: I would pretty exited about shock proof HD too….that would be sper awesome.

Emily: Quizas podria escribir algunas cosas acerca de los gringos como ha hecho la Kyle de los chilenos, de hecho siempre me hincha acerca de lo mismo, pero no se por que aun no he encontrado alguna idea interesante que desarrollar al respecto, supongo que no soy un escritor muy creativo

El resto de las preguntas del server y RAid lo voy a poner en un post. Esa fue una de las ideas desechadas por la Kyle, pero ahora que se que hay mas Ã±oÃ±os out there como yo, lo voy a postear igual (sorry por el resto de gente normal)

Carrie. I am going to use your question to start my next post, and besides, i need to think about it for a long time

Well, you HAVE mentioned that you guys were like vampires. So yeah,that might explain things.

Seba, you’ll never have to worry about aging. That’s not a bad thing.

Hey, I’d be interested in reading about the Raid. Seba’s already posted on my wall about it. He really did his research (something my hubby also likes to do) and sounds like he made a great choice on the setup.

From what I can see the Raid topic seems to be popular around here.

Also, what gringa food do you wish you could get in Chile? I already know you like french fries. And is the beer a lot different? The beer was kind of weird in Ethiopia. I’m not sure what they’d make of American beer.
