So, in the last couple of weeks, I have had the following issues:

*   The CMOS battery dies on my file-server (a [FreeNAS](https://freenas.org) box), taking it, and the zpools down with it.  I fought over a long weekend to recover the data, and in the end, got it mounted read-only, and copied it off.  New hardware, and new zpools, and we seem to be going again. Recovering services is taking a bit of time.
*   There is a bug with the ZFS on Root for [Antergos Linux](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antergos).  Seems that it does not put all the kernel drivers in the init image when you upgrade.  Last time, I booted off the instal media to fix it.  I lost that USB stick, so I downloaded a new one.  Guess what?  They have turned that feature off ZFS, so there is no way to recover.  Since [FreeBSD](https://www.freebsd.org) still does not support suspend/resume on the Acer C720 that is my small travel laptop, I have to reinstall Antergos and reload my data.  Which I had to do because
*    My main laptop, the HP R810G1 seems to be having major battery issues.   I bought a new battery in Novembers, and it died.  I bought a new one a couple of weeks ago, and it at first did not seem to be holding a charge.  Now, the OS does not see the battery.  I think I might need a 'new' laptop.

I am torn between getting something one or two reves old with a solid record in the size I want (sub 13", under 1" thin, and good 6+ hours of battery) or the [latest shiny](https://store.hp.com/us/en/ContentView?storeId=10151&catalogId=10051&langId=-1&eSpotName=hpspectre&jumpid=cp_r163_us/en/pc_cons/nextgen/premiumlaptops/shopspectrelaptop).  

Other news, I have the ownCloud server upgraded to [nesxtcloud](https://nextcloud.com), and everything I have tried works out of the box, which is a lot more than I can say for ownCloud.  Last major thing I need to recover it the [Plex Server](https://plex.tv)!
