• The Web 2.0 Cease and Desist and Self Healing Systems

    Posted on May 25, 2006

    I need to post a pointer to the story about CMP sending a conference a C&D; letter on behalf of O’Reilly. I’m sure Tim has nothing to do with it, and I’m sure it’ll go away without much fuss in the end, probably just being throwoff of the corporate machine... [Read More]

  • George Bush Jr More Evil Than Cthulhu

    Posted on April 21, 2006

    Wow, folks really hate this George Bush Jr. guy. You would think he roamed around in the streets killing puppies and kicking children or something. I check out the stats for all my Ning apps on a daily basis. Cause I’m vain, no sense in trying to justify it with... [Read More]

  • More Jerry Taylor

    Some additional info about the politician who incorrectly threatened CentOS with FBI action. Gotta love this: [Read More]

  • High Availability NFS

    Posted on April 3, 2006

    I’ve tried out the high availability NFS solution detailed here and run into a few issues. It does provide a great way to get a higher degree of availability for one of the most problematic bits of infrastructure, so I don’t mean to crap on the idea as a whole.... [Read More]

  • More SMS.ac Turd Flinging

    Posted on March 29, 2006

    These SMS.ac folks just don’t know when to quit. I was chatting with Russ yesterday and this morning, and he was saying that the SMS.ac people are sending him takedown letters for non-libelous content on his blog because he’s ranked pretty high in the Google search results. I told him... [Read More]

  • Makes You Ponder

    Posted on March 28, 2006

    Some things make you think. Other things make you wonder if the world wouldn’t be a better place if public stonings were still in place. That’s my fucktard of the month right there. Ignorance I can forgive, not everyone has to understand the Interweb. But this goes well beyond that.... [Read More]

  • End of Line

    Posted on March 15, 2006

    I make Tron jokes pretty frequently. I mean, who doesn’t, right? It’s a total classic. But this right here, that’s just fantastic.

  • Kernel Config from Thinkpad X32

    Posted on March 13, 2006

    Someone emailed me asking for the config for the kernel I’m running on my X32, so I figured I might as well post it instead of just mailing it back. I’m using the 2.6.13 drop from kernel.org and adding in packages like WPA afterward. Here’s the config.

  • Sudden Wave of Spam

    Posted on March 9, 2006

    Starting yesterday I’ve seen a big upswing in the number of comments that make it through the Akismet plugin. I’m wondering if that’s just me, that I made it onto some new list? Or has someone out there figured out how to beat the filters? The top ones I’m seeing... [Read More]

  • Ghetto Fabulous

    Posted on March 8, 2006

    Holly pointed me at Go Ghetto today, and I just wanted to share. It’s like our Confess app, but more directed. Wish I thought of that! So jealous.
