We turned off share.opml.org yesterday, for good, as far as I know. It was a good idea, but we never got it together to make it the powerhouse I wanted it to be.  Now that Google and Bloglines both have discovery mechanisms for feeds that you might like, based on what you and others like, there would only be a future for SYO if it were a thriving and growing community, and it isn't.  Normally, I'd leave a site like that running indefinitely, but this one needed its own server, and I wanted to cut my server expenses now that my S3 bill is going up, serving some very big JPEGs and generally being the back-end for a community that is growing, the people using FlickrFan. If there's a big demand to bring it back, we can -- but that's going to require cash flow to go with it. At this point, I don't think it's a good investment for me. Still diggin!

I see you all out there, smirking and revving your RAID controllers. "What could possibly replace RAID controllers?" you ask rhetorically. As if nothing could ever replace RAID -- ever.

Conky is an advanced, highly configurable system monitor for X based on torsmo   This is the next maintenance release for Conky, prompted by bugs introduced in 1.4.6.  Also notable is changes/clarifications made to licensing.  If you have any problems with the licensing changes (ie. someone got left out of AUTHORS) please let us know.  Summary of changes is as follows:      * Check for pkg-config >=0.19     * Use timed_thread for mpd     * Fixed issue with SIGPIPE and mpd     * Updated COPYING (with more clarifications)     * Updated vim/nano syntax files.     * Added $hwmon var, similar to $i2c and $platform.     * Added var $platform which is similar to $i2c and accommodates the conversion       of many devices from /sys/bus/i2c/devices to /sys/bus/platform/devices.     * Removed config item post_21_kernel since it forced all i2c device lookups       to go to /sys/bus/platform/devices and some people may need a mix of both         i2c and platform devices.     * Clarifying licensing     * RSS support     * Wireless support for Linux  Regards,  Brenden

Tycho:  I don't know whose fault it is exactly, mine or theirs, but I won't be installing Vista anytime soon.  I would like some crazy shit to happen when I minimize something don't get me wrong.  I want my windows to go Waja-wajow(!) is possible.  But if there's a great reason to "trade horses midstream" or whatever the going metaphor is I haven't discovered it.

OK, we had an extended breather from our last look at BIND's zone file pri.example.org. It's time to finish up and get a sense of what these records mean. To go off-topic a little, recently, I had the task of setting up two OpenLDAP servers and putting together a test environment for a project with several developers and several applications including some LAMP applications. Without a working knowledge of DNS, the project would have gone amuck.

I'm trying to discover why three out of three of my selected hard-disk recorders refuse to work on my Debian Etch (Demudi) system. Once again I ask myself the relevant questions: Is it me ? Is my computer trying to tell me something ? Is it something I said ? Whatever the reason(s), my reviews of those three programs must remain in limbo until I figure out what's wrong. The applications are all known to run perfectly well on other machines, so I'm sure there's an external problem. When testing new applications one must be prepared with the newest dependencies. CVS sources are often required. Sometimes one must mutter obscure invocations. Alas, I was not sufficiently prepared. Time for a radical shift.
