Swiftfox, why are’t we good nerds anymore?
So the past few weeks have seen me getting more and more frustrated with the performance lockups in Feisty. As a developer who’s been running it for several months now, I can say I’m very tolerant and never upset, just try my best to help, mostly by just finding my own solution. So cruft and [...]
Bittorrent Software on Linux: Part 2
A follow up to my earlier post. In my post last week I complained about how linux had no real torrent client that could go toe to toe with utorrent. Over the last week or so, I have been trying to follow up on all the awesome comments and suggestions that I got from readers. [...]
Lame Blog Linking Help
Miguel de Icaza has asked for some simple link help in getting Lame Blog some better Google results. I dunno if this helps at all, I don’t have a great Page Rank (I think its a 4 at the moment) so maybe its hurting, but the planets I get syndicated to do way better, so [...]
New Theme, OpenID, and Sorry if I Spammed
Hey, so the 10 of you that actually visit my blog and don’t read it through a planet, you may have noticed me having some fun today. I decided that my blog was going to support OpenID, despite my hosting provider not having the needed math libraries, so my apologies if logins aren’t as speedy [...]
Its Always the Little Things
I love Linux, I use it all the time, my windows partition is constantly being ntfsresize’d to make room for some new (and completely pointless) project. So please believe me when I say, I mean no offense to anyone who has worked on a project I might cite here, its just me venting a general [...]
Planet Beagle Random Icon Link Thinger
Hey, So I felt like giving Planet Beagle some random-junk-on-the-side-of-my-blog love, so this little guy was created, make of him what you will, but know I’m no artist. However, a small problem, we have no SVG’s or any other source-type format of the new Beagle Logo, we still ship the old one in our tarball, [...]
Google Docs as a Blog Editor
Google Docs as a Blog Editor As a user of writely.com far before that whole Google purchase, I was tentative about the move, but also excited (as Google generally seems to have the whole Web-App thing down cold.) during the general crazy nature of school and a wireless card that had horrible linux support until [...]
Mirrors are Awesome
Ok, so as many of you know, I run Ubuntu on my laptop, and generally like to lend a helping hand wherever its appropriate when working on/with Ubuntu. With the latest release of herd-5, I realized the Feisty release is not far away. I happen to have a hosting plan with quite a bit of [...]
General Beagle Busyness
Hey, so I’ve been pretty busy (again! *Shock* ) with school and haven’t had a ton of hacking time as of late. I’ve learned this means definatly pick jobs that don’t require a lot of follow up or that someone else is waiting on. Anyways, I had some beagle-fun last night and was somewhat productive. [...]
