On: The Petition to Classify Wikipedia a "World Wonder"

Maybe a new Wonders list is needed...the Seven Wonders of the Digital World? ;o)

I nominate Debian

pfft ..OpenBSD

Butttorrent

On: P2P Not Dead, Just Hiding

I usually get butttorrent after a night of hard-drinking and Taco Bell. I wasnt aware of the dedicated trackers.

Nuts And Volts

Lots of DIY stuff here.

She wasn't called Lovey for nothing.

King of Dos

On: 486 Turns 15 Years Old

Forget the King of Dos. Having that harddrive, you would have been the King of file storage!

Six Degrees of Richard Feynman

I've been trying a similar experiment but all tests seem to end at the fifth hop.

NPBOT

I figure its NPBot or a variant. This one used to show up in the log files every now and then. Hit the link for the user agent info.

Re:OpenBSD is your friend

On: Wireless APs in Homebrew Coffee Shops?

I don't want to sound pissy, but one guy setting up coffeehouse WiFi isn't the same as Enterprise level admin of linux or BSD servers.

Imagine setting up 20 to 50 of these wireless gateways based on *BSD and then having to run cvs && make obj && make build && mergemaster,etcupdate on each one instead of just apt-get update && apt-get upgrade.

50 wireless gateways=one hella large coffee shop and under FreeBSD, if I can't remember make installworld, make buildworld. I shouldn't even try to run a coffee shop of this magnitude.

He's probably cheap, like me. Waiting 6 months to get both for the price of one new game. The exception for myself was that I did pre-order FFX-2. I think it is worth the full price.

Bossa Nova

I highly recommend Verves Compact Jazz -Astruid Gilberto. Any recordings of Stan Getz/Joao Gilberto are definite musts for your collection.

TV w/o TIVO Sucks

Amen to that last statement. After several hacks to Tivo-Tivoweb-Turbonet-etc.. I find it almost impossible to watch television the old way.

Re:Reaction?

On: Hacking the Streamium

I think Phillips will be quite pleased with this news. I don't see the huge demand for the Streamium at this point. What a better way to boost sales for a marginal seller. Look what Hack-ability has done for another of their Products, Tivo. I Know I Wouldn't have bought one if I knew I couldn't hack at it.

Any Brewery

On: Factory/Plant Tours - Where Would You Go?

I suggest going on any brewery tour you can find. I've been on four of them. All of them being fun and informitive. You will never forget the smell and you can't beat free beer. Here are some links to breweries.

Superjew

On: Going Through the Garbage

Fuck all this talk about dumpster-diving. I want to know about Superjew. Is he an anti-semite or kosher to the extreme?
