The end of the end 1 Jan 2013 | 02:00 am
I suppose the secret is out; a desktop image was leaked a week or two ago into the Unix screenshot area of reddit. That can mean only one thing: Yes, I’ve been answering e-mails and concocting some lo...
The elephant in the room: A coda 3 Oct 2011 | 01:38 pm
Before I even get started, before I deliver the unhappy news, I should say first and foremost “thank you,” to everyone who left notes or sent e-mails over the past four months. There were a lot more ...
Hiatus 3 Jun 2011 | 02:24 pm
As I have mentioned in the past, my real-life responsibilities include some middle-management tasks. Quite glamorous. Unfortunately, as they did last month, those responsibilities became more time-co...
Hey, Ridley, ya got any bmon? 31 May 2011 | 01:22 am
Time for another quick look at the wonderful world of console applications. This is bmon, and it would be easy to dismiss this as yet another network monitor for the console. But actually, I like it ...
My Green Fedora 30 May 2011 | 01:16 am
It’s a tiny bit ironic that a day after I harass high-end distros for possibly lowering the bar too much, I show a screenshot of Fedora 15. I can’t explain why, but I was actually a little bit excite...

Less than successful: mc as a daemon 24 May 2011 | 10:15 am
Sometimes I try things that sound good while they’re bouncing around in my brain, but after they’re done, I wonder why I bothered. A long time ago, someone posted a method for trapping rtorrent in sc...
Quick note: goosh.org 24 May 2011 | 01:32 am
Time is short today, but I feel like I should leave an equally short note by mentioning goosh.org. It’s hard for me to frame exactly what goosh.org is, except maybe to point out that “goosh” break...
Another gray area: Ascii Sector 22 May 2011 | 10:42 am
Speaking of gray areas, I never know whether I should jump for joy or just raise a minor ruckus when I find a game that runs in textmode under SDL. Dwarf Fortress is one example, although Dwarf Fortr...
