If you have never used it before, supervisor is an application that runs on your server to monitor a number of different applications. With supervisord, you get all of the benefits of turning long-running applications into daemons without all the extra code required to make that happen natively. The configuration for supervisord is extremely flexible, […]

Well, I finally got all (but one…) of the parts of my new computer. My new case, the Cooler Master COSMOS “S” is in one word: absolutely awesome. I love the fact that all of the drives can be pushed in, and with one press of a button, the drive will lock in. This comes […]

At Digital Pacific, where I work, I do all my work on three computers. It’s a nice life looking at three monitors all the time, however, it is not the coolest thing in the world when you have three keyboards in front of you. When I moved here, I already knew about Synergy, it’s great […]

Ever since I have started using KDE with Linux/FreeBSD as my desktop replacing Windows, there has been just one thing that has really annoyed me about both of these desktops, and that is using Kodak cameras. Yes – I know, such a simple device, but you will be amazed at how many headaches it used […]

My development environment is CentOS 5. Running a library that is two and a half years old really sucks on a new Linux box, especially because I had to install three compat libraries. The software is called “webpay”, and the actual library itself is distributed as a binary library; which would be alright apart from […]

Stallman is a hacker and software freedom activist. He wished to create a free operating system called GNU (which is a recursive acronym for GNU’s Not Unix). Stallman […]

I am disappointed,as a user of both Linux *and* After Effects that After Effects refuses to run on Linux. Let’s face it; After Effects, and other applications in the Creative Suite are the most requested applications to be supported by Adobe on Linux. With a growing market share, and many companies putting in quite a […]

The new version of MyBanco will be out within the next few hours, boasting a few new handy features, such as: An installer, which will insert the SQL dump into MySQL automatically. A few minor bugs fixed. Patches for SMF to enable the ability for people people to gain money for posting on a forum. […]

No! When I Xen, I am not talking about a relationship to foreign material. Well, that is – not exactly. Xen is an open source hypervisor. Think: VMware, but much, much cooler. I was talking to Tim Post, about a project that I was completing for ShareSource2. Basically, the conversation came to the point where […]
