One of my Fedora feeds had an announcement of the Rawhide version of a nifty little utility called rpl. Here’s its help screen:
Usage: rpl [options] old_string new_string target_file(s)
Options:
–version show program’s version number and exit
-h, –help show this [...]
I’ve griped and groused here on this old blog, and back in my days with the Twitter, about my need to consolidate all my RSS and Atom feeds under one roof, preferably a web-based one.
I tried Gregarius, as detailed here. And it was cool. I was hosting my own feeds. Problem was, I found [...]
I’ve not posted the results of an online quiz in quite a while. I like this one very much.
Still waiting to take this one, which remains to this day the funniest thing I’ve ever encountered on the internets.

After a long layoff from the unfriendly skies, I’m airborne again later this month. Destination: Boston.
This time for a geek extravaganza.
First and foremost, the Fourth Annual Red Hat Summit will be taking place. There is so much on the agenda for this that I’m having a hard time choosing which sessions [...]

The MacMini, the tinman, took the place of our production iMac here at tbbs world HQ an hour or so ago. In tin’s first official act, he transmitted the AmEx payment.
A fitting shakedown for a new machine. Whisper quiet. The overpriced Apple monitor is great, with its firewire/USB hub all built in. I didn’t [...]
For a while now, I’ve been bemoaning the state of my feed readers.Not that they don’t work, but that I have a different reader on each computer I own. I have NetNewsWire on the Mac, Sage on one laptop, RSSOwl on another machine. Each with its own set of feeds.There’s a huge duplication of feeds [...]

I managed to get the libprs500 software suite working on the laptop today.
This is going to be a good thing. There’s a Linux command line utility, prs500, which enables you to remove files from the SD card and/or the Sony internal memory. There are some jpegs and mp3s in the internal memory, these came with [...]
