Episode 130 – Pooping Your Way to Cleanliness

Pickled Okra

In this episode:

  • We start out talking about Charles’ “cleansing” efforts, which sound terrible if you like food, but he’s down for it.
  • I then tell Charles about how I like FriendFeed a lot now-a-days. As I say in the podcast, you guys should join and link up with me so I can get more content to read.
  • Charles then talks about how dealing with ruby and Java deployments is annoying and we wonder out-loud about how easy it is to deal with PHP installs – which is probably debatable given crap you’ve had the deal yourself.
  • I then detail how a little jaunt to iUseThis.com stuck me a desktop optimization rut, esp. after I found AppFresh.

  • Finally, we learn that Charles is selling one of his iMacs and – shocker! – probably going to get a ThinkPad.

Thanks to John Arley Burns for sending over the Starcontrol sounds.

  1. This whole podcast thing is just giving you guys a false sense of fulfillment.

    A quart of saltwater? Isn’t that going to make you insane?

    People get pissed if services are up less than 3 nines (99.9%) or 4 nines for something you pay for (99.99%). Five nines is what telcos generally aim for in service provision.

  2. A fascinating dive into the bowels of… nah let’s not go there :)

    Anyhoo Charles, you should totally consider getting an Asus Eeee PC to bring on your travels. The performance and screen size blows, but it’s far cheaper and lighter than the macbook. And it has some kind of linux preinstalled. I think.
