Hmmm... I'm not up on trademark law or any law for that matter but I have had the domain for a good 8 years now and the show has been going for almost 4. Could they come in and trademark the name and thus force us to change if we have that documented history? Yes, they could. Many years ago I worke...

Linc - Wireless Bridge

Saw your blog, thought I'd offer a solution. CompUSA sells a Zyzel (PW-330 I think) router every couple of weeks on sale for $8-$15 after rebates. They can be set up as a wireless client to your main router then you have four ports at that station. It performs as a 'poor man's bridge' as one friend ...

Re: Why is Dell hiding the Ubuntu Notebooks?

Hey Dell, why don't make that Ubuntu page unsearchable? That way people would have to direct navigate to the page by word of mouth. Then maybe you can sell even less. I just went to dell.com and was greeted with the Ubuntu logo on the computer screen and "By popular demand. Ubuntu has arrived" in b...

I've been using David Allen's principles for quite a while now. It works great with just slight tweaking as I have a job that requires some reaction time in my typical days. Where the DA principles help is the fact that my basic day structures are outlined with routine tasks, meetings, etc. Then whe...

The mp3 version is crippled the OGG version has more content. This will mantain the number of listeners but will reward the one that choose OGG. It depends on what the content is honestly. I know that for me, listening to the MP3 has given me all that I need of the show. Whatever the bonus content ...

Re: Join the Play OGG campaing

So they just started this campaing which I think is a good idea. TLLTS being the premier linux podcast out there should join this campaing just like LinuxReality has. Joining the campaign is the easy bit. Acting on it is another. As a listener, I chose my formats depending on the device capability....

That is a worthy goal to just sit in the corner and serve. To get to that goal I am going to have to tinker. I sincerely doubt that folks whom have set up their first server didn't have to tinker. I was just asking for ideas of things to serve. I have gotten some ideas. Some very good ideas. I have...

Well depending on what you believe, Scientology is just as valid as any other religion out there.

Whatever helps you sleep at night is the right religion for you.

I am really looking for ideas of things I can do with my server. I need something to tinker with or it will just sit in the corner and serve music. If that happens I won't learn anything and that is not what I want, I want to learn. I have to say, if you want to learn you have to have a goal in min...

Congratulations, I'm impressed that your wife did it without painkillers, too. I'm too big a wuss to handle that kind of pain. Bah, the pain is just a conspiracy that the women folk have used through the ages to gain pity and compassion from the men. The 'painkillers' are just a bonus of that devio...

People have been put to death on less evidence, especially in California. Remember, jury are comprised primarily of those who were too stupid to get out of jury duty. Or it's comprised of people who believe that the system works if people participate. It's the negative attitudes like yours and thos...
