One of *the* coolest things in the ever colliding worlds of Asterisk and Ruby: Adhearsion

Though I do love OSWD, I keep going back to freecsstemplates.org for really good looking stuff. Take a look.

I just recently upgraded my MythTV to Knoppmyth R5E50 (MythTV .20+) and added a new 200GB drive. Here’s a few tips for the road:

- That USB remote (RC6) that came with your PVR-150 MCE not working? All you need is a new lircd.conf and an updated .lircrc

- DigestAuth seems broken all the way around for securing MythWeb… go for BasicAuth

- MythBrowser already has flash installed! YouTube from the couch!

I just ran across an alternative to Pound / Pen for Mongrel balancing…

Just registered for the Mountain West Ruby Conference to be held back in SLC, UT in March. See you there.

Apple iPhone: Will it run Ruby? Leopard will have it

Once again I’ve falled in love my MythTV. I’ve been running it for about 5 months solid now. no reboots, or big issues to deal with. A few recent tweaks: Added my ROM collection over a remote share for MythGame. New favorite mythtv theme: blootube. I transcode any new recordings to XviD (with commercial skip) and then move them to my NAS video share for future viewing.

Recent change of heart: Fav Desktop OS -> OSX. Still really love Ubuntu for servers, etc.

This time of year I love living in Arizona. Did you get snow recently? Gee… that’s too bad. I think we’re looking at 68 today. LOL!
