Distribution is not Murder with MCollective
I work as a Systems Administrator for a UK-based major music streaming website and we pride ourselves on our ability to grow efficiently and make extensive use of open-source tools and programs whenever possible.
We’re growing fast and although we haven’t reached the ceiling, some of the tools we used are tweaked versions of the ones developed when we had just a few servers. Knowing...

A Wisp of Contemplation: Why Christians... →
juniourr:
First, I’d like to point out that this is an examination as to how Christians cannot be homophobic, not Muslims, Jews or adherents to other religions. As well, I am not generalising all Christians nor all members of the LGBT community.
Secondly, all sources and quotes etc. are given their…

Speed Cameras Are Back On In Oxford →
I’ve been keeping my eye on this topic over the last few days as for the first 48 hours or so, nothing other than ‘deaths and serious injuries on the roads had increased’ had been released. However, an updated article from earlier on, just as the initial heat and interest around this started to die down suddenly shows a different picture:
Slight Injuries: 2009: 70; 2010: 55...

Disgusting: 'Victim' May Sue the Fire Service →
I saw this on TV while I was at the gym about a week ago and it just make me SO angry. Although I’ve calmed down a little since then, I still cannot believe the nerve of Babjide Osobu and feel compelled to write this.
As a quick overview: In September last year, a fit of jealousy caused someone to set light to a mid-level flat in a multi-story house. The intended target was away, but his...

Subversion Respoitory with Apache & PAM
As part of the building of my new server (and also something to bring together a number of different things I’ve been working on recently) I wanted something to provide a semi-backup alongside revision control, so should I delete something or make a mistake I can restore it from a previous point (whatever that may be).
I’ve looked into others, including Mecurial and Git, but...

Don’t like gay marriage? Don’t get one.
Don’t like abortions? Don’t get one.
Don’t like drugs? Don’t do them.
Don’t like sex? Don’t have it.

Don’t take anyone else’s.

Synergy Between Computers
I’m used to working with two screens, having had a multi-monitor setup for about two years now, but a few days ago I was given a nice SSD-based Mac Mini (although I say nice, it’s nothing about the OSX I’m forced to use) to do some testing and development work on.
Although that’s nice, having to swatch between mice and keyboards isn’t; I keep looking at the screen...

I’m not happy about this one bit. It may be a capitulation by our government as a Tory thank you for supporting them to a partial election victory, but I don’t believe it will have the effect anything think it will.
Sky News is a loss-making exercise, and Mr. Murdoch has already pledged a long-term subsidised contract to Sky News. Even if no-one from News Corp can be on the board, he...

Possible Anti-Gay Views from an Irish... →
I have no problems with free speech and the right for anyone to say anything they want, even if it greatly offends me; by the virtue of free speech it gives me the opportunity to comment back, now.
But there’s just one issue I have with this particular statement. “Gays shouldn’t marry … Marriage is about the family,” and in fact to quote Lucinda Creighton:...
