Got a copy of this long out-of-print 7″ today. Pretty weird that it’s considered such a classic in the emo world. Hadn’t listened to it since probably ‘94, and forgotten how much it had its roots in the hardcore scene of the early 90’s. Pretty cool still, though. Here’s a copy of it for any one interested:
Hoover – Two Down
Lincoln – Bench Warmer

Air America Radio has gone live. Figure I give it a listen the next few days, and check out if it is any good. Should be interesting to hear Chuck D and Al Frankens shows. Of course now, I need to grab the Helix Real Player to listen to it.
From OSNews.com:
As there were no updates in xd-unstable for a long time now, some people started asking what’s going on. In a mail posted on the xd-testers list, Luis Villa of Ximian, announced that they are droping Red Hat/Fedora support and they are focusing on the product Novell is building around Ximian and SuSE.
Well, not too shocking of news, but it still kinda sucks. Unless Suse were to change dramatically, I really don’t have any interest in switching. Too bad, Ximian did some cool stuf to Gnome.

A few months ago “Governator Ale” was launched, complete with label featuring a cartoon of the former Mr Universe in a strongman pose. But Arnold Schwarzenegger’s attorneys took exception to this use of his image and production has now ceased, Portland Brewing Company has confirmed… BBC News
Nice to see I’m not the only one getting the occasional spam comment. Pretty damn annoying, but so far I haven’t had lot. I’ve held off on installing MT-Blacklist, since Movable Type 3.0 is coming out later this spring. One of the features of MT 3.0, is TypeKey which is a authentication system that should stop the spam comments that are plaguing a lot of blogs. Well, here’s hoping, that I don’t get a lot of spam between now and then.
Seems that a bunch of bloggers are organizing a free audio copy of Lawrence Lessig’s Free Culture. Looks like they’ve already recorded around half of the book already. Pretty cool. You can grab it here.
Ran across this website today. Dude, must have way too much time on his hands, to think this much about ‘Emo’. The sections on the different styles within the genre, and his favorite albums is sorta interesting, though. And on a side note, it appears the dude lives in Ken’s previous neck of the woods, down in Half-Moon Bay.
D’oh!
“The GNOME sysadmin team has just announced that the main GNOME web server has probably been intruded into, leading to the shutdown of the GNOME website, (including bugzilla.gnome.org, art.gnome.org and developer.gnome.org). The GNOME mailing lists, and CVS servers seem to be up, though the FTP server was immediately taken down as a precautionary measure (released sources are believed to be intact). This is bad, because GNOME 2.6 was supposed to be released tomorrow. Let’s hope it is a false alarm.”
How many open-source projects does that make, that have had their servers compromised in the last 12 months?
Their show in Lancaster, PA tonight will be broadcast live over the internet at Windmills Radio. The “preshow” will begin at 7pm Eastern time. Check it out.
