Its been a while since I have posted something so here is a nice bit of advice that everything could use from time to time. Keep up the good fight!

World Cup

The theory of competition states, just because they’re the strong, doesn’t mean they can’t get their asses kicked!

SSH Timeouts

Do you work in an environment where you bounce through a bunch of firewalls? Do you hang out on idle ssh connections that often times get dropped after a certain amount of idle time? I do and it has always annoyed me. To the point that once I connect to a box that I will be coming back to, I will run top and move on. Well, not anymore. You can set your SSH client to automatically send a bit of data over your connection every X seconds. Here is how it is done for Mac and Linux boxes.

Glee

I’ll fully admit, I may be one of the few people that doesn’t watch Glee. I may catch clips from time to time, but never on a regular basis.

So with that baseline set…here’s something that I’ve noticed recently. iTunes has definitely started pushing more of the cast albums at me in their weekly “what’s new” marketing emails. Here’s the thing about the Glee cast versions of songs…when listening to the sample track, it doesn’t get me to buy the song. Instead, it makes me search to find the original song because their cover reminds me of how awesome the original version was.
