Inspiration

well guys, I have a new inspiration for podcasting now. I have been quoted in a featured story at PBS's Newshour Site. "Podcasting Power for the People" quoted me several times concerning the teenage podcasting society. :-D Pretty cool, eh? :-P I reckon this means I better get back on the band-wagon and podcast-away. Look toward a Friday night podcast... ;-) I shall say no more.


Computer Talk:
My Debian file-server crashed over the weekend. :-( I needed a quick-fix, so I installed Mandrake 10.1 with a samba server. Pretty easygoing right? This hopefully won't be permanent, seeing as it didn't really fix anything. SWAT/Samba is pretty messed up (a thorn in my side, no doubt). I'll probably be switching to a gentoo server mainly because I know/love gentoo. Until then, all my music files will just sit on an unused Hard Drive. :-(

Ramblings

Well, I'm back with some more ramblings. I hope I haven't ruined my old crowd. :-P Although, I don't blame you for leaving. But hey, I actually have a full podcast now.

Q&A with Emmanuel Goldstein.

Hacking is, very simply, asking a lot of questions and refusing to stop asking. This is why computers are perfect for inquisitive people -- they don't tell you to shut up when you keep asking questions or inputting commands over and over and over. But hacking doesn't have to confine itself to computers. Anyone with an inquisitive mind, a sense of adventure and strong beliefs in free speech and the right to know most definitely has a bit of the hacker spirit in them.

Q&A with IBM's Charles Palmer.

Hacking is unauthorized use of computer and network resources. (The term "hacker" originally meant a very gifted programmer. In recent years though, with easier access to multiple systems, it now has negative implications.
