Why I shop Google Music
I like buying music. I bought a lot of CDs and contrary to some people I have a wad of CDs. Nothing out of the usual though, a few shelves.

Quick GlusterFS Raspberry Pi money math
I did a quick bit of math, considering replacing my current latest Gluster brick with RaspberryPi bricks. I’m taking 125€ a disk for the HDs, as the actual price doesnt matter that much here.

Newznab – Adentures in indexing
With the recent closing of Newzbin and then a few days later NZBMatrix, the heat is obviously on for Usenet indexers.

Gnome Shell Animated Background
The support for animated backgrounds in Gnome is not new, but the path to actually rolling your own and activating it on your system is all but easy today. Ubuntu offers 2 magically changing backgrounds but no information about how to do this yourself. There is a cute “+” button that allows you to addContinue reading “Gnome Shell Animated Background”
A script to commit all the GIT projects in a map
I keep all the documents, code and whatnot for DGTL in several git repositories and synchronise those to secret remote locations (cool ey.) But its a hassle to update them all and why keep manually doing mundane tasks when you can replace it with a small (recursive) bash script 🙂 So I did.
