Yeah that is pretty classic JWZ... well except he didn?t say something anatomically impossible. I think he may have mellowed a bit. I will see if the EPEL version can be updated.

This mister JWZ just blogged and tweeted loudly about it, and it looks like he hates CentOS as much as he hates Debian. Coming from a guy whose blog looks like a russian porn site from around 1...

I do use metadate since i need people to see the titles. I use livecast in mixer mode. The chopping starts right away I don't use VBR (I commented it out at least). The mp3's are made with XING audiocatalyst (for windows) so I don't really know. Sorry.

I tested jwz's 1.3.10 server yesterday. metadata doesn't work fine.. it works for longer periods than it did before.. but if I have it on, it invariably starts goofing up the stream and I get a sound somewhat like a train wreck out of my speakers. I had to switch back to sc because of this.. email...

Hi, I'm currently moving all our local school's desktop clients from Slackware 14.1 to CentOS 7 + Xfce. Right now I'm fine-tuning the default user profile. I have a problem with XScreenSaver. The application per se works very well. Only there's a hard-coded pop-up window that reminds the user that he's not running the latest version. So, if I'm running version 5.36 as

...r is locking out a user and it does not then that is security related 3. The way X works is that every X application can listen to all mouse and keyboard actions. This also has a security context. For many sites, any of these make Xscreensaver into a high security item. It makes perfect sense from jwz's point of view because several times something 'simple' in an xscreensaver code has turned into a meltdown somewhere. And the fact that people email him before emailing the EPEL maintainer or opening a bugzilla about it says his time is better served saying "not my problem mate.&q...

I decided to make a few shell scripts that can be used to connect to icecast, decode/reencode a stream, and then send the result back to icecast. I guess this can be done with liveice, but this seemed like a simpler solution for my needs. I have it triggered by a cgi script that i click on when at work and want to listen to my tunes at a lower, more reliable bitrate. There are basically

As a user of only R, I don't use much of the potential of ESS and Emacs. Without entering a religious feud, is there any reason I should use XEmacs rather than my current GNU Emacs? (I looked on the XEmacs site, but I didn't understand the programming issues they were talking about (over my head).) Martin Henry H.

Last year I arranged with my college radio station and ITS department to webcast the radiostation using icecast. The webcast has been a wonderful success so far. My problem now is not technical, but political. A few days ago I recieved the following message from the station director: ================================================================== hey josh, i talked to [faculty advisor]

Maintain my own up-to-date version of XScreenSaver in my private repo. I think you can use the --no-splash switch. https://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/man1.html There's probably also a config setting in .xscreensaver. But it was probably worth seeking a patch just to get that classic response. ;-) --keith -- kkeller at wombat.san-francisco.ca.us
