Leopard Server + Blog

Posted by BM5k on April 13, 2008 at 07:48 AM

Man, I am getting warmed up to Leopard Server quick. Although I don’t think I’ll be replacing Simplelog just yet, the ability to use 3rd party apps to interface with the built-in blog system makes it that much more attractive.

From the Server’s help page:

To access your blog, use an applicatioin that works with the Metaweblog API. Use the following information to configure the editor:

RPC Access Point: http://serverDNSname/RPC2
Username or Blog ID: Your user name or the name of your group

Warehouse + Leopard Server

Posted by BM5k on April 13, 2008 at 04:03 AM

I’ve managed to get SVN & Warehouse somewhat up and running on my server, and now that he’s online, I’m trying to get everything 100%.

Right now, I’m testing the following post-commit hook in one of my repositories to see if it works. The directory names have been changed to match my server, but otherwise this is just the basic suggestion from the Warehouse FAQ.

#!/bin/sh
cd /Library/WebServer/Rails/warehouse-1.1.6
/usr/bin/rake warehouse:post_commit \
RAILS_ENV=production \
REPO_PATH=$1 \
REVISION=$2

More Classic Gaming

My $50 gift card for being a sucker HD-DVD early adopter came from Best Buy the other day, and I stopped in this evening to blow it. Being the wonderful husband that I am, I got a pre-paid xbox live card for Shay (who still hasn’t ever gotten around to subscribing herself), and bought some Wii Points.

So far, I’ve only downloaded 2 games from the VC: Paper Mario [N64] and Battle Lode Runner [Turbografx]. I spent my some of my new points on another Turbografx game, Double Dungeons.

I’ve created a simple wishlist of (mostly VC) games on my tadalist page, click here to see for yourself.

Battle Lode Runner:

Read the rest to see Double Dungeons in action!

Another NES Acquisiton

Another Bookman’s find, King’s Knight was a whopping $10, including dust cover.

NES: Solstice

Snagged this game @bookmans today for $8. In the box. With the manual. Not a bad find at all, especially combined with the fist full of NES cartridge sleeves that we scooped out of the free box. I only need 7 more sleeves and all my games will be covered!

Seriously.

Gunna snag me a copy of Glider when it’s available. Lookin at Airball too! Man, I am a sucker for old school video games!

Mario Paint FTW

I don’t know what’s worse: that these songs are playable in Mario Paint, or that someone took the time to compose them in Mario Paint. Either way, this is some major geekiness!

Rollover, play dead.

I’m up to 2,639 roll over minutes. That’s on a shared plan (2 iPhones)…
