updates, p2p revolution, bittorrent, padres

Woke up this morning to my datacenter calling me telling me they were watching my power circuit melting. Cool. So I had to go to the datacenter (my favorite place), power down 5 customers boxes (some 15), switch to a different circuit, and bring the machines back up. Of course, Murphy being the bitch he is, the one box that won’t power on is the zeropaid web server. Sweet. Finally got it to go, no idea whats wrong. Super. Had a few lingering issues but nothing serious.

Did an interview yesterday with Rick from P2P Revolution. Grab the torrent here. To use that link, grab a bittorrent client here. Long interview, I sound like a dork. Go figure.

Speaking of BitTorrent, they had a BUSY news week. They released trackerless torrents, teased a new search engine, released said search engine, and caused a huge scene. In case you have been living under a rock, EliteTorrents.org was taken down by the FBI, Dept of Homeland Security, and ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) under the prodding of the MPAA. Seems they thought bittorrent was biting into Star Wars. (side note: at least someone thinks this was a waste of government resources. Or at least maybe have the agencies do SOMETHING related to the name of the agency in question)

Now I haven’t downloaded star wars III: revenge of the sith from the internet. I have, however, gone to see it in theaters. And I am going to see it again. I think anyone who wants to see this movie and doesn’t go see it in the theater is cheating themselves, not George Lucas. That movie is awesome. Here’s hoping it gets out in HD DVD.

Oh yeah, and the Padres are .5 games back in the NL West, and playing #1 AZ Diamondbacks tonight. Let’s go pads!!!
