CURRY.COM - Adam Curry
There are no secrets, Only information you don't yet have
[this post has been updated] Updated my rss feed to reflect curry.com as the home page profile url
This may affect readers, maybe you will get a full archive of all the posts in my feed, not sure. The individual posts still point to adam.smallpict.com
I don't think there is a way to change that.
I'm ok with that, just don't like using resources I'm not paying for.
Hmm, the changes didn't work. In my feed I'm still getting the following channel settings:
http://adam.smallpict.com/
This outline is used as identity for Adam Curry, who's url lives at http://adam.smallpict.com
I also appear to be using Fargo1.3 still??
Maybe version 1.4 will fix this
I option-reloaded in chrome on OSX and now have version 1.04
Testing the fixes...
Again
And it worked.

I made a mistake in the initial setup of my Fargo to S3 system. I was using the default settings which meant all disqus comments were using a group name not belonging to me.
I've changed this
Unfortunately any existing comments got nuked in the process :-(
And so it goes...
The deeper I delve into Fargo, the better it gets. I can totally bring back the original comments for selected posts.
This is some groovy shit.
During our European vacation, something broke on my mail server that I've been running from home for the past 3 years.
The server is a mac mini running OSX Server. Setup was a breeze and it's been performing with little to no maintenance all this time.
Of course breakage occurs when you're thousands of miles away. [Thanks Murphy]
The problem is a drive that is on the verge of failing and I will have to get a replacement to ensure the server's integrity
I took advantage of the opportunity to install an interim fix by building a linux server running CentOS and the iRedmail package
iRedmail is free and is pretty easy to install if you have at least some familiarity with a command line.
The installation really isn't much more than copying a couple commands that are listed on the install page
After creating the required mx record on my curry.com dns, emails started flowing and I'm testing a combination of the IMAP server and web client, which is the Roundcube software. Its pretty spiffy, especially compared to squirrel mail that I've been using to date and is a part of the OSX Server package
I'm especially impressed with the grey/white/black listing capabilities of iRedmail. So far it's really doing a good job, and I will post my findings again in a few days.
Got Eric's script. Trying it out
Last night upon landing at Austin's Bergstrom airport from Atlanta (we flew from Amsterdam to Atlanta first), as we taxied from the runway, the captain came on the intercom and asked all passengers to wait a few moments before disembarking to allow for the honor guard accompanying a "fallen soldier" to disembark first.
Immediately I understood why I had seen flashing lights on the apron as we approached to land, two fire trucks created a water arch for the aircraft to pass through on its way to the gate, and on the tarmac was a full honor guard, hearse, military personnel and the soldier's family.
Though most passengers waited as requested and then disembarked, I could not leave my seat. I felt that not watching the entire proceeding would somehow be wrong, dishonorable.
As the cargo door opened, I saw at least one female member of the family collapse in agony.
I know that this is an occurrence that happens almost daily still at airports across the country, yet it is never televised, as the flag draped coffins during the Vietnam war most definitely were.
I tried googling for more information, but even several searches result in nothing informational
Maybe if we put these scenes back on primetime TV, citizens would pay more attention to what is really going on with these illegal wars and the propagandistic way in which they are reported on by the compromised media.
No wonder newspapers are selling for pennies on the dollar.
People are figuring out how full of shit they really are.
I've now boiled my update scripts down to 2 mirror scripts that I need to run. Still another level of abstraction needed, but right now I just provide the url of the new post in my smallpict blog and that file is mirrored to the s3 bucket, as is the home page and rss file.
This post is the first test.
I've been thinking about how to move my new posts created with Fargo over to blog.curry.com, which is static files, hosted on Amazon S3.
The main objective is to preserve all previous posts that have been created at blog.curry.com through the scripting2 tool in the opml editor.
After ample research, I decided to use wget and s3cmd to mirror the adam.smallpict.com site to blog.curry.com
Here's a script that I used in a slight modified form to make it work
This works nicely, since the folder structure of yyy/mm/dd remains the same and so nothing pre-existing got 'clobbered'
So now after publishing a post, I trigger the 'updateblog' script, and all new files and the feed file (rss.xml) are updated.
I"m realizing this isn't the most efficient way to do this, and am investigating how to tweak the scripts to only transfer files that have changed since last update.
