Bij mijn nieuwe hoster kost elke GB dataverkeer boven de standaard 15GB (I/O), 2 euro per GB. Aangezien het hosten goedkoop is, verplaats ik de downloads naar gratis aanbieders die geen datalimieten hebben. Het eerste slachtoffer is Microsoft's SkyDrive: 7GB voor nop. Daar kan ik heel wat kwijt en het biedt een public-folder die voor iedereen toegankelijk gemaakt kan worden. Dat heb ik dan ook gedaan.

Update 02-03-2018:
SkyDrive, Onedrive en Google Drive zijn wat mij betreft exit. Ik ben overgestapt naar Dropbox, en heb mijn Calibre bibliotheek daarin geplaatst. Dus ... ik heb alle oude links naar mijn gescande boeken vervangen door een shared Dropbox-link.

Alle zip's van de eerder gepubliceerde pockets waren op SkyDrive te vinden, samen met zip's van nog niet eerder gepubliceerde pockets.

Op dit moment vindt je via mijn Dropbox-links de onderstaande gedigitaliseerde boeken. Deze boeken zijn gewoon gescand, er is géén OCR gedaan, dus de ZIP's (CBZ is óók gewoon ZIP) bevatten enkel JPGs. Hoe je die kan lezen, beschrijft deze blogpost:

We finally got rid of our Compact Cassettes and digitized some of them. Most of the inlays have been lost during the years, but a few remained and to preserve the memory I use the inlays as Album Cover Art in iTunes. Have a look, maybe there is one among the few that you can use.

Roots

Last week I finally had the time to take care of a backup server and set up a database backup scheme. I chose to use the built-in MySQL replication tools since I do not have to replicate between different database brands. I described the steps it took to get everything up-and-running in 'Setup MySQL Replication'.

After Googling for a day I finally found everything I needed to get my Apple TV 1 (with no disk) working with a brand new Samsung HM160HC PATA disk. The whole process is described in 'New disk in Apple TV1'.

The Fence

Manuals for my E$-Modules and Functions for AS/400, iSeries or eServers are now online and searchable. I discovered a lot of typos and faulty descriptions in the old manuals, so the manuals included in the downloads have been removed. This way it is also easier to update them - and you can save them locally without my sidebar etc. by copying the contents and paste them into Pages or Word. Also, I added *SAVF files to the three major utilities still in use by me, which makes it installation on your iSeries a breeze.

I just edited the tag mv_timeMenu on tagSwap. Because copy/paste on tagSwap does something with line endings that makes much code end up all being on one line, I post the routine here too. Simply copy & paste.

/*

  <select name="xyz" class="abc" id="def">
  [mv_timeMenu(-fromHour=800, -toHour=2300, -minutes=25, -selected=$db_value]
  </select>

Glowing Cave

I created this poster on my iPhone 4 with the Phoster-app. The only post processing was to lighten it a bit, with Preview.

Using mind maps to follow your thoughts and track your findings is really a superb experience, every time again. And especially MindMeister, because it is 'in the cloud', i.e. web-based and can be accessed from anywhere and almost anything.

Every one of my personal projects goes into MindMeister if it involves more than just a few scribbles. In this mind map, I have noted all steps I must take, with all peculiarities that arise in the process, to transfer web sites and services from one server to another, in this case from a virtual CentOS server to a co-located MacMini Server from 2011. Mind you, the MacMini Server is no toy anymore - it is blazing fast!

I find this mind map quite interesting and since I am not the only one in the world doing stuff like this, I thought I'd share it so you, reader, might find the information in it somehow useful.
