I can ping it fine.
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks. Rebooting my Router had not worked so I assumed a real problem with the site. But I got out the screwdriver and did a hard reset to defaults and reprogrammed it from scratch and now it is working fine. But probably not a great sign.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I have a Unix question that I cannot find the fucking answer to despite my google-fu.
I need to log unix commands. I just want to start a logfile and have it record all the commands I enter (with corresponding responses back).
How do I do this? I can find commands on log mathematical functions, but not how to create and save a logfile.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
From Matt:
script will capture commands.
If you run script and tee the output into the same file using append (>>) and redirecting using 2>&1, that might also work.

So I had two iPods die in two days. I'm hoping Apple will upgrade the amount of memory in the iPod Touch, so in the meantime I bought an iPod Nano. This has the pedometer, and it keeps asking me if I want to send my pedometer results to Nike. Has anyone tried this? Is Nike all privacy-invasive and sending a billion emails a day? or are they all mellow with your footstep info?

I do the Nike+ thing and haven't gotten a lot of spam from it, I don't think. I'm pretty sure I even checked the "send me offers and whatnot" box and the official Nike e-mails are just occasional and actually informative.
Do you not have to put a sensor in your shoe, now? I bought my new Nano just a little too early, it seems.

I think I still can, but it works without it. (So I'm not sure what the advantage to the sensor is.)

That's pretty sweet. I almost wish I didn't know that.
