So do you not want my business or what?

Oh, and obviously, Java totally sucks.

Update: Apparently in Lenovo-speak “Save Cart” means “Empty Cart.” Jerks.

Welcome to the unix ghetto.  This is the place where ubiquitous and yet oddly crappy programs like rsync live.  A program that, when operating as an rsync daemon, and despite have a way to run in the foreground (–no-detach), has no way to log to standard out or standard error.

Hey guys, if I’m running this shit in the foreground I probably want to see the output on my console.

I mean, is that really such a surprising request? (Answer: No and no)

Maybe I’ll send over a simple patch to fix the non-sensical logic in clientserver.c since they did indicate that they might accept a short patch for log = -.

Web applications with downtime are like the new BSOD.  Mind-numingly frustrating and totally hopeless.  If I am paying you $50/month, you’d have better be reliable.

I’m talking to you DabbleDB.

We get it.  It was funny.  It’s over now.  You can stop.
