Sidestep
A wonderful little tool that will automatically open a SOCKS5 proxy and route all your web traffic through it when it detects you're on a unsecured wifi connection. Great for travel.

So @designtramp hasn't had a chance to build his chair yet. Wonder what he'll think of this cleverness

10.6: Add NFS Mounts using Disk Utility – Mac OS X Hints
The weird trick that worked for me was to use the 'resvport' option when mounting the NFS share from OSX. Weird because the mount was exported using insecure, but adding resvport worked nonetheless.

SqueezeCenter + Hardy

I upgraded my Ubuntu boxes to 8.04 last night and ran into but one issue: my SlimServer (now SqueezeCenter) would not start. Apparently I’m not the only one with this problem, and solution for now is to jam some more lines into your /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld 

/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/ r,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/my.cnf r,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/mysql.startup rw,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/mysql-error-log.txt rw,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/squeezecenter-mysql.pid w,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/squeezecenter-mysql.sock w,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/MySQL/ r,
/var/lib/squeezecenter/cache/MySQL/** rwk,

According to the bug report, the installer is fixed in trunk, so with the next release (7.0.1?) this won’t be an issue.

Congrats to the Ubuntu guys for such a seamless upgrade! It was really smooth.
