My work week’s favorite podcasts

Jobacle – Helps relaxe you in your job, but helps you keep a level on head on self respect, no more working on your knees for little pay. you don’t have to take it. Jobacle can help.. oh yeah and the occassional favorite song from indies, excelent. MAKE WORK BETTER

Slashdot review – This week was a bit messed up though. The feed died out and showed the same stuff as last week.  On the spot steady fire of tech news. Usually informative enough to be plenty for you, but you can always google it and read about it when you get home. by then it will be out in the main wild. you will hear stuff here a day ahead, sometimes a month.

The linux action show – These dudes are fun to listen to. I have some of the people in the office saying  “ON THE LINUX ACTIiioON   SHOWWWWWW” just like the dudes on the podcast, as they walk past me. Funny stuff.

The tech guy – Excelent show, nothing could make it better than just leo sittingthere breaking news to the main stream tech community and helping by answering their questions or giving them a usefull link to somewhere usefull.

See every day I listen to these guys, some times I mix it up and listen to a whole other batch of rss feeds. but these guys I have at the top of my list of feeds. I have to hear them as soon as they come out. It beat sitting around listening to the same  15 songs all week on public radio. I hate when I listen to a fricken song  that I do not like, and find myself singing along like 2 months later. Feel like I’m being brained.

So I come to talk internet media  AKA “NEW Media”. This stuf is really good talent and great media..

If you have a work computer with speakers, you might want to look into rss feed media. wild how you get graduated into a higher level of apreciation.

How Safe Is Mobile Internet?

From Whistle Blowers:

“A U.S. government office in Quantico, Virginia, has direct, high-speed access to a major wireless carrier’s systems, exposing customers’ voice calls, data packets and physical movements to uncontrolled surveillance, according to a computer security consultant who says he worked for the carrier in late 2003.”

Verizon has a finger pointed at it.

This information I got from Slashdot Review.

Of course, I followed up with a search in Google.

Doesn’t sound good and doesn’t sound like a right to privacy.

The part that gets me the most is the government’s ability to track you. Then again, it has been able to track your cell phone for years. Maybe, this will just get swept under the carpet, forgotten, and/or never mentioned again. I’m assuming we will hear nothing of this again.

Kevin And Alex Set Women Right

I am sure we have all come into this situation, well I know I have at least five times in the past ten years.

The current girlfriend walks in while you are booting up the game that you have been wanting to play all week. This is your first day off in a week and you have been wanting to play this game, you have set today aside for this game. The girlfriend when she walks in says “come on let’s go I have to buy some lotion for my mom and my sister and I have to go pay my cell phone bill and I was hoping we could go have lunch at Outback”. You tell her in your whiny boyfriend voice ” but I wanna play a game”. You see the vein shoot up in her forehead because some clown she used to date blah blah blah or her brother blah blah blah. Now mind you I have broken up with at least four girls because of this situation and am about to do it again.

She tells you that what you are doing is unproductive and what she wants to do is actually productive. You have no response that would keep your relationship good, but many that would piss her off pretty bad. So you say nothing and hit the pause button while your brain scrambles to make her see what you want her to see. Does not matter she will not understand. You are truly with the wrong person.

Here, watch this.
