- I woke up this morning and pcntl was magically working. Four of my six Laconica daemons are forking. Only #OMB and #SMS are still stuck. #

- Appaloosa is fantastic. Best Western since Unforgiven. Ed Harris deserves Best Director. Editing a little uneven, Art Direction superb. #
- Yes, the TWiT Army Canteen is down. Laconica and Red Hat Enterprise + Plesk just don’t seem to get along very well. We’re working on it. #

- Is that Alex Wellen of TechTV’s Cybercrime on CNN? Cool! #
- @rob356 I’ve moved the icecast stream to its final location: http://twit.am/live – port 80 or 8000. You’ll need an icecast compatible player #
- Can I call you Mrs.Palin? #
- Palin never met a g she couldn’t drop. Bet she says “nu-cu-ler” too. #
- Did she say “Senator O’Biden?” #
- Nu-cu-lar! Bingo. #
- Let’s get a dose of reality from the meth capital of Alaska. #
- @flargh Carter was a nuclear engineer – did he really pronounce it wrong??? #
- Well I guess he did! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucular #
- Did Ifill just ask them what their Achilles Heel is? Yeah sure they’re goin’ to answer that. #
- Right on Joe Biden! #
- Joe Biden choking up was the pivotal moment. That and Palin’s jaunty wink. #
- “He is the man we need to leave.” #
- @sloarch07 So say the Alaska State Troopers: 42 meth labs busts last year alone. http://snipurl.com/41cv5 #
- Palin’s supporters must be breathing a deep sigh of relief at this point. I can assure you Biden supporters are. #
- Biden may have won on points, but I’m afraid Palin won on style. Not my style, but she sure was spunky. That will sway some. #

Justin Belec has sent me an updated TWiT Live sidebar gadget for Vista users. It now includes the audio stream as well as the TWiT Live video stream and calendar. Perfect for listening or watching while you work (or play). Download the updated version here:
Thanks, Justin!

The Armenian Domain Registry has come through.
You can now start using twit.am for the live audio stream. The following URL works in WinAmp, VLC, MPlayer, xine, xmms, iTunes, and most other Shoutcast/Icecast compatible players.
http://twit.am/listen
You can use the free FStream player on iPhone, or Nullriver’s $6 Tuner Internet Radio (which I like a lot). I understand the media player on Nokia phone works. And many other phones can use Moodio.fm‘s free conversion service for listening.
