Weekend Notes

Recently I sent an email to KUT telling them how much I loved KUT3’s jazz format and they asked if they could quote me in their annual report. Now they want to get a professional photo in my house with my HD radio and any jazz memorabilia I might have. I think it’ll probably be a shot with me playing my bass. Pretty cool!

I hacked my SLUG device yesterday to double its speed. It runs Linux and was previously getting 133 BogoMIPS. Now it’s at 266 BogoMIPS. My 2.2Ghz Core 2 MacBook Pro, by comparison, gets 4400 BogoMIPS. Not the speediest device but what do you expect from a 4 year old device which draws < 5 watts?

    You may or may not remember that a picture of your mother was used many years ago in Sav-on’s annual report. Now you in KUT’s annual report. Looks like Bob and I have some catching up to do. Do they make anything like an annual report for retired people? ;-)
