Here is the query: select distinct resource from Resource resource , ResourceOrganization ro where (resource.active=true) and (resource.published=true) and ((resource.resourcePublic=true) or ((ro.resource.id=resource.id and r...
I have a bash script that runs on a machine (called lazyguy) that is usually turned off. Every night, lazyguy wakes up at a known time programmed in the BIOS, does a bunch of processing and inserts data to its Postgres database. Then, it goes to sleep (database and all). How can get notified when the script did NOT run? Ideally, I'd ...

Hi! Some time ago I read a discussion in /r/linux and someone mentioned a script that checks new messages in IRC channel (in irssi client) and if they contain announce urls for torrents, they are passed to a torrent client (rtorrent) for downloading. Sadly, I didn't bookmark it, nor I could find it now. Maybe someone has a similar scrip...
Hello. I would like (in *nix) to allocate a large, contigious address space, but without consuming resources straight away, i.e. I want to reserve an address range an allocate from it later. Suppose I do foo=malloc(3*1024*1024*1024) to allocate 3G, but on a 1G computer with 1G of swap file. It will fail, right? What I want to do is sa...

Initially I was hoping to use wine's CryptUnprotectData function, but I realise now that wine uses a different algorithm and just mimics window's version. I also realise that only the user that encrypted the data can decrypt it. I am usi...

I posted this as comments under this related thread. However, they seem to have gone unnoticed =( I've used 'ffmpeg -i myfile.avi -f image2 image-%05d.bmp' to split 'myfile.avi' into frames stored as .bmp files. It seemed to work except not quite. When recording my video, I recorded at a rate of 1000fps and the video turned out to be 2m...
Can I change the Caps Lock key to Control and still keep the on/off nature of Caps Lock? I've checked into using xmodmap and seem to have hit a dead end.
