The Troggs Tapes | Comments (1)

Posted in Snippets on 3rd July 2008, 9:54 am by Stuart

It’s been a while since I heard this legendary recording of the Troggs arguing in the studio control room. The recording is said to have inspired some of the scenes in Spinal Tap. Download the .mp3 at the web archive. (Warning: This recording contains lots of expletives!!)

Dubba, dubba, dubba cha!!

This is legendary, still widely quoted in the recording industry (”- put some f****** fairy dust over the bastard!”). Thanks for reminding me of this priceless piece of documentary… :)

Ubuntu: Turn off changing workspace with mouse wheel|(0)

I found the changing with the workspace with the mouse wheel really annoying. To disable it go to System => Preferences => CompizConfig (available if the compizconfig-settings-manager package is installed) and uncheck “Viewport Switcher” which is under the “Desktop” heading.

Ubuntu: Mounting a TrueCrypt volume at startup or from the CLI|(0)

All you need is a mount point e.g: mkdir /media/ and then use the following: truecrypt /path/to/truecrypt/diskimage /media/. This is handy when you want to mount a truecrypt image at start-up or just do it quickly from a shell. It’s far more direct than using the GUI.
