HPR4597: UNIX Curio #2 - fgrep

Hosted by Vance on 2026-03-17

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. This series is dedicated to exploring little-known—and occasionally useful—trinkets lurking in the dusty corners of UNIX-like operating systems.

Hosted by Ken Fallon on 2026-03-16

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. We’ll explain why we’re doing it, what it is, and cover some useful tools along the way. I’ve been watching movies recommended to me by my colleagues.

HPR4592: Happy by shower # 2

Hosted by Antoine on 2026-03-10

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. I also happen to be happy when I see my dogs well. They’re both a little old and have had grave sicknesses. One, the girl, is taking medication because of a problem, maybe on the spine, that interferes with walking, but in general both her and the little white male (who almost died because of stone in the ureter at around the pandemic) are toda...
