Tomorrow we’re having some friends over, so today I’m doing pool duty. This involves me vacuuming the portions that the robot does a bad job on, and then tossing in said robot so it can do it’s thing. Around 7 AM I turned on the filter pump, went over the lines where the pool slopes [...]
Update August 13th, 2011: I’ve switched over and am giving a new plugin a try. It’s called Better WordPress Google XML Sitemaps (with sitemapindex and Multi-site support) and so far so good. What really convinced me to look at this one is that the guys at WP Engine added it to their Curated Plugins list. If [...]
I have a few blogs and I’ve been maintaining them each one at a time. So when a new version of WordPress is released or plugins get updated, I end up repeating the same process 5 times. WordPress 3.0 (I’m using 3.0-RC2 as of this writing) supports multisite functionality. One set of software runs multiple [...]
WordPress 3.0 beta comes with support for a customized menu system that optionally replaces the wp_page_menu with wp_nav_menu. Drag and drop menu management is a cool and useful feature. It’s like widgets only for navigation purposes. For my WordPress blog I am using a child theme of Hybrid called WP Full Site and I’ve made [...]
Not my usual type of model. This is the work in progress picture for the 1/1 scale Hoi Hoi-san model. It’s for my 6 year old girl. To make sure that it all works out, I’m gluing the pieces together when appropriate. The head will have interchangeable faces so I need to remember to NOT [...]
Well, it’s free for a while. If you’ve never played, get it NOW. Especially if you own a Mac. Very cool and when Portal 2 comes out, I’ll get it.
After I read this article on Gizmodo (helpfully called “How To: Jailbreak Any iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad”) I figured what the heck and did the deed. The Spirit Jailbreak Tool is as fire and forget as it gets. I backed up my iPhone, made sure I could restore it to its pristine Apple condition [...]
I like playing with technology and I received an invite to Google Voice. I use an iPhone 3G so the integration is limited to a HTML5 web page running in Safari. The integration is not bad at all and the web page on my iPhone is very functional.
I’ve been playing with my new 50mm. If you liked the f/1.8D version, then you’ll have no complaints with this f/1.4.G new model. It’s a fun lens and as long as you can move around, you’ll get good shots. Here’s some samples I took today. We ate at the Jade Asian Restaurant. There are probably [...]
It reads a little like a rant, but you really can’t blame him. I’m not even going to link any of the articles because they have so many inaccuracies you become stupider by reading them. If you’re a web host and you turn a bad file permissions story into a WordPress story, you’re doing something [...]
