Leabharlann Freso Annals of a wanderer...

So last night, I finally dug into Matt Butcher's Drupal 6 JavaScript and jQuery, which I actually got for review back in February. :/ Ah well, life has been hectic, but hopefully, I'll be able to look it through now, without too many interruptions.

For to uger siden bestilte jeg en ny harddisk - en 1TB Samsung EcoGreen F1 DT - og i går gik jeg så på postkontoret og samlede den op, tog den hjem og installerede den. Så nu har jeg en spritny harddisk med masser af plads. Men hvordan holder jeg styr på al den plads? Altså, hvordan skal jeg partitionere den terrabyte? Og her er det så at jeg beder alle jer mednørder derude om at hjælpe mig! :)

Ha. Så har man også oplevet det med. De fleste der har været på nettet et lille stykke tid har uden tvivl også oplevet at få et e-brev fra en nigerianer som meget gerne vil dele sin/din arv/opsparing/anden stor værdibeholdning med dig... nu har jeg modtaget et e-brev der ikke på nogen måde er henvendt til mig, men udelukkende til "Nigeria Scam"-ofre. Men det er meget godt gået at de selv, i første sætning, indrømmer at de lige har sendt mig spam. For de interesserede kan i se information om den herunder:

So I just made a new beta release of Language Icons. (If you don't know the module - it's the one adding the flag icons to the language selection block to the left, as well as on translated nodes.)

Tilbage da jeg ledte efter et webhotel, blev jeg temmelig begejstret for Gigahost, som jeg jo så også "bor" hos nu. Hvis man roder med Drupal, som jeg jo nu engang gør, så ved man også at ens websteder gerne skal have kørt cron.php jævnligt (og som minimum af og til), og derfor var det jo lækkert at de tilbyder "Periodiske Job (cron-job)". Det kedelige er bare at de tilsyneladende ikke kører. Og at de ikke svarer på supporthenvendelser.

And just like Greg, I had some thoughts going by one of the questions as well. It's been a few hours by now, but in essence the question was about for how long one has had a blog or personal website on the interweb.

Quick note to self: remember to check the issue queue(s) when you've got an issue!

A little time ago, Picard (the official MusicBrainz tagger) decided to stop being able to look up CDs (and thus stopped being able to add DiscIDs to the database). After all the usual debugging, I asked if anyone in #musicbrainz could help me onwards, but alas, they were only able to suggest things I had already tried. This was yesterday.

This last month, I've been living at my ma's while me younger brother's been living at my flat with his girlfriend and a friend of her's. And it really made me realise how dependent I am on Nayru, the desktop. As "user friendly" as OS X is (which is what Farore, the laptop, is running), there are just so many things that are so much easier with Linux - which means I haven't done such things in the last month. So. I'm currently in a dilemma. Should I drop OS X entirely in favour of Linux (the "user friendly" Ubuntu, the familiar Gentoo, something else?), or should I begin using something more familiar(/Linux-like) with(in) OS X, like Gentoo/Mac OS X?

Ha. This site has been in a temporary state for a good while before Leabharlann Freso was finally launched, so what Google has (naturally) had indexed at freso.dk was this static HTML page saying that the site would be launched Summer/Christmas/Summer 2007/2008. One of the things I knew I had to implement on the site before launch was some sort of spam filter, and Mollom came out just in time for me to take advantage of it. However, at the launch and the first days following, Mollom didn't really have much to do.

Today, I've tagged and created release nodes for Pathauto 5.x-2.3 and 6.x-1.1. This means a bunch of bug fixes, updated (and new) translations, and much, much cleaner code. It also means a SimpleTest for the 6.x branch (thanks Gábor!). And it also, also means that 6.x-2.x is now the focus of Pathauto development, with new features going in (a couple of things have already gone in).
