Ah Vista, what can you do?

Can’t even unzip files… less then 3 megs of text files took over 10 minutes… install 7-zip, less then a second.

Domain Registration

Oops.

For a few days I was trying to figure out why I wasn’t getting any new email. Generally there’s at least something from one of the lists I’m on but for bit nothing. Then while going to my website to grab an image I discovered that my domain registration had lapsed. Oops. Guess that happens when you register for 5 years and then change email addresses.. you kinda miss the notice and forget about it. Well all is good again. The holding page even had a handy link for me to click on to renew my registration.

Yah for instant gratification.

Updated Wordpress

I was having a few issues trying some new things so I finally broke down and upgraded to WP 2.3. And guess what. It all works better now.

Gallery is back up

Fugu — Wed, 17 Oct 2007 22:44:25 +0000

Well it’s only been a year since the last post. No time at all eh?

Learned a bit more about configuring linux servers so got the gallery processing back operational so more up to date photos of the kiddo will follow shortly.

Also a bit of a test to the Facebook blog update utility.

We have new web server!

Fugu — Thu, 30 Nov 2006 22:31:30 +0000

Yeeha! So the new web server is finally up and running. You’ll notice a faster response from all the web pages. Basically I now have my own new dedicated box. So now I have to go and explore my new toy and start setting things up right again. There were a few issues during the porting of the old data from the old server so we might have lost a few things but nothing critical.

Course this means now I can start updating baby images again and working on some new forums.

I did what laste night?

Apparently I am now the proud owner of tickets to the Bare Naked Ladies concert here on Febuary 1st, 2007. And by tickets I mean a private booth. And by that I mean I get to take 14 of my closest friends to the concert where they supply food and drink for the evening.

Are you one of my closest friends? Prove it! Battle to the death!

You named her what?

Fugu — Fri, 15 Sep 2006 18:43:02 +0000

Well we have finally decided on a first name for our little baby girl.

Lara.

Yes like in Lara Croft. And I’m only saying that so you can pronounce it right. It would be no fun if we gave her a name easier to pronounce then mine ;-)

We’re still owrking on her middle name. It’ll be something chinese.

Can’t find the Pictures?

Fugu — Fri, 08 Sep 2006 23:34:38 +0000

Lazy sods. Apparently some people can’t seem to find the baby pictures. Guess I should make the link on the menu bar bigger to the “Main Gallery“ which of course contains ALL my picture galleries ;-)

Guess I could have just posted a link to it directly. But that would be too easy.
