Today’s and yesterday’s posts are now over at Blogger.
Tomorrow I’ll have to see what the WordPress Export feature can do for me.
In the meantime, bookmark the Blogger URL!
I’ve duplicated today’s posts over at my standby Blogger backup.
I set that up the evening where WordPress unilaterally sprung the Friday Evening Change on everyone without considering the disruption it would cause. And then they shut down the first Support forum thread of complaints!
So yeah, I expect them to kick me out of here.
Hey WordPress, dig this.
Ever made a complaint in a forum that is there to permit complaints?
And then had some Prozacked-up eejit jump in and complain about your complaint?
It just happened to me in the WordPress Support forum.
I slapped the eejit down hard too.
First time I’ve had to skrag anyone on the forum.
The deal with forums, you la-la smiley-faced eejits is this: They are there for venting.
If you want to be the Happy Police, go do it in your own life, where you’ll get in person what I’d like to do to you virtually: kick the living shit out of you for being so goddammed clueless and obnoxious.
You just don’t know how much I’d like to show you the worthless blog of this cretin.
But it doesn’t deserve traffic from here and I think better of my readers too (despite the PoeFace post!).
Update: Look at this bullshit. I’ve just been locked out of the WordPress Supoort forum! Staff apparently likes the Smiley Police who have no answers! I was told, and I quote:
If you wish to insult, use your blog because you are not using the forums.
Well, here it is. A nice crisp Up Yours! And you know who you are, WordPress staff member.
Now for a formal complaint to WordPress Support via email.
Let’s see if I have to wind up moving to Blogger after all.
I’ve seen a new cammed version of Iron Man making the rounds.
This one is different than the one I saw.
No Chinese subtitles.
But I note the run time excises the end titles.
Serves you cheapskate thieving bastards right. You’ll miss a key point!
Now go out and buy a ticket and see it for real.
It’s worth it!
About as incoherent but more interesting than the first seven minutes of Speed Racer (which, by the way, is the first BOMB of the summer box office — as it deserves to be!)
I won’t say more than that.
Those who know will know.
I recommended a certain video service.
Now you know why.
I love the Internet!
A bunch of stuff I found using WordPress’s blog search feature. Out of 546 items (many of which were duplicated; all of which were out of chronological order, dammit!), I slogged through 280, then gave up.
eeePC safe overclock with eeectl.exe
eeectl is a tiny yet powerful program for Asus EEE PC series, it runs on Windows® and allows you to control & overclock your EEE PC on the fly.

5 Months with the EEEPC. An interim review. By a woman.
EEEPC and the Keyboard..XP..Battery…Ubuntu & more
If you view it as a toy you won’t be dissapointed anything more than that and you will be very dissappointed.
Guy tries to use a 2G Surf(!!!) EeePC as his main computer for a week. Aborts on Day 2. List of his posts.
The sticking point here is the price; whatever SRP it ends up with, it will be too much - because it’ll have slipped off the sweet spot the 701 was in. 70% of the original magic of the EeePC was from the low price point, to be honest. For a few bucks more, you can get a more fully configured and equipped (albeit chunkier and heavier) entry-level laptop. If you feel the ultraportability is worth the shortcomings, then by all means, get one.
That the Asus EeePC is a good machine, affordable, capable, useful, portable. Within reason, there’s hardly anything you can’t do with it. It’s the gadget with the best value for money I’ve ever gotten in my life, bar none. It’s rock solid, and certainly touches the heart. I will continue to give it the highest recommendations.
But much as I have gotten used to it, my hands still have small continuing arguments with the keyboard, and my eyes often decry the size of the screen. As I get older I know this won’t abate, but likely get worse. Young whippersnappers won’t have these problems, but I’m an old fart already, even before I got the EeePC.
The one downside is the short screen. The new wordpress image loading pop up window has all the vital buttons off the screen with no way to navigate to them. I wanted to load a picture of my teva’s on the blog but that’s not going to happen just yet. guess I’ll have to rely on the flickr feed to share photos until wordpress gets that kink worked out.

Sony C1 Picturebook vs. Asus EeePC — ah, pictures I’ve wanted to see, with text.
Attention EEEPC Users- Are you running an Older unpatched version of XP??

Eee PC won’t Boot and How to Fix It
How to read comic books these days — Holy Warren Ellis, Batman!!
My son Dan is currently figuring out how to sync my N82 with an eeepc running Ubuntu (just to keep up with the geeks), so I used my Sanyo Xacti.
Then I found the eeePC. The answer to my prayers.For a writer its a great tool… better screen than the Alphasmart but just as cheap (and even more portable).
Hmmmm … I tried something different in BlogDesk. I specified a background color for blockquotes. I guess that was stripped out by this template. Too bad. It would have been one weird rainbow of a post!
The Race for MY Low Cost Machine — in which he lists the points of the machines he was considering
The Winner: The Eee PC 701 8 GB — self-explanatory.
Hmmm… should I have put a Spoiler Alert in there?
Previously here:
Dubai never replied, despite promising to. That country can sink!
Yorkshire Television still hasn’t responded.
Pastor Manning hasn’t either.
Nor has the alleged original owner of the ipodair domain.
No, I don’t forget.
