My Happy Medium

The only way I could have been less productive today is if I just took it off altogether…

I restart my computer at around noon because its acting a bit wonky, and wouldn’t you know it, it was cause some Windows files were corrupt.  IT tells me to boot into safe mood and back up my stuff incase anything worse happens, sagely advice as you’ll see.  I take bout an hour to back everything up to my portable HD and lose a couple of precious files due to more HD errors that prevents me from copying them, sigh.

The 2.41 update didn’t brick my system.

*PHEW*

Rogers, you have certainly met my expectations for the iPhone. Your price plans suck.

I mean, what more is there to say that hasn’t already been said.  You are a part of an oligopoly that is out of control; there is no GSM competition in Canada and CRTC is impotent (but perhaps not as impotent as I once thought: CBC).

There are many others who share as much love for you as much as I do.  Just check out www.fuckyourogers.com

Lastly,

Fuck you Rogers. (More like Robbers…)

NY Times article from a doctor who remember the pre Row v. Wade days: Repairing the Damage, Before Roe

It is important to remember that Roe v. Wade did not mean that abortions could be performed. They have always been done, dating from ancient Greek days.

What Roe said was that ending a pregnancy could be carried out by medical personnel, in a medically accepted setting, thus conferring on women, finally, the full rights of first-class citizens — and freeing their doctors to treat them as such.

I ain’t fond of McCain by any measure, but even I understand he’s 180′ed on this issue from not supporting a repeal to being in favour of overturning the judgement for only 1 reason: votes. Meaning only 1 thing: there are voters who want Roe v. Wade overturned.

Really America? Are we still stuck on this shit again?

FUCK YOU!

Get that fucking POS Safari shit out of here. Stop trying to scam that shit onto my computer.

Apple software update was nagging me again recently so I did it just cause I needed to use iTunes recently and lo and behold, this is what I get after the update was complete. (Note the lovely description error.)

That’s fucking low Apple, this is not a software update by any means.

I’m not the first to talk bout it, I and many other people noticed it when it first started happening, see here, here, and here. I’m just surprised they were STILL trying to pull this shit.

Give it a rest Jobs, this shit does nothing but piss off your users.

So…

Yeah…

Today has been an eventful day for my site.  In the span of 10 hours, I’ve managed to:

1. Delete my useless and defunct forum
2. Deleted the forum’s database
3. Realize my blog was using the same database as my forum (bad BAD danny!)
4. Emailed Dreamhost support about my problem
5. Get a response from Dreamhost to just click on the big MySQL Recycle Bin button (I’m fregen blind…)
6. Restored my deleted database
7. Exported my blog tables after having learned my lesson
8. Upgrade WordPress from 1.5 to 2.5
9. Get punished for my laziness in upgrading by having my blog completely busted; I can’t even log in as the administrator
10. Restore the backup of my blog
11. Drop my jaw in shock as the backup was just as broken (this I genuinely did not mess up on, the upgrade is an automated script and that fucked up the backup)
12. Create a new database and imported my blog tables (phew!)
13. Point my old blog to new database and login successfully (BOOYAH!  Hope is not lost!)
14. Install WP 2.5 as a new install with a new database
15. Manually SQL-fu the shit out of the old data to import into the new database
16. Discover all the counters are off after imports
17. Fix counter bugs and miscellaneous bugs
18. Write this post

This is the most I’ve worked on the blog in probably years.

Much more needs to be done, many plugins will need to be tried to replace my old ones that no longer work, but that’s for another day.  Me tired -_-
