I upgraded Movable Type to the latest version. It was a security thing. You shouldn’t notice a difference. It was pretty much painless aside from the part where fastcgi doesn’t work with the upgrade script. Once I figured that out all was love....

Movable Type 4.0. Better authentication. I’ve only changed one template to take advantage of that, but I may randomly break stuff while dorking around over the next few days. Don’t worry if something’s broken; I’ll fix it. Because I hate spam...

I’ve upgraded the site to MT3.34 with FastCGI. You probably won’t notice unless you comment, but I can tell and that’s what matters! To me, at least! Seriously, it’s cool. Trust me. I also made my URLs prettier, as they were pretty darned ugly....

Geek post! I’d been using Ubuntu on my Acer Aspire 3624WXCi laptop for about a year now. I really enjoyed my Ubuntu experience until I fell victim to this obnoxious bug. It took a while to manifest itself, too; the problem seemed to get worse every time they...
