Late movie last night
Andy, Jon, Tim, and I were up late last night. We thought Andy and Tim had a meeting until 8:30pm. It went until 9:30pm. We were going to get some dinner. Andy wanted to watch a movie though, one of my DivX/Xvid movies. We didn’t get our food until 11pm. When we got to Tim’s house, I still had to setup my laptop to his TV/sound system. It turns out that I didn’t have any of the codecs installed, and I couldn’t find ffdshow that I had on my desktop (I thought I transferred it). Luckily, I had an old version of K-Lite Codec Pack, and we started the movie at 11:30pm. Tim was snoring with 10 minutes left in the movie, and I think the movie finished around 1am. We basically snuck out with him asleep on his recliner. 
SlimServer 6
I didn’t mention SlimServer before when Photo Matt mentioned it. I installed v5.4.0 and liked it, but haven’t used it in awhile. That changes today because, coincidentally, SlimServer has been upgraded to v6 as of yesterday (according to the changelog). I’ll set it up on my desktop computer to run from work - I think. Wait. Nevermind. My work internet connection isn’t the greatest, so I wouldn’t want to bring the whole building down from streaming audio. Oh well. It’s good software, trust me.
Packet writing software
Update: Even after installing InCD Reader, my work computer (Dell Optiplex GX280) can’t read the CD-RW of stuff I burned last night. The CD drive is a Samsung SC-148A. I have a feeling I missed something. Oh well.
I think I’ll try packet writing software. I have a few CD-RWs, and perhaps I should utilize them with Nero InCD. I’ll just have a bunch of them with essential software, plus one regular CD simply containing InCD Reader. My computer at work doesn’t have a CD burner, so I could bring files from home that might take forever to download from work. If anything, updating Windows XP by grabbing downloads take forever - even if SP2 is on the network.
Happy Easter
Happy Easter! Reflect, remember, and enjoy with your families and friends.
Google Movie operator
I didn’t know about the Google adding a movie operator. That’s pretty cool! I wonder how I can get them to add a Screen It link, in addition to a link to the IMDB.
Wow I’m tired!
Edit: Linking to my crazy picture because I think I was scaring people: See crazy-tired Bryan
I feel as bad as I look. Yeah, in my case, that must be pretty bad. What’s worse than one hour of driving? One hour of driving in stop-and-go traffic. At least work was okay and lunch was good.
Too redundant?
If I get too redundant, let me know somehow so I don’t annoy you any further.
RSS feeds on separate subdomain
The entry feeds now work for RSS 2.0, RSS 0.93, and Atom 0.3 with nice URLs. Change them this last time, and I won’t touch them for awhile. The comments RSS feed is a different story, I’m still working on that. Thanks for putting up with me, and thanks to Kaf for helping me out. Now I can see how much bandwidth RSS feeds use up compared to visiting the actual site - considering everyone switches to the new feed URL.
Tagging within WordPress
MtDewVirus turns to tagging, as opposed to using categories. If it’s really that simple, I’ll scratch all my categories, except for Asides and General, and tag all my posts. Wait, did he tag all his posts? All the way back to November 2003, yikes!
Separate subdomain for RSS feeds almost
I’m one step closer to having the feeds working on another subdomain. I’m currently linking directly to the files, but hopefully I can get the correct rewrite rules so they’re neat like everything else. Please visit the syndication page and use the new URLs - until I’ll post again that they’re all done. Thanks! (By the way, Kafkaesquí has been great in helping me. If you can finish it off and let me know what else needs to be fixed, I’d appreciate it. Just go to the forum thread.)
