So I put it back up. All of the media links are probably broken, but Web 2.0 is all about text anyways, right? Oh well. Maybe I’ll go through and delete old crappy posts and get the media stuff working again. Now that’d be a trick!

Hopefully things go well. Obviously, backups will be used for not only the file system but for the database as well.

Reasoning behind this? Clean install, less muck, and I want to take advantage of the ‘new’ multi-site feature that 3.0 brought from WP Mu without having to fuss with wrecking everything. Hopefully importing everything is easier than just enabling the blog network and calling it good.

There will be a new post when things go up again. Until then.. this blog is afk.

Thought it was time for a change, since I can.

Snow script found via http://www.altan.hr/snow/.

Also, test of Twitter Tools to see if it tweets. :o

Classes started last Monday and I only had to swap one class for the same class but with a new professor and time (Saturdays… bleh!). Either way, should be a good semester and hopefully I have plenty of time get some stuff during the semester, unlike the last 4 or 5. Like on Friday night and tonight, I wrote and finished a bash script that parses and logs (into a MySQL table) sensor information related to temperature of my CPU, system, and my fan speed. Which I think is awesome as it works and is setup to run as a cronjob for every */30 * * * * *. =] It was fun doing some shell programming again, after not doing much So hopefully once I have some data, I can start graphing the information into something neat and possibly useful.

Besides that, spent Saturday at my girlfriend’s parents for her dad’s birthday (he’s only 45.. my mom turns 55 later this year with my dad not too far behind..) and got back at nearly 2am. Was a ton of fun heading out there to see them and pester their kittens/cats. And today my girlfriend and I biked around the city the bit. Went to Pancheros for an awesome burrito, and then to a couple movies afterwards (Airbender /sucks/ and Prince of Persia: Sands of Time is pretty awesome throughout [nice visuals, good PoP feel, good stunts, good story surprisingly]). So all in all, fun weekend and… NO TAEKWONDO THIS WEEK!! WOOOOOO! =D

Anywho, back to the grindstone in the morning. Whee..
