My email is acting really really screwy. Half the "test" mail I send
myself gets sent to my old email boxes on the old server, and half get
sent to the new server. Chaos I tell you, pure chaos! Hopefully once the
DNS propagation is complete for everyone everything will work just
dandy.
It also POURED today on the way home from work. It was dry and semi sunny as I
left, and then within about half a mile the skies opened up and the rain came
gushing down. You had to go about 20-25 MPH just to be able to see, and even
then visibility was maybe 50 feet where you could just see the car's tail lights
in front of you. And of course it rains the entire way 30 minute journy home
except for about the last mile, where it suddenly turns off and it turns out we
got absolutly no rain at all at our house. I'd rank this with the 3rd worst
storm I've ever driven in. First is when I had only had my learners permit about
2 weeks and had to drive to the hospital in pouring rain. And the second worst
wasn't actually too bad, except for the fact that a bolt of lightening struck a
transformer about 20 feet away from our car and knocked out all the street
lights. Closest I've ever seen lightening and man was it loud.
The NPR has a new "deep-linking" policy (where you
link to a specific page within a website instead of just the front page. I
deep-link all the time on this site). If you want to link to their site,
you have to fill out a form in order to "get
permission" to do what the world wide web was designed to do: link pages
together! Does human idiocracy have no end??!?! (Update: They changed their policy, so permission is no longer needed)
It's almost like having
laws copyrighted so that you can't view them without permission. Oh
wait, that's
happened too.
And finally one of the best community sites on the web is broke. However
due to a tremendous outpouring it looks like Kuro5hin will be able
to pull through. With my job now, I'll be donating to a few worthy causes. Sure
content on the web is free for the most part, but it's well worth a donation to
keep a great site going. Thank goodness this site isn't too popular so
that I don't have to pay exhorbriant bandwidth costs. Such is the price of
popularity.
Oh yeah, March 2001 is avaliable for
consumption.
