One really has to wonder WTF kind of world we live in when spammers try to spam blogs (like say...this pathetic little site).  I hate to say it but it's really starting to get obvious that...anonymity on the web is kind of a bad thing.  Or perhaps we need a secondary web...one that (again) lacks anonymity.  Then spammers and hackers would be forced out.  Of course, finding a way to fix all the vulnerabilities on the servers and in various OS' would do much the same thing.

Lately I've been working with quite a few other sites and it's kind of got me thinking about upgrading poitsplace, adding adding features, etc.  I wouldn't actually change it that much to be honest, but I'd kind of like to add little touches I haven't added so far.  It's not something I look forward to though.  It's kind of a crap shoot, sometimes things convert/upgrade perfectly, sometimes they just screw up completely.

After years of waffling I finally got off my ass and made fakesites.com look like an...ummm... well, it looks a lot better, I think.

OMFG!  My new work machine is actually faster than my home machine.  It's got a Core2Duo at 1.86ghz and 2gigs of RAM.  Only thing that's faster about my home machine is the video card (X800XT at home v/s an X1300 here.

Finally got around to changing the permissions so normal people can't post links.  Some asshat spammer was posting dozens of entries with nothing but links.  I need to work on a brutal terms of use for that...maybe something along the lines of...spammers agree to pay me $1000 per entry or $100 per link, whichever is greater :)

Well, a friend of mine FINALLY managed to get their movie up on Youtube.  You should check it out, it's a really funny (dare I say, hilarious) sci-fi short.

The Inexpressible Horror!

 

And, totally unrelated, I've got these two pictures I was just fiddling with for no reason.  I prefer the roses (arranged by beth, colorized by me ;)

Nothing much going on today (so far as I know) other than the winter weather passing thru.  Supposed to be over by tonight but *shrug* who knows.   Maybe I'll even get lucky and not have to go to work.
