Layout problems

There are some annoying broken things in this layout. The search bar hasn’t been working for the last couple of weeks, and if you go to an entry page that has a short body (like any of the asides) then the inline sidebar becomes inaccessible because of the way the CSS layers are set up. Ideally, the author for Redoable will come out with a new version that fixes all these bugs, but since his last post about it was some six months ago (when WP 2.3 had just come out) I’m not exactly holding my breath. I’m OCD enough about these kinds of problems to want to just change the layout entirely, but at the same time I’ve grown quite attached to this one. Plus I put a damn lot of hard work into it, trying to get it to play nicely with my plugins and WP itself (since it’s no longer compatible with, like, anything). Augh.

EDIT 05/02/2008: I spent my entire day working on this freaking layout instead of studying for my soc class. It’s just a CSS edit based off of K2. I don’t know enough code anymore to be able to make a fully fledged layout by myself. There are still a lot of problems but I’m too tired and sore to work on this layout anymore.

The first Eva movie has finally been pirated. DVD-quality rip complete with sub track. I downloaded it myself and watched parts of it, so rest assured, it’s the real thing. Excuse me as I wet myself with glee.

Yes. Exactly. I don’t know which one is me in that comic, Gabe or Tycho. Or maybe the ice cream man.

It’s been a while since I wrote an aside. Anyway, this is super incredibly old news to everyone else, but I only discovered today that Square Haven is dead. I really am quite upset about this, which is stupid since it’s been closed for months now and I didn’t even notice. Way to be observant, fool.

“A stunning new report just issued by the Bush administration finds that for under 2 cents a day per household, Americans could get 300 gigawatts of wind by 2030. The report doesn’t mention that this would require adopting policies the Bush administration opposes. But that’s what elections are for.”

Myanmar officials would rather chase around a US reporter to make him shut up about the deplorable aftereffects of Nargis than actually do something about the fucking situation. This is the cherry on top of all the other bullshit that’s been going on down there.

Oh yeah, and there’s another storm on the way.

I scrapped the old WP idea and decided to resurrect ampersands this way. Much thanks to the husbife who puts up with my insufferable hiatuses.

This is kind of old news but I didn’t find it until today: the FFRPG core rulebook has finally been completed. Now I just have to get a crew together… or try and drag my old friends together to play. Hm. I wonder which will be more difficult.

Eight teenagers charged in Internet beating have their day on the Web. I really don’t know what to say about this, even though as soon as I read the heading I knew there was some… relevance to my own life. I saw the video on the news, and it’s as disturbing as you’d expect it to be.
