I have two backups for comments on my blog. I need to merge them, but I can’t figure out how – if I import one file, it overwrites whatever was there, so I either end up with one set of comments (several years worth, from the beginning until nine days ago) or the other set […]
My web host will be changing while I’m on vacation, which means goblinbox.com might be down for a few days. If this happens, please don’t panic, and I’ll get it sorted out eventually… hopefully without any loss of content. I’m going to try to back up and/or move everything tomorrow, but I don’t have high […]
I formatted my hard disk and reinstalled Windows yesterday. My applications are all backed up onto my work computer, which is at work, of course, so I bit the bullet and booted up Internet Explorer and went to catch up on my blog reading. The internizze is ugly with IE. My blog looks okay, but […]

Ooh! Neat! Even in future versions, Internet Explorer will continue to suck! “Microsoft doesn’t plan to fully support the latest CSS standard in IE 7.0. Instead of using well-established Web standards, IE 7.0 will continue to foist proprietary technologies on Web developers, forcing them to choose between two competing ways of creating Web sites. “In […]
My work computer has died a hard death. I think it’s the motherboard, but at first it looked like hard drive failure. So I put in another hard drive and got the same error: “Capable, but disabled.” It can’t use the HDD. I just rebuilt my work computer last week, meaning I spent a day […]
