Flaky plugin woes

posted in computing |

Here’s a shoutout to that hare sitting in front of my door. No, really, a shout, as in “Go back in the woods!  The dog is confused by your presence! We have enough pics, already”. I even used the flash; all that did was give me some “monster from another galaxy” hare pics.

You can tell that I don’t have much on my list, when I’m worried about parked hares.

American Idol ends this evening. Fifteen years. I’ll actually watch the results at a later date, due to my predilection for PVR play, but I have a hunch about who will catch confetti.

Another day without mail. I’m waiting for a Pi Case, a cheap one, en route from China for six weeks now. I’ll be patient, but the idea of a home 3D printer makes sense, more and more. I know, I’d have to learn to program the beast, but that would be one more life challenge. CAD for the elderly, etc.

I’ve read that the big document leak (biggest in history, according to some) may have been the unforeseen result of a flaky WP plugin. Now that’s food for thought. I’ve had to debug this site, in the past; the whole act of faith of running your own server is like walking a tightrope without a net. So many unknowns, all willing to corrupt your site, just because. I’m more responsible than before, what with some guardian software and a firm intention to install updates immediately, but “you just never know”. I’m glad I haven’t caused an international meltdown along the way.
