While chasing up on Emmy Rossum from “The Day after Tomorrow” (watchable, too much American pathos and a predictable happy end, nice FX (water / wolves / ice)), I found out that Richard Kelly plans a cinematic re-release of Donnie Darko with 20mins of new footage for Summer 2004. Excellent! (Although that probably means another DVD for me to buy ;))
Seems like the HDD of the server acted up a bit. The support people then wiggled a bit and I’m back up. Email should still have gotten through…
I’ve uploaded vStrip and the Wavelet Kompressor (upper right corner). The old links (at least from the imported Blogger entries) are probably invalid as they were relative to a different site-structure.
Update: Actually went back and fixed the links from the blog. They should work now…
I’ve been trying to set up my mailserver in a way which blocks virii. That worked reasonably well by blocking executable attachments except for those pesky NetSky-variants that come inside ZIP-archives (which some idiots obviously do open).
In any case, I’ve now installed a proper virus scanner (AntiVir MailGate which is free for personal use in all its variants). It’s easy enough to set up (as long as you can read instructions ;)) and seems to work well.
The net effect of all this is that I have reduced my daily email traffic from about 10meg to approximately 1meg. If your mail is among the 9meg that got left out, I must have misconfigured something… 😛
As SixApart has announced their new pricing scheme for MovableType 3 (which I incidentally read about on the WordPress Dev-Blog), I am quite glad I didn’t install MovableType.
The “fear” of a multitude of default WordPress templates popping up in many places may be well-founded, but I moved before that 😉 (and plan on changing the template eventually — I still need to integrate some static pages (vStrip / Wavelet Kompressor most prominently) — the same goes for ev1l.net which replaces the stolen log0.org).
Seems like the server move has happened… Still are things very preliminary around here (and knowing myself will probably only get better very slowly), and most content is still offline.
In any case, I’ve gotten rid of Strato, which is reason enough to celebrate. Email probably is (was?) flakey, so apologies for that. Not that the 183 virii that got bounced care…
The site may be down soon-ish as I’m moving hosts (or at least trying to… My old (current) host Strato does not seem to be cooperating as much as one would hope).
