The Same Word, Over and Over

For those of you who aren’t friends with me on Facebook, where I just posted this same thing, here is a hint at what stylesheet-editing a book feels like.

Some Quick Thoughts

November 16, 2010 at 12:35 am · Filed under Misc, On SKSG, Personal, Thoughts

• I’ve been using my air conditioner again recently.  It’s November 15th, and I’ve been using my air conditioner again recently! Sometimes I just turn it on in FAN mode to drown out the sounds my obnoxious neighbors make–when it’s in that mode, its built-in thermostat measures the temperature of the air rather than the AC’’s target temperature.  The other day, this readout came within a hair’s breadth of 80 degrees.  I always knew my building retained heat, but man!
• In a hilariously ill-advised decision, I just baked enough brownies to last for at least the next week and a half.  Cheaper than buying similar products, but no healthier.  The frustrating thing is that I naturally drift toward having a flat stomach while I’m on vacation (no matter what I eat).  Only in the midst of “normal” operation do I feel like I have to watch myself…and even then only for the sake of my appearance.
• Recently discovered House of Heroes, apparently a Christian rock band (?!).  So far, I wouldn’t have been able to tell if someone didn’t clue me in.  I’m finding Suburba very School Kidsy in spots.
• La-Mulana trailer!  This game cannot come out soon enough for me.

Opera

So I just found a comment in my approval queue telling me that this site doesn’t show up properly in Opera, and that the commenter hoped I would fix it soon.  This is exactly the sort of constructive feedback I keep asking for, and it would have been great to have received such a warning if not for two things:

1. The commenter was a spam robot.
2. I just checked, and the site looks fine in Opera (on a normal-sized monitor, anyway…I can’t check the situation for widescreen monitors since I don’t own one).

Comments are always welcome, guys, but seriously.  Make them real.  I am quite happy with my watch, for instance, and do not need a knockoff Roh-lecks (spelling semi-phonetically on purpose just in case using the real world would attract more spam–I’m living in fear!)

On the plus side, I can now verify that SKSG is Opera-friendly, which is something I couldn’t do before.
