Comment on Netflix Saturday Processing Sleeps with the Fishes by teli

Hi Claudia,
I think you meant to say that today is 4/17 (i.e. when you posted your comment). As for the movie return substantially slowing down, I have not experienced that at all — just the Saturday processing being nixed. During the week, the movie is process and listed as returned the day after I mail it (if I get it in the mail before that day’s pick up).

We’ve noticed that in the last two weeks (today is 4/15/08) the return of movies has substantially slowed down. Is this happening to everyone?

Comment on Opera Mini Doesn’t Agree with AT&T Tilt by teli

I managed to get the Opera Mini install to work on my BlackJack II and quite frankly, the browser just isn’t that good IMO.

I’ve been actively looking for another, better, mobile browser to use. I tried MiniMo and that could also use some work as it still has bugs.

But, I’ll certainly keep everyone updated when I do find a usable mobile browser.

Hey Tom,
Long time no speak. I went to uberwald a while ago and the site was down. I thought you packed up and left the blogosphere. Glad to see you’re still around, though.

P.S. Nice redesign. I’ve always liked the Teen Titans, but black and teal is good too.

If you figure out the opera mini install issue let me know. I just purchased my tilt and love it.

I just poked around, and I don’t think you’ve published your twitter name for people to follow? Mine, predictably, is uberwald

Comment on WordPress 2.5 Widgets Bug by Billy

I’m not to sure how its exactly set up yet. It seems to use a separate script to add extra bars. I’m new to this but catching on fast. I switched from the sandbox to wordpress theme designer that this guy came out with a few weeks ago. I’m having much better luck with it since I’m used to working with dreamweaver. I really don’t care to spend my time working code even though I do have fun with it. I just want my site up lol

I truly think that the WP devs should have tested the widgets options a lot more thoroughly, especially where usability is concerned. By removing the drag and drop fancy javascript (which is silly considering they decided to add fancy flash uploads and move the javascript to other places), and requiring a lot more mouse clicks to make simple changes, they went about 5 years backwards.

Billy, I’d recommending checking to see if the themes you’re using mixes both register_sidebar() and register_sidebars() functions; if so, the theme needs to be re-tweaked to use one or the other.

I don’t think its just a theme issue. I’m building my site with the sandbox theme which has been updated for wordpress 2.5 and I loose both bars when I add widgets. This isn’t the only theme I have thats doing this. This is most likely a bug. So I’ll probably go back to wp 2.3 till this gets resolved.

Actually, it’s a bummer and it probably should have been mentioned somewhere seeing as how K2 is so popular, but due to many of its customizations, it’s actually not compatible with WordPress 2.5 yet.

So, if you want your blog to work properly, switch to a different theme until K2 gets it WP 2.5 upgrade. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. :/
