More difficulties

I’m still struggling with iPhone car charger stuff, but I thought I’d post an update since my first whinings on the subject. Just an FYI that the continuation of the saga is in the comments section of that first post, since that’s where all the relevant info lies. Thanks again to you helpers!

Technical Difficulties

I’ve been attempting to purchase a vehicle charger for my iPhone ever since I first got it, and so far, no luck. I’ve bought and promptly returned three different models (two Griffins from an AT&T and an InCase model from an Apple store), and ALL of them cause screechingly terrible interference with my car stereo.… Continue reading Technical Difficulties

Sixteen gigs of PURE JOY.

So this iPhone thing is pretty damn cool. But I have to say, I feel pretty damn slow on the whole “über-intuitive Apple interface” thing. Given that I’ve never owned an iPod, or even a decent MP3 player or a complicated phone, I feel pretty behind. I only even touched iTunes a few months ago,… Continue reading Sixteen gigs of PURE JOY.

Base 16. Totally intuitive, right?

[16:38] ginnielizz: What was the formula again for darkening an HTML color code? [16:38] ginnielizz: For example, say I want to make 303030 darker [16:38] Hasukawa: 202020 [16:38] Hasukawa: I’m going to explain it now. Pedantic boyfriend. [16:38] ginnielizz: Thank you. I meant to get it explained earlier. [16:38] Hasukawa: The six digits define the… Continue reading Base 16. Totally intuitive, right?

Man, what a boring blog!

Seriously. Who even reads this? Thanks to Christian’s help, I can now sort of answer that question, but it doesn’t help much. I pretty much just get spam comments for Levitra now. Which is truly my own fault — it’s been SO LONG since I’ve paid this poor blog proper attention. The hiatus has been… Continue reading Man, what a boring blog!

I absolutely hate major updates

And yet, here I go. I recently decided that it’s time to move some portions of my site around such that they make more sense. Virginiaculler.com is going to be strictly professional, and I’m bringing on a new domain for my skincare/natural health stuff (which many of you Imaginary Readers may know nothing about), and… Continue reading I absolutely hate major updates

Happy Happy Blog Fix!

Okay, so for some reason my “img” code in my theme was automatically resizing width to 75 pixels, for no apparent reason, and of course the height was automatically resizing proportionally so… for those of you Imaginary Readers who were just FASCINATED by my Portland shopping antics, now you can truly see my bounty. And,… Continue reading Happy Happy Blog Fix!

MySQL help needed

Hey Imaginary readers, Is there anyone out there who could help me implement a pHpMyAdmin query? Ever since figuring out how to set it up so that WordPress holds spam comments in moderation without notifying me at all, I’ve been a little delinquent about deleting spam comments from this blog. There are now around 25,000… Continue reading MySQL help needed

If only…

With all the crazy technological advances that keep showing up daily, you’d think we’d all have our personal jet-packs by now. But barring that, there are a few advances I’d really like to see happen already. The first one (credit where it’s due) was stolen from my friend Ruth at lunch the other day. –… Continue reading If only…

Alma Mater Central

Here in the MSFT parking lot, you see a LOT of alumni stickers and/or license plate holders. Like, I’d say more than 50% of the cars have them. I myself fall into this category – I pre-ordered my Bryn Mawr license plate holder before my new Scion even arrived, so I’d have it ready when… Continue reading Alma Mater Central
