The 4.0s and a few other really things

slated in consumed, stuff at 7:24 am

long-awaited news: Textpattern 4.0 is a go (with a weblog that i swear wasn’t there a couple days ago…)

and Rob’s newest Textpattern plugin, rss_admin_db_manager v4.0 is out in the world, and is looking so very beautiful and works so very beautifully. i’ve gotten to play with it and it’s very very happy.

Apple’s Mighty Mouse that i saw in the Apple store today… really is making me consider, again, converting to an Apple…

oh, btw, Bluey’s “spine” pretty thoroughly broke today, so it can no longer hold up it’s beautiful 15” UXGA screen on its own. it folds almost all the way back (i’m certain if it continues to do so, the remaining holding plastic will also break and the monitor will be completely broken from the computer, which is really no good in laptop world), and otherwise would slam shut if leaning foward.. it can’t hold itself up at all. so sad. just happened kind of randomly today. it’s been weak for like a year now… after a certain angle, the monitor would just fall backwards. but it could still hold itself mostly up at the time. not anymore. :-/
i’ll have to figure something to deal with this tomorrow. quite urgent.

  1. Maybe a neck brace would be appropriate, at least until a doc can take a look at BBB’s vertebrae.

  2. it’s so very sad!!!

    i had a phone consultation with the the doctor’s office, who suggests that it may be a 3-5 day procedure to diagnose, go through the waiting list procedure for necessary donor organs, and then complete the operation. not to mention the medical fees, since we’re no longer on insurance.

    at the moment, BBB is proped against the pole of a lamp.
    *shakes head in disconcertion*

    kind of rough for a laptop to have to be immobile… ‘will have to take it in for repair in the next few weeks.
