Less random crashing, please?
Adobe Labs – Adobe Flash Player 10.1: “Global error handling
The new global error handler enables developers to write a single handler to process all runtime errors that weren’t part of a try/catch statement. Improve application reliability and user experience by catching and handling unexpected runtime errors and present custom error messages.”
The West is at it again. Appeasement, I guess it’s sort of our thing. I mean, why not try it again? It worked so well for Chamberlain with Hitler. Just ask the Polish. Does the term “existential conflict” have any meaning to the various governments of the West? I’m beginning to think that it doesn’t.

So, I found this in my drafts (no, don’t ask how many drafts I have). While it’s relatively old, it still mildly amuses me. Just ignore the random links at the end of the post…though I might comment on them at some point (highly unlikely).
As none of you have noticed (or, more accurately, discovered), my site’s URL has changed. The new URL: http://zoellner.theuth.net/, is shorter than the old URL. While I like the new site (and some of the nifty addons that seem to have come with the move), I’d very much like my readers to come back. So, do me a favor and, if you are reading this, locate some free publicity for me. I don’t much care what specifically you choose to do, but do realize that I’ll disown you if you do something illegal…and get caught. I shall be adding a number of new posts to this site in the coming weeks. Tell your friends and family, you know, the ones you actually like.
Barbed wire on freeway signs
Am I the only person in LA who wants to throttle anyone and everyone who drives a Prius? Now, I normally don’t drive like a complete and utter asshole (though I do drive like a maniac, my GPS’s “Max Speed” function would happily confirm this assertion), but when someone in a Prius is next to me, I do damn near everything within my power to make certain that he cannot merge into my lane. There’s just something irritating about the Prius. Maybe it’s partly how smug those Prius-driving bastards are about being able to use the carpool lane while the rest of us saps are sitting in traffic going 12. Yea, 12 MPH makes me feel wonderful. I mean, how fast does a human being run? Oh, that’s right: ~10MPH. So, as I’m sitting there in traffic…someone could almost literally catch me by running. All the motorcycles happily zipping past me don’t make me feel much better either. Nevertheless, I’ve thus far resisted the urge to, you know, open my door and watch chaos ensue.

Okay, so I’m not so certain I possess a general fondness for change (especially not when it concerns semis, lane changes, and the 405 Freeway), but the updates to http://wpmu.theuth.com/ are pretty damn spiffy. So far, anyway. (Yes, I said spiffy.) However, some of the winds of change that are blowing out of Washington these days, yea, I could do without those. Continue reading ‘Change’
