Linux has a couple of major releases coming out in the not so far off future and of course, being Ubuntu and Mint it has me a bit excited. The unfortunate thing of the matter is that the Ubuntu 12.04 release is supposed to launch on the 24th which also just happens to be my anniversary. I am thinking the idea of me going off by myself for the evening is not going to be kosher with the other half, so I had a plan late last eve.
A bit of a new plan is in order, especially since of late I have had a little bit of lack of motivation in regards to blogging. To be fair though, work has had some killer days on a few occasions and there have been some horse and family times/issues as well. And of course there is the simple fact that I have twice composed a blog and had it in the final editing stages when, for whatever unknown reasons, I have lost all or most of the entry. That of course makes for a flat line on the creativity and especially motivation graph.
Those who know and read know that it is an inside joke with some folks I know from McAfee that you just do not offer poor customer service to someone from the little spot in the road I did most of my growing up called McAfee or they will just take their business elsewhere. I am left in a icky place after my dealings with Insight, over the last week but especially yesterday. But to really get the full picture I have to make up to Friday a week ago, on the 3rd of February…
Long story short… we have two cats, that I like just fine and the wife absolutely loves. Actually there are three total, two of which showed up as strays and have been taken care of us for several months. We are getting ready to move and the location does not suit one cats inside life and outside potty style and we feel like, with it lacking a garage that it would be best to get to just the one cat. Much regret, but sometimes you have to do what you have to do. That is all some background, as my real gripe is with the people who can NOT read the rules that are for the site Craiglist.org and some of it is not without complaint toward Craig himself mind you…
Disqus, Livefyre, & Facebook
By Ray on March 1st, 2012
Anyone who has been around here the last few months may have noticed, as I discussed back sometime last year I may go ahead with an install of Disqus and I did. I have been running that comment system for about the last five months. The biggest reason I wanted to go to it has never been re-implemented so I switched today. The comment system I have switched to is called Livefyre. So far, I am still on the fence about the change and I think I may need to just go back to the regular comment system included with Wordpress and pursue my on API interface to incorporate Facebook comments back to the blog.
