Blogsome.
I’ve got my own domain (http://schinckel.net), which just so happens to point towards this blog. It would be cool if I could replace the http://schinckel.blogsome.com with http://schinckel.net everywhere it appears.
I have gotten ever so close to achieving this. I have made it so that {$siteurl} is equal to http://schinckel.net, using a hidden options page. This means that all of the links and so forth on my blog now look like:
http://schinckel.net/2006/03/15/coffee-physics/
Then, in theory, if I make http://schinckel.net “Stealth Forwarding” instead of “Standard Forwarding”, then it will keep these addresses in the address bar, and people copy-pasting them would grab my nicer address.

Call Me Fishmeal.: This Post is Microsoft Enhanced (TM).
But, hey, I’m fine with having to come home before my favorite shows and unschedule them and then reschedule them so my DVR will suddenly decide it’s OK to record them again. I like to think of it as sort of rotating the tires; I keep the show schedule fresh. It’s amazing how much less TV you’ll watch when you have to reschedule everything every week, too. Besides, it’s not like the POINT of having a DVR is you DON’T have to be there to start each recording manually. And this is first-generation technology, right? Right? I mean, there’s NEVER been any other brands of DVRs, right? Microsoft invented this shit, no? And enhanced it?
Wil gets stuck into his DVR and it’s foibles. Made me chuckle, ’cause I don’t know him. (With thanks to Homer J.) But seriously, I think he’s got a point.

Smarty Templates.
I’ve never been really happy with the HTML-Smarty Mode file I downloaded for SubEthaEdit. It’s okay, but it loses the syntax styling on HTML elements, and doesn’t really do that good of a job styling the Smarty parts.
So, I’ve spent the last couple of hours hacking it to make it a bit better. I’d forgotten how hard it is to examine and understand regex codes, but I’m getting there.
It’s too late, and I’m too tired to finish it, but it is already better than the original.

And then I go to the SEE website, and see there’s a newer version. Luckily, it’s still missing a whole heap of functionality. That’s a new project for me to work on then.
My mode isn’t quite ready for human consumption, but I’ll keep working on it.
