I am seriously a zombie today.

OMG sweet! I don't know if it's in all styles, but at least in trollprincess's style, when you hover over a comment time, it tells you how long after the journal entry the comment went up, and sometimes at what time the comment poster's time, too. That is awesome. (Is this beta? I can never tell, these days.)

I am still coughing and sneezing, but mostly functional. I'm still trying to swap my schedule to nights, which is going to be some really fun stuff.

Today I'm trying to do assorted housekeeping tasks, most of which haven't actually been cleaning yet. suggestions has been tagged. I changed the "comment e-mail" tag to "email notification", because that is a better umbrella.

I am searching for the bloody USB wireless sticks. They have to be around here somewhere.

I have swapped default icons, from "offices are why" to the immovable object/irresistible force one.

Haha, because I waited too long, there was another batch of suggestions coming in! I've gotten all of those tagged and tracked so far, though. There are a few of note in this particular batch that may deserve attention from ye olde friendslist.

At work yesterday, someone wanted to make their website all .pdfs. "As an internet citizen, I can't find words strong enough to express how bad of an idea that is," I finally said, after I got done gaping.

I think it's an S2 thing, since my style [Component] does that too. At least, it would if I had S2 comment pages turned on.

Just popping in from friendsfriends to LAUGH at your icon.

(and I share your horror at the pdf-person.)

[azurelunatic]

*grin* LJ volunteers wind up seeing all of the cool LJ-related icons. I have no idea where I got this one.

(And omg yes. He was genuinely surprised that .pdf was regarded so poorly. And he was teaching a web design class. "...I thought it was a universal standard!")

Turns out there's an iconfest now.

At work yesterday, someone wanted to make their website all .pdfs.

Oh...my.

[afuna]

Not beta! It's been available a while (maybe half a year?) implemented in most (all?) S2 layouts, if you use the customized comment pages.

[azurelunatic]

I don't. Maybe I should monkey with my style again.

[azurelunatic]

Yes. He seemed surprised when I told him that a) understanding the .pdf is not native to most browsers, and b) it wouldn't go over very well.

[wibbble]

It is a universal standard!

But so is LaTeX. You should suggest people write their sites in LaTeX. :oD

[azurelunatic]

Heeeeeee.

Practice safe browsing, use LaTeX?

ewww....

If any of the trainers at work ever said that I'd slap them, and my boss would thank me for it(its good to have a techie boss even if he is the business/sales head too).

[azurelunatic]

All the responses I could think of were profane, so I couldn't answer him immediately. Chief on the list was "What the FUCK are you thinking, sir!!"

[lacey]

On his planet, I'm sure none of that is a consideration. That planet doesn't intersect with our own.

[wibbble]

Safe typesetting, maybe. latex2html aside, making websites with LaTeX is for mentalists only. :o)

(However, if you have a decent-sized reasonably structured document to write, then LaTeX will make sure that it looks good and is formatted according to best practices without you having to spend much effort on it. And it's absolutely essentially for typesetting formulas.)
