New Commenting Policy?
In the recent weeks, I have gotten quite a bit of not-quite-but-nearly-totally-spam-that-duisguises-really-well. As a result, I removed my DoFollow plugin. But I don’t really like that solution. I think I might change my approach and make a new commenting policy rule. A quite simple one at that: Every comment that uses some kind of product [...]
Creating my own little Portal Site
As you may or may not have noticed, I now have a second blog: haslos Politblog. I decided I’d want to blog about Swiss politics from time to time as well, and with this blog being English only and having a global rather than Swiss target audience, these subjects didn’t really fit in here. So [...]
WordPress 2.7.1
Thanks to MySQLDumper, I got around the timeout issue that my database backup had. And with a database backup, I dared upgrade my WordPress. So here goes nothing, with a shiny and new haslo.ch that looks just like the old one If you notice any issues, I’d be glad about a comment here. The FTP [...]

I’m currently really busy writing my diploma thesis. It should be complete in roughly a week – hopefully, by this weekend, although I don’t know if that is a wishful delusion. I’ll get back to blogging after that. So the blog is not quite dead yet In unrelated news, I’m sure you know this video.

WordPress Updated, Plugin List
So I just did my first WordPress update to 2.6.2, 2.6.1 had a security hole. It went remarkably smooth, considering the horror stores I read (link German, click the links in that post for more) – as a matter of fact, everything seems to work as it should again. I’ll take this opportunity to list [...]
It Starts…
OK, we’re all set I’m quite happy with the way the site turned out now. Setting up WordPress was a breeze, I found a theme that I quite liked in Elements of SEO, adapting it wasn’t a big problem – the header image is a screenshot from that UT3 map I made, VCTF-Harbour. The WordPress [...]
