Topic awaiting preservation: Tech-Slop has moved again

I am very not happy. Those basterds at my ISP are mucking around with webspace again, and there is no telling if or when it's coming back. No notice, warning, or answers of any kind. Jerk-offs. Mirroring Tech-Slop was bound to happen, but now it's a full-on move.

I think I got everything, but please let me know if something is missing.

Grrr!
You know, I don't mind them messing around, but a notice of some kind would be nice.
Next time I'm in the office, I'm going to have a little chat with the president.

Many thanks to a certain someone.

Hi warjournal,

I didn't see the old tech-slop, but looking at some articles, I found missing images. So far I've noticed these:

Hope that helps.

Thanks, NinM.
I got them up. Hopefully they will show.

Pugz, in the past, I've threatened to e-mail you.
This Jan I'll probably be dropping you a line to see what you can do for me.
Just a handful of megs and basic SSI is all I need for another mirror.

*makes note*

sorry to hear your having issues.... Merry Xms anyhoo

Glad you could move TechSlop to a safer place. Will you enlight our Christmas with your PlayFiddleLearn website or another Power Distort tutorial ? ... I've always been too curious

For PFL, I'm working on the front page blog. A very simple PHP/XML thing using prax.php. I was shopping around for blog scripts when I found How to manage your Blogger. After digging through that, I quit looking for scripts and started hacking away. Good stuff and pretty easy to learn. And I'm seriously liking it. Why didn't anybody tell me about PHP/XML sooner? All I have left is to learn a little more about PHP file I/O and I'm good to go. Actually, it will be be up before I finish learning about file I/O.

Then, once I get a little more content uploaded, I'll be going back to making PDF files for download.

Poi, I'm not really sure I can teach you much more about Displace. I might be able to teach you a few more little tricks, but you have shown that your Displace foundation is rock solid. During the Power Distort rambles, you pulled a trick that was *very* unexpected. When I get back into it, I'll be talking about that trick.

wj: I've updated the TechSlop link in the GN database e.g.:
http://development.gurusnetwork.com/links/5/

Well quite a few of us have been banging on about it for a while - I think people just need to be in the position where they need to know about it before it becomes relevant

Thanks, Trigger. I'll get it later depending on how heathenistic the kids are.

Found out what happened.
Woman has an account. It comes with an e-mail and webspace.
I have an e-mail addy under her account and the space that I use is under her e-mail addy.
Well, her e-mail got whiped out and it took the space with it.
I lost the space and she lost a week's worth of e-mail (she checks it once every several weeks).
She re-entered her e-mail and we have the space back.
Now I just have to upload it again.

Gotta go.
