“Ladies, no more wearing shoes with 2-inch+ platforms. It looks silly. I saw a woman wearing them this morning; she looked like a Star Wars AT-ST transport tromping down the street. Good for attracting Wookies, I guess.”
— Jason Kottke
Via Zeldman, a nice bunch of free pixel fonts.
Update: Yet more pixelfonts. You never have too many fonts installed.
Foolin’ around with the CSS. Don’t mind me.
No. It sucked. Back with the old one.
You know, the more I think about it, the more I realize that I could probably move away from the Windows platform completely. The Gamecube fills my gaming needs quite satisfactory — and as a matter of fact, the three games I own so far blow everything I’ve played for PC in the latest years out of the water.
Still looking at an iBook. After the summer I’ll probably buy one. I could afford one right now, but that would drain my savings account completely.
I’m writing this with Zempt, an offline Movable Type publishing thingie. It looks pretty complete, but I’ve just never liked writing my entries with separate utilities. I just prefer the web interface of MT. I’m certain others will find it useful, though.
Integrating two blogs into the same page layout turned out to be a bit problematic. There’s a plugin called MTOtherBlog that allows you to access other blogs from the same MT installation, but I still have to duplicate the template modules in both blogs.
I suppose I could link the templates directly to a file so I only have to edit them in one place. That’s a bit too much work for me tonight. Maybe later.
Here’s the plan at the moment:
This plan doesn’t need the MTOtherBlog plugin, though.

“The problem with the French is that they don’t have a word for entrepreneur.”
— George W. Bush, discussing the decline of the French economy with British Prime Minister Tony Blair
Update: Well, too bad it’s just an urban legend. But typically Bushy nevertheless.
Recently, there has been a bunch of things I’ve wanted to write in Swedish. I haven’t wanted to write them on the main blog, though; it would get too messy to mix two languages.
So here’s what I’ll do: a large part of the sidebar will be replaced by a side blog in Swedish, with a separate RSS feed. Due to the limited space the side blog will only contain the excerpt of the entry, but the RSS feed will contain the full post.
Via Blogzilla I found out that you can tell Mozilla/Phoenix to never open links in new windows, even if they’re set to do so. This was enabled promply, since I never use more than one window in Phoenix (or Firebird, or whatever name it has this week), but one heck of a lot of tabs. Add the following to your user.js:
user_pref("browser.block.target_new_window", true);
When I check out off-site links, I simply open them in a new tab in the background by clicking the middle mouse button. Quick and easy.
