@humphreybc That does indeed look strangle familiar.

@SGgrc I guess I won't be changing passwords then. I've been using that approach for many years 😛

@jennybeaumont For a basic contact form, Grunion blows everything else out of the water IMO.

@jennybeaumont Grunion plugin is excellent for simple forms. Gravity seems very popular for more complex forms.

@elpie k

RT @bradleypotter: WordPress SEO Theme Guidelines http://yoast.com/wordpress-seo-theme/ via @yoast <- Must read for theme developers.

@Skitzzo Yeah. I doubt they have any real evidence. Just a gut feeling I assume.

@Skitzzo I could imagine Google doing that if the subscribers kept marking your emails as spam.

@humphreybc Lemme know when your fancy new @system76 machine is free. I'd like to compare it size wise with my Dell. Vostro.

@conorpegypt Are you watching the BBC feed? ie: Brundle and Coulthard commentating?

@conorpegypt Any idea if they can change tyres? Brundle and Coulthard say no, but I'd have thought they could.

@conorpegypt I thought it was a standing start after a red flag.

@conorpegypt Yuss! Resumed 🙂

@conorpegypt Well that was an epic let down 🙁

Monaco is starting to feel like 1992 all over again.

@CJLaing Nope. Not going to the Thunder game.

@CJLaing This is the best experience I've had with Linux. Only minor trouble with trackpad on one computer.

@CJLaing Um. Interesting question.

@CJLaing This was an older Mac laptop without a built in webcam.

@CJLaing I recall my flatmate having awful difficulty finding a web cam to use. They all worked fine on Windows, but not on Mac OSX.

@CJLaing I've seen people have far more trouble with Mac OSX and peripherals than I have with Windows.

Logitech headset installation. Windows: plug in, curse, swear, debug, search forums, fix, working 🙂 … Ubuntu: plug in, working 🙂

@stommepoes I figured if it worked once, it'd work again. Maybe a bad assumption on my part.

@stommepoes Clean installing Ubuntu is ridiculously easy. Insert disk, follow prompts. Much simpler than Windows.

@stommepoes Do you reckon it's safe to do an automatic update? Or will you just do a clean install?

@stommepoes I assumed the software center would keep working for a couple of years even though your OS is out of date.

@jakehumphreyf1 Photo please 🙂

@tonyfernandes Good luck. Fingers crossed for you guys. No one wants to see some weird Renault/Lotus things cruising around the track.

@NinjaLikesCheez I suggest you upgrade to Windows phone 7 then!

@stommepoes What version are you on? I'm new to Ubuntu. Just wondering how long it'll be before I need to upgrade.

@konstruktors not much on the demo page 🙁 http://konstruktors.com/projects/html5-notepad/

@jakehumphreyf1 Nice to see a shakeup in practice times. Will be interesting to see if the order is still that jumbled on Sunday!

@ryancduff lol, that definitely looks like a bug.

@rhyswynne I supposed you could publicly slam people in the past, but getting the word out there was a LOT harder!

@rhyswynne The beauty of the internet. You can publicly slam people for attempting to screw you over 🙂

@greyhoundbus You need to respond to @rhyswynne. You guys look like complete douche bags … http://bit.ly/mytnrM

RT @rhyswynne: Slow Thursday? Help me get a decent response from @greyhoundbus – http://bit.ly/mytnrM – Read & RT please 🙂

@miriamschwab I totally agree.

I love seesmic web, but lack of DMs showing up is really annoying.

@zamoose done

RT @Rarst: @ryanhellyer I think that qualifies as working with… they also has some stuff going with hosting WP on their Azure platform

@zamoose Either that or Microsoft are building something BIG with WordPress.

@zamoose But why would MS report security flaws a year after they finished moving them? Azure suggestion of Rarst seems more likely to me.

@slapshotprods Please don't RT that crap. They're just scammers. More info. here … http://bit.ly/ipnqTw

@IceHockeySense Please stop advertising that crap. More info. here … http://bit.ly/ipnqTw cc @CJLaing

@Rarst Azure stuff might explain it. Doing security checks to make sure their network is safe perhaps.

@Rarst But they just donated that right? I assume that didn't involve MS actively using/working on WP.

@tyssen I use an Ubuntu machine right now. Works perfectly. I don't think you would need anything Mac specific.

Anyone else wondering why Microsoft are reporting WP vulnerabilities? Planning some sort of WP project of their own? http://bit.ly/kziRZP

I was intending to upgrade all my passwords this week. It seems I'll be waiting another week after listening to @SGgrc this morning!

I need a script for sanitizing hex colour codes in PHP. Anyone able to help? I've done it before, but can't find the darn function 🙁

@clarecurranmp That would be nice. Not holding my breathe though. Too few people interested in tech. around here IMO.

@elpie I can access them fine on http://bit.ly/14rrJf

@elpie I'm having a similar problem with DMs on the Seesmic web client.

@conorpegypt No problem 🙂

@stommepoes I used to use NoScript too, before changing to Ubuntu, and recall some sites not working correctly for those exact reasons.

@stommepoes VERY good point. In that case the approach of @GaryJ is definitely better than my suggestion.

@stommepoes I wasn't aware of that. When are <noscript> tags not accurate?

@GaryJ To put it in the body tag I assume you need to do some sort of browser sniffing. <noscript> tags gets around that problem.

@GaryJ Why not use <noscript> tags around <link rel … ?

RT @sunitprakash: Wellington, Hollywood is old hat; Bollywood is where it's at. Change the city's name to New Welhi.

@humphreybc Better alternative. Not perfect, but looks much better … http://bit.ly/lJbQLt

@humphreybc It has nasty spyware crud in it … http://bit.ly/iKSvGs

@markjaquith Similar issues in NZ lately with a nut-case declaring he can predict earthquakes. Unbelievable how many morons listened.

@markjaquith Those stats are frightening!

@kymhuynh Loved the CIA clip 🙂

Interesting competitor for @Jigsoar … http://tcrn.ch/mLXoY6

@ronindotca Depends entirely on the subject.

Great suggestion by @yoast to check response code when using WordPress http API … http://bit.ly/lJuO3O

@conorpegypt Good luck for your fellow countryman in a few mins 🙂

@SunleyNZ I remember my brother getting that for Xmas back in the 1980's!

@humphreybc Ohhh, I might install that on my netbook. For some reason Ubuntu won't install, so I might have a crack at Jolicloud instead 🙂

Thanks to @chris_olbekson I can now see all my totally stupid mistakes. Yay!

@chris_olbekson That wasn't the problem, but you pointed me to the exact spot where the problem was 🙂
display_errors wasn't set.

@chris_olbekson Thanks 🙂

@photomatt Bizarre food combo! Makes me hungry.

Some file name and line numbers for PHP errors would be REALLY useful right now.

Zend server on Ubuntu gives bland 500 errors when I mess up PHP syntax. Any ideas on how to make it serve more useful error messages?

@humphreybc I'll be there.

@bradleypotter Don't try making dropline menus then. There's lots of nasty specificity stuff to deal with in those 🙂

@_mfields Perhaps you could implement some internal caching?

@bradleypotter Yep, adding ancestor/parent syntax will fix that.

@bradleypotter Specificity from an extra class is higher than from extra nesting, hence your code wasn't working http://bit.ly/lwrsz6

@bradleypotter Line 393.

@jakehumphreyf1 Pirelli sure is doing a terrific job of keeping things exciting for us 🙂 So much for all that pre-season negativity.

@bradleypotter I assume it was the down/right arrow issue you were trying to fix … http://demo.geek.hellyer.kiwi/static/bradpotter/

@bradleypotter Gimme a min and I'll upload a working demo for you.

@markjaquith Nice spotting 🙂 It's now at 1,000,748 🙂

@bradleypotter It's caused by the .current_page_item stuff around line 346 of CSS. Redeclare that with an extra li in there and it works 🙂

@NobleF1 Wouldn't it make sense to stick one in the tunnel too?

@denzelchia I eventually got around to trying your code … http://wpquestions.com/question/show/id/2205. Thanks for the help 🙂

@CJLaing I thought I had an over-abundance of laptops, but you beat me on that front.

@CJLaing Is this for an old computer of yours? I'm guessing this is not for your Macbook Pro!?

@CJLaing Some things like PHP/MySQL (which I use all day everyday) run much nicer (and faster) on Linux than Windows.

@CJLaing I think it depends on hardware a lot too. I'm on a semi-old Dell which are known for having very good Ubuntu support.

@CJLaing I've been expecting it. My last attempt at Ubuntu around version 5 went badly. This time it's been much smoother sailing.
