Well, purely by accident I’ve discovered a primary factor in my high-CPU usage. It was unbelievably simple - Dual Monitors.
Last Friday I caved in and bought a 24″ monitor as an upgrade to my two existing LCD workhorses - a Dell 20″ widescreen and a Dell 19″ - which were still doing OK but [...]

Findings on Recent SL Issues (1.20 v 1.19 & earlier)
Popping my Head Up
I had no intent of not writing a RSS-able entry in the past two months; In fact I’ve been tweaking away at the site now and then, its just not in areas that will be noticed much by sites like MystBlogs. :p

-> The Slug (NSLU2-Debian), [...]
SL Forum Facelift - Hidden Comments, Part 2
Right, on to Part 2 (more detailed comments regarding Off-Topic Discussion, and Moderating) as posted in their forum. Not much discussion occurred between my first post and now, so will give it a few more days before summarizing.

Heading to the Modern (WebLog) World / Migration Guide
Just spent the last two hours doing many upgrades on the main site:
-> Wordpress 2.3.x (I’d give 2.5 a whirl but Fantastico is not allowing that yet). Removing the two offending lines per the upgrade note fixed the issue of my earlier attempt.
-> Upgrade and/or removal of a bunch of the existing plugins/widgets (the [...]
OK, What’s Next?
Anyone who’s been a die-hard fan of ‘West Wing’ should recognize that quote: It’s from President Bartlett, of course, said an uncountable number of times.
I bring it up because it’s what I’ve been thinking all weekend. What, really, is next for us all?
Cyan has not said anything yet, that I’ve seen as of [...]
