Almost forgot this - for the New Year

Old, but it still cracks me up every time:

There’s some questions you probably shouldn’t ask unless you’re prepared for the answer

First WordPress update performed

Tonight WordPress released a minor update with some bug fixes(version 2.3.2). It was with a slight apprehension that I went about the upgrade, not least because the backup plugin I was using was acting up at first. As you can see, though, it all went down smoothly in the end.
The only thing which I had [...]

How to Improve your Account Security

As you will have noticed, there’s a widespread account hacking activity going on at the moment, and many people, me included, aren’t exactly happy about the customer service options currently provided by Blizzard.
However, to be perfectly clear about one thing, keeping your PC secure isn’t anybody but your own business. And as this story from [...]

Best Wishes to You!

Dear reader,
In that journey begun six months ago, you took an interest to my modest adventures, my reviews, my musings and my rants, and put up with the (hopefully) decent stuff I wrote along with the mediocre.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for visiting, returning, commenting, subscribing, e-mailing, and offering feedback and [...]

IRL, it must be XMas time

There’s that one time of the year, every year, when you sit down in front of the TV with your wife, and there’s absolutely nothing interesting at all, you have no real will to watch anything off your DVD collection so you just switch channels around.
And there, on French TV, as every year for a [...]

Missing another Blogging Milestone, 150th Post

Time flies. I just realized that, just as I had missed my 100th post, I also missed “Expert blogging” (sounds great, doesn’t it?) and my 150th post as well.
So, two posts late, I will again take the time to look back and see where this little writing experiment is going since last time:

If anything, [...]

Blizzard, Please fix Customer Service Response Times on Account Hacking

In case you haven’t noticed yet:
Breana (of Gun Lovin’ Dwarf Chick) has posted a frightening retelling of what happened when one of her guildmates got his account hacked. Basically, the whole guild had to watch while their friend’s account as well as their guild bank got stripped bare for several hours, powerless.
When a GM finally [...]

Be Aware: the van Damme Ad explained to non-French speakers

Over at Warlock Therapy, Jagoex was puzzled at the French “What’s your game” commercial featuring Jean-Claude van Damme.
And there’s probably good reason for that. To the international viewer, van Damme is probably just that Belgian martial arts actor made famous by Bloodsport who then went on to star in worse and worse movies. His [...]

Nothing about Activision / Blizzard

Pre-empting the questions: Yes, I noticed. Similarly to Death Knight, I have nothing to say on the matter for the time being. It’s way too early to do anything but waste virtual air over this.
However, this isn’t the first time Blizzard Entertainment has changed hands since before they even released Warcraft 1. Through several changes [...]

Taking a Stand against Gold Selling

I have spent a couple of hours here and there leveling my wee little mage (now level 17), and since I had the absolutely brilliant idea to name that tool with the letter ‘A’, I get an average of 5-8 blind invites from level 1 warriors per hour.
Handling with the hassle of it through automation [...]
