I do not know if it’s just me or if everybody else encountering issues with your site. It seems like some of the text in your content are running off the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them as well? This might be a problem with my browser because I’ve had this happen previously. Cheers

Well, I do not have this problem with chromium, firefox and konqueror.

The site looks alright to me.

Lamarque: does networkmanager in
kde prefer fixed connections?
Meaning: if I use wireless and then plugin a network cable, is that then preferred?

Lamarque said...

Yes, wired connection has preferrence over wifi since they are usually faster and has lower latency.

After I initially left a comment I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now every time a comment is added I receive 4 emails with the exact same comment. Perhaps there is an easy method you can remove me from that service? Kudos!

@Anonymous, I do not think I can control who receives notification e-mails. You should be able to remove yourself in the blog page, I just do not know exactly how.
