They say something is wrong with either the cable or the dish

I will mull and call back.

You can eliminate the cable fault by using an extension cord and temporarily placing your modem on a short jumper. Is your television working well?

Unit Tests : General Rule #1

Submitted by DeepGeek on Wed, 2008/07/23 - 18:59.
  • Drupal

Get a second opinion!

Several of the SimpleTest unit tests failed with this Drupal installation. However, much consoling came by simply running unit tests a second time.

We are trained professionals

Don't do this at home

Yes, MyDLLURTH is using SimpleTest on a production site. Specifically, we are using SimpleTest 6.x-1.1 with our Drupal 6.3 "vetting" site, where new additions to MyDLLURTH and LSNet web sites are configured and tested to comply with our notions of reasonable security and functionality. The warning to not use SimpleTest on a production site was considered sage advice for normal production sites, but this site mission directs us to control our risks and empower recovery from mistakes.

Memorable view

A memorable view -

DrupalCamp : Views

Drupal is modular. A basic Drupal site is quite capable. Modules extend basic Drupal sites with optional functionality. Enabling views makes Drupal sites exciting!

At first blush, views can intimidate. Fear of views is common; even Drupal architects must develop their love for views … and there's so much to love!

The right to be wrong -

“One of the annoying things about believing in free will and individual responsibility is the difficulty of finding somebody to blame your problems on. And when you do find somebody, it's remarkable how often his picture turns up on your driver's license.”

P. J. O'Rourke

Unless eternity is deterministic, every carnate soul has certain inalienable rights. These inalienable (or natural) rights are birthrights; these are not granted by mortal agents. Such rights cannot, by any compact, be deprived nor divested. Every living soul has the right to recall a past experience. Every living soul has the right of confidence. Every living soul has the right of responsibility. These fundamental, inherent rights are the foundations of free will.

The wholesome soul -

The world offers more than black and white — and scales of grey. Jeffrey Miller embodies an attractively rich palette.

Attractiveness is more than visual; Jeffrey is pleasantly beholding. Attractors include wit and humility. Attractors include consideration, stewardship and charity. Attractors include reliability, warmth, honesty and attentiveness. Mr. Miller has integrity — he is the attractor paragon.

Knowing alternatives -

Most people wander through life without a sense of living. Sufficient said, "Charles Shaffer is different."

There is strength in numbers. The strong are more than men of might; they are also: the meek, the curious and the cautious, the promising and the pale, the rich and the ragged, and the visionaries. There are not many like Charles; he isn't overly quiet, but there are times when his audience should listen. Charles listens to a different voice — Mr. Shaffer's voice is prophecy.

Another mistress -

I think I'm having an affair. Maybe it's the seven-year itch. Maybe it's an old flame. Maybe it's the clothes Zen wears. I find Zen Cart alluring.

Don't misunderstand that my love died for Drupal. The ready marketing infrastructure of Zen Cart, however, drew my wanton gaze.

Truth and Consequence, or Getting the Facts Write

Submitted by DeepGeek on Fri, 2008/03/07 - 23:57.
  • Issues

Perhaps distinction should be made of fact and truth. That task is left as an exercise of understanding and not an exercise in bloating commentary. Rather than illuminating all variances, consider that truth has emotional context. Misinformation abuses fact or truth.

My partner says "I am hot", and I say at the same time and in the same place "I am cold"; these announcements are merely truths and the fact that the temperature is 290 Kelvin is not relevant. Even constantly at 290 Kelvin, my partner will complain of being too cold during waking hours and too hot for falling asleep. That both of us are cold when the temperature is 290 Kelvin is misinformation — abusing truth.

Events, calendars and views

Submitted by DeepGeek on Thu, 2008/02/28 - 19:32.
  • Drupal

A recent fascination with schedules led me to the Drupal calendar module. In principle, using the module is simple. Suddenly, however, I found myself immersed in the world of Views and revisiting the Content Construction Kit (CCK).

A joyful AHAH moment arrived earlier than expected. The calendar module has dependencies, understandably, with the Date API (included with CCK); a view must be configured to provide a suitable rendering of date-enhanced content types. This last detail (date-enhanced) is critical for displaying events in a calendar.

Contributing Drupal content

Submitted by DeepGeek on Fri, 2008/02/22 - 23:38.
  • Drupal

 

I like Drupal. I am a capable web-content author when my writing style is forgiven; Drupal does what I would do but does it *FAST*. Speed is nice, but I find an even greater value in the empowerment given to uninitiated, would-be web content authors. Drupal is easy to use. Drupal gives voice to everyday people.
 
 

Before contributing, authors must gain permission to add content. While by design or defect some locations do not restrict contribution, most intelligence collects from credentialed authors. In other words, authors must be registered participants with validated access. In the Drupal environment, registered participants are users; a validated access is called a session.

Madman

Submitted by DeepGeek on Sat, 2007/11/24 - 19:24.
  • Poetry
madman
do you think he sees us
should we whisper
what will he do
as he touches all

They're crazed;
They see only one.
Trembling voices hide.
We know their evils —
their priorities and politic,
and their fantasies.

There, air is foul.
That ground is raised.
Stagnant waters swell.
Here is truth;
unheeded reality,
the message we bear.
