Weekend O' Sloth

[_jems_]

I'm sitting here, anxiously awaiting the end of Long Way Down on BBC Two (update: by the time I'm ready to post it's already been over for 40 minutes. And not a file in sight. *sigh*), and wondering if anyone will think to upload it quickly so that I can see it sometime tonight. Thankfully there was Daylight Savings, so my internal clock still

Do my icons! Do my icons! :)

Okay, so I already know the story behind most of your icons, but there are still a few I'm curious about, or where I'm curious about the keywords (After all, I don't speak Portuguese).

SAME HERE. I keep re-watching the clips at the website, but IT'S NOT ENOUGH.

WE'RE SO CLOSE! IT JUST NEEDS TO SHOW UP, ALREADY!

IT JUST SHOWED UP, IT JUST SHOWED UP!

I really still need to do this icon meme. Several people have pegged me already, but what's one more, right? I'd love to see your choices. :)

Also, re: DST -- didn't they change it this year, to like... a week from now, or something? Because I came in to work today at 11, and both computers had switched to 10, but my cell phone remains at 11. I checked the World Clock, and it confirms my suspicion, but I'm wondering how many people are aware of this.

Ah, I see. I feel you on the frustration re: changing at the same time, though. It makes no sense. It's actually been a long time since Daylight Savings Time actually SAVED anyone any daylight though, hasn't it? I wish we just would do away with it entirely.

Feel free to choose from my icons!

I also picked up Friday Night Lights Season 1! I've been glued to the DVD player for two days now. I'm all the way up to "I Think We Should Have Sex."

I highly enjoy it. Highly!

Tomorrow, I'll post the response to that meme!

I love it en marathon actually and see how someone can quit a few episodes in if they have a week between them to wait it out. But I've fallen in love with this show.

Except, I despise Smash.

(I also changed my name, I was "windblownheart"...just letting you know!)

I answered the meme here.

I got the Pushing Daisies TV Guide article, I just have to get my parents to scan it in for me so I can send it to you but that's not why I'm posting here.

You use Dreamhost and Coppermine together, like I do. My Coppermine is not allowing me to batch upload anymore (it times out and says its an internal server error) and the Coppermine help forum people weren't able to help me. are you having the same issue, or did you and if you did, how were you able to fix it? Because I'm completely lost, I don't know how to do php/mysql at all, and I just want my Coppermine to work again =(

Thanks, I look forward to reading it!

I found that when I had all my images in the same gallery, the MySQL database got completely jammed when I had to do things like upload new caps. That's why I started dividing up the caps into different galleries, and created some new MySQL databases. I don't know if the size of the gallery is your problem, but that's about all I can tell you about. You might want to check out the size of your MySQL database in the web panel on the Dreamhost site.

Also, you could try uploading from a faster computer, that can sometimes gum up the works too.

[wanderingdream]

how do you do different mysql databases? do you install coppermine with different names? because then I should probably just create a different mysql database for buffy, angel, bones, gilmore girls, etc because i plan on capping all their episodes, and i like to have a lot of caps to choose from (so my caps for an hour show run in the 3,000s) because it is a lot of space and you're most likely right and seeing as how I've been dealing with this problem for several weeks now (bordering on a month, actually, or more) and you're the first person to actually give me an answer as to why, I really appreciate it =D

You create them at the Dreamhost web panel. Then you upload a new Coppermine gallery to a new directory on your site, and when you install that you direct it to the new MySQL database.
