Two Ferris Wheels and a Cafe (Honey & Clover)

Two Ferris Wheels and a Cafe (Honey & Clover)

Hachikuro is the more endearing term for the slice-of-life (read: romantic but nothing much happens) series Honey and Clover, obtained by combining its Japanese equivalent: Hachimitsu to Kuroba. It’s not for everyone, but it’s really easy on the eyes, despite recurring themes of unrequited love and coming of age. The art (just like the music) is as pleasant as spring, just look at it.

406 Not Acceptable and Apache mod_security

Maybe you saw my YM status rant a few days ago—406 Not Acceptable. (With “WTF! WP 2.1 sucks!” appended.) Or maybe not. Either way, I tried looking up why I was getting that error, but found no real clues except a hint at a certain .htaccess fix. And I didn’t see the connection between an HTTP response code and an .htaccess edit, especially when you read something like this, so […]

He says it’s to better himself, perhaps having found the most amazing […]

PTB vs. PWiT: Philippine Crab Mentality Online

Okay, I don’t understand why people have to create something out of nothing, i.e., pit Pinoy Tech Blog against PWiT. (Backtrack: Pinoy Tech Blog is the Philippines’ Premier Technology Blog while PWiT stands for Philippine Week in Tech: Current News, Views and Reviews. A mere parroting of their taglines? I’m avoiding any subjective descriptions here. An added note though—PWiT is obviously a play on TWiT, which stands for This Week […]

Firefox Slowdowns With Memory Leaks and Browser Juggling

Firefox Slowdowns With Memory Leaks and Browser Juggling

If you’re all too familiar with the foxy browser (turned DCS mascot), you should also be aware that it’s all too prone to memory leaks. It’s the primary suspect when people complain about its hang-ups and slowdowns after extended periods of usage. I’m an unhappy victimcustomer, too.
