Upgrades, Upgrades, Upgrades

This evening has proved to be a night of upgrades. Actually, I did more upgrades than I had planned because they went so smoothly. Scary, I know.

First on the agenda was the upgrade of my iPhone 3GS to iOS 4. I had read a number of horror stories about the upgrade, and therefore delayed it for a day in order to make sure I had a plan in case things went wrong. Once I had convinced myself that I would be able to deal with the common problems, I pulled the trigger, and it actually only took about 30 minutes, and was completely smooth. Everything seems to be working, and I am really enjoying folders and the integrated inbox. Haven’t really tried to do any multitasking, but then again that wasn’t one of the major selling points to the upgrade for me. I was more interested in the simpler interface thanks to folders! 😉

So, feeling good about updates, I started hitting the WordPress updates to version 3.0. Four WordPress installs and less than those same 30 minutes, all is well on that front too. Oh and yes, now that WordPress offers Multisite, I might have to look at combining those four installs into one, or at least two, one per domain, but that’s another project for another day. I don’t know enough about how it works, or how I would merge the databases together to attempt that right now. I do like the new look of 3.0, and am looking forward to digging into the details more.

Besides, my visit to a friends house on Sunday to do some technical work for them went smoother than expected and now these projects have also taken less time than I thought they would, I should probably quit while I’m ahead this week, eh? 😉

    Botnet Effects

    Sorry for the downtime yesterday, and for not being able to explain it until now.

  • Cloudflare Enters the AI Data-scraping Fray

    As I read the post, I found it most interesting that so many customers have made it clear to Cloudflare that they have no interest in letting AI tools use their website content to train large language models. I hadn’t given it much thought, but I also don’t run ads or use my blogs as a side hustle like many others do. It’s easy for me to be uncaring about whether some information I share is being used to respond to someone’s AI prompts without linking to the site. I might feel differently if I depended on traffic to make this endeavor profitable.
