Site change

Filed Under General | Comments Off

Getting a lot of spam lately (despite Bad Behavior's best efforts) so I decided to turn off registration. It wasn't useful anyway. I'm also deleting all current users, so don't be alarmed...

I work for Digital Doctors. The tech manager and I just converted our website from a static Dreamweaver HTML-uncompliant mess to a brand spankin' new Wordpress site, and the result is outstanding. The look is finally consistent, it's easy to edit, it's 100 times faster than the old site, standards compliant, dynamic, and easy for search engines to spider. I will also be writing articles for it for our current and future customers — so they will not be as technical as the articles I post here.

Anyway, if you live in Bradenton, Sarasota (or anywhere else in Manatee/Sarasota county) Florida, you can bring your computer to our shop and I will work on it! If you live in Tampa/St. Petersburg/Clearwater, you can call and one of our skilled technicians can come to you.

Our labor rates are not the highest, and not the lowest, but there's no other computer repair facility in a 50 mile radius that can do what we do - we are the best, most fair shop at which I've ever had the pleasure of working. Most repairs are 1 to 1½ hours, but we have a max labor rate of 2 hours — no matter how many things we do, the most you will ever be charged for is 2 hours of labor (plus parts, if applicable). We're also able to work on smaller things in quarter-hour increments. Give us a call for current labor rates.

All current and future technical articles are being reconstructed into the new DjLizard.net wiki. We hope that the collaborative efforts possible in a wiki environment (not to mention the readability) will help us produce technical articles of a much higher quality. We've already managed to create numerous new articles for it. Check it out!

Fred pointed out this nice guide to Google's advanced operators. I knew less than half of the operators. (I only knew about several of the [all/]in* ones).

Bear with me while I make adjustments.

Edit: Ok, I'm pretty much done.

I use Google Personalized Home. You can add a lot of pre-determined content, but you can also add most anything that has an RSS feed (like DjLizard.net!)

DAF v0.54 is ready.
* Changed default behavior of Windows Installer checkmarks (2.0 and 3.0): they are now unchecked by default
* Windows Installer 2.0 checkmark will disable all other checkmarks for safety purposes (because you must reboot after installing it)
* Removed a few command-line switches from the XML parser installers; they should run silently on all platforms again
* DAF now stops BITS when doing 'Flush SoftwareDistribution', and the status bar is more descriptive about the process
* DAF now stops BITS, WUAUSERV, and CRYPTSVC when deleting Catroot2 (just in case), and the status bar is more descriptive as well
* Minor dialog adjustments, and the addition of a Paypal donation link to the contact pane

In the next version, I hope to add a new pane which fixes network connectivity issues (thanks for reminding me of that, Fred). I have to give Fred shout-outs because he seems to be the biggest Dial-a-fix fan. :P

I have set up a Paypal donation system. Use it if you enjoyed my crappy site or Dial-a-fix or something. I have pretty big credit card debt, so start emptying your wallets.
