Another long weekend, another weblog post.

I think we’ve had weather for every season at some point this month. Ranging from 17°C one day, to below freezing and snowing the next day. And everything in between. At least it’s starting to warm up again today, just in time for my 3 day weekend (could have been 4 days, but I won’t get into that). My IRC news bot tells me it’s 11°C and partly cloudly. Seems about right. No plans, as usual. It’s just good to have a few days off work.

I started playing Counter-Strike again after years of not playing it. I only really played it around the beta 6.0/6.1 days, which was long ago. It doesn’t seem like cheating is as rampant as it was when I stopped playing, possibly due to that new Steam thing? Who knows how long I’ll keep playing it. I tend to play a game a lot for a while, and then just stop. Like Enemy Territory, another cool (and free) game I was playing for a while around Christmas. Haven’t played it for a few months now.

Movable Type 3.0 has started to go into public beta, but I don’t think I’m going to sign up for that. I’ll wait until the final version is released. As much as I’m interested in it, I don’t want to have to mess around with my custom templates more than necessary. And as far as I know, TypeKey isn’t available just yet. Which is one of the most interesting things about MT3. Also interesting is that they have a question about MT-Blacklist on the beta signup form. It’s sad that comment spamming is so common that such a thing is necessary. Just like SpamAssassin for email :(
