Yes, it’s August Moon (I know– it’s September now but oh well). This means it is the fullest moon of the year. I took some pictures (and slightly edited the coloring, etc. in Photoshop, because it really does look cooler that way!).
Yue bing (moon cake) is good. Really good.
Well, I also took a screenshot from One Piece… since One Piece really is that good…
So.
I’m using Mozilla Thunderbird now, for both RSS feeds and email. It’s actually pretty nice. I installed it a couple of days ago. Here’s what its project page has to say about it:
Mozilla Thunderbird is a redesign of the Mozilla mail component. Our goal is to produce a cross platform stand alone mail application using the XUL user interface language. Our intended customer is someone who uses Mozilla Firefox (or another stand alone browser) as their primary browser and wants a mail client based on mozilla that “plays nice” with the browser. In addition, by focusing solely on stand alone mail, we believe we can make some dents in the overall footprint and performance of the mail client by removing components and chrome we don’t need. On top of that, the UI becomes much cleaner as a stand alone application as opposed to being part of the mozilla suite.

This is some sort of temporary notice. Don’t forget to read the post below this though, since the last post before this really is much better than this one.
Well, I installed the PHP port of Markdown 1.0, and you’re going to notice some weird problems with blockquotes in earlier posts. I did decrease the text size for blockquotes, but you’ll notice nested blockquotes will have even smaller size. This is due to my lack of CSS knowledge.
When I installed Markdown, all the blockquote text got really big, acting as if there was no CSS for the <p> and </p> tag, which there isn’t anymore for blockquotes unless I manually add them in, so I took the easy way out with CSS and added the line font: 77%/127% 'Lucida Grande', 'Lucida Sans Unicode', Verdana, sans-serif; for the blockquote CSS tag. I should fix this by adding a <p> and </p> tag in previous blockquotes, but I have to eat dinner now.
Sorry for any inconveniences in reading the previous posts.
