Woah talk about a surprise movie, this was awesome. I dont know much history about where this came from but $imdb(Kung Fu Hustle) was super cool. All i can say is if you like Kung Fu movies from the past 10 years this one needs to be watched its fun! so put on the required amount of flair and sit back for some kung-foolery

basBlog went from RC to “1.8 Gold” today. I was awake and slightly bored so I upgraded my whole server (meaning that if you host with me your also now 18k-gold) Jon informed me of the code punch to source forge. I even upgraded Eli’s blog even though his only posts include “OHH so sorry been a long time since I posted anything”

Now that I am up and running a non test version i will be further investigating, the comment hacking I saw, Jon is also having issues with a magic black list referrer that he cant evade.

Don't know if the comment macros are now “gold” as well, I did tool around the source for a bit  looks like the comments about “possible unstable” are gone so it must be ok.

now even if the state of Washington wants to stop me from driving.

I just found that my favourite car show in the world is now on Discovery Channel

Top Gear if you dont know is a British show about cars, real cars. Seriously. They do most 200k$ cars but they also work with real cars. This show is awesome. and yes Jon and Eli the camera angles are what makes it worth while – its awesome! make sure you get time to watch it at 10pm

If you have ever wanted a car, your missing out on everything if you miss this show.

One thing i notice is they cut out all the fun banter, they have less commercials in UK – go download a show to get the real feel.

Hello! I was interested in your article. It is rather instructive.
open .dbx file |outlookAT NOSPAMua dot fm

see that email? it looks like someone is trying to hack something. Now whats weird about it? if you search closer on google looks like dasblog is getting pop'd with this a lot.

what are they trying to do? i dont see any exploit (yet) they could accomplish II6 fools you cant get me! -last words :-)

oh yea its from IP 217.117.64.2 core-0-dn.privat-online.net but its a crap address.

sorry for the non nerds who saw me post something new, nothing else is going on exciting at the moment just work.

Playing with DasBlog I noticed from Omars Blog that he is using the Blog Stats that I requested from the Sourceforge site then realised that its just not well documented. so hopes with this post that that can at least be on google.

So dasblog features to have Blog Stats was fixed by just looking around the Macros.CS (source script) and finding the macro

<%blogStats()%>

This macro will return your current stats (see the “about” section on this page for a example)

Another Macro for dasBlog is that you can return the popular Titles of the top trackback etc. (it appears still a little unstable)

<%popularList(3,20)%>

/remarks (from .cs) The resulting data is cached in memory for 8 hours, as popularity of posts doesn't change THAT much, and updating 3 times a day seems more than reasonable.

Note that each of the listed macros might be unstable past the hundreds of posts and appears like its still not a stable part of the code but its in there for the script kiddys like me to find. BOoo yea for open source .net

also Jon couldnt figure this out but here is the macro for the “Choose Theme” drop down.

<%newtelligence.aspnetcontrol("themecombo.ascx")%>

What a full weekend! Starts off with a evening out with Kristin Erin and Katie oh yea Fernando and his beard! pictures(1,2) then after getting home at 3am Wake up for the Family Reunion. Then a fun afternoon of floating down the river with Kadi and Kjersti. We floated the Tolt river it was Super fun. Next time just need to find the way out before we go in!  My feet look like a cat attacked me.

Upgraded to newtelligence dasBlog 1.8.5210.0 its feature list is here, if you host your blog with me I will upgrade you as soon as the code is “gold” (this is still RC1)

A feature I requested made it into the source! (pre dating and post dating blog posts) this will be handy to add content to my blog but not make it front page. This little blog is becoming powerful! now i just need community server to release a new 1.2 for my photo album and my little microspinoff site is all new and fresh!

Also you as the reader why do you care about this new release, well I went in and redid my theme finally for a upgrade that was required. With that i put google ads back on the site as well as made “change theme” option for you to read my blog in the personalised way. Some of the themes have some wonkyness, over time I might customise them but that just means more work to upgrade code. so have fun. and remember C is for Cookie.

If your here Via a search engine and you are using this, or looking for support for dasBlog then please remember to support the dev team so that there is continued progress on the blog we all use! Donate
