Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

The site won't remember my login. I thought it might be an issue with my work computer, but I'm having the same thing happen now that I'm home.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Did this just start, MG?

Try changing it to not remember you, log out, log back in again and tell it to remember you.

If it doesn't work, that'll help with troubleshooting.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

MG, because you were signed into my computer this weekend, there's a chance that that got changed from Yes to No somehow. That happened to someone else who used my computer a while back.

Perkins - bing, bing, bing. I didn't even check that cause I'm a dork.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How hard would it be to change the html title of the message center, to add the number of unread posts at the end?

For example, currenty the title of Bloglines is

Bloglines | My Feeds (12)

telling me at a glance to Firefox tab for that page that I have 12 unread blog posts on Bloglines.

Not a big deal, but it'd be nice to have if this was an easy thing to do.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

At the time the header is generated, the code doesn't know how many posts are unread. In fact, the page never knows--the thread titles (with unread counts) are returned to it as text from another function.

So there'd be more tweaking than might first seem required.

Yeah, I was afraid of that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Architecturally, there's more integrity in assembling the HTML in just one place--it's kinda cheating to put it together in three, like it currently works.

A streamlining job, while nowhere near imminent, is probably a good idea.

Weren't we able to put <table>s inside posts at some point?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

We still are, AFAIK.

Let's see...
