That Sinking Feeling
by Nick on Mar.05, 2008, under Uncategorized
So, after all that waiting, it’s starting to look like recent snapshots of my MySQL database and downloadable crap aren’t going to make it. So, for the second (or is it third?) time in this blog’s history, I get to start anew. I’ll try to restore as much content as I can, but I can’t guarantee everything will survive. (Actually, most crap dated before February should make it…should I choose to restore it.)
Expect me to get a new, more-fitting theme, and do some minor background work before I start producing anything new, or posting the backlog I’ve got.
Consider this “Under Construction, Phase 1b”, I guess.
Edit 1: I’ve at least gone back to one of my favorite themes for the moment (4u from UtomBox). I’ll explain all about why all of my stuff’s not coming back in another post in the near future. In the meantime, hold out as I start to poke about with the content.
Edit 2: I decided that I should post what I can. Which isn’t a lot, but it should be enough to at least get things started. It’ll be appearing post-by-post and page-by-page, so it’ll be a while, but hopefully I should at least get the majority of things put back the way they were.
Edit 3: So, I tried to restore the backup. Turns out it’s incomplete, due to reasons unknown to me. Considering the backup pretty much only covers June to September of last year (again, wtf?), I’m just going to clear it, save for a few documents I think need to be rescued. So, consider this a new day.
