This Space Intentionally Left Blank: Oldie But Goodie

Oldie But Goodie

I bitched about RPGs in a previous entry, so it's only fitting that I dig around and find this link. If you've seen it before then oh well, if you haven't then enjoy.

The Grand List Of Console Role Playing Game Clichés

I don't even play role playing games, and most of those sound familiar.

I'm not surprised.

A lot of them I remember from playing role playing games in the early days of the Super Nintendo, so they're fairly well travelled clichés.

I laughed so hard. I wanted so bad to go back and play all the old classics. they dont make rpgs like they used to. But I dont play RPG's during the 8 months im in school, for what should be obvious reasons.

I want to dig out Chrono Trigger and play through it a few more times. I never did finish my quest to get all the endings.

Of course, given the amount of work I have and the amount of unfinished games I still have left to play, I probably shouldn't be doing that.

I'm not sure why, but Epiphany can't reach the stylesheet that defines how the blog entries look. This happened just recently, perhaps on Sunday or Saturday.

It works in both Opera and Firebird, though, so it might just be an Epiphany-can't-cope thing.

A screenshot of how it looks is here.

Hmmmm... I recently changed the stylesheet files around, it was in three parts and is now down to two. (There's a reason for it.)

I'll check the logs, see if it's trying to get those files.

Ok, this is odd.

I went through my logs, in the past couple of days Epiphany has requested a total of 2 stylesheets.

One is styles-comment.css, which is related to the comments popup and the individual archive pages, and the other is related to our friendly neighbourhood activism page.

No references to styles-index.css (the stylesheet that contains the index and monthly archive specific items) or styles-generic.css (contains items used across all pages). I'm puzzled.

That is odd, especially since I manually viewed the source of both stylesheets, yesterday.

But, apparently, all I needed to do was refresh the page. It must have cached the stylesheet, and then forgot to use it.

(that means it's fixed)
