adding it too the list. Either myself or can do sub transfers at the moment.

I haven't found anyone to take it.

I could generate an alt - but I'm usually opposed to that sort of thing. The subs "need" to exist (as much as anything here needs to exist) but that's really the only reason I made some of them. I'm not actually all that into movies - I just wanted to submit a movie.

It's probably best that I just wait until I find someone interested in taking it over and then asking for the transfer. I do want a programming sub, so someone should make them. I don't care about ownership, I care about being able to post content.

Make sense?

Also, as you know, time is really limited. Still, I'm trying to get you some stuff that's fun to read.

I'm still going to do the Sunday Poaler Bears Learn thread - just to see where it goes. I've got this week's ready to roll. I'll keep trying to change the format until it either catches on or I give up. But, I'll keep at it for a while. I didn't do one last week, 'cause it was a holiday weekend and I'm super busy.

I pretty much suck at being retired. ;-)

want me to transfer it to me I believe I can do that and I'll wait for someone to claim it. I've been really enjoying the guitar posts. Despite the fact I don't know how to play but I really want to learn. You do in fact suck at being retired. Someday I hope to also suck at being retired. This weekend I am deploying a server to keep more regular local backups of the poals db. Right now I've got daily but I want to get it up to hourly. So I have this dell T610 thats been sitting in my office for 3 months or so its even got 24gb of ram! and dual procs. So I'm rolling it out and thats all its going to do for now. Okay I'm rambling the point is I could transfer the sub to a dummy account or my account. If you want me to free up your sub limit. Okay I better go do the canary before the day is out.

Syncing DB backups can be tricky - good luck! Are you going to cache and lock it - or just pull it down live?

And, I'm good for now - but I do really, really want a programming sub. Right now, I stick them in Geek, but I want that to not be about just programming. I figure a dedicated programming sub will work best.

I enjoy writing the guitar stuff. I learned how to schedule stuff and that makes it so much easier. Before, I was trying to time my writing and publishing it right after that. Now, I have the whole day to work on the next day's stuff. So, I'm a lot more prolific.

At the same time, I impose a rule. I can't submit content exclusively from my domain. In my head, that'd be spam! So, it means I have to submit stuff that's not from there. It works out well in my head and it means I have motivation to submit stuff.

I enjoy sharing the stuff and I love that folks are reading them. I got a strange email asking if I was interested in selling the rights to reprint them (and edit them a bit). I declined. It wasn't nearly enough money to make me interested. ;-)

It did stroke my ego, however.

Tonight's guitar thread starts soon. That eats a whole chunk of my time, but I'd be being dishonest if I said I didn't enjoy it.
