• Wordpress 2.5.1 - Image Uploading crashes Firefox on Kubuntu

 by admin, May 1, 2008

I skipped WordPress 2.5 hoping any major bugs would be squashed when 2.5.1 is released. Yesterday, I upgraded all my WordPress blogs to 2.5.1.

Then when I wanted to do some serious writing, that’s when it hit me the image uploading mechanism crashes my Firefox (Linux) everytime I upload an image. No matter how I try to get around it, it just crashes Firefox each and everytime without fail. I wasted 2 precious hours in the night trying to upload images. This is one heck of a serious bug which should have been caught during testing before such a major release.

 February 20, 2008
Damn it! The hallway’s ceiling mounted light is spoilt again. It’s been a streak of bad luck having had two lamps breaking down one after another. And the worst part is, they’ve only been in used for less than a year. My, things are getting really unreliable these days aren’ they. The ceiling light in my [...]

• BERSIH - Calling for Malaysia electoral reform!

 November 14, 2007
Having recently been blessed with a baby girl a few months ago, I rarely have the time to read or let alone blog about national issues. With work piling up and trying to find time to help out my wife taking care of the baby, I don’t have much spare time anymore. Which is good though. [...]
